Hi folks! 👋 My name is Jackie. I also go by Cydele in some spaces. My pronouns are She/They. I am currently working as a product manager in games.

I am hoping to use this more in the future as a space where I (hopefully) feel more comfortable to share!

May post a longer intro in the future...

I am always taken aback by getting a visceral reaction when telling people where I live.

It's also, unfortunately, such a familiar reaction because my home server in FFXIV (Balmung) elicits the same out of people. 🤦‍♀️

My personal laptop is officially out of commission. 😭

Time to research what to replace it with. Still not 100% sold on the Framework.

There are nearly 3,000 demos in the Steam Next Fest, and with so many new games coming out getting lost in the flood is a real problem, especially for indie games

So here's your reminder, that if you play something cool, speak up and share it! Word of mouth is so damn important! 🥰

I can't tell if things just haven't hit me yet or I've been in a steady process through all the stages of processing what I've got going on that I'm at the acceptance stage.

What is a song or album that you really enjoyed recently? I'm trying to expand my horizons and try things other people are enjoying.

If you are willing to throw away entire groups of people to protect your insular strategy that will only protect you instead of protecting everyone then I don’t want your leaders and I sure as hell don’t want to be associated with you.

I hate to say it but the majority of the country is not going to die on the hill of trans rights. We can’t protect ANY groups if we can’t win a national election, so purity tests only serve to make specific groups feel triumphant. That’s not “erasing” them; it’s long-horizon strategy.

Eight years ago, I found my cat, Kirby, through a comic someone made about him on Twitter and adopted him the same week! 💖

Going to two concerts this past weekend was the remedy I needed after a rough Friday.

Incredibly grateful to @cloudstrife420.bsky.social for being down to do both with me! 💖

The 400 richest Americans are now worth a record $6.6 trillion.

The entire bottom 50% of America is worth just $4.2 trillion.

Our problem isn't a lack of resources.

Our problem is ever-expanding inequality.

Had a blast catching up on some FFXIV content last night with friends. I think part of why I burned out was because I was keeping up with new content rather than getting to take my time and enjoy it. It's nice to be back! :)
