Ive had to provide years of tax returns, bank statements, background checks, allow their third party companies to connect to my bank account to even finish an application and still, then pay $50 for the 'admin fee' just to be denied without just cause -- like what do we do -- I have a 760+ credit.

that's so good

i loved the initially launch of this years ago-- havent been following since their first major reset/redesign-- v tragic and sad to see it in such a bad state 😭

Image 1 Concept art sheet for the remastered Cave Dweller Add-On, showcasing four conceptual variations in the top row and five in the bottom row. Top row: 1. A creature close to the original design with slight variations in color and face/teeth. Annotation: “1. On model design. Slight variation to color and face/teeth.” 2. A hunched, beast-like version with a different body structure. Annotation: “2. Wildly different but still ‘cave dweller.’” 3. A version with thinner limbs and a silhouette-focused design. Annotation: “3. 2’s limbs with 1’s silhouette.” 4. A tall, furry-bodied creature with its face obscured by darkness for a menacing effect. Annotation: “2’s furry body, 1’s more classic look, no bending limbs, face obscured by darkness because tall (and it’s intimidating).” Bottom row: 1. The original concept design, close to the top row’s #1, with slight variations in color and face/teeth. 2. A version with higher-set eyes, longer teeth, and longer claws on hands and feet. Annotations: “Eyes moved up for a droopy, saggy face,” “longer teeth and more mismanaged teeth growths and odd angles,” and “longer claws + foot claws (overall it looks more mole-like?).” 3. A more decayed and weathered-looking design. Annotations: “Hole eyes,” “ruined chest, looks like it’s caving in, and tugging at the skin as well,” and “single large claw [talon] on both hands.” 4. The design features blackened textures and fiery accents, giving the creature a smoldering, burned appearance, with orange, dripping eyes. Annotations: “Long,” “bigger arms [drawn arrow pointing at arms],” “more spread out claws?” and “creature of the night.” 5. A green, stretched-out version with stressed veins, closer to the original coloring and design but without claws. Annotations: “‘I stayed up too long’ sorta look, insane ‘eye bags,’” and “no claws, bare club-like limbs, beats player to death with blunt force trauma.”

Image 2 Concept art sheet for the Cave Dweller remaster, highlighting the final design. Top row: 1. The rough-final design concept, with detailed textures and proportions. Annotation #1: “ ‘my final design’ for the dweller concept.” 2. Variation A, a version with transparent skin. Annotation #1: “ ‘translucent look’ (possibly looks like this when in too much natural light [referring to variation B with an arrow pointing to it], like near a lot of lava, or near surface caves with more light shining in from the surface above. Will possibly avoid said surface light.)” 3. Variation B, of the transparent skin further emphasizes internal details. 4. The Cave Dweller being burnt up. Annotation #1: “ ‘burning away’ (burnt look for when the dweller enters sunlight with no cover. It begins to burn away.)” 5. A scene illustrating the reaction to sunlight Annotation #1: “Burst into flames limb by limb when coming into contact with sunlight (always dramatically start with top of head or corner of head bursting with practical fire.)” Bottom row: 1. A design emphasizing hook-like toe claws. Annotation #1: “toe’d claws [arrow pointing at foot details].” 2. A similar version to #1, but with more intricate hand details, deeper texture changes, and longer, straight toe claws. Annotation #1: “HANDS (dirty, damaged claws and hands).” Annotation #2: “(clean, good condition hands) [showcasing hand variations].” Annotation #3: “CLAW SPREAD [double-sided arrow pointing to toe claw variations (splayed and together) and dweller feet design].” Annotation #4: “MOLE LIKE FEET.” 3. A design similar to #1 and #2, but featuring smaller eyes and bulkier toe claws.. 4. Five face variations with annotations (A–E): A: "Restless" – [An intense and alert expression.] B: "Tired" – [A more subdued and weary look.] C: "Dread" – [A deeply fearful or horrified expression.] D: "Caution" – [A wary, observant face.] E: "Lights Out" – [A blank, lifeless appearance, suggesting the creature is incapacitated.]

This would be so lovely for maintaining industry knowledge, too. So often, when folks leave the industry, their knowledge goes with them and that’s nothing short of a tragedy

As we go into the Thanksgiving holiday, here's your annual reminder to know whose land you're on: native-land.ca

Gamers changing a 4+ year old positive review to negative cause, 'Devs abandoned the game.'
Brooo, we finished it 😭

I am finding it quite unbearable to watch Sarah McBride bear the grotesque attack of her colleagues with so much grace. I know it is what we have been taught to expect of trailblazers, but I am increasingly struggling to accept this.

I'd purchase a loaf from you if you popped in front of me while I was lumbering yew trees outside of Varrock

I've seen you make some very bland chicken before! That's a skill!

genuinely never; they've almost always been generated, too. With the LLM boom, it's been even more annoying cause sometimes the recipes are just nonsense

have you really lived if you weren't there for Mystery Sack

A lot of the game dev Starter Packs are *very* light on Black game developers. I know we're only ~5% of the industry, but STILL! 🤭

👀 Peep this Starter Pack to help fix that. We'll be adding more devs as they join Bluesky.

just like licking a fresh CRT TV on Channel 3 🥰🥰🥰

PLS BRO JUST ONE MORE LIKE BRO PLS IM STARVING BRO PLS JUST ONE LIKE ILL GIVE YOU MY KID FOR A REPOST PLS BRO

I love video games and the people who make them 🥰

I'm not for making a big statement because there's no point arguing with these people but if twitter is just going to be all conspiracy racist misogynist dog whistles all the way down, staying there for promo and reach doesn't even make sense - the people who remain won't want my games anyway.

I mourn for what it was and for the inspiration given, but not for recent years.

Their impact is profound; Rooster Teeth has been a teachable moment from best to worst.

With love, I wish success to those who did their best until the bitter end.

CDC officially drops five-day covid isolation guidelines The agency has loosened its isolation recommendations for the first time since 2021 to reflect the changing landscape of covid-19.

It’s official: The CDC has weakened its COVID isolation guidelines, in a move that goes against the science, encourages disease spread, and prioritizes corporate interests, making it easier for bosses to exploit workers.
