Coyote vs. ACME is a heartfelt addition to the likes of Who Framed Roger Rabbit?, Cool World, and Space Jam.

Also the score Goes. Hard.

Stay through the credits just to listen.

Coyote vs Acme does so right by Wile E. and everything that makes him special. It's funny, it's heartfelt, it's surprising, and I'm so thankful it got a release. Shout out to the little boy running up and down the aisle like Road Runner before credits even rolled.

Sometimes I make memes to help people understand things at work.
Meme using the format of a 4 panel Calvin and Hobbes strip featuring Calvin's dad explaining to Calvin. Panel 1: Dad walks into frame and Calvin looks up. Dad: Got a problem? I'll show you something interesting. Panel 2: Dad points at a record explanatorily Dad: The two types of problems are ratios and vibes. Economics? Ratios problem. Behavioral economics? Vibes problem. Calvin: Yeah... Panel 3: Calvin's dad continues to explain Dad: Walk into a club and the vibes are off? Ratios problem. Despite its name being ratioed online is a vibes problem. Panel 4: Calvin lies on his bed in the dark, unable to sleep

Just Sunday night things
A paper plate with snack crackers and small slices of Genoa-style salami and pepper-jack cheese, sitting in front of a Tupperware pickle container with slices of cucumber, dill weed, and pepper flakes visible.

Every summer I repost this article on how to spot drowning. Please read it and pass on. In the last few years I’ve had SIX messages from people who saved a kid’s life after clicking on the link from my feed.

Drowning Doesn’t Look Like Drowning
Drowning is not the violent, splashing call for help that most people expect.

I don't think you should focus on making your art good. I think you should focus on making your art sturdy. Archaeologists celebrate whatever they find. They put even the silliest, most pointless little guys into museums. Make your worst art absolutely indestructible.

I was asked to give my thoughts on generative AI usage in games - here they are!
From the article: "I think that until the bubble bursts, AI will be used by quite a few game companies, and perhaps even beyond the bubble," says Brandon Sheffield of Necrosoft Games, which released the RPG Demonschool last year. "Look, I am not a fool – I understand that AI has some uses. Primary among those being the devaluing of work, the cheapening of labour, the laying off of creatives, and the generation of busywork for humans to fix whatever AI generates." "It's also useful for burning through water, raising the prices of RAM and chipsets globally, and poisoning anyone near the data centres that run them. So there are a lot of use cases for AI. From spurring on the death of the creative endeavour to dissolving our economy, AI is absolutely gangbusters at what it does. We don't use it in our studio though."

Compatibility modes:

- Backward: new consumer can read old data
- Forward: old consumer can read new data
- Full: Backward && Forward
- None: "I don't like any of you, I don't want friends anymore"

Adding optional fields is safe, remove is dangerous but possible

If you are scared, I am happy to tell you what experiences are like other experiences.

Getting a tattoo is like getting scraped hard by a child with a fork.

Getting an MRI is like being in a low budget haunted house.

And just like that, we've released our first public demo for Sparrow Warfare. From here on out we're building in the open. And you can be a part of that!
Screenshot of the best deckbuilder to ever grace this planet. In this demo, you can experience the core loop of the game. First, you can expect a tutorial. Then you can play with two different characters for the first half of the regular game, along with the “Daily Flight”: a brand new challenge every single day with a global leaderboard. Hours of playtime await you, and we hope you enjoy every single minute! Sparrow Warfare is a synergy-rich deckbuilder where you make wild combinations of tiles to free birds and battle against the fiendish Storyteller and his minions. In addition, daily flight mode offers endless replayability with different challenging modifiers and global leaderboards. Features: 🃏Deckbuilding: 150+ wildtiles to discover and infinite game-breaking combos to find ♾️ Endless Replayability: progressive difficulty, daily flights & challenging modifiers 🔥 Multiple Playstyles: suit your personal taste, whether you prefer aggression or cunning 🐦‍🔥 Big Bird Action: 100+ birds to free, each one featuring real bird sounds 🤺 Meta-Strategy: experiment with synergies & build new approaches run after run The full game of Sparrow Warfare will include all four different Ways (Fire, Song, Water, and Ghost), the full progression mode up to Level 12 for all four Ways, and Steam achievements. We plan to have full localisation for Chinese, Japanese, Korean, German, Spanish, and Russian in the full game. Sparrow Warfare is developed by just two veteran game developers (Martin Pichlmair & Charlene Putney) who share all of the work between them, but it wouldn’t be as good without the amazing assistance of our loyal playtesters: we love you guys! We truly hope you enjoy our demo. Please wishlist and follow Sparrow Warfare to keep informed about development and help us get the word out there. Fly free little sparrows! Martin & Char

Let the incompetence and cruelty embolden you. If you fancy yourself smarter and more empathetic than these guys (and you are), do not let the result be despair. Make things, apply for jobs, assert yourself. If these freaks deserve a platform, money, stability... don't you? Don't you???

Sesame Street’s Count von Count isn’t just a terrible pun and beloved children’s entertainer. He is in fact suffering from the arithmomania typical in folklore—

—Yes, Mulder, we all know he’s obsessed with counting. You do realize he’s a fictional—

Is he, Scully? *throws a folder*
