Help us give you the best version of this game. We're almost there!

look at this stupid baby in his little onesie. he NEEDS your credit card info so he can take the onesie off !!!
UPDATE: Blythe is now home and safe! Thank you all so, so deeply for saving his life.

As of now, we only have to worry about paying off a Care Credit line and other misc. costs (like gas for multiple vet trips, his pain meds, more food, etc).

Anything helps. Thank you!

So much money in video games and so little of it actually going to developers.

Alright, we are live and currently sitting in the vet's office.

We need $500 down for surgery to start. The sooner that happens, the sooner we can go home and sleep before picking him up. Thank you

There's an extended video on Benedikt Pleyer's YT channel (Nomadic Nostoc) where he talks a bit more about them in context of their local ecology that's worth watching.

The natural world is filled with so many delightful surprises, at all scales.

I hope these sea fireflies brighten your day. 🧪🌊
A creature glowing brighter than a glow stick! What is Vargula hilgendorfii?

Benedikt Pleyer/Nomadic Nostoc filmed these tiny ostracods collected from the beach of a Japanese island.

Vargula hilgendorfii live in marine sand & emit a mix of luciferase & luciferin that lights up to deter predators.

The same chemicals produce firefly glow.

Okay, I'll make a thread of 50 indie games which I'll add to over the week, staring with.

1. Carimara

Play as a little goblin creature summoned by a witch to investigate what's haunting her cottage, it's a creepy bite-size mystery akin to the Frog Detective games, and has gorgeous visuals.

i cant wait until rebecca announces the next warframe expac is just 12 straight hours of loid and albrecht making out sloppy style in sanctum anatomica. truly avant-garde. visionary. geoff keighley will evaporate into a fine dust, saving video games forever

at a certain level of any creative or intellectual collaborative job the main task is sin-eater: to fix what you can and get blamed for what you can’t, secretly knowing how much worse it would have been if you hadn’t done what you did.

i need to sleep for thirty slutty, slutty years
then worry about if loid and albrecht are surviving the old peace. then calm down if they are

The main thing the HORSES discourse has made me think is that no self-respecting Italian should be forced to abide by the decency standards of the American media landscape

So tonight, our cat was admitted to the emergency vet hospital for a bowel obstruction. Tomorrow, we are most likely driving him to a farther-out clinic to get surgery.

I'm going to post a GFM fundraiser for him once we know further information. Things aren't great
