The trend of dressing up for Barbie is fascinating because it seems like a lot of cis women don’t have many opportunities to goof around with gender for fun

“As a rule of thumb, though, good managers don’t attempt to cause growth by force. They take individual experience as both motivation and input, then shape healthy experiences by exerting force on the environment. Let me repeat: good managers usually frame their work as being most on structures, not directly on people.”

Hi, I'm an indie dev working on So to Speak, a puzzle game where YOU figure out what Japanese words mean, instead of memorizing them ⛩️

this may be a silly little thing, but it shows how using a social media site for 16 years affects muscle memory: i still hit the star instead of the ribbon to bookmark a toot.

back on #twitter one of my followers said they have a hard time relating to the ui; while another said they had suburban (and by that i mean white) gated community anxiety when looking at the fediverse.

and this is why the corporatocracy went all in on social media: they know they can affect us as a #neural level

i think a lot about how apparently, someone visiting pink floyd's studio in the mid-70s noticed they had several minimoogs set up with gaffer tape all over them, because when they got a sound they liked, they'd put the tape over the knobs so the settings wouldn't get changed, and invoice the record label for another fresh minimoog. i think this is how you're actually supposed to manage python software installations, just buy a new computer every time you finally get the correct packages set up

Here's one weird trick that billionaires don't want you to know:

I've settled on these NPC icons:

"!": The NPC has a quest for you
"?": You have something for the NPC
"...": The NPC just wants to chat

It's made a huge positive difference.

"how will i explain trans people to my kids" you see johnny, some people are just intrinsically sick as fuck and cool as hell, so they dress how they want and name themselves how they want and sometimes hack their own bodies to look how they want instead of letting other people tell them what to do

ChatGPT won't say "boobs" or "hell" and can't do math. Your calculator can only say boobs and hell, and can do math. I think it's clear who's on the cutting edge of AI

This Bird Hydra is terrifying. In the same time, I want to photoshop a butterknife in each of its mouthes and say "Peace was never an option." #MTG #Magicthegathering #neverendingspoilerseason #mtgpreview

My friend Sidney made a video about why players play the way they do, and how that can inform your game design, and it's got me thinking about my own play and design!

Damn girl are you an open source software project because I want to contribute to making your life better and having you around for a long time

My game launched today.

It took a lot of pain to get to this point. My worst fear is that it will be met with a wave of hatred or silence.

Steam's algorithm due to the nature of this game will likely work against it being seen.

Please boost if you can.

I miss Twitter.

there should be a mechanism like amongus where if a capitalist is too damn stupid you run into the break room and hit the button and everyone votes on if they go out the airlock or not
