I do product, design, and videogame direction stuff. I like combining inspiration from very different places to create something new.

I've been playing that #DeathStranding. It hit me why it feels a bit strange, dreamlike.
The whole thing is a metaphor, that I'm pretty sure @HIDEO_KOJIMA_EN built the whole game upon.
It's a game about the human condition, the self, life.
Bear with me.

It’s that he’s flattened 1/3 of the White House, that’s probably hit me hardest.
That’s not coming back.
And in a way, it also feels like that America is not coming back.

If only there was some sort of cheap, quick to launch, fast flying kind of sky-eye we could use to follow or bring down these drones.
I guess we’ll just have to stand on the ground and observe them until this technology is invented.

Google has successfully reinvented the mainframe.
You can tinker for free, so long as it's quick.
$25 for a small amount of time-sharing.
$350 for the largest allocation.
Presumably later we flip back to home computing.

Some Fieldgame beta thoughts.
Love that kits are back, and are only four, with clearly defined roles.
They’re basically the ones we introduced in 2142.
They’re really good for letting you know how to play, and help support teamplay.

This is the first #Battlefield in a long time that I’ve felt hype for.
Glad they’re back to a relatable fantasy, one that I feel many others share.

That small dot moving left to right is 3I/ATLAS.
It's a comet that was discovered on 1 July 2025.
It's travelling at 58 km PER SECOND and isn't gravitationally bound to the Sun.
Which means you're looking at a comet that formed around another star, passing through the Solar System.

It’s a peak billionaire society.
When we’re making machines that can build whole sentences that bloom into great works that articulate the myriad forms of human endeavour.
But predicting the words I’m trying to type and will type next on this phone, is simply beyond the bounds of human capacity.
