Pill0wLava @recinber.bsky.social · 26/09/2026History happens in the context of history... But history also usually happens partially or fully outside the context of history too. As in, a lot of people who make history aren't necessarily familiar with the history that came before them, or which enabled their current position. 000
Pill0wLava @recinber.bsky.social · 24/09/2026I'm a fairy :3 I even have my own Court I visit sometimes... Though since my gender is constantly shifting, I think the vibe of my Court shifts with it... Still working that part out #otherkin 000
Pill0wLava @recinber.bsky.social · 22/09/2026I feel like I use strike through a lot more often than underline. It's a shame so many document editors make the former so much harder to access than the latter. 110
Pill0wLava @recinber.bsky.social · 21/09/2026Consumers are not omniscient. Consumers do not adequately consider the consequences of the purchases they make. Therefore, profitability is not a useful measure of a company's contributions to society. 100
Pill0wLava @recinber.bsky.social · 20/09/2026Good morning! Will post stuff from my new Minecraft project soon if I can log in on my PC 000
Pill0wLava @recinber.bsky.social · 12/08/2026Hiya! Idk if y'all are still alive, but since I'm logged in again I figured I'd announce here that my mod Rocks Done Right has been getting occasional updates! I'll send a link to a trailer once I make one, but there is a devlog on my YT. modrinth.com/mod/rocks-do...modrinth.comRocks Done Right - Minecraft ModA physically plausible geology overhaul! 010
Pill0wLava @recinber.bsky.social · 28/08/2025Good morning! I've been addicted to YouTube and also beginning the school semester so I haven't posted in a while. Good news: someone reached out to me about Rocks Done Right, a Minecraft Mod I was working on and published last year, and we may start working on a new update to it! 010

Pill0wLava @recinber.bsky.social · 24/08/2025100%! There's tons of tools for crafting data packs or throwing together the pieces for data packs. I'd personally recommended the recipe generator at crafting.thedestruc7i0n.ca and the world generation tools at misode.github.io Many let you build the full data pack on the web then download it!crafting.thedestruc7i0n.caCraftingCrafting recipes generator for Minecraft 030
Pill0wLava @recinber.bsky.social · 23/08/2025In contrast to the recommendation of @kezarus.bsky.social—learning and practicing discipline, which I certainly respect—I find Hank Green's advice resonates with me on a fundamental level, and describes a lot of how I approach my life. youtu.be/f_Rqf-vxBM8youtu.beDon't Follow Your Dreams, Follow Your ToolsYouTube video by Hank Green 121
Pill0wLava @recinber.bsky.social · 22/08/2025As much as I love level crossings, I will say that slip lane level crossings are not the vibe They're better than regular slip lanes, but they still encourage car-pedestrian conflict at dangerous speeds. 000
Pill0wLava @recinber.bsky.social · 21/08/2025Now I really want to have a Minecraft playthrough with the Item Discovery mod I may use a recipe randomizer or something to justify it a bit 000
Pill0wLava @recinber.bsky.social · 19/08/2025Your phone is just one unlucky drop away from being unusable. YOU are just one unlucky drop away from being considered "unfit for work" or "unfit for driving" and therefore undeserving of being alive (according to societal structures). 010
Pill0wLava @recinber.bsky.social · 18/08/2025If y'all are interested, here's some rough gameplay footage of Field Test!

Pill0wLava @recinber.bsky.social · 18/08/2025We live in a fascinating time where we have the knowledge base and the tools and technology to learn about and monitor the natural world just in time to try to save it from our own ignorance. Not to discredit the tribes of human that have and had a deep and intimate understanding of their world. 010
Pill0wLava @recinber.bsky.social · 15/08/2025Hang on, there's totally nothing stopping me from having my own cloud storage system is there? Just like, get a low-end computer with some storage space, hook it up to the internet, get some kind of secure login and encryption set up (the hard part), and use that instead of Google Drive. 000
Pill0wLava @recinber.bsky.social · 15/08/2025Post the first gif that comes up when you search your name Battle for Dream Island?

