Now, they've secured a first contract ensuring wage increases and the elimination of mandatory crunch. #unionstrong 💪

The real cowards are the ones who stick with one pattern forever
Am I alone in being a 1-3-5-2-4-1??
Anyone who doesn't do 1-4-2-5-3-1 is a psychopath.

Announce yourselves, cowards!

when i eat my slop its charming, self aware and if we're being honest with ourselves a little revolutionary. a small liberation from the prison of high culture and good taste. when you eat your slop it's anti-intellectual, myopic and a self-centred rejection of art as conscious human value

single player - you're the only human there
multiplayer - other humans in the same game!
NEW! antiplayer - it's with other players, but you can't come within 50 meters of anyone else and it's forbidden to communicate

I'm pitching this next GDC

I took 3 photos of our house / pets and had an AI convert them to Ghibli style, but I don't think there's a safe space for me to post them anywhere.. hm, maybe Facebook?

Oh well, guess my gf is the only who will ever see them!

I don't know what any of this means, I'm just fascinated by how some think that you have to always eat two slices of bread, otherwise it's some sort of exotic variant
It is 2029. Luka Doncic, 375 pounds now, is eating an open faced turkey sandwich during the first TV timeout of the 4th quarter of Game 3 of the NBA Finals. Experts wonder if he’s fat enough to win a 4th straight title. President Ocasio-Cortes has invaded El Salvador.

Calling someone "overly sensitive":
- bad
- favors negative feelings
- makes them sound weak, like a child

Saying someone is "powered by the Emotion engine":
- good
- incorporates all possible feelings
- makes them sound strong, like the PS2

This is a Unity slider, I want to display its value without involving a script that has to have a member reference to it, is it possible to do something like this?
