Yesterday I was talking about how every question I've had about @godotengine was easily answered in the documentation.

Today I tried to use the debugger for the first time and found an exception: I can't get the debugger to do anything. Wrote it up here.

reddit.com/r/godot/commen…
If anybody in the #GodotEngine @godotengine community on Twitter has any insights into this, I'd appreciate it. This is with 3.5.1.stable.official

And my problem is resolved. It turns out the Godot debugger connects to the game that is being ran from it as a server, and the default connection settings weren't working.

The Godot debugger is as marvelous as the documentation. So many puzzling problems with my code immediately resolved. I had no idea what I had been missing.

I'm working on a long(-ish) post, that might go up as a thread on here or an actual post on my Patreon. Possibly both.

It's taking me a while to pull together the words, for a reason that's very familiar to me: I'm trying to do a couple very different things at once.
And striking the right balance or finding which of those things to focus on... I keep going around in circles in my head.

So I'm taking those words out of my head and putting them on Twitter, which is how I give that kind of process form.
The two big themes I'm trying to balance here are:

1. I am a whirling dynamo of creative possibilities and my Patreon is about to become a very exciting place where you can follow and enjoy my work, and optionally support it.

2. I can create nothing because I am drowning. Help.

I heard she had some good tweets,
I heard she had a brand
and so I clicked and gave a follow
and scrolled with my phone in hand

And there she was, this author
a mother to dinos

swiping my pain with her fingers,
typing my life with her words,
killing me softly with her tweets...
me: We could just say this tweet is relatable.

my brain: But what if we filled the available character limit with a song reference?
In all seriousness, I've been slowly coming to an understanding that the way my brain relates to deadlines might have something to do with the way I almost compulsively put off tasks that are a definite but temporally imprecise necessity until they're too late.

Oof.

This thing that put me off about Tribel?

I just found out that it was founded by the Occupy Democrats guy.

This is not the same kind or level of dealbreaker as finding out a social media site is run by a transphobic white supremacist.

But... yeah, that's the vibe.
I.e., the "We don't like bad people who do bad things. RETWEET IF YOU THINK WE SHOULD IMPLEMENT A POORLY THOUGHT OUT, REACTIONARY "SOLUTION" TO THIS." to guarantee a ton of retweets and that most of the people who disagree with you will quote tweet schtick.
Capitalizing on an interest in finding a Twitter alternative by antagonizing a bunch of Trumpers with your claims of being the bigotry-free alternative while turning tweeted links to your site to a preview that says "I recommend the SMARTER site" is a very similar gameplan.

Ryan Murphy's The House That Makes Everybody Be Very Normal About The House
I have mixed feelings about the show as a whole (big surprise, Ryan Murphy Netflix show) but the ending... 10/10, perfect, no notes.

I am very into how people solve the problem of ending a story when they don't know the ending, when the story won't allow for a satisfying one.
If you went in expecting a true crime drama and didn't pick up on the subtle cues that it's a Murphy melodrama in a slightly toned down fright wig, I can understand being disappointed or confused.

"You can't imagine a world where disabled people don't need exploitative gig services."

No, I can do so very easily. It's like the old Jack Handy bit: "It's easy to wish for more money. That's what I like about it: it's easy, just sitting around, wishing for all that money."
I can easily imagine a world where nobody needs to rely on InstaCart or its ilk to get their groceries, and nobody has to shop and drive for InstaCart, and there isn't any InstaCart.

My imagination is pretty great. I love it. I use it all the time.

But it does have limits.
Among the things my imagination can't do... and I know this, because I have tried, probably more extensively than most people would have, or would admit to... is transport physical objects from one point. Or remove a physical limitation from myself or anybody else.

Just made my first post on @TribelSocial.

It's about what's been happening with my efforts to learn Unity, specifically that I switched from Unity to @godotengine after hitting a mental wall on getting simple 2D sprite and tile stuff to work in Unity.

post.tribel.com/public/posts/2…
I'm finding @TribelSocial not super easy or intuitive to navigate. There doesn't seem to be a way to "click through to" a post when I'm looking at the Posts section on my page/wall... I had to hit Share to get the URL to copy for this tweet.

But if you're on
@TribelSocial
or you're signing up, you should be able to follow me there from tribel.com/Alexandraae8b3…. I'll be tweeting links to significant posts I make there, but I know it's easy to miss tweets.
