All these comments saying they aren't necessarily the intended demographic... As a counterpart, I definitely am. I'm a 30-something, disabled, nonbinary trans man who paused my transition twice for reasons like this. For fear of losing community, fear of being alone, being "unlovable". This hits really fucking hard. The number of things I've gone to that are for "women and nonbinary people" and thought about "what happens when I get to the point that I consistently pass as male? Do I no longer belong there? Will I have to once again justify my existence, my presence in this place I am meant to feel safe in?
I've been told, to my face, that I'm not a game developer, or that my 14+ years of writing and making narrative games means nothing because there's "no audience for the games about trans masculinity you want to focus on now."
Comments like these are what matter to me.

A graph of gas prices climbing precipitously starting in 2003
Apropos of nothing, when we invaded Iraq gas prices rose precipitously, and they never came back down to prewar levels, ever.
And I thought "First day of GDC/first day of #2026MMM" was a busy day!
This puts me at 10 people released. I filed my 1st habeas petition 29 days ago. I am an incredibly small-time, nobody lawyer who knew nothing about immigration law the day I submitted that case. I barely know any more today. I had never sued the federal government and now I've beaten them 10 times.
the dialogue in this photo is literally beyond parody

Does anyone have more information on which specific areas are cordoned off? Specifically I'm wondering about the terraced area on the north side and the tables area to the northeast, as possible alternate meeting areas.
I don't know! Lost Levels has always been on the Yerba Buena stage and if it moves I don't think people will know where to find it.
Well, this is a problem for Lost Levels, the Trinket Trade, the Thinky Games meetup, and all the other events that traditionally take place at Yerba Buena and have for many years.

@mammalssuck.bsky.social Has an MMM competitor ever been rolled out of the field of battle?
