(shared AI video of the Teletubbies eating a hiker that wandered into their territory)

Okay so it turns out that video was fake, but it resonated because this kind of stuff happens every day

I cannot stress how awesome this game by @toestee.itch.io is!

Even as a (polished) prototype, Bug Brains is so cute and compelling that every day I wasn't playing it was a day I spent thinking about it...

Please check it out – this need a physical release ASAP

My book is out! 💗
Girlhood Games: Gender, Identity and Coming of Age in Videogames is a 6-year-long labour of love for young adult stories, teen heroines in videogames and unnoticed girly game histories.
Thank you @livvy.itch.io for the beautiful cover!

Whoever invented early morning flights should be tucked into a really comfortable bed and forced to enjoy the simple pleasure of a restful sleep. Maybe then they would let us sleep in too 😮‍💨😴

Give folks their flowers

No, I mean right now. Go tell someone you loved their work right now. They're on social media just say it, it has never been easier

"They know how much people love--" no they don't go say it right now to a composer or artist or game dev or writer or anyone AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH

From bravewave.net/interviews/t...

Mo: Do you remember the first time you met someone who said they loved your work on Mega Man 2?

Tateishi: You’re the first, in 2013. No one else has.

Mo: Wow. I’m surprised. I don’t even have a follow-up question… how could no one come up and say something.

Tateishi: …

Mo: Now that you know how big Mega Man 2 is outside of Japan, do you look fondly back at the soundtrack?

Tateishi: Yeah, my thoughts have changed since I met you and became more aware of how people felt. But even when I was at Konami, I didn’t even bother telling anyone I did Mega Man 2. So the fact you came all the way to Japan to tell me these things makes me very happy I worked on the game all those years ago.

That’s what she said? I’m going to need you to back up your claim with evidence

Anytime someone says

“THEY made a movie about this” or “that’s what THEY want you to think”

It’s actually just one really prolific non-binary person. Keep up the good work
