STEEL BALL RUN IS SO FUCKING BACK!!!!!!!!!!!!

Khide @khide.bsky.social · 14/09/2026

Finishing up the last episode of Julia (Child) on Crave / HBO. I fucking love all the beautiful bozos in this show!!!! The message is clear, the acting is wonderful, and I adore that the show focuses on relationships between older folks in such an honest & joyful way :)

Just finished The Ghost In The Shell (2026). Fuckin' absolute tour-de-force from Science Saru!! I've been a fan of this studio since their first anime, and I was NOT disappointed with this one!!! Absolutely gorgeous and incredibly philosophically dense (and horny as hell)

I've been working hard on my mecha game for 1.5yrs as the programmer & team lead, alongside 3 composers and 25 excellent artists (the emblem project is so ridiculously ambitious)!! It's probably going to be another 1.5yrs before release, but I am SO proud of all the work everyone has done thus far!

I need to EXTREMELY STRONGLY recommend you watch this. Honestly, I was so moved as an artist by the immense lifeforce that Jerry's poured into this map that it brought me to tears multiple times & I had to pause & return to it later. Such a beautiful, living work of art. The tree analogy was lovely.

I've had my nose to the grindstone dotting my Is and crossing my Ts to start pitching to publishers! I'm super happy with how the game (and team) has come together! 2 weeks ago, I put up a unadorned gameplay video to show publishers what the game looks like, and it got a lot of attention! Wooooo!!!!

Kyle Kingsbury is not a journalist. He is not an op-ed writer. He is a computer safety researcher. And he has written one of the most compelling, comprehensive accounts of the ongoing hell in Chicago that you could possibly imagine. In under 1600 words. aphyr.com/posts/397-i-...

I Want You to Understand Chicago
Politics Chicago
2025-11-08

I want you to understand what it is like to live in Chicago during this time.

Every day my phone buzzes. It is a neighborhood group: four people were kidnapped at the corner drugstore. A friend a mile away sends a Slack message: she was at the scene when masked men assaulted and abducted two people on the street. A plumber working on my pipes is distraught, and I find out that two of his employees were kidnapped that morning. A week later it happens again.

An email arrives. Agents with guns have chased a teacher into the school where she works. They did not have a warrant. They dragged her away, ignoring her and her colleagues’ pleas to show proof of her documentation. That evening I stand a few feet from the parents of Rayito de Sol and listen to them describe, with anguish, how good Ms. Diana was to their children. What it is like to have strangers with guns traumatize your kids. For a teacher to hide a three-year-old child for fear they might be killed. How their relatives will no longer leave the house. I hear the pain and fury in their voices, and I wonder who will be next.

Understand what it is to pray in Chicago. On September 19th, Reverend David Black, lead pastor at First Presbyterian Church of Chicago, was praying outside the ICE detention center in Broadview when a DHS agent shot him in the head with pepper balls. Pepper balls are never supposed to be fired at the head because they can seriously injure, or even kill. “We could hear them laughing as they were shooting us from the roof,” Black recalled. He is not the only member of the clergy ICE has assaulted. Methodist pastor Hannah Kardon was violently arrested on October 17th, and Baptist pastor Michael Woolf was shot with pepper balls on November 1st.

Understand what it is to sleep in Chicago. On the night of September 30th, federal agents rappelled from a Black Hawk helicopter to execute a raid on an apartment building on the South Sho…

Yo @wooliewoolz.bsky.social since you hinted at maybe having another mechweek, I wanted to let you know that DuckStation is my PS1 emulator of choice (and the Front Mission 3 remake is bad, so I recommend emulating the original instead). PCSX2 is also excellent for PS2 games!

Khide @khide.bsky.social · 05/10/2025

(Oops I forgot to say this sooner -) I've made a ton of progress on my game :D!!! Environments are textured, and there's a decent amount of missions! Next up: the final super-mission, which you can approach from many different angles (each with their own unique objective)! youtu.be/JJWQAxyjkQU?...

AI is killing the games industry. Don't use it, don't accept it, push back against it wherever you can, because this tech is cannibalizing everything you care about, even if you don't know it, it's poisoning something right now that you'll feel the impact of further down the line.

Alright. It's time. I'm closing one book, and opening another! Recently, I started prototyping a new game - an old-school Armored Corelike, inspired specifically by 3rd Gen (best gen 😤)!! I have such a deep love for this series, and I don't want the charm of those old games to be lost to time

Let the damn Wizard saga die. Let HP die. I'm serious. You're not 11 anymore, you're a grown ass adult who understands that separating art from author while they live is impossible, and also that human rights are more important than your nostalgia. Don't engage with HP media, don't support JKR

A former French military base, Vauban is a thriving neighbourhood of 5,500 residents connected to Freiburg town centre by bus and light rail. Built in the late 1990s as a radical experiment in low-car living, it forgoes virtually all on-street parking in favour of active, green, and social spaces. 🧵

People in casual spring attire walk, cycle, and ride trams along car-free streets lined with colourful low-rise residential buildings in the neighbourhood of Vauban in Freiburg, Germany.

Europe stops when 4 innocent people are murdered & 200 are injured. The average daily Israeli murder rate is about 55 times that, for 440+ days. All of these poor people are victims of the same fascist movement sweeping the globe, while the fascists proclaim the victims are enemies of each other.
