I'm really struggling here. Between glasses last month and insurance this month I am really really really really stressed. I wrote an article last month and I'm working on a new one for before insurance comes but I need about $900, which is about 45 people tipping $20 to paypal.me/stompsite

I'm really stressed about insurance this month. I write articles as a way to earn enough to cover the bills, but last months article didn't make as much as I needed it to cause I published it mid month. docseuss.medium.com/i-completed-... If you like it, please share and tip, I need about $1200

anthropic's exploding lol it went public, we find out the company's debts are like $650 billion dollars. It's valuation was based on like a ton of IOUs. a week ago those IOU holders were selling them off. in china right now, the bubble is very much popping and $450 billion vanished overnight. hm

i think pink floyd is probably my favorite of 'the greats' but i think ac/dc is probably the band that sounds the most like rock & roll out of all of the rock and roll bands

I think there are lots of ways to do more deep cuts but we are just speaking on that very specific "they're gonna get played at like an airshow or a sporting event or really on the nose for an expensive trailer for iron man or something" bands

This is worth noting for a lot of people, really. If you're following artists who aren't putting stuff behind paywalls, consider throwing them some tips anyway as a thank-you to ensure they keep making the stuff you like!

This is like being super pissed the burger joint you loved closed down after letting a stranger convince you you didnt like it, but now you want the burger, but no matter how much you ask the taco stand to make a burger they can't get it right cuz you forgot SpongeBob LOVED making that burger.

So my understanding is that there are a few camps of savemasseffect- like the one Kala is on and did the billboard. THAT one is prodevs. The big petition is just a guy, and per the petition, just wants the game made, even if its another studio.

I am by no means a smart man, but “Running for president to avoid imprisonment” should really be removed as a viable plan.

Flávio Bolsonaro had his passport confiscated by the Brazilian fed police as his brother Eduardo told him to flee to the US. He is tied to paramilitary gangs, is being investigated & lost his legislative immunity when he left the Senate to run for president. paydayreport.com/brazilian-fe...

sorry i need to publicly be a hater for a second but what do you mean the giant 230k+ signature save mass effect petition is only about the IP and not the devs that were laid off

"britan stood alone against the might of germany" right, two things: 1) the large amount of canadian, american, and polish pilots who came to help, among others (I think czech as well? I forget, it's late in the day and I'm wiped out) 2) britain was at the time still quite a big empire

sometimes you'd think the only accomplishment britain ever actually did was the battle of britain and even that one isn't entirely theirs yeah I was reading about the lend-lease program

in 2020 i awoke in a cold sweat with the realisation that the burger chain in Interstate '76 has the same name as the antagonist burger chain in Good Burger (1997), googled it, and stumbled upon someone's tripod site, which, blowing my own mind, i remembered visiting as a kid in like 1998.

Politico wrote up Zohran playing basketball with the uncovering-a-big-scandal tone the same day the NYTimes wrote up "credible allegation that The President of the United States raped a woman" as a political strategy story. Broken media in a nutshell

New: Mayor Zohran Mamdani and a group of his friends have been secretly using the NYPD Police Academy’s gymnasium in Queens to play pickup basketball — scrambling some operations at the facility. w/ @grahamrayman.bsky.social & Joe Anuta www.politico.com/news/2026/10...

i will never not be annoyed that I graduated with a 3.84 average GPA, .1 below honors student, because A) I chose a teacher who was notoriously tough (he was also the guy who translated ff7, michael baskett) and B) because my disability had me wiped the fuck out so near the end I struggled

it doesn't MATTER, right? I get that. no one cares. It's not like Vanity Fair's gonna open a piece on me with "man, this dude from kansas got a 3.84 gpa" but I think some part of me is ~pissed~ at how close I was to being an honors student. you can't go back and change that shit lol

Everyone has strong feelings about their personal button-religion, so here you go, I implemented a settings menu. If I analyze my feedback I think people would much rather have only a button menu then a playable game. #gamedev #solodev #indiegame
