Uilillia is sort of an off the beaten path gaming celebrity of sorts. I used to fall asleep watching him play Ultima 3.

Now he's about to stream again...though I miss Platform Masters

I was playing a lot of Final Fantasy 11 to get in-game currency to sell to buy food but didn’t have a reliable place to sleep.
I was in a bookstore and saw a book about cheating in final fantasy 11 and thought it was crazy someone could get paid to study internet happenings.

Today, a leaf blower will show up at my house. I feel like a failure because I’ve been carefully taking leaves into paper bags since the 80s.
Is this growth?
I think about the William Shatner Henry Rollins song, “I Can’t Get Behind That” and feel ashamed.

I saw a comment online that you can always tell when an American creates a #ttrpg because getting martial arts mastery is equivalent learning a second language.
I can’t stop thinking about it. It gets back to an earlier project focused on understanding regional differences in wargaming.

George here requires a lot of play and stimulation as he is anxiety cat. He cries for a while after one of us leaves and clings to us when we get home.
We buy him puzzles but he’s so good at them they only last a few minutes. Just got him this one. that disc is confusing him so much!
Love it.

Been trying to write a rather emotional essay lately about coming to grips with one‘s trauma when that trauma is a significant portion of what propels you in #academicsky.
It is a lot to unpack.

Chance to get into some source code based approaches to @ibogost.com’s Procedural Rhetoric.
I keep wanting to sit down and learn TUTOR so we can start getting into source code-based discussions of design.
May be time.

Fantastic post and reminds me I need to go check and see if m199h‘s source code actually was found.
Got a new post! Going through some of the evidence for the earliest CRPGs to see how it all fits together.

Im super curious for a thing I’ll never know about. Will there be channels of content devoted to deep dives into One Piece once it finishes? sort of like the Tolkien channels now
I mean, there are now but it’s all theory. Wondering about deep dives into inherited wills and dreams

Been taking the Holland Assessments. It's interesting to see Social as my lowest potential major space given that i've got a BS and MA in Sociology.
I suppose at this point it's less about what i'd like to do and is instead about what i've enjoyed doing.
Somehow i've flipped to doer over thinker.
