New solo journaling game just dropped! It's short and weird, like me. 😜 Special shoutout to the incredibly talented @molomoot.bsky.social for creating the wonderful watercolour weirdo seen on the cover. 🫟🖌️ mumblemegs.itch.io/betwixt

There is something in the back of my mind telling me to ping this @kariebookish.bsky.social's way - were you documenting close tiles, or reading a book about them, or have I just made that up?

This is the hollowing out of society that allows the bad guys to take over. Horrific.

You can often swap the É at the start of a French word with an S and get closer to the English equivalent: 🇫🇷 État 🇬🇧 State 🇫🇷 Étude 🇬🇧 Study 🇫🇷 Étrange 🇬🇧 Strange 🇫🇷 Écoute 🇬🇧 Scout (seriously, they're related) But why? @jesszafarris.bsky.social and I have been talking it out. youtu.be/PfK6C7NASqQ

Lmao. I for one am shocked that LLMs can't discern aave and instead of addressing the anti blackness in our society (which directly leads to the racist way in LLMs are programmed) its being played off as a generational divide thing, because its easier to pretend non white 14yo created new slang

Hey, any games media friends who are knowledgeable about drag culture? It's cool if you're just a fan and don't participate. Got an opportunity with a big dev that could be really fun. DMs should be open.

It's amazing how many business practice books basically say something along the lines of "remember the human element, don't rely exclusively on numbers, leave room for people to be people" Because it suggests that current trends to data-fy everyone and everything are active choices to be awful.

I've got a YouTube documentary channel that ostensibly focuses on cryptids in Canada on in the background as I work, and it's fascinating because it's going into a lot about the First Nations throughout Canada. Like, talking about their culture, history, anthropology. It's pretty badass.

Have a hefty whack of unexpected medical and physio bills so I'm running a flash discount in the shop for the week - you can use the code BANJAXED at checkout on www.ciaraioch.com/artprints to get 10% off all orders. If you've had your eye on a print, please take it off, you're making it soggy.

It's #makeaterriblecomicday2025 apparently! Everything's terrible. Also, I really wanted the letterers to really suffer when reading this one.

Mamdani's primary victory should be a wake up call to establishment traditionally left parties all over. Instead, Labour in the UK will continue to offer brushed aluminium morality voids like Wes Streeting while losing to a party of pasty racists who can't be bothered turning up for work.

The world would be much more dull without the colours provided by one @darjeeliarts.bsky.social! She’s cool, she’s calm, she’s Canadian, and she’s helping with colours on GETS IT TOGETHER!

I've started practicing my Presentation Skills workshop out loud, and you know what? I think it's gonna be a real good workshop. I think people are going to get a lot out of it.

I do think it's a bit bullshitty that my colleagues and I started in a company with a pleasant, helpful, considerate work culture, and thanks to the transplantation of Silicon Valley folks after going public, we are now subject to a hostile, cold, arrogant work culture.
