I kid you not, @itchio has been taken down by @OriginalFunko because they use some trash "AI Powered" Brand Protection Software called @BrandShieldltd that created some bogus Phishing report to our registrar, @iwantmyname, who ignored our response and just disabled the domain

Word of the day is ‘recrudescence’ (17th century): the return of something terrible after a time of reprieve.

I don’t really do endorsements. I’m not shy about sharing my views, but I hate politics and don’t trust most politicians. I also understand that people want to hear from me because I am not just a celebrity, I am a former Republican Governor. My time as Governor taught me to love policy and ignore politics. I’m proud of the work I did to help clean up our air, create jobs, balance the budget, make the biggest infrastructure investment in state history, and take power from the politicians and give it back to the people when it comes to our redistricting process and our primaries in California. That’s policy. It requires working with the other side, not insulting them to win your next election, and I know it isn’t sexy to most people, but I love it when I can help make people’s lives better with policies, like I still do through my institute at USC, where we fight for clean air and stripping the power from the politicians who rig the system against the people. Let me be honest with you: I don’t like either party right now. My Republicans have forgotten the beauty of the free market, driven up deficits, and rejected election results. Democrats aren’t any better at dealing with deficits, and I worry about their local policies hurting our cities with increased crime. It is probably not a surprise that I hate politics more than ever, which, if you are a normal person who isn’t addicted to this crap, you probably understand. I want to tune out. But I can’t. Because rejecting the results of an election is as un-American as it gets. To someone like me who talks to people all over the world and still knows America is the shining city on a hill, calling America is a trash can for the world is so unpatriotic, it makes me furious. And I will always be an American before I am a Republican. That’s why, this week, I am voting for Kamala Harris and Tim Walz. I’m sharing it with all of you because I think there are a lot of you who feel like I do. You don’t recognize our country. And you are right to be furious. For decades, we’ve talked about the national debt. For decades, we’ve talked about comprehensive immigration reform that secures the border while fixing our broken immigration system. And Washington does nothing. The problems just keep rolling, and we all keep getting angrier, because the only people that benefit from problems aren’t you, the people. The only people that benefit from this crap are the politicians who prefer having talking points to win elections to the public service that will make Americans’ lives better. It is a just game to them. But it is life for my fellow Americans. We should be pissed! But a candidate who won’t respect your vote unless it is for him, a candidate who will send his followers to storm the Capitol while he watches with a Diet Coke, a candidate who has shown no ability to work to pass any policy besides a tax cut that helped his donors and other rich people like me but helped no one else else, a candidate who thinks Americans who disagree with him are the bigger enemies than China, Russia, or North Korea - that won’t solve our problems. It will just be four more years of bullshit with no results that makes us angrier and angrier, more divided, and more hateful. We need to close the door on this chapter of American history, and I know that former President Trump won’t do that. He will divide, he will insult, he will find new ways to be more un-American than he already has been, and we, the people, will get nothing but more anger. That’s enough reason for me to share my vote with all of you. I want to move forward as a country, and even though I have plenty of disagreements with their platform, I think the only way to do that is with Harris and Walz. Vote this week. Turn the page and put this junk behind us. And even if you disagree with me, vote, because that’s what we do as Americans. vote.org

This video and the claim it's referencing are absurd. 1. Steams Pricing restriction is only for Steam Key pricing off-platform. Meaning you cannot use Steam as a distribution hub and sell Steam keys off-platform for cheaper. This prevents Valve from getting ripped off and is absolutely fine. They do not dictate the lowest price your game can be sold for unless you are using Steam Keys. 2. Of course Valve doesn't let you buy DLC for Steam Games from rival platforms. That would mean Steam would then have to distribute this DLC despite not making a sale. They have to pay for this bandwidth. For those that think you can do this through Humble Bundle or the like... you are buying a Steam Key there. Don't make me get the stick. 3. The Steam 30% cut is not actually 30%. It's 30% for all sales made on the Steam Platform. If you sell Steam Keys, Valve takes a 0% cut of that transaction. They also don't charge for generating steam keys. The claim that the 30% is egregious is also a subjective opinion as many developers (myself included) find that the value brought by steam is well worth it. You can read everything about Steams partner agreement and more in the Steamworks Documentation. It's public information. partner.steamgames.com/doc/features/k…

Helldivers 2 is now banned for purchase in Estonia, Lithuania, and Latvia as of 7 minutes ago. Still trying to say this is Steams fault? Worst publisher in the industry. steamdb.info/sub/137730/his…

Our stance on AI-Generated Art. As a game about drawing, this is an important topic for us. We will always be advocates for artists - in-game and out-of-game. We do not work with agencies advertising NFT/Blockchain/AI Gen services, and will never add such features to D&G.

I’m seeing some “free market” simps defending Nature’s 12k open access fees. Guess it’s time to bring this back around.

The new World Record #Twitch Hype Train has just finished. Level 106 at 47% over the course of roughly 3 hours. I cannot express my gratitude enough and there are no words to thank you for what you've done here. I grew up on the internet when everyone had a silly website for their cat. It was a place of absurdity and pure creativity good or bad. The wild west. Now we're locked into the megacities of social media platforms and so many of you are afraid to break out and MAKE something for fear of rejection, ridicule, or hate. Don't be afraid. Go make things. It's time to believe in yourself again. I can't wait to see what you do.

Really excited to do this. If you have an awesome indie game go seek out @YourSideQuest at #GDC and get in touch. Hoping to see all the rad stuff you've made and share it with everyone! 💜💛

Nearly everything in Project Ictos, besides UI and some particles, was made with @FreyaHolmer 's Shapes tool! acegikmo.com/shapes/ It made it so simple to have pixel-perfect vector shapes at smaller resolutions! 👀 You can check out the game here! store.steampowered.com/app/2751720/Pr…
