For my birthday, I'd really like it if my beloved fedi could spread word far and wide of Kitsune Tails. It's a platformer with a heartwarming story featuring queer main characters and personal discoveries in classic SMB3 style. You can find trailer, screenshots, and wishlist links here: https://kitsunegames.com/kitsunetails
It's coming out this year and the team and I have been working hard on it for several years now. Most of the team is queer in some form so by boosting you'd not only be making me happy on my birthday, but supporting a bunch of queer creators making queer art as well
@taylorlorenz The article is pretty careful to note that these people are not pro-Israel but rather are opportunists who are there to push a separate agenda entirely. Repeatedly calling them "pro-Israel" in the post seems a bit gratuitous. When Gavin McInnes dressed up as a protester at Columbia he was doing the same thing--acting as an agent of chaos trying to find an opportunity for mayhem, not pro- or anti- Palestinian or Israeli.
@mrtnsnp I’m more bothered as to what it means for the French. Imagine you’re not a digitally skilled person and go to a ticket office - and even there tell you “no, sorry!”
Aww. #RIP Roger Corman, the Oscar-winning “King of the Bs” who helped turn out such low-budget classics as “Little Shop of Horrors” and “Attack of the Crab Monsters” and gave many of Hollywood’s most famous actors and directors early breaks, has died. He was 98.
I love retro games, especially SNES/NES/N64 and GB games.
Modern games, except for some titles, do not fascinate me at all anymore.
This lead to being able to run machines that are in the "older" realm. Not having a dedicated graphics card can be a blessing for sure. Energy costs drastically go down and one can run quiet systems.
Besides, playing retro games is not taxing at all to the system - any system will do fine.
I miss the great stories older games told... nostalgia hits again.
For a bit of Sunday happiness & silliness: tell me about some a book you've recently excitedly told someone about and why!
I've talked about Erin Meyer's "Culture Map" because it opened my eye to a lot of intercultural interactions I have in both, my everyday and my work life.
And about Marcin Wicha's "Things I Didn't Throw Out" because it made me laugh and cry at the same time + made me fall in love with Daunt books because I would not have found out about the book without them.
@vicgrinberg I recently read The Giver of Stars, which is a historical fiction about the Packhorse Librarians of Kentucky (US) during the great depression.
There were a lot of places in Kentucky that didn't have library access because of distances and rural mountain terrain. So the Packhorse Librarians would load 100 ish books into saddlebags every day and ride all around the county delivering books to secluded families.
@vicgrinberg “From Strength to Strength” lessons on making that transition as you age and inevitably decline. I keyed in particularly on the section about lacking real relationships vs transactional friends mostly from work. Having to answer that question “ how many real friends do you have?” was sobering. I’m trying hard to shift my mindset to ‘prioritize prople and relationships over work.’
Ja, tut mir echt leid, aber wir können uns keine Kindergrundsicherung leisten, wir müssen schließlich noch die Steuern für eines der größten Events der UMSATZSTÄRKSTEN SPORTART DER WELT erlassen. Ach und stellt bitte keine Fragen, ok ciao
@Anikke@Nietzsxhe Alleine für Christian Lindner gehört die FDP auf die Liste der kriminellen Vereinigungen gesetzt und verboten. Dann noch eher die Hells Angels ins Finanzministerium, die Banditos ins Verkehrsministerium und 'Mongols MC' ins Justizministerium. Mehr Schaden als Lindner, Wissing und Marco Buschmann richten die auch nicht an. #FDPschadetunsallen #FDPrausausderRegierung #FDPunterFünfProzent
In the most glorious "fuck you" I have seen in a while, you know the book that Cumberland City Council banned because they're homophobic bigots - Holly Duhig's "A focus on Same Sex Parents"? Well, the publisher, BookLife Publishing, have made a PDF version of the book available for free.
Sure be a shame if it was shared far and wide now, wouldn't it?
Every time you ban a book filled with hope and kindness, and care and love, we will resist.
