There's a popular Sunnyside property with a land redesignation. Councilor @mykeatkinson.bsky.social is hoping to preserve the character of the neighbhourhood, which means mostly preserving this cool plaza circled in red. In reality, I think we need reform that helps development look more like this:

I’m at the AGM for the Banff Trail Community Association, where a small group of residents have arrived in the hope of forming a planning and development committee. They’ve been writing letters opposing development for a year and a half, but they want the weight of the CA behind their positions.

Yeah Zero Company is a great game whatever. What I'm really wondering is how everyone dressed up their Hawks. I'm working with purple and teal hues for the underarmour and the occasional orange zip.

Scratching a Battlefield 2142 itch. The one with giant titans that you break into and blow up. Angels Fall First has been in EA for 10 years, releasing in 1.0 soon. It's got the big ships. Tactical commands. But what hooked me is this Skyrim gag when you die in the tutorial 🤣

Other than some likely roof drainage issues, super happy with my Paralives build and the tools the game gives you... sadly I did discover I couldn't actually get through the front door 😅

It's my first GDC and I have a suggestion. I'm overhearing (snooping) on a not small amount of people saying ROI as arrr ohhh eye. We should change this to the French ROI (rrrrooooahhh). Elegant. European. Sophisticated.

Having a lot of fun with MENACE. It's like BATTLETECH where you really feel the loss of personnel in the gut, and also both these games use ALL CAPS for their name, hinting at a deeper physiological connection between them.

Would be cool™ if the executive teams of big companies acted like their success is built upon a society that doesn't suck, instead of spending their free time funding think tanks and social media disinfo hubs that actively undermine the systems they themselves rely on to be rich as balls

At the time that I looked, @despelote.game was the least reviewed game of #TheGameAwards. I'm not sure it should be. No other game has put me in the shoes of being a kid again quite like this. Video: youtube.com/watch?v=1Wig... (but really, just play the game) 🤘⚽️

Is anyone using Discord alternatives? I've got a weird hankering to setup a forum. Something about having a known ownership of the community space feels important in an era of the forever subscription. You join a Discord, say a few words, and then likely never engage again. It's frictionless.

Yeah there's a lot about AI that sucks, but the single most radicalizing agent is that the physical power button on my phone has been replaced with activating Gemini. Look what they took from us.
