It’s been wild to see so many headlines about the firings at the Joint Chiefs of Staff and none of them explicitly saying “Trump fired the one Black person and the one woman so he could have an all white male Joint Chiefs”

Lots of folks are feeling overwhelmed and scared right now and say they don’t know what to do. Wear your masks, y’all. It’s one of the easiest, radical anti-fascist acts you can do.

Is Bluesky worth it for promoting cozy/wholesome games? We haven't had quite as much success here as on the Other Place...but I think it's nicer here and I want to stay ☺️ If our game looks like your cup of tea, could you please like & share this? More info in 🧵⬇️

I'm finally able to share this cover I created for Garrett's Forester's book 'Garrett's Ventures - First Profit: Gum.' It's about a kid learning about financial responsibility as he tries to make money, and also about friendship. See more at www.garrettsventures.com #kidLit #kidLitArt #bookCover

Hey you! Do yourself a favour and get a real profile image. Do it now! Fill in your bio and add a banner too, but mostly get a dang image that isn't one of those solid colour and white line drawing/icon images. Everyone thinks you're a bot.

for some wild reason, I wrote music that kind of reminded me of a clueless goblin building a house. So then I drew a silly goblin and put the music with it. It made my husband and I chuckle at least 😅

This comment on r/fednews really stood out to me. Trump and Musk want people to think they're firing do-nothing "bureaucrats," but they're really getting rid of people dedicated to serving this country and keeping it operational. I hope these stories get told.

Here's some process development for one of the backgrounds in Puzzle Spy International. I didn't show the many different sloppy thumbnails generated before this layout was chosen, but you can get a feel of the steps that went into the final scene. #gameArt #indieGameDev #indieGame #vn #visualNovel

One thing Democratic leadership could do right now is to name an alternate HHS secretary--someone to provide ongoing public updates and health information. And do it for other departments too. Start showing voters what a Democratic government would look like--press conferences, speeches, all of it.
