Made a penguin staff twirling motor task. Most of the time, the staff is actually in free spin, and not being held (see slow-mo segment). It's also not animated - it uses real physics (see end). 🐧

Honestly, AI slop PRs are becoming increasingly draining and demoralizing for #Godot maintainers.
If you want to help, more funding so we can pay more maintainers to deal with the slop (on top of everything we do already) is the only viable solution I can think of:

Some shader work I did this past week. Wanted to create a paint splitting effect for the wood in the scene. Think it came out pretty nice, but might make a few more tweaks later down the line 😊
With the state of the creative industries it’s bit confusing to see people get pissed at something being made. I for one am glad people get a chance to make something and use their skills even if what they make is not for me. Better that than seeing more job losses in the arts.
We really just be minding our business as black people and next thing you know it’s “n word here” “n word there” like leave us alone

Again, I cannot emphasize enough: do not go to the US even if you're privileged enough to have never been scared or worried of a border crossing in you're life. Do not go ESPECIALLY for something as optional & outrageously expensive as GDC.

Bluesky was literally meant to be a cryptobro social network for grifters, LinkedIn sludge, and libertarians who know way too much about age of consent laws.
Jack Dorsey *left* when instead of weird and off-putting cryptonerds, trans people started hanging out here.

Hey y'all.
A South African dev released a blackity black game during BHM and it's currently getting the usual suspects in the reviews.
Imma grab this up myself anyway, but can we all be some chums and help push the racists out of the reviews? 🙂

In Boston ICE randomly pulled over this huge white Irish guy with a Mass drivers license, 20 years in the states, legal status, pending green card and have held him for 5 months, his citizen wife paid a $4k bond that was ignored(!) ICE forged his signature on deportation agreement, no appeal
I'm curious how countries become associated with colors not in their flag. Like Netherlands and that bright orange and Australia with that pretty green. I know everybody is some flavor of red/white/blue and distinction is nice but why those colors for those countries specifically?
Only just got home and didn't realise my phone was popping off - now I know why 🤣
We're live - chatting with @samanthabeart.bsky.social was one of the highlights of my year, and I had a brilliant time with a brilliant host! Head over and check out the interview! 👇🏿

I'm in a 40 day exercise w/ my yoga studio.

Dear reader, the world needs kindness, empathy, & wisdom.
Wasn't the cancelled Perfect Dark "AAAA"?
ICE agents fled from the crowd and left behind their CONOPS battle plan for Minneapolis, including agent's names, hotel rooms, phone numbers, boxes of license plates, and tac radio frequencies.

BREAKING: Staggering scenes as brave Iranians stand up to their illegitimate government in Tehran... um, hang on, I'm being told this is actually Minneapolis. Forget I said anything...
Convienently, there is no email to contact Epic Games support to file a complaint, nor is there a way to get to a human without going through an irritating AI chatbot.
