happy mint and basil monday everyone !!

At first while watching the episode I thought, oh thank god you didn’t go through the same insane ordeal as that one time in sekiro. How silly of me to think that, in creating something special, you wouldn’t find a way to give yourself even more work than before😭

Oh, so you brought this upon us

coming straight from YOUR HOUSE

Outlook wasn’t made with human persons in mind

It’s also shelter dog and southern hemisphere horse birthday day

Wise words

Wait that’s happening now??
😭 something is always stopping me from participating in game jams

The Pedro Pascal smear campaign And sexual harassment allegations against a leftist influencer.

Pedro Pascal spoke up for trans rights and has been targeted with a smear campaign as a result. False allegations lobbed by TERFs have since become a meme and entered the YouTube podcast sphere—not unlike the previous anti-MeToo smear campaigns I’ve covered.

Keep up the pressure! #SaveSpeech

LinkedIn is an elaborate ARG I’ve decided

📢 ISO of Devs Affected by Itch 📢

If your game got:
• Deindexed

Especially if you make Adult &/or LGBTQ+ #IndieGame or #VisualNovel, I want to talk to you.

🗣️ Please reply below with how you were affected. This is for a #Journalism piece.

🔁 RTs Appreciated 🔁

instead of vowing to take itch down with your justified anger, redirect that anger at the institutions who are directly responsible for strong arming every single platform that sells adult and/or queer art:

Corp accountant here, Investor Relations is the team that is legally obligated to handle investor concerns.
If you have a fund with MC or Visa in it, I suggest calling and demanding to know what your compensation will be for the reduction in Earnings Per Share caused by cutting off income streams (:

Mastercard: Sex Work is Work. End Your Unjust Policy. Mastercard's new policy unfairly targets the adult content industry, making sex workers more vulnerable, especially Black trans women. It must be stopped.

This itch.io NSFW policy change is unfortunately nothing new, the problem isn't the platforms themselves but rather Visa/MC strong-arming these services into revising their NSFW policies.
So if you're eligible I invite you to sign this ACLU petition: action.aclu.org/petition/mas...

This Week in Videogames - TWIV Covering the important things happening in the world of videogames. News, reviews, and insights without ads or filler content.

Hello. About a year and a half ago, some guy called Ralph asked me if I wanted to make a new videogame website.

We're launching it today. Maybe you can even visit it if people stop hammering the server for a second.

A picture from a trail cam of a black bear soakin' it up in a bog, his little back feeties, head, and paws can be seen up over the top of the water. He is surrounded by reeds and appears to not have a care in the world. God i wish that were me at all times.

Not to be hyperbolic but this is literally how i'm trying to be

Too warm
