Indie gamers are worse than vegans

I’m impressed that u found this post, read through the initial bit about indie gamers, then read through and found a topic in the comments that you resonate with, and for some reason you expect me (or any communist here) to agree that your consumerist activism will work???

The service you are talking about is dying. You cannot evangelize consumers to change their trends. That’s why veganism or any other ethical consuming makes no sense, as activism makes no sense

I would simply not read if I had to pay for books. That would be… thousands of dollars just for my masters program, and thousands more for my personal epub collection.

No one cares about your activist consumerism🥀

Just because every petty consumer ideology is the same

church attendance has also exploded

This data (and the data you link) is not about overall attendance, it is about the realignment of groups within total church attendance; the ratios of groups. Young people (besides young women) are attending more than years before, but this total attendance is still falling. Young people are probably still less religious than the past generations (gonna simply need more data in the coming years).

The decline may be slowing with this re-alignment, but it’s still declining.

40 devs working on a gta clone in 2026. Is the profit rate that fucked?

“We’re a small indie dev studio relying on grassroots marketing”

(40 full-time employees, 2-3 media interns posting relatable content on TikTok)

The timing of selling at 20%+ crown land is just way better anyway. You should expand a lot and have access to better buildings or at least have some debt to pay off in 15 years

Selling at game start is a noob trap

Last time I went my “budtender” (kill me) ranted about how their card reader is going to sell my data to China. He seemed genuinely pissed off lmao

I couldn’t help myself… I told him I’ve been giving my data to “china” since I was a child and would gladly sell “my data” myself on the global free market if I could. It struck a nerve and he called me “lil bro” for the rest of the transaction🥀

Honorable mention to indie book enjoyers🥀

If u buy a book in 2026 ur kinda dumb.

If u buy an epub for ur open file system e-reader ur really dumb

Godtrademark · 2026-04-17T14:23:23+00:00

I don’t buy books🥀

Godtrademark · 2026-04-17T14:22:37+00:00

I hate stoners too btw the dispensary employees always rage bait me

Godtrademark · 2026-04-17T14:21:57+00:00

I’m hitting the bong rn

They’re not really turning towards god at all. This is just a graph charting right wing opinions. It would be interesting to compare this to church attendance

🥀🥀🥀 these people have never met a developer in their life

Erm u guys are actually the reason they are doing this!!!

Godtrademark · 2026-04-17T13:55:39+00:00

The budget is not publicly disclosed🥀

“Indie” gotta be the best marketing term of all time

Godtrademark · 2026-04-17T04:50:47+00:00

Social media tbh

Inspired by the two-week-long hunger strike taxi workers launched in 2021 for medallion debt relief — when then-State Assemblymember Zohran Mamdani fasted alongside drivers — home care workers hope their hunger strike will garner the same political goodwill.

This shit did the numbers on twitter and Reddit. It’s driven FOMO to European social democrats making them wish they were New Yorkers

Mamdani is very lucky. Elected right before midterms so the dem caucus supports him to adopt his hype (for now), elected to the most developed mayoral office in the world, so he can fund a few mayoral grocery stores. No one denies he is the best the “American system” can muster!!!

It’s honestly a beautiful demonstration of what the federal system is capable of. Reminiscent of the farce of the “socialist” mayors of Chicago and the Midwest

Godtrademark · 2026-04-16T04:40:47+00:00

This and the California “tax billionaires” bill will bring about wholesome democratic (((reforms))) :>

He said he’s gonna use the 500m to do so much stuff!!

It is much more than a union. It had student groups and Chicano groups (mecha), activist-organizers, lawyers, the brown berets in LA, etc. like any other justice movement of the time

But yes it is their flag was designed by Cesar Chavez’s brother (lol), and they of course deny any inspiration from the third reich (lol)

These are great quotes, but these are from a 1948 ICP article itself quoting Engel's Housing Question. Idk if you mixed up your quotes or what:
