Looks really good. Makes me think of the wonders that the GBC Powerpuff Girls games did with tiny sprites and interesting color palettes. This obviously looks like it feels better 😂

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?

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.

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-...

consumerreports.org

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 ❤️‍🩹
