QUOTE REPOST with a masked selfie (alt text included) if you are still masking to protect yourself, your friends, your family, and those most impacted by systemic abandonment 😷

Principled solidarity is most important when it’s unpopular or isolating.

Undertale is SO full of heart! Thanks for your hard work, Toby Fox!

See tattoo, post tattoo

Mario RPG is the game that made me want to make games. I got this tattoo commissioned by a good friend, @ayceeart.bsky.social, in 2015 long before we knew an HD remake was coming. Thanks 1 million Aycee 💚

Post a meme made by you
Elsa, from the Frozen 2 movie, a white woman with blonde hair tied in a long braid, is standing at a balcony looking longingly while a heavy set balding man is walking up behind her. Text reads, "I'm of this Earth, these people. I'm tired of being caught in the tangle of their lives." (A quote from Dr. Manhattan from Watchman)

White text showing a quote from Dr. Manhattan from Watchmen above reads, "I'm tired of this Earth,these people. I'm tired of being caught in the tangle of their lives"

I made a silly meme of Episode 31 of #DanJonesAndDragons thanks to @bryceandrobot.bsky.social 😆

@causeimdanjones.bsky.social @sarenstone.com
A poor formatted image in the "Slaps Car Roof" meme format. Coil's head from "Dan Jones and Dragons" is poorly layered over the salesman's face. On the left is a poorly inserted black dragon. Text over the image reads: "Coil: *Slaps the dragon with a greatsword* This bad boy can fit so many hits"

This is getting out of hand. Now there are 1k if them.

But seriously:

If you followed me without realizing that I talk about things like #CovidIsNotOver, #FreePalestine, #TransRights, #UnityTips and #GameDevNews, you probably should just leave.

Now there are two of them!" but the "two" is scribbled out and replaced with "1k"

Hey, new folks!

Let's all work together to make sure Bluesky is as accessible as possible. Please add Alt Text to all your images and GIFs. (And maybe even quote-skeet pics to add Alt Text instead of just reskeet)

Go to your Settings->Accessibility and toggle "Require alt text before posting" On.

2 panel comic from 30 rock. Panel 1: Liz Lemon says, "What a year, huh?" Panel 2: Jack Donaghy replies, "Lemon, it's February." I'm so tired.

2 panel comic of Fred from Scooby-Doo. Panel 1 shows him on the right side, about to reveal the face of a person under a ghost mask with text,"Let's see who caused this bug." Panel 2 shows this person on the left is also Fred. Screenshot of Anakin and Padme talking from Star Wars Episode 2. Text reads, "I don't like JIRA. It's course and rough and irritating. And it gets everywhere." "JIRA" is a poorly done cover-up of the word "sand" Text reads: I think Sisyphus would be much happier if they had a big number at the top of the mountain that incremented with each successful rock push, and also if they let him spend those points on fun stickers for the rock 2 panel meme comic of a white woman screaming at a white cat sitting at a dining table. Panel 1 (woman yelling) reads, "Me angry at my code for not doing what I programmed it to do." Panel 2 (cat, looking smug) reads, "My code doing exactly what I programmed it to do."

Did my spouse and I pay $179 to ship 36 chili dogs from SoCal as an anniversary present to ourselves?

Yes. Absolutely.

Do we regret it?

Not at all!

My kid wanted me to do this "silly beard" before I finished shaving before Halloween. @creativeneurospice.bsky.social describes it as:

You look like a background character in "It's Alway Sunny In Philadelphia"

Not wrong 😆😆😆

Start of game dev vs. now (2011-2023)

(I've changed a lot, inside and outside, over the last 12 years)

#GameDev #StillMasking
2011: David, a white man with short dark brown hair, brown eyes, wearing glasses and a black GDC t-shirt, smiles at the camera while sitting in a grey restaurant booth against a white wall. 2023: David, a white man with a dark brown beard and hair, dark brown eyes, wearing safety glasses and a gray t-shirt with a blue/gray checkered button-up, is smiling under his Flo mask and giving a 2-finger piece sign in an empty airport waiting area.
