my most player-hating video game opinion is that cut content isn't full of secret mysteries and people are killing the conversation by insisting that data-mining is a good way to approach a narrative. when you're baking a cake, licking the batter off the spoon is a real pleasure, but it ain't cake.

A bit late for #PortfolioDay but it's been a while since I've done one of these anyway, would be good to reintroduce myself: I'm Juanito, lead artist at Nitrome. I pushed pixels on Shovel Knight Dig's DLC and TMNT Shredder's Revenge.

ELECTION RESULT: A team of city council members in Rolla, Missouri, have been pushing anti-LGTB policies, including a ban on drag shows and book censorship. Voters just ousted all three of these city councilors who were running for reelection, backing candidates backed by a local LGBT group.

There's something weird happening where The Discourse about the tariffs is about how Trump is trying to return us to 1950's and 1960's, the manufacturing heyday of America, but he's not! He' been very very explicit about this. He wants to return us to the 1890's. That's a different project!

An underrated factor in how we got ourselves into this mess is that Americans are increasingly relying on computers and the internet instead of their own critical thinking faculties (AI is making this even worse), and as a result are uninformed and easy to manipulate.

my final thoughts on grummz is that this is more than just him. grummz target queer and black game developers and community members to ruin their lives, and uses his audiences rage to silence games journalists. he brings people into the alt-right pipeline. it’s good to take these people on

I took my 2 year old son to an MLB game today for some quality dad time and he absolutely had a blast. In fact, he was sad when the game ended because he wanted to stay at the ballpark. It was a good reminder that there’s still a lot of joy in life.

Best case he turns off Apr 2nd tariffs Monday. Leaves the 10pct tariffs (not great, but realistic). Elon leaves Doge, which decides to stagger the cuts over 3 yrs, accounting for local impact. That slows the economy, reducing interest rates, reducing payments on debt to affordable levels.

This is, incidentally, also the precise logic of a homeowners association: "I will willingly give up the right to paint my house any color so that my neighbor does not have the right to paint his house any color. I will pay a financial premium, to ensure my neighbors look like me."

i have learned that way too many americans see the concept of 'freedom' simply as the potential to be rich and privileged, even if they aren't, & not things like freedom from dying from a preventable illness if you're poor, or being imprisoned for minor crimes, or persecuted by the police, etc

It's not manufacturing jobs you want, it's a stable job with a middle-class wage, retirement, affordable health insurance, and worker protections that you want. Which isn't naturally tied to factory jobs, but it is naturally tied to union organizing.
