Alliance Peacefighter is out now!

This was a labour of love that's taken over 5 years of my spare time, and a game I've wanted to make since I played Wing Commander back in the early nineties. Really hope you like it.

I never really expect major traffic on my blog. I write for me, and if others read, it’s kind of a… bonus?

But occasionally, I’m dead happy when something important breaks through. And there was a big (surprising and really heartwarming) bump in traffic for my piece on Liquid Glass and accessibility.

Thanks to everyone who read it and shared. Much appreciated. :)

There's a type of reply-guy that crawls out of the woodwork when I post anything that might inspire others to take action, and they're deceptively insidious.

Regardless of the topic, they sound like this:

Alice: I don't own a gun because they're for killing and I'm not a fan of killing.
Bob: Then only the bad guys will have guns.

Alice: I deleted my Facebook account.
Bob: If the good people leave then the bad guys win.

Alice: I'm openly queer so others know they're not alone.
Bob: You'll make yourself a target.

In every instance, they defend the shitty state of things by discouraging action and change. It's a reply that is designed to support the default, the current power structure. It's a type of reply meant to de-fang movements.

I've posted about this before, but apparently it bears repeating. Fighting for something takes energy. Change takes sustained energy and momentum. These types of interactions sap energy. They're not posting anything openly disagreeable, they're just dropping little doubt caltrops, little concern anchors—making it harder to keep fighting, harder to gain momentum.

If you're about to jump into a thread and concern troll, don't. I'm fucking sick of it. The rest of us don't have the time or energy to drag your dead weight along.
