That's what taxes are, man. That's the definition of taxes. "You are subsidizing things you might never use" man shut the fuck up. My taxes currently subsidize like oil company exec private jets, you think I'm upset at low-income people eating inexpensive bananas?

Opinion: Mamdani's idea may sound appealing, but it's NYC taxpayers who will take the hit, subsidizing discounts they may never even use.

Thanks a ton to everyone who came out to my talk and to Creative Mornings for hosting me. Really cool to hear so much enthusiasm for community, how to support others in easy ways, and respond to over-competition in a destitute games industry with collaboration. I'll post again when it goes online.

This country was one person's vote away this morning from putting any birthright citizen in danger of being deported tomorrow. We are so much closer to the abyss than we think. Man oh man.

Finally starting to reach back to folks to say THANK YOU for everything that everyone did for PIGCON last weekend. I'm still tired and trying to find my footing in a regular daily/weekly schedule after going really hard on the event, so thanks for your patience!! Mission complete, though <3

my latest @consumerreports.org investigation is based on months of reporting and 120+ lab tests of popular snacks over a third of the products had more additives / contaminants in 1 serving than what health agencies have identified as safe to consume daily 🧵 www.consumerreports.org/health/food-...

These Popular Snacks Contain High Levels of Additives and Contaminants - Consumer Reports

Tests by Consumer Reports and Yuka found high levels of additives and contaminants in popular products from Cheetos, Hostess, Jell-O, Kool-Aid, Takis, and more.

Starting to process photos! It’s so amazing to see these moments after our volunteers, sponsors, speakers, showcasers, artists, and supporters came together to make such a special event. More soon, including a form for feedback so that we can make our future events feel even better for everyone <3

At PIGCON last weekend a woman approached my table wanting to know all about what I make. I showed her each game and she said all kinds of sweet things, and before she walked away she very seriously said, "I'm sure your games have saved a few lives". I don't want to forget this, so I'm sharing it ❤️‍🩹

PIGCON vibes were immaculate. It felt like we were all just hanging out at a friend's house playing video games and talking. The showcase was fantastic, I spent too much money at artist alley. The LIVE T SHIRT PRINTING. The talks!! The music performances blew my socks off. Special stuff!

Still reeling from showing my game at PIGCON, what an incredible weekend! The atmosphere, the games, and the people were amazing- the artist alley and talks were top notch. So much work went into this and the organizers deserve all the props for a successful, fun and safe event!
