Who could forget the dreary assembles, the pointless charade of praying, the horrible hymn singing, the sanctimonious emptiness of it all. Why can kids who don’t believe in it go sit in a room instead?

No child mature enough to decide they don't believe in a god should be forced to pray at school. Yet the Scottish government's plans for religious observance will not give them the right to opt themselves out. Help fund an independent legal opinion portal.humanism.scot/donate/campa...

I've hiked and climbed a large part of the Lake District over the years, and walked up the Old Man of Coniston several times. Have ducked into the old slate mines on several occasions. Atomfall absolutely nails these environments. So good.

I remember when I was 6 my grandpa took the batteries out of my gameboy because I was “reliant on technology” Well well well, guess who’s on life support while I need to charge my phone?

I think what's difficult with the chat about Blue Prince is that it's easy to talk about annoyances (the draft frustrations) spoiler-free than the amazing stuff (which is impossible to even be indirect about without spoiling things). The game is a lot more than 'just' the room drafting though.

Motherfucker, US forces have rampaged across the world for the past eighty years and you're trying to tell us that they only follow orders when they're good orders? Tell that to the countless dead.

So you managed to bully Adobe off this platform while I was away? Well done!

Fur shader update: finished implementing all parameters from Acerola's version, except the displacement direction which is hard coded downwards for now. Also made it fully interactive. Fun to play with! The gist is updated as well with the latest code #gamedev #godot #shaders #3d

In honour of Hayao Miyazaki I've implemented the biggest update to the GenAI mute/block list in a few months. Clear your feed. Let me know of any missed accounts and any false positive I might have swept up. I'm not perfect and happy to review mistakes. bsky.app/profile/eidy...

Made a stylized 'point leaves' shader in Godot 4 for an unannounced project. This took a whole day to get right (considering I have little knowledge of GDShaders). #gamedev #godot #indiedev #indiegames #shaders #gameart #artstyle

Time to actually start using this account and migrating some art over. Here's one of a small series of Mundane Mechs from a little while back.

Private faith schools are still crying foul over the UK govt's plan to end their tax breaks. The religious status of a school shouldn't warrant special treatment. All schools, regardless of ethos, should be subject to the same rules.

It's such a nice sunny day here. First anti-histamine of the year too 😪

Calling yourself an artist because you made an AI prompt is literally the same thing as calling myself an artist because I put the ink in the printer. #ai #ghibli #art
