Just finished playing @codemonkey_uk brilliant murder mystery game, Getting Away with Murder. I played a snooty butler who was murdered and then a scandalous french madame.

Replying to @lloyd_rm
@lloyd_rm as my MP, will you call on @Jeremy_Hunt to increase the Carer's Allowance earnings limit to £199.50 per week (21 hrs at NLW) in his Autumn Budget so carers can earn more without losing out on support? More info @contactfamilies contact.org.uk/carers

So, I've been running mastodon.gamedev.place/ since late 2017. Beginning of this year, it was very slowly limping along, and I thought maybe there's no point. But then Things happened, and it's almost 10k users right now. Conversations & activity finally seems to be picking up.

Memo to the media: Please don't say inflation is at a 40-year high without also mentioning that corporate profits are at a 70-year high. Give the people the full picture.

Today feels like an important day to remind you of this academic textbook about Mario's butt. Yes, it's a real book that exists.

Today’s sad Disco Elysium news is a reminder to support individuals, not game studios. Studios transform between projects. The “follow up to your favorite game” is often made by an entirely new team. Find the creators you appreciate and follow them, wherever art takes them.

Toxic workers are destructive. Getting rid of of them (even productive ones) helps more than hiring more superstars in a study of 58k service workers: 🌟A top 1% superstar upped performance by $5,300 💀A toxic worker costs $12,800 in extra turnover alone! hbs.edu/ris/Publication%20Fi…
