I drew a comic strip.

a comic strip. The first panel shows a goblin in a long coat approaching a guard. The second panel has the goblin saying "we're just normal men!". The third panel has the guard replying "what do you mean normal men?". The fourth panel shows both the goblin in the coat and the guard. The coat is beginning to open to show many goblins within. The guard looks suspicious and a goblin emerging from the coat is saying "We're just innocent men!"

Since no one replied, I did some research and plonked it on a site, including PLUM data. It tells an interesting story of US government diversity: thecabinetroom.neocities.org I've tried to keep the language more academic/neutral. Any errors, let me know. JFF - just for fun/hobby research 🤓🇺🇸

it's always odd when "you should expose yourself to more diverse ideas" always means a certain kind of conservatism instead of like, Indigenous art, new fusion foods, math paradoxes, or the Dvorak keyboard layout

My toxic trait: I believe that every gaming creator who cares about games as an art form should, at some point, encounter The Mermaid Mask. What you do with that information is between you and the universe.

One of the most rewarding art challenges we took on in The Mermaid Mask was to make all the clues fully 3D. @catherineunger.bsky.social would paint the 2D image as always, and then @kindradantone.bsky.social modelled and painted a 3D model to match it exactly - and the results were quite incredible-

two hours into The Mermaid Mask with my Game Clearing Gang and immediately we have met an all time character

a character from The Mermaid Mask called Symmetry (a thin girl with long blond hair, wearing a white outfit with a golden eye necklace).
Her dialogue box says:
I am but midway through. Prithee, spoil it not!

NEW: It finally happened, a 10/10 from Geoffrey. The Mermaid Mask is a deft and delightful murder mystery that sets a marker for how a game should be voice acted (with special mention for @amberleeconnors.bsky.social and @edwyntiong.com) and how good point-and-click games can, and should, be.
