ICD-10 Code W54 is now available for pay-what-you-want - if you read it, I'd love to hear your thoughts.
Robin M. Rondel@sadslut.club · last mo.ICD-10 Code W54 is my entry to the Violence jam hosted by @lukegearing.bsky.social. It's about an illegal teenage dog fighting night in Forres, Scotland and is, perhaps, my grimmest work yet. Photos taken with @moodcamera.bsky.social.

The more I play games this year, the more I think about how much the situation described subordinates the systems underlying it. In play situations take on a greater reality than the systems used to describe them, but the lens of game design is often way more focused on system than situation.
Everyone should pay blark for having created leathers, it is a work of incredible beauty and insight.
blark@blarkblarkblark.bsky.social · last mo.Leathers raised about half its funding goal for @leatherarchives.bsky.social. regardless, im proud of this. Ive had ppl reach out to me in my city and beyond to express their admiration for this game, and thats really what creating anything is about :') halforc.itch.io/leathers

I need help. I've had depression most of my life, but the last 2 years have been especially difficult. I need therapy, but it's expensive, so I'd like to sell 5 portraits of yourselves or your favorite characters for 30€ 😔🙏
I dim the lights, and think about you. Spend sleepless nights, and think about you. You said you loved me, or were you just being kind? Or am I losing my mind?
love when my cat (girlfriend) brings me a dead mouse (some white guy YouTuber I've never heard of) and starts meowing at me (complaining about how wrong he is) until I pet her (untranslatable t4t idiom). Love her so much (love her so much), thank you for sharing (untranslatable t4t idiom).
The appropriate reparations for centuries of extractive colonialism is freely providing the resources — technology, tools, money — to build out local renewable energy infrastructure globally, so that every human community has access to energy ample to meet all their needs so they can thrive.

Covenant Eyes is the app used by House Speaker Mike Johnson and his son to monitor each other's internet behavior.
The AI nostalgia slop is interesting because the unstated material condition that underpins the whole thing regardless of the target era is "the Internet had not permeated all of culture yet." anyway the internet must be destroyed bsky.app/profile/ztul...

i reference Dream Askew / Dream Apart SO frequently when editing, giving design feedback, etc. & it's such a shame how few have played it relative to other indie games. it's such a groundbreaking set of systems & is upstream of basically every narrative TTRPG since it released. you GOTTA know it.
