I feel robbed, my phone didn't make any noise at all. Also eeww why did it say presidential alert
an attempt to dig my way out of my #gamedev rut by modelling a tractor. I spent hours working through tedious problems that were probably my fault to begin with, maybe I can use the tractor to tow myself out of the rut now, but it looks kinda neat now I think
lol lmao it's not what I had in mind when I said I wanted the solar panel calls to stop but sure why not www.abc.net.au/news/2026-07...

I fucked up, after signing up my new energy company was like "hey do you want to get solar, we can help". Sure thinking maybe they had a few trusted known installers I have 30 missed calls, they dropped my number into the shark infested waters of hungry pushy solar panel salespersons

i drove into town cause I wanted hot donuts at 8pm but nooo I had the wrong day for when the donut truck was open and then went to the actual donut shop but they were out of donuts is very tragic. I got a hot dog instead
Today was the 3rd monthly meetup for the local #gamedev group I started, its been a lot of fun Being not in the city I didn't know if there was any interest but there's been a great turnout of people who are all passionate about game making, sharing our projects, stories and helping each other.
I went to a weird little store in a town halfway to the middle of nowhere and found this weird little handmade embroidered patch I have a pair of jeans with a hole in them, this will be perfect

These Hiluxes and Raptors out there are not driving like there's a fuel crisis. I bet that one LPG falcon I saw is real chuffed though.
I didn't think I would like Marathon at all because I have not really liked extraction shooters in the past but I accidentally 10hours of it in server slam. It has the good shooty feeling
I get it now: Marathon satisfies, at 20 minute intervals, my masculine urge to bleed out [here] [here] is a dreamlike and baleful alien vista contaminated, but not yet mutilated by utterly overmatched human brute force
hate to be continuing my theme of energy drink posting but this could fix me
How is no-one selling indulgences on the blockchain yet
Everyone should checkout this wonderful little game. It's so incredibly charming and it has a demo so you can try it out right now!
In anticipation of Key Fairy's release (on the 19th of February) I have caught a cold. To support me in this difficult time, consider wishlisting Key Fairy on Steam, and telling all your weird little friends to do the same. Every wishlist is one step closer to health, or something, I don't know
fml I just got on the treadmil at the gym and it's already insulting me

How it feels to be sent back into the daylight after getting the pupil dilation drops during the eye exam
Sure sure sure I could be doing the gamedev tasks I set out to do today but after writing a whole 2 lines of code I deserve a little treat of playing games for 4 hours
I continue to despise the use of Discord as a support platform. If it's open source, unpaid or a mod or something sure ok fine but I won't like it. If you're a company using discord as a primary support platform then you aren't a real company you are larping, even worse if it's a physical product
