To this day, I can't open a spreadsheet without quietly hoping to discover that Kelly Rowland has texted me.

Mike Tyson's Punch-Out!! is a stone cold masterpiece.

If Hell is, as Dante imagined, a place of proportional reciprocity for sins, Trump and Musk will each spend eternity slowly starving to death fourteen million times over as punishment for every innocent life they took by shutting down USAID to own the libs.

I've been sick today with a stomach bug. But I wanted to take a second and let you know that my adventures in Atlantic Canada continue, and that I'm very happy here. I feel fortunate. It's a friendly, beautiful place & I have hope that I might be able to live the rest of my life in a free country. 🇨🇦

Listening to this episode now & it's such a delight! Reminiscing about Amiga was wonderful (Team Atari ST for the MIDI) but moreso the game. Gold Box & D&D games were my jam! Played everyday after school. It's funny--actually skipped Ultima Underworld cuz it looked too much like Eye of the Beholder😆

Games are a beautiful art form but the games industry can be a pretty harsh and rotten place sometimes.
absolutely heartbroken to announce that i was part of the crystal layoffs today 💔

if y’all spot any openings for a soft, dedicated, smiley games writer — please send them my way 💫

i was on the most perfect narrative team on an exciting, ambitious project. i will cherish it all forever. 💖

Social media has become such a fragmented commercial hellscape that I sometimes forget why I ever started using it: to keep up with people I care about, and to meet new people. It's harder and harder to do either on any social platform, but I still lurk here and other places every day. I wonder why?

If a movie features a submarine or submersible, there is a 80% chance that movie is awesome.

The Steam Machine gives me a way to play PC games without installing Windows 11, which is pretty much living the dream.
