I'm torn every time I read "Oh, my sweet summer child" because it's a beautiful line now exclusively quoted by bell-ends.

This link could be creative writing but - I once tipped a Deliveroo driver £10 through the app. They arrived with the food, thanked me for the £5 tip. Showed me their screen when my jaw dropped. Always tip cash!

Only listened to the end because it's a joke - but I'm still incredibly irritated

Martin is taking another swing at a really compelling game design. I'd love to say more 😍🤐 but he's got this self-critique so right. It's great! See an ambitious artist at work!
Some of my #indiegames #gamedev learnings from my last project and how I'm improving on them for my new project!
Wanted to write a year end recap but instead I spent a lot of words talking about the things I learned from Nowhere Prophet and how I'm making this differently this time.

Think this has to be my Game of the Year on the basis that everything else decent I played was a 7 maybe 8 out of 10 computerjames.itch.io/stealth-cw

Tonight Skyrgámur (Skyr Gobbler), the 8th of Iceland's 13 Yule Lads, comes down from the mountains. He loves skyr, a type of Icelandic yogurt.

Children leave their shoes out in the window for him, he gives the good ones a small gift or a treat, the bad children get a potato. A potato of SHAME.

On a gut level, gender and overdiagnosis panics feel like attacks on people having a chance to be happy in themselves.
I’m not smart or well-read on neurodivergence or trans issues but I do know it’s empowering to get to know yourself

I’ve sometimes fallen into the trap of thinking that complementing a creative person for their work is less sophisticated or desired than discussion or debate about it but very often the best thing you can say to them is hell yeah and that doesn’t make you dumb it just makes you nice

Inspired & disgusting horror, I savoured this over a couple of nights. The style reminds me of @indrani.bsky.social's The Devourers; the frontier setting has the feel of Laxness' Iceland. Really good 👏
