We need to stop buying into the idea that we can go over the carbon limit as long as we "rebound back with carbon capture."

This isn't supported by any climate science and is a lie told by oil execs.

Not to mention how costly ineffective carbon capture already is compared to renewables.

Today, I went to a Renaissance fair, perused the local farmers market and craft area, witnessed a full armored combat tournament, saw a trebuchet fire, and then watched a joust.

Overall, it was a good time. I do recommend it.

A cover image for the 2D puzzle platformer game, Mushroam, by SkyPyre Studios. The colourful logo sits next to a mushroom person. This person is called Mush and is the player character. They are orange with a purple scarf, and is carrying a turquoise backpack. They are ready for an adventure. Behind Mush is a large dark pixel art cavern depicting distant ruins and roots of the underground.

I'm putting together a Canada game dev starter pack in response to this idiotic tariff war so people can support Canada-based game devs through follows / purchases if they choose to.

Reply if you're a game dev in Canada and you want to be on it. Please repost. Thanks!
