Being neurodivergent means you over-explain EVERYTHING in hopes of clear communication, then get anxious that your over-explanation was irritating and actually made things more confusing 🫤

I think that the failures of the millennial generation's attempts to change this system were necessary in some ways because we're often roundly mocked for losing over and over, but we played by the rules and did everything we were told. Every time we looked like we were winning, the rules changed.

Testing out some early combo strings for Fridge, really happy with how his animations are coming together. Feels chunky in all the right ways. #gamedev #indiedev #animation #fgc

Sage loves to hunt the laser pointer. If you look carefully, he even tries to eat the dot after catching it! (I know the place is messy, I'm working on it)

"if I just work hard enough, eventually I'll make it"

No. cause if you don't make it that means you didn't work hard enough. And that isn't fair to your efforts.

there are so many factors outside of your hands. So much success is luck, and failure is not always your fault. cut yourself some slack.

Happy to finally be able to announce something I've been working on slowly over the past few months, the YTPMV Sample Database :D
You can share and find samples to use in your next video!

It's now open for testing, still in beta but I hope people can find use in this!

the buried lede here is that they made tools to do recompilations of Xbox 360 games for this similar to the N64 recompiler, seems this opens the door for other PC ports of Xbox 360 games too
what the actual fuck the Sonic modding shennanigans stream just revealed a native PC port of Sonic Unleashed

It's out NOW

Sorry folks, I know it's been too long without a kitty update. They're still in good spirits I think, and Sage is still waking me up every time I try to sleep more than three hours at a time... Last night I gave them a Churu treat for the first time, and they both loved it.

A friend shared this with me, so now I'm sharing with you:

This is a fork of Blender that has an overhaul of the interface that adds colored icons, verbose tooltips, and more industry-standard behavior across the board.

Those of you who think this take might be extreme have no idea how much damage these gangs (which is what they'd be if they weren't rich) have done to this country. Heritage has had a finger in the piece of every regressive push for the past 30 years. Federalists are even worse.
Not to get political or anything, but if the US is to make it out of this, every single right wing think tank like The Heritage Foundation and The Federalist Society needs to be dismantled in its entirety, its source of funding seized, and its existence criminalized so as never to take root again.

It feels like no one should have to say this, and yet we are in a situation where it needs to be said, very loudly and clearly, before it’s too late to do anything about it: The United States is not a startup. If you run it like one, it will break.

Stop talking about dumb rightwingers. Their entire MO involves people rubbernecking/dunking/calling out to expand their reach. Literally every single time people rally up to yell at one of them they end up with a bigger audience, how many times must we do this.

The millennial experience is growing up with the internet, and watching it go from a free, open, democratic, and eclectic ecosystem to a wasteland of five websites controlled by billionaires, and now seeing it quickly fill up with AI-generated slop.

I want our World Wide Web back.
i don't want to hear your most boomer complaint. what's your most millennial complaint?

Back in 2021, PMG reported on the unseen games industry crunch taking place at outsourcing studios in SE Asia.

Since then, the companies we looked at have continued to work on some of the biggest games in the world, without any push to improve the conditions of the artists doing that work. (1/7)

For me, 2024 was a mixed year. You'd think great fortune and great calamity would balance each other out, right? Not so much this time. Besides election stress, the year was capped off with a truly historic falling-out with my mom, but it was also the year I got Saffron and Sage. It's complicated.
