The main problem I saw with the thread was that it didn't allow for male lookalikes of female indie developers. It seemed to assume that all indie developers have penises.

I honestly think that's looking for issues where there are none. Have you ever been to one of these game events? The majority of indie game developers are male. That isn't to say that it's exclusive, I just think it's unfair to even make the comparison to male exclusivity in this case.

Anyways, I thought you guys were giving Dan a hard time because of his association with me. My bad for assuming that... Even I was a little like, "What the hell are you doing?" when I saw Dan post that, but knowing him I can assure you he didn't mean any harm by it. The reason I posted the www.okcenemies.com site in that thread is because it seemed like the most relevant place for it... That site was something hilarious that I just discovered and I wanted to share.

I think we should have an OKCEnemies thread. I would love it.

Phubans, please stop assuming moves/deletes have to do with you.

That reminds me that on a whim I made some mockups of similar icons I need done for my site that I need to threaten my illustrator into doing for me.

If you want me to make you some icons, let me know. Apparently it's something I do now.

I'll hit you up in a PM once I can channel my cognitive abilities into describing what I'd need.

Nah, Dan has nothing to do with it. There wasn't anything wrong with the original premise of the thread, it just turned to complete shit very quickly.

I didn't say it was a big problem; not something I'd close a thread over. More like something worth being mindful about if we want to create an inclusive culture

There was some sort of virtual strategy board game with a time-splitting mechanic (multiple time paths depending on choice or random dice rolls) on here. It might have been for a competition. I can't seem to find it - anybody knows where it is?

We oppose the teaching of Higher Order Thinking Skills (HOTS) (values clarification), critical thinking skills and similar programs that are simply a relabeling of Outcome-Based Education (OBE) (mastery learning) which focus on behavior modification and have the purpose of challenging the student’s fixed beliefs and undermining parental authority.

Yep. Texas folks have it rough.

Good thinking but imo people should just be lobotomized at birth. No need to make it that complicated.

Did you know that there is a simple mnemonic to remember all the pieces of Tetris?

Oh, turns out it was one of the Three Hundred Mechanics if anyone was wondering.
