@zohrankmamdani.bsky.social is so good at making it clear how much he likes New York City and the people who live there. In retrospect, it's wild how many political campaigns don't feel anything like that.

The world is such an unmitigated mess right now. Working on this has made me feel just a little like I'm putting something hopeful and joyful into it.

We've been heads down in polish, but soon I'll be putting more effort into marketing. We need about 2k more wishlists in the next 6 weeks for Very Good Things to happen. Any help spreading the word (or leaving reviews) would help an absolute ton. #indiegame

To our friends & allies across the globe who today stood in solidarity with those of us in the US who are angry, scared, & mortified: thank you for your grace, your light, & your empathy. Thank you for your support of those of us who aren't in the cult. We see you & are grateful.

Today was an amazing day and I'm glad I was able to be part of it. The stress of the world has felt crushing since November, but standing in solidarity with so many different people makes it a lot easier.

#Unity ShaderGraph question. I'm trying to put shine on a waterfall and need to scroll one texture with transparency (the shine) across another texture with transparency. All of this is 2D sprites. I can't find what I'm looking for on youtube. If anyone has tips, I'd appreciate it.

If you are an NC resident and voted in November, please check if your name or the names of any family areone of the 60K votes being challenged. If so, confirm ASAP with your Board of Elections. You only have two weeks.

The website to check linked in the reply.

NC Court of Appeals gives over 60,000 challenged voters 15 days to prove eligibility
The majority wrote that, even though they have the authority to completely throw out the contested ballots, they decided to instead mandate a cure period for most of the challenged voters.

As I do my morning routine, I'm heartened by the fact that I share at least one thing in common with someone as wonderful as Tim Walz.
