The downside of Autism is that I can never see what's in front of me because the HUD is always blocking my view.

This is the link to donate to the Green Party's Gorton & Denton by-election fighting fund. We need lots of people to donate whatever they can, however small. Reform and Labour will be using big money from Billionaires.
Parliamentary by-election fighting fund - Green Party
We need to be ready if a by-election is called in an area the Green Party can win. Will you help us make another historic breakthrough?

It's very nice to see two new games websites launch in the same week (@mothership.blog and @jank.cool) and both were very easy to add to my RSS feed reader

Being a journalist is sick: I just contacted a pre-eminent jaguar conservationist in Argentine with a question that has been weighing on me for ages and he wrote back right away with an informed answer.

The Twin Cities indie game dev community used to meet every Friday at Glam Doll Donuts. We put an arcade cabinet there for awhile. It was a happy, silly place. We would get bahn mi and pho on that same street for lunch. NOW IT IS A FUCKING MEMORIAL TO OUR OWN GOVERNMENT MURDERING ALEX PRETTI. FUCK.

I just woke up from a nap and somehow while I was asleep, everyone on the whaling boat has figured out we are not going to the right place.

Italian voice actor Carlo Bononi was the voice of all of the characters on Pingu. A trained clown by trade, he used a theater technique called grammelot, which consists of "speaking" in a mix of babbled gibberish noises. He improvised all the voices live and unscripted.

The world feels rough right now

So please enjoy this shrimp, filmed off Cozumel, Mexico. It may be a larval reef shrimp, but we don’t know what species or how long it lives or what it eats. The world is still full of wonder and beauty and mystery.

It seems topical that the leaders of Middle Earth can see clouds of fire and ash forming above Mordor, and they just squabble and do nothing for years.
Rewatched Lord of the Rings for the first time in many years. Still has better graphics, music, and storytelling than anything made since.
