A flyer taped to a utility pole
It features John Fetterman’s face with the eyes and mouth replaced by elements from American printed money , under the words “call your senator” and  “I love bombing children with your money while you can’t afford healthcare “ and “call me” with his office number I assume

Spotted this on a pole behind independence hall. I recently saw someone say they found collage to be the best way to work through things and I didn’t really see it at the time but

It’s weird being non-binary because even I don’t know what being non-binary’s supposed to look like. It’s not quite androgyny.

Then I see an NB 2+ years into their transition and it’s like “Oh yeah, THAT person’s non-binary. No doubt about it.”

Indie deckbuilder All Will Rise's dev joins No Games For Genocide boycott and plans to hand back funding it received from Microsoft "We encourage others in the industry to join us and take a stand."

all will rise is handing back Microsoft money & pledging @nogamesforgenocide.com — it’s a difficult thing to do when funding and attention are scarce commodities for indies like us, but we hope more of our fellow devs and indie studios will join us in taking a stand 🔥

Sneak peak into the new couple, Milo and Penelope, since the new stamp is based off them!

I’ve seen more young trans people at this GDC than ever. Students fresh out of college, who started transitioning way earlier than me. I can’t imagine their bravery.

They’re all so adorable, genuine and young. The idea that anyone could hate them. It’s hard not to be angry.

So fucking angry.

A bronze statue of the American business spirit known as ‘The Dealmaker’ in Yerba Buena Gardens. 

The statue’s origins are unknown.

#GDC Pro-Tip: Need luck for the day on your job hunt, or finding a publisher?

Touch the Statue of The Dealmaker in Yerba Buena Gardens and recite the words: “Dealmaker, let’s make a deal!”

This pact lasts until sunrise, is mostly harmless, and ensures good fortune in Business.

once again, kids are not “turned trans” by trans adults!

kids are turned trans as a punishment for disrespecting the bog witch

‘GDC 2026: The Festival™️ of Games’ update: it’s the same. A slightly higher percentage of talks are 30 minutes long, which has likely made them tighter. Otherwise it’s basically the same.

Finished my Lord Exultant, Anastasius Corynth, just in time to show him off with my other (recently rebased) Lord Exultant, Oleander the Usurper, as well as some Kakophoni minis I added Noise Marine backpacks to.

Describe your plot in five words or less - if you dare.

“Dark romantasy navigating queer concubinage.”

TTRPGs being descended from tabletop war games led to an early mechanical emphasis on combat.

The contemporary trend of running in a purely narrative direction is good and has produced fascinating innovations, but will someday look as dated as random encounter tables with 20 goblins.

I've been running gdcparties.com for a few years now. Some shitty company BlueberryAI decided they'd just take all the source code for the work I've done and reskin it, advertising it as their own. Jokes on them...it was still linked to my events spreadsheet, and now their website looks like this 😉

#WIPWednesday my Lord Exultant is slow close to being done that I can taste it! Picked up the big Emperor’s Children at release and this is the first one that feels like it’s almost ready for varnish.

My mom’s dad also had a brief career as a prize fighter during the Great Depression. However he settled into other careers at the behest of his older brothers. There may have been a fistfight involved.
