From the river to the sea, Palestine will be free 🇵🇸
It’s not surprising to see a man funded by big oil and other anti-progressive establishments peddling bullshit that teaches people how to be complacent idiots that punch down at the poor, non-Christian, and trans communities.
I actually found The Messenger after completing Sea of Stars and being so invested in it. I looked the devs up and decided I’d buy all of their stuff.
I liked The Messenger a lot.
The TikTok ban used to be about trying to squash pro-Palestine sentiments and media. I guess this works too.

As someone about to face a head-on hit from a cat 5 hurricane after just dealing with one… yeah we are all fucked.
Anyone that thinks climate change is a hoax is a complete fucking idiot.
Chikka chikka Slim Weeny!

Thanks! I’m never getting rid of this URL.
Anyone that uses “woke” unironically is not someone I will ever take seriously. Criticizing someone for having awareness of reality is peak modern day anti-intellectualism.
Thanks! Bookmarking those for later.
It’s one of my favorite recent games. It’s so endlessly pleasing.
Aww what a bummer. It’s been really handy and helps me avoid fraud easily with the one-time use cards. You can also make cards with limits set that cannot be exceeded.
If you’re comfortable sharing, where are you at? I can look around for a similar service.
These big companies have it all backwards. We don’t need them; they need us. I don’t suddenly like slot machine video games just because their fucking bean counters say so. Ever since I bought a Steam Deck, I’ve played nothing but indie and old games, and I ain’t going back. You can keep your 3 bundles and your $70-110 price tags. I’ll play 500 hours of Vampire Survivors before I’ll buy another casino that they happened to build a game around.
In the wise words of the Soulsbourne community: GIT GUD (at not making shitty games).
My god, the games she’s missing out on…
If the earth is fucked, the art won’t matter anyway. Fossil fuel companies continue to ruin the planet and expensive art is something that only the wealthiest can afford. So I view this like I do BDS: an attack on the things the wealthy need and want (money) because it’s the only attack vector available to the working class. The art is secondary to the message anyway. You don’t have to support the tactics but it helps to understand how we got here and recognize that extreme responses to extremely dire situations are going to become more commonplace as things inevitably get worse.
Also, the art has protective plexiglass over it and soup wipes off.
Spin up a card using a service like Privacy and use that. I make one-time use cards with it all the time.
But the point is that it shouldn’t replace people. I’ve been a programmer for 20+ years and there’s nothing that will make me want to work with tools I know can eventually replace me or someone else. Aside from that, the energy usage is getting batshit insane while we’re all in the midst of a climate crisis.
Never used that one but I use Copilot daily and have tried similar. Copilot has gotten considerably worse since I started using it (I think because they mixed in ChatGPT results), so I rely on it very little.
These tools make people too dependent upon them, similar to how a lot of us can no longer navigate without map software. It feels like I’m slowly building my own coffin the more I use AI to write my code.
Aside from that, when you start to dig into the energy and water consumption required to run these things, it’s kind of insane.
It’s constantly proving to be a massive disappointment, at least in the hands of capitalists.
My town has some massive trees that I swear drop the temp under them what feels like 5-10 degrees. It could be a sweltering hot day and it’s still lovely under them.
The Wilks brothers are huge investors/funders of PragerU, Donald Trump, Ted Cruz’s 2016 campaign, and are the reason The Daily Wire even exists. Jordan Peterson is now on their payroll.
