I may seem intimidating or aloof to some but in reality I am more scared of you than you are of me. I am a burnt out people pleaser trying to find my strength of agency again after past abuses and I am taking a lot of breaks for my nervous system. If I am distant, it's not you, it's definitely me

It's hard not to fedpost sometimes. Especially as it looks more and more like the only real solution is [REDACTED]. In Minecraft, I mean.

General rule for all game-critical UI and text: if you personally think it's obnoxiously large, make it slighty larger than that.
Kids, if you're making a game and want to run it on a steamdeck or switch

your text size needs to be bigger

no, bigger

c'mon coward, bigger!

what is this, A GAME FOR ANTS? BIGGER

Gentlest of gentle reminders that you can't tell who's cis or queer by looking. Talked to someone today who miserably confessed that they hate being perceived as their assigned gender and are agender on the inside but have given up bc no one takes them seriously. Made my heart hurt. 🥺

The first time I ever thought of myself as a girl, years before I even heard the word transgender, was when I fantasized of being a dragon. It just felt right for reasons I didn't know. In hindsight it's clear that humanity was too othering to see myself in, but there was freedom in being a monster.

A transparent excuse to talk about a special interest? Whatever do you mean.

"rich dipshit owner doesn't understand the industry he's bought into and clumsily destroys what made it good" feels less like a narrative unique to the washington post and more like the music that's been playing in the background of all our lives for at least 40 years

I may have a stroke.

Someone said protests don’t belong in church and it took every ounce of self-censure within me not to say “Deborah you are literally a Protestant.”

A PROTESTant.

I assume they think Luther was nailing Bed, Bath, & Beyond coupons to the door.

AI will not revolutionize video games. what will revolutionize video games is putting more furry BBWs in them. but precious few developers are wise enough to see this. i'm doing my part
