The whole point of defending the right for uncomfortable, or even reprehensible fiction to have the right to exist isnt that its all cool and nothing is ever wrong with it

Its that government/corpo organizations will NEVER look at things with the """nuance""" you think is so self evident

insane that we got confirmation that a cabal of pedophiles is in fact running the western world and the king of the pedophiles just maybe started a world war and the conspiracy theory everyone spent the last week talking about is that jim carrey was replaced by a french-speaking clone

greetings to everyone who followed me because of the what a game dev looks like hashtag, i post mostly about disability, very rarely about game dev, and sometimes about kink, just infrequently enough to lull people into a false sense of security

maybe it's because i've only been a chair user for five years now but it feels like my subconscious is the coyote running off the cliff, not having looked down – the fact that i'm walking is never an issue until the moment i remember i can't

do other people get these? when my dreams flash back to a time pre-chair, i become violently cognizant of the missing chair mid-way through, to disastrous results. i used to do this with masking during early covid and with "who's taking care of my cat right now?"

had the popular recurring dream last night where i (a woman in my mid forties) have to go back to high school (an all-boys private school) and then mid-way through i realize i've left my wheelchair at home for some reason and have a panic attack

boyfriend (also disabled!) and i are planning on moving in together later this year and i'm sort of terrified of them having to see me 24/7

one of the things that's just true about being disabled is that my friends will always see me at my best, my most put together, my highest spoons. when i'm at my worst, they won't see me; the people who love me never have to see just how bad it is a lot of the time

this is #WhatAGameDevLooksLike. my games are taught in schools, i'm the published author of six books on game design, taught game design for nine years, and one of my games was in a recent movie. i'm in my ninth month of unemployment. what a cool field to work in

in 2026 "X is just a distraction from Y!" is just as crazy to me as "X was an inside job." two things can be true at the same time. come on

gdc seems even more miserable than usual this year. is there even a games industry at this point?

genuinely who cares whether the xbox gets better or worse, microsoft games is a priority target for the bds movement.

it's america in 2026 and i lost my job for being disabled, i can't afford my rent and healthcare but my government isn't helping anyone because they're spending all our money poisoning a city on the other side of the world so the pedophile president can get into heaven somehow
