@JoscelynTransient @Tattie @siege Egg prime directive. Can't tell someone they're trans until they're already questioning. They'll just retreat more deeply into the closet.

More progress!
🚨🌿GRASS GIF ALERT🌿🚨
In #Techtonica, the grass ~fwooshes~ when you build machines, waves in the cavern breeze, and twirls below the M.O.L.E. (our black hole terrain manipulator).
Not sure we've been this pumped about grass before, but here we are.
Traffic is wild out there. 🤣
Up til now, cars would drive in a random direction and every few seconds would turn a random amount. This was chaotic. _This_ is meant to be adding tiles that force the cars to turn corners.
It's not working hahaha. As usual for me though, if it generates good gifs, it's worth pursuing.

Ludum Dare progress!
Every few months, I find myself recommending basically everyone read this one article about the protactile deafblind language. But particularly relevant to mastodon users (AND people working on automated image captioning) is its great discussion of what makes good alt text.
There is such a thing as excess detail! It may make you look like a True Ally, but you're not helping blind people. #screenreaders #accessibility

Vultures are holy creatures.
Tending the dead.
Bowing low.
Bared head.
Whispers to cold flesh,
“Your old name is not your king.
I rename you ‘Everything.’”

This was quite fun to make. #art #digitalart #MastoArt
This is your year non-trans folks. This is the year
to be the one to call out grandma for misgendering your non-binary cousin,
to point out how fucked up your uncle’s transphobic jokes are, or
to tell your mom that her excuses for deadnaming someone aren’t good enough.
It’s time to make this your problem. How are you going to stand up for trans people this holiday?
Ok but is there a word for a humanoid monster stitched together from disparate human parts? Cause the fact that there isn't makes me think that calling such a thing "a frankenstein" is just good linguistic development.
This whole D&D OGL situation is such a bummer. It's a shame there aren't literally thousands of other games for which the question "can I make and sell content for this or stream games of it" would be met with several seconds of blank, uncomprehending blinks, followed by "yes!"

I don't want self-driving cars, I want robots that can sort garbage and recycling so I can go back to dumping everything in one bin.

Taken over a year to get a decent pic of a rifleman/titipounamu. NZ’s smallest bird, with the infuriating habits of hanging out in dense, dark forests and not sitting still. Luckily they’re outrageously cute…

I wouldn't exactly call it "reckless"
