#indiedev working on a space building game "The Black Beyond". Love #scifi and #fantasy but it doesn't love me back. He/him. 🎮🤓🤷‍♂️

@ChristopOConnor @trimet Trimet's board is appointed by the governor, so be sure to let @OregonGovBrown know your thoughts. Trimet's failure is her failure because there's no one else to hold accountable. 🙁

@salamander_labs Best of luck with your project! 👍

@CanadianGreens I know this is a serious topic...but it also shows a sharp decline in photo-posing skills. At least get some chairs or maybe have a beach theme.

@tictoc @business Many westerners idolize Japanese culture, ignoring ultra-nationalism, overt sexism, deadly overworking...

Much like the US, they don't care about international protests because they don't have much regard for "ignorant" outsider opinions.

@TheView This idea that hackers can "get at" anything posted online is absurdly wrong.

Strange how people have absolute trust in online banking and Amazon while also assuming hackers can "get anything" posted to a cloud...

Hold providers responsible instead of blaming victims.

[Eric | 🎮 The Black Beyond @Mean_Games]

@TheView How about putting some blame on the shoddy engineering that permits such hacks? If companies were truly held responsible for your data, they'd invest in security.

Hacks are exploits caused by bad engineering, complacency, and the public refusing to hold providers accountable.

@bopinion Reeking of bias and xenophobia. "Ultimate remedy against the loss of cultural identity..."

Locals hate all the tourists but are utterly powerless to resist their "culture"...

Clearly TV / internet / media isn't a bigger influence, so let's get the poors out of here!

@TheAtlantic @olgakhazan Another way to say this is there's no ideal office temperature. Too hot or cold: it will suck for someone.

It's easier to get warm with a jacket than to get cold. Many offices don't allow shorts.

2% performance? Just block social media: +25% performance...

@Benfogle Entitled climbers and tourists dying on a famous mountain isn't a real problem...Nepal isn't obligated to protect spoiled fools from their arrogance.

Protecting rich thrill-seekers from themselves is a big net loss for humanity in general....

[Eric | 🎮 The Black Beyond @Mean_Games]

@stevekovach Hehe, sorry but...the bros that insisted this was a "revolution" and not to whine about the absurd price can eat shit... 🤣💩

No. One. Needs. This.

Buy an absurdly expensive $1k phone and donate the rest. Live with one screen you brats.

@buskyta @RE_DailyMail I'd also like to point out that the article you linked is written by a site owned by for-profit treatment centers. It isn't exactly an objective medical source....

[Eric | 🎮 The Black Beyond @Mean_Games]

@buskyta @RE_DailyMail Addiction is not all equal. Alcohol and drugs are vastly more destructive for families. How many kids have been beaten by parents addicted to social media or games?

Statements like "social media is just as bad or worse" than drugs and alcohol are grounded in hysteria, not fact.

[Eric | 🎮 The Black Beyond @Mean_Games]

@RE_DailyMail Spoiled, bratty ignorance. A great example of why royalty should vanish.

I'd explain how Fortnite can't compare to how drugs and alcohol break families and kill innocents...but ya'll aren't princes, so you already know.

Go get a job, dude.

@BGRIndia "Update: According to a report by Times of India, the boy’s death had nothing to do with PUBG Mobile and his friends made the video in jest in an attempt to cheer him up."

[Eric | 🎮 The Black Beyond @Mean_Games]

@bopinion There's certainly an epidemic of stupid arrogance. You are not entitled to reject facts just because you lack understanding.

People think they own their kids and that they have some magic power to know what's best for them. Birthing a life doesn't make you smarter than experts.

@emmakennytv @FelicityHannah @ChannelMum Yikes.

Common sense advice: "Don't take advice from people that double-down when implicated in spreading online hoaxes to capitalize off fear"

Really, why would any mom trust someone whose evidence is "people tell me I swear it"...

[Eric | 🎮 The Black Beyond @Mean_Games]

@getresponse Uh, am I missing something or is this really the new design?

Black text on black background is a brave but unreadable choice. 😅

[Eric | 🎮 The Black Beyond @Mean_Games]

@drmoore Many churches emphasize the inherent sinfulness of earthly laws and values.

They shun "the law of man" and tend to preach a shame-oriented view of sexuality.

The result is a systemic enabling of abuse. It should be obvious by now that this isn't a one-off, isolated issue.

[Eric | 🎮 The Black Beyond @Mean_Games]

@PapaJohns Both these sound truly horrible.

I'd almost accept a "hey our founder was an incompetent racist, but that isn't us" sort of apology...

But then I see 'chicken and waffle pizza' and it's clear you'd rather punish humanity even further instead of admitting your mistakes... 🤮

@NationalCorn @budlight @millerlight @Coorslite No one gives two shits about the corn lobby. Shut your corn hole.

Who the fuck is giving likes to a freakin' lobbyist...? Corn bots?
