I'd say this is a mnemonic for which months of the year you can't launch an indie game but if that were true you'd have to add January, June, and part of May

I found this photo on Tik Tok and it's so damn powerful.

A portrait of American collusion with #genocide.

Don't let America tell you this never happened. We watched it. They funded it. They allowed it to happen.

In the era of AI, it is now the duty of every major site to do at least one total shitpost a week to make sure AI steals it.

African AI workers, mostly from Kenya, released an open letter to Joe Biden this week asking him stop US tech companies from “systemically abusing and exploiting African workers” and to end the “modern day slavery” they’re subjected to.

"urban fantasy"? like… affordable housing, walkable neighborhoods, reliable transit, that kind of thing?

I've been shut down since Radar died in Sept 2023. Kaylee joined him in January. I've been unwell.

I'm rebooting livestreaming as a way to brute force myself into doing things for fun again.

May 23: What gets in the way of your writing?

Capitalism. And sometimes children. But mostly capitalism.

Writers’ Coffee Club for 24th May 2024

  1. Is there any work of fiction you could have written better? Don't be shy.

What, apart from seasons 7 & 8 of Game of Thrones? 😆

I’ve read quite a few books in my time, and some of them weren’t especially well-written. Others were, but I still find a few bits here and there that could stand a bit of revision. I’ve been re-reading Eddings’ Belgariad series to my youngest lately, and while I think it was quite well written overall, I came across a few passages last night that stood out to me as a little ‘clunky’ in the prose – I definitely feel I could have done those parts better!

What is your character bad at? Obviously we should celebrate our characters best traits, but what is something they fail at consistently?

@gamolf_dev @golgaloth speaking of which, does anyone know of any tutorials for actually doing motion graphics with Blender?

Cause I've seen people recommend it for that but then not actually have any idea how to do it or where to even point people who wanna learn to, I've never been able to get a proper answer so I'm left with "just learn the entirety of Blender lmao"
