#gamedev #screenshotsaturdays Human Era - rivers are a combination of a spline-driven mesh with heavy materials work, and liberal use of my terrain stamping system for carving out the channel and painting the river bed. Rapids and deep canyon areas are an emergent property of the system.
Dear cis people: Autistic people are overrepresented in trans spaces. Autistic people have, typically, a deep rooted sense of justice. Dealing an injustice to trans people and asking us to suck it up and vote for you anyway is... underconsidered, shall we say.

When people I meet say "the US is doing evil things", I am not scared. I am not offended. I understand and, largely, agree. If a statement of similar character puts you on the defensive, perhaps it's a sign your sense of self is too closely tied to your nationalism.

The games industry, I firmly believe, is dying because it ran on investment capital more than on a healthy profit -> new game model. All the investment capital has been sucked out of the room, and is now used to inflate the AI bubble instead. If the industry survives, it won't be in this form.
Centrists when public opinion shifts on trans rights: "We must meet the people where they're at." Centrists when public opinion shifts on Israel: "How dare the people be like that?!"
Trump: "ELECTION SECURITY!" Also Trump: *fires the whole FEC as soon as he humanly can*
A lie gets halfway round the world by the time the truth has put its shoes on. But that is not the end. Truth cannot be removed by force of words. It can be outrun, outmaneuvered, but it cannot be undone. Its growth cannot be stopped. Truth is inexorable.
Beneath the feet of Empire Such as we fall, unnoticed Piddling little things, of no worth To emperors or kings Fit, in the end, for one sole purpose To be trod into the earth And, unburdened of our joy To rot in bondage and rejoice
Please o please o please let it have happened. Or happen. It's my birthday soon.
Okay. When Trump puts his dumbass signature on dollar bills, we need to start permanent marking ", pedophile" underneath. Make him regret his hubris.
Sometimes I check Clearsky to see who's newly blocking me. The biggest spike was a couple weeks ago after mentioning AI in an offhand comment. Really a 'I'm sorry you feel that way' moment, tbh. I wish none of the folks on that list ill, but I shall never understand them.
EXTREMELY open to non-games work too. Aside from my technical background, I’m also a published author many times over (comics, prose, and nonfiction), community organizer, and propmaker.
Still looking for my next role - if you know anyone who needs an award winning game designer, narrative designer, or content designer with technical skills and people managing experience who has been at it for 15 years and has made stuff that is taught in schools, hit me up at zoe@unburntwitch.com
The *irony* of transphobia being a campaign of organized misogyny by a bunch of equal opportunity perverts looking for sex slaves is ....jawdropping.
@jessdkant.bsky.social you should do a statistical analysis of which sections of time in Epstein's email records are either missing or blacked out. See if they line up to when Trump was in cahoots with him.
Writing is how we scream Louder than words Stronger than the lives of Our oppressors From the mouths of today's victims To the ears of tomorrow's children In hopes that they will listen Grow past our mistakes And be good
The fact that you *refused* to look until our blood was in the streets. *Refused* to listen to any voice but your own. *Refused* to consider what this was, what this has always been, when NOTHING these people have done was not telegraphed YEARS in advance. ...May you rot.
“Gentlemen may cry, Peace, Peace-- but there is no peace. The war is actually begun! The next gale that sweeps from the north will bring to our ears the clash of resounding arms! Our brethren are already in the field! Why stand we here idle?
The guy was being held down on the ground by like 6 scumbags and he was shot point blank while doubled over on his knees after the piece of shit pistol whipped him several times. Now you don’t have to watch.
Getting real tired of the old "You haven't lost rights. Oh, abortion/equality/etc.? Those weren't rights to begin with/you didn't deserve those" Reindeer games. At the least, at the very fucking least, be honest about when and how you're screwing us over.
I am a better person than any of the 'Christians' talking down to me. I live my life to spite your fake faith; to spite every single person who ever claimed that who I am meant aught about my morality. If I have more fruits of your spirit than you do, what does that say about you?
A three percenter, Christians nationalist lives three doors down from where I live. I do not feel safe.
