Every person who gives birth shits themselves in that moment; birth isn't a miracle its labor. Games get made isn't a miracle, It is labor. If you think that it is a miracle, its not. Someone is performing labor of which you are unaware and you need to start asking questions and getting organized.

I'm not gonna play your game cause you've been eating ham sandwiches for the last year. No. If you tell me you are torturing yourself to make your game I'm gonna just not want to play it. Unless the torture is funny. /joke
I don't want to participate in the destruction of your mental health.
realtalk... I'm just so tired of seeing people telling me I have to like this or that because its "Indie" or because "its innovative". like no mother fucker, I play games to have fun or to think about things in new ways, but mostly to have fun.
If I cold take the mundane parts of making a game and punch it up into something that is fun or funny I would.... I'm just not in that head space and part of why I'm not is social media.
Nobody cares about my game without a gif or video or at minimum a description of gameplay that is not only informative but FUN to watch/read. This is why I've stopped talking about it. I don't want to exhaust goodwill with stuff that is mundane and deeply unfun to talk about.

The intelligence of living things is bound only by the function of its connectedness across the network of all living intelligences.

Are Sulzberger and Kahn dumb, gullible and incurious, or are they knowingly disingenuous gaslighters who enjoy trolling their liberal subscriber base that continues to subsidize them?
I did the math once and the cost of covering gender healthcare Medicaid for all 180,000 trans recipients is around $1 billion dollars. For *ten years.*
That's the amount of money being burnt in Iran every single day, to bomb schoolchildren.

Two completely different but equally artistic videogames released today. Give them a look.
Anyone in #Oregon, you might not be aware that this is being pushed under the radar. Old growth forests are about to become lumber, with no public debate or anything. You can pressure them about not letting this happen.