Pill0wLava @recinber.bsky.social · 15/08/2025I think it's worthwhile to sometimes ask ourselves what the words we use so often mean: To my understanding, the fundamental point of a government—what they were invented for—is to be an organization specialized for protecting a group of people. 1/ 100
Pill0wLava @recinber.bsky.social · 13/08/2025My step brother is now facing underemployment at the job he's had for a few years. I think that's a sign that the economy isn't doing to well 010
Pill0wLava @recinber.bsky.social · 13/08/2025I have endless respect for a channel on YouTube called The Octopus Lady She does videos on various oceanic species with absolutely insane amounts of research and thought put into them. I'd love to be at a point where I can make myself put that level of effort into things. 130
Pill0wLava @recinber.bsky.social · 12/08/2025There is no circumstance in which cars are a reasonable mode of transit There are circumstances where their flaws are less noticeable, but the utility they have is never more than that of actual transit. 010
Pill0wLava @recinber.bsky.social · 11/08/2025I think Field Test will take quite a bit of inspiration from Will You SnAIl? The level design, screen transitions, and hub world are a good mix, and I think something like them would fit here. 100
Pill0wLava @recinber.bsky.social · 11/08/2025With how America was founded, you'd think it would have required classes in Middle or High school saying "here's the ways that totalitarianism can form and how to identify when it's happening." 110

Pill0wLava @recinber.bsky.social · 10/08/2025Omg y'all I'm closer to actually culturing algae than ever Could I have theoretically started years ago? Probably, but I've got the drive and hopefully the tools to make it happen right now and that gets me excited 010
Pill0wLava @recinber.bsky.social · 09/08/2025Hm As much as I support the concept behind Meati's business model and products, I'm not a huge fan of the texture of the mycelium steak filets (due to autism). The flavor was absolutely on point and my friends say they go great with steak sauces, but I'm pretty sensitive to fibrous textures. 110
Pill0wLava @recinber.bsky.social · 09/08/2025Fun fact: if you use your brain to try to figure something out, that's called Philosophy Sure there's plenty of ways to formalize Philosophy, but at it's roots it's just thinking about something 010

Pill0wLava @recinber.bsky.social · 08/08/2025I've got a messy draft for a new Field Test level finished and playable; you use a spring-like restorative electric field to sling your self onto progressively higher platforms It'll be later in the game than the other levels I'm working on so I'm not in a rush to polish it yet 100
Pill0wLava @recinber.bsky.social · 06/08/2025Oh my *god* this The government does not need to profit off of the products it produces as long as it makes back the money it spends some other way (if we even decide it has to pay for the resources it uses at all). It can operate in a way that goes against market forces to, say, decrease pollution 000
Pill0wLava @recinber.bsky.social · 05/08/2025Ooh, I just found a video by GMTK about his experience in puzzle design. The original concept is by Patrick Traynor, maker of Patrick's Parabox. You make a table where each column and each row represent a feature of your puzzle game. 1/ 100
Pill0wLava @recinber.bsky.social · 04/08/2025This isn't meant to be super political, it's just oddly relevant right now (hence why I thought back to it) Computers are like, infinitely better at gerrymandering than humans are. Idk why so many politicians try to do it by hand. I'm sure there's reasons for it but still 000
Pill0wLava @recinber.bsky.social · 04/08/2025Next steps for Field Test: I think I want to design a level to teach relatively precise platforming and basic movement tech. There'll be a couple sections where gravity rotates 90°, but not in the middle of the platforming. That's for a later level 010
Pill0wLava @recinber.bsky.social · 04/08/2025Lots and lots of tiny updates to Field Test today! I finally added what I believe to be every permutation of walkable surface to my sprite sheet so now walls and floors can be thinner. I got around to changing how the player object is displayed and it's gotten me excited for making more levels 1/ 100
Pill0wLava @recinber.bsky.social · 02/08/2025There's so many neat characters that appear in my dreams One was this leopard style character with rainbow colored fur and white stars Today I dreamt of this hazelnut colored fur creature with pointed ears, a big tuft of darker brown fur on her chest, messy countershading, and big pink hair 010
Pill0wLava @recinber.bsky.social · 02/08/2025Not having reliable statistics on the economy and labor will be real cool for the next bit I feel bad for researchers in the future looking back and trying to understand what's gone on Not that we aren't going to be losing reliability on the data from tons of fields, but still 010

Pill0wLava @recinber.bsky.social · 31/07/2025On an unrelated note I have the first draft of the tutorial level 1 for Field Test assembled and playable! I have good reasons for not immediately having pictures for Bluesky—can't log in on PC, can't connect phone to PC, etc.—but it's too many characters to explain in one message 120
Pill0wLava @recinber.bsky.social · 31/07/2025I finally watched the hour long Gravity Falls video essay that YouTube has been recommending to me. I learned a huge amount about the storytelling philosophy that Gravity Falls uses; in order to succeed, a character must learn about themselves and improve as a person. I wanna play with that now 210
Pill0wLava @recinber.bsky.social · 30/07/2025Currently debating how I want to do my tutorial for Field Test It's heavily inspired by Portal, and Portal does tutorials masterfully, with each level, even very introductory ones, being puzzles. I'm thinking I may combine my levels 1–3 into a single continuous level since they're so small. 000
