I'm Steve, a 37yo programmer in Seattle.

By day I build iOS apps (currently Kickstarter, previously Tumblr and Teams). By night I make VTuber merch with my partner at DokiDreamers.com.

I also do 3D modeling/printing, woodworking, synthesizers, and FFXIV and sim games!

Not a hardcore RuneScape player by any means but Grid Master is a blast. Getting 300 levels in like 3 hours is wild.

I’ve been working for 15 years as an animator and I can tell you without a doubt, the best fix I ever found for imposter syndrome is living a full life where your days and worth don’t hinge on whether or not you were a good animator today.

How the media are gaslighting trans people
"How the media are gaslighting trans people"
6 frame comic in two columns. on the left, Trump, Hegseth and Bondi are disparaging trans people and vowing to exterminate them. On the right, newspaper article with the same images of them, reporting what they said but with no mention of trans people.

NEW: There’s a disaster unfolding in Alaska right now. And no major network is covering it.

The remnants of Typhoon Halong battered western Alaska overnight. Homes, with people in them, have literally been swept into the Bering Strait.

At least 20 are missing. No comment from any federal agency.

The attack on Portland was supposed to make the place look like a lawless hellhole. Instead, the authorities have succeeded in making it look like the most fun city in the world.

Autocorrect just tried to change "yap" to "talk", and. No. Stop that. Your job is to correct for the imprecision of touch screens, not be a language cop.

Sometimes cats get the zoomies. Sometimes they do it in your bedroom while you're sleeping at 6 AM. Sometimes they don't stop for 3 hours. Sometimes you move to sleep on the couch. Sometimes they follow you and then get the zoomies around the couch for another hour. Sometimes this happens 4x a week.

Glad I tuned into the end of that one.

Independent comics as an industry would barely exist these days without the tireless efforts of Kickstarter's staff behind the scenes. As they advise, keep supporting all the amazing projects you already are, but have their back in the process.

Kickstarter United is on strike!

swipe for ways to show your solidarity Why We're Striking
A codified 4-day work week.
We simply want to protect the way we've been working for over 3.5 years. The 4dww has proven benefits, such as increased productivity and improved employee satisfaction. It's part of what makes Kickstarter a special, innovative place to work.
Fair pay for our lowest-paid workers.
We're fighting for livable minimum salaries for roles that are undervalued by the market but crucial to keeping Kickstarter running. We believe none of our workers should struggle to make ends meet. Creators
