2026 is already really hard on everyone right now, we don't need to lose any more freedoms.
It really is just money in the pocket for indies; so many folks *want the thing*, they just haven't heard of it, in my experience.
In Reddit in particular, self-promotion is heavily discouraged, so we rely heavily on fans and peers to bring up our work when relevant.
I am shocked to learn this is actually underestimating costs, because it ignores the infrastructure costs.
This video is lowballing it.
I know calling reps is very nerve racking. You're not sure what's the right thing to say, and tbh having a script thrown at me makes things just as nerve racking.
I called today, and I figured I'd write up a transcript of how my call went down. Hopefully it helps demystify the process
Design a car. Novel type of windshield, never fogs up. Rest of it runs pretty meh. Dozens have exploded in a fireball killing the occupants. "OK so it's not perfect yet.", says the CEO. Regulators nod sagely. "Making cars is hard", they mumble. Explosions continue. Such is the price of progress.
My entire adult life
It’s funny if you call PayPal or visa lines and bring this up asking why they claim “adult illustrations” is against their regulations but betting on the death of kids is totally fine. They don’t have an answer.
In fact yall should call them at least once a day with this :)
The SAVE Act is an election power grab that could block millions of eligible voters.
Let’s be clear: we’ve already seen U.S. citizens detained by ICE despite having proof of citizenship. Now we’re supposed to trust this same government to police paperwork at the ballot box? tinyurl.com/yhwj7b77
The ruling class has never hated sex or sexuality or porn, they just want complete iron-fisted control over it which means no one involved in it gets to have personal or bodily autonomy
"microtransactions in games started by cabal of pedophile elites for the purpose of indoctrinating kids into an economy"
Ok. Well, we all knew it was evil somehow but I really didn't expect Epstein to be responsible for why video games are bad now. That's just not what I would've thought.

There are almost 900 games submitted to the No ICE in Minnesota charity bundle game jam with 8 days left to join!
Thank you all so much for spreading the word and joining the bundle
to support Immigrant Law Center of Minnesota 🖤
I can't trust politicians who are anti-trans. Not because I'm "only searching for perfection" which is what centrists will be accusing me of for the rest of my life, it's because if you're not pro-trans you'll be garbage on lots of other issues too. Being anti-trans NEVER exists in a vacuum.
Absolutely insane messaging to write this long detailed account of all the violent horrors being inflicted on your voters and capping it off with "pls don't do anything about it"
i feel like the next US presidency is up for grabs for any democratic politician with enough of a spine to push consistently for abolishing ICE. they select well for cowards though so don't bet on it
Absolutely despicable.
There seemingly is no limit to the depths of depravity the administration will go to cover for their propaganda machine.
We need to arrest and prosecute the federal agent that murdered Renee Nicole Good. And we need trials for those involved.

everyone must stop thinking like this. nobody is illegal. the united states' immigration policies have been cruel and inhumane regardless of who the president is. demand better than the lesser evil
The person who was shot in the face here is a local organizer who has been very active in the Movement for Black lives.
whole lot of ICE pricks just saw that they can murder someone and not only not be arrested, but the president will call them a hero who saved the day. they even have a blueprint for how to shoot people they want to. extremely bad precedent
Do not give any ground on this. Instead, incorporate their utter inhumanity into your critique—they are what they do: ICE are kidnappers and murders, it is their function; Bari Weiss’ Free Press excuse ICE’s kidnapping and murdering, it is its function. They lack any legitimacy and must be stopped.
Distraught woman says ICE killed her wife in video after deadly Minneapolis shooting "They killed my wife," the distraught woman says, adding, "They shot her in the head." An ICE agent shot and killed a 37-year-old woman who was driving an SUV in Minneapolis on Wednesday. / Screenshot/@Breaking911
"They killed my wife. I don't know what to do," the woman says through sobs in the footage, with a damaged SUV visible in the distance behind her. "We stopped to videotape, and they shot her in the head," the woman cries. "We have a six-year-old at school," she says, almost unable to breathe, as a chaotic scene in which federal officers prevented at least one doctor who was on the scene from assisting the shot victim unfolds. "We're new here," the distraught woman says in despair.
You and your wife drop your 6-year-old off at school. You just moved here. You see ICE terrorizing your new neighbors. You film them, as is your legal right. Your wife complies with orders. She is then shot in the head. You still have to pick up your child later today.
This could be you.

Despite Kickstarter more recently saying they "support adult projects" it seems that Stripe is taking down projects way more liberally then they used to.

I’m at Times Square, where an emergency “No War On Venezuela” protest just took to the street. Easily a thousand people here in real-feel 20°F weather.
“No more coups, no more wars, Venezuela’s not yours!”
“No boots on the ground no bombs in the air, U.S. out of everywhere!”
If you're an American (or from another similar western nation) I cannot stress enough that you should look into the history of the atrocities the USA has committed in South America. This is not new and we cannot let the horrific crimes perpetuated in this nation's name repeat
from someone who was in school for the beginning of the "war on terror," please. please please please. talk to teenagers in your life about not joining the us military. about not letting themselves be groomed by recruiters in schools. they're going to want soldiers, and they always start young.
Chavez in 2009, while being labelled as paranoid, outlines exactly what is happening today.
