Someone needs to teach me how to end sentences. The start of my sentences are super clear and I can make a great point but it basically ends then I don't know how to stop it and then so yeah that's sort of it so

My least favourite meme of all time was the 'it is wednesday my dudes' toad and how it would get posted every single week. In New Zealand it was always Thursday. IT WAS ALWAYS THURSDAY!!!!

Sometimes when I talk about my thoughts on community management, people call me idealistic but I'm actually really proud to have made it this far without getting jaded or losing my hope in the goodness of things.

We get to start talking about Arkheron this week 🥹

Arkheron @arkheron.bsky.social · 25d

We're just two days away from revealing Arkheron! While this is the first time the world gets to see it, we've been quietly playtesting for a while now. We are super grateful to everyone who has tried it so far and helped us get it ready for our upcoming Alpha. Thank you!

Rooibus is alright but I’d love a hot drink that I look forward to having, never found a tea like that.

Bex @bexsayswords.bsky.social · 26d

Lol I got it from a random ass cafe that does not specialise in such things (it was a whim because I had already had two coffees and wanted something hot). I’m yet to find a tea that I feel “yay!” about. That’s the dream. I drink green tea in summer because it helps my hayfever but I don’t like it!

Bex @bexsayswords.bsky.social · 26d

I'm toying with the idea of giving up coffee so I tried a matcha latte for the first time and it was like a piece of spinach threw up in my mouth. What's that about? How do you come to enjoy that? I might just switch to decaf coffee.

When I was 20 my anxiety was so bad it was hard to do some ordinary things, the pinnacle of which was going to the post office. I just got back from the post office and realised it was exactly ordinary. It’s not a huge thing, just a nice reminder of how things change over time.

Constantly awed by what's considered news-worthy in New Zealand

A screenshot of a news headline that shows a post of stew and the caption 'What is perpetual stew' and is it safe to eat?

Sometimes I feel like Superman but only so far as taking off my glasses and feeling unrecognizable.

I've been thinking about the games industry a bit and I think maybe where some studios go wrong is in attempting to commodify their community and forgetting that they're providing a service TO the community first and foremost.

Just me and the moon on this walk

A grassy field in the foreground, tall trees in the mid ground and then the pale sky of dawn in the background with the moon small but right above the tree line

I went to a physio today and he put one piece of tape on my knee and now my back doesn’t hurt.
