Some optimism as a counterweight to, well, everything.

Vonnegut quote about need for expanding ones experiences:

“Practice any art, music, singing, dancing, acting, drawing, painting, sculpting, poetry, fiction, essays, reportage, no matter how well or badly, not to get money and fame, but to experience becoming, to find out what's inside you, to make your soul grow.”


Kurt Vonnegut,

While everyone else is staring at #JeffBezos #MetGala bullshit, you can watch the "Ball without Billionaires"

#Amazon, #WholeFoods, and #WashingtonPost workers and organizers who’ve fought for better working conditions, fair pay & rights for pregnant workers held a #boycott by having their own grand entrances

It's on: JagJam, the gamejam for the Atari Jaguar, started today. If you'd like to code a game for one of the most unique systems of the 90s that initially awed id Software's John Carmack, provoked Sega to rush their 32X to market and even got Sony briefly taking notice while they were finishing their Playstation, this is your chance! 😎 Thanks to Songbird Productions and @ctrlaltrees for being part of this year's JagJam again. And don't worry if you don't have that much time: JagJam runs until the end of October, so you've got six months to go. Looking forward to your entries! 🥳 Please spread the word if this whole thing is something you'd like to see getting more attention. Cheers!
