Super psyched that the panel we had at PAX West this year on substance use depictions games is now on the @officialpax.bsky.social YouTube! It’s a topic that is super important to me so please check it out and share if you are so inclined! youtu.be/fP6PHIXC0wU?...

This is such a misunderstanding of why writers, artists, and designers do research to begin with, which is to find something unexpected, not capture the average or find reference for the default.

And, as always, the biggest misapprehension: We don’t want to NOT do this part. It’s fun to learn shit
Anyone who supports this is an embarrassment. "Instead of typing it out they'll generate their idea"? Are you insane?

Call yourself whatever you want but you aren't creatives, that's for sure.

Every year when writing Holiday cards a I think “we have to get an address stamp” and then completely forget about it until the next year.

I must confess that was my fault that Long Island post hardcore band Agent did not have the physical copies of their 7” Awake in Their World at their record release show in 2009.

it's really funny that this made eighty bajillion dollars and generally reviewed perfectly fine for a blockbuster and somehow execs still managed to get convinced by angry redditors to get the next guy to undo everything from this one

Obviously way down the list on horrible things he’s done, but never forget that RFK is the reason we aren’t seeing the Mighty Mighty Bosstones play hometown throwdown anymore.

Super bummed Matthews Arena is closing. 115 years of history. I saw countless Northeastern hockey games though growing up. Saw Nas there when I was a student. Once played an intramural game where we had 6 skaters and beat a team with three lines.

Somehow Control Resonant actually looked even better than I could have imagined. I fucking love Remedy so much.

I was driving to work the other day thinking about Mane and Bobby and singing the little “but we still got Salah dun dun dun dun dun dun, oh mane mane” song in my head and it was nice. This team is in shambles

The White House’s insistence on using Sabrina Carpenter’s work and image to promote their crimes against humanity is also them appealing to their base, which already uses technology to try and humiliate and puppeteer the likenesses of women who have autonomy, success, and visibility in public

Seems like my package with $90 worth of film in it was stolen so that’s ruining my day.
