One again I'm calling for your support as we fundraise for #Movember2026
Shoeys, pack openings and beanboozles are on the menu but I'm taking suggestions on milestones.
I think we need to work in the one chip challenge.👀
Live in a sec with my boy @ievenliftbro.
This Australian's reply to Trump's rant about “NATO not being there for America” is perfect.
"Mate. You run a country with 600,000 homeless people sleeping on the street tonight. A country where 40% of adults can't cover a $400 emergency without borrowing money. A country where insulin costs more than a car payment and people are rationing it to survive.
A country where medical debt is the number 1 cause of bankruptcy. A country where women are dying in hospital car parks because doctors are too scared of abortion laws to treat a miscarriage.
You lock up more of your own citizens than any nation on earth. More than China. More than Russia. More than North Korea. The land of the free has 2 million people in cages, and a quarter of them haven't even been convicted of anything. They're just too poor to make bail.
Your life expectancy is going backwards. You're the only developed nation where that's happening. Your infant mortality rate is worse than Cuba's. Your kids do active shooter drills between maths and English while you sell the gunmaker's stock to your mates.
Your minimum wage hasn't moved in 15 years. You've got teachers working 2 jobs and veterans sleeping under bridges and you just spent a trillion dollars flattening a country that didn't attack you.
And you’ve got a convicted felon, adjudicated rapist, paedophile protecting, porn star shagging, insurrectionist, running the biggest dumpster fire war campaign since the Taliban in Afghanistan thanked you very much for losing again.
And you're calling Greenland poorly run?
Greenland has universal healthcare. Free education. One of the lowest incarceration rates in the world. Nobody goes bankrupt there because they got sick. Nobody dies in a waiting room because their insurance said no.
'NATO wasn't there when we needed them." When exactly was that, champ? September 11? Because NATO invoked Article 5 for the first and only time in history FOR YOU.
Soldiers from dozens of countries deployed, fought, bled, and died in Afghanistan FOR YOU. Australia wasn't even in NATO and we still showed up. For 20 years.
And you pulled out at 2am without telling anyone and left them to deal with the mess.
So maybe before you start calling other countries poorly run, have a look at your own backyard, you spray-tanned aluminium siding salesman. The only thing poorly run in this picture is your fucking mouth."

NOTHING peeves me more than seeing streamers complain that their viewers aren’t doing “enough” for them. 💔☹️
As a streamer, I have always had the mindset that NOBODY owes me anything. Having even 1 person interested in my life is a blessing. 😭😭😭
If you are mad at your viewers who don’t lurk, don’t gift, or leave after you swap games, that is a reflection of you NOT them. 👎
If the AI is making the assets and game for you... you're not the creator.. You're a prompt jockey.
Actual creators are taking the hit, as we damage the inherit value of art and human qualities in what we make.
If dev is quick and cheap, then so game will be too.
Tim's making a really important point here and I think people fundamentally misunderstand it.
Let's paint a scenario. You are an indie developer and you want to make a game.
Traditional game development will take you 1 year and cost you $200,000 in outsourcing costs to buy art, animation, and additional programming resources.
AI assisted game development will take you 3 months and cost you $50,000 in credits + some additional resources.
In a good scenario your game could make $200,000 and break even, but in many scenarios you mortgage your house and no one sees your game and you are out your savings.
Now, with the anti-AI mania, Valve is forcing real economic harm on you because you get the equivalent of hate mobs at your door for your choice of tooling.
Your economic viability is harmed because Valve chooses to put a label on you that generates negative attention. It makes your economics worse.
Anti-AI proponents will point out that this proves their hate campaigns work. The appeal is not to them, because they are morons, but to developers to stand up to Valve and say remove these labels so that we can have livelihoods. And Valve makes money of you either way.
Stand up for your rights, devs!
Catching up on all this. On vacation with the wife and son.
So here’s where I am. GCX was an event built on community. From my perspective this looks like we got investment and changed our tone. That will not fly from my end.
@kevinxvision has set up a meeting on Monday to speak with artists (he’s been out of town all week) to come to a solution while also investigating why the fuck a valued member of our community felt slighted.
I’m not even sure where when or how this shift happened. I’m not even in a place to make an executive decision. But I will be an absolute thorn until our community trusts they are the reason we exist.
OH MY!
HOLY MOLY AHHHHH!! I genuinely don’t think we’d get it first go! 🤯
Thank you soo much for the love and support, not just in streams but here and across all the platforms! We have the best community and friends who have non stop supported and I couldn’t have done this without you all, truly! I’m forever grateful and can’t wait to celebrate on stream Friday!
I HAVE NO MORE WORDS EEEEEEKKKKKK!
THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!!
In Baldur's Gate 3 you can be trans and queer and that game sold over 20 mil copies. The chuds saying the reason Bioware didn't sell well with their recent games was because of "activism" are absolutele delusional troglodytes the need to go outside.
