If a foreign adversary snuck into our Federal budget and cut science research and education the way we’re cutting it ourselves — strategically undermining America’s long-term health, wealth, and security — we would likely consider it an act of war.

I started doing level design for this cozy, co-op, sandbox game where you play as woodland creatures in a fantastical, Victorian-era, setting. Riding an owl as a mouse is the best! Please support the Kickstarter and Wishlist on Steam! #cozygames #steam #kickstarter

there are so many people looking for work in the #gameindustry right now. it would make so much sense for people to open up their own indie studios with all that talent floating around and make cool creative shit that most of the AAA studios wouldnt dare releasing. #gamedevjobs #diyordie

My toddler adamantly demands that you "sit" but mispronounces it as "shit". I hope she never grows out of this.

Hello world. Thinking about moving over here after a lifetime on FB/IG. How are you guys liking it over here? It feels hard to switch because of all the friends and family on FB but there's so much ads and trash in those feeds now. #Enshittification
