So, show of hands, if I were to open up mini-comms where you pay me $5 to put together fake Gabe Cube skin, would you buy it?

Guess who no longer can play video games?
I fucked something up with my bazzite install, spent the last 6 hours trying to fix remote desktop shit (with ZERO luck), and now I no longer have a monitor for my desktop to output to.
Can't fucking replace it either, decent monitors on the market>>>

@valvesoftware.com so, do you guys plan on releasing a STL file for making our own custom shells for the Gabe Cube? I got orange filament sitting around in the house, and I want to be sure that I can say I am playing the orange box on the orange box

Twofer because I decorate both the inside and outside of my hardware!
(Yes, it runs Linux. Mint to be precise)
Also, man, I really need to get some comms to pay for printing some pixel art stickers now that I think about it.

Fun fact, I have an ASE file whose sole purpose is to contain different brick designs. When I feel like I got it organized, I might distribute the project file for free over on my Buy Me A Coffee page...

Just finished cleaning up the blue grizzly vector graphic, might be another brigade in the strewn-out lore that I cannot seem to bother with actually connecting the dots. (Not sure how transparency looks currently on BSky, so 2 versions just to be safe)

If you want a good perspective on why corporations have too much money, you just need to run a simple thought experiment. Image is relevant, read the thread!

Helpful reminder, I'm heavily dependent on food stamps and I might not be getting any next month. Help a starving #pixelartist out and send a #commission (or even just a few bucks) my way!

PSA for people looking for #artists, and especially #pixelart in particular:
I've been seeing my feed being clogged by accounts that steal art or use generative AI to fill up portfolios, make sure to closely proofread who you're commissioning so you don't get screwed over!

@rwsstudios.com hey guys, can we get a postal 1 remake where I can use modern controls? You don't need to change anything visually, I still kinda like the visuals, I just HATE the classic controls. If you guys tried to play it now, you'd agree with me.

Indeed, I've spent roughly 8 years studying my medium, I didn't bust my ass to learn pixel art just so a jackass could just slap in a prompt then downscale it to call themselves one!
I've seen many say its about accessibility, when art is the most accessible hobby there is
