Welcome to my Year 1 Semester 1 MFA fucking around.
It's short 'cus I had too much coursework to do, but hey, the bar for video game in academia is in hell and this is at least above dirt.

Enjoy the feeling of being trapped on a road trip. It's nice, but you're still trapped.

Our upcoming game HORSES was preemptively banned from Steam, with no path to appeal. The game will still launch next week on December 2nd and will be available on EGS, GOG, Humble, and Itch for $4.99. Here is a detailed FAQ covering what happened: horses.wtf/BannedFromSt...

I'm gunna be honest this is exactly what editors want when they say "authentic"
King's books, many of which i have read and enjoyed, are conspicuously absent from Bad Indians Book Club.

In case you were wondering if this was something a lot of us already knew.

My driving force to start my study are the great fantasy novels about sexy and spiritual imaginary characters pretending to be your family and i spend all night imagining being or being accepted by those fantasy characters.

So i want to create a field of study about your family. I don't meet your family and base most of my knowledge from the writings of people that hated your family 200 years ago. I do include a book by your aunt, and some guy that dreamed about your family.

We need to talk more in international spaces about how much of what people think of as "Canada" is a very expensive marketing campaign.

It's all a lie.

if you’re at it long enough in a space or industry that’s hostile to you just by virtue of who you are you’ll have plenty of people threaten that they’ll make sure you never work there again, or get press again… and idk but even influential gatekeepers expire and you just have to outlive them…

This is the most delightfully #Hamilton story I've seen in a long time. #HamOnt
Man who took Hamilton bus on joy ride 'did a great job' driving, left no dings, say police | CBC News
He made several stops along the way, allowing passengers to get on and off, police say. He was then arrested.

Ses travaux explorent deux thèmes principaux : l'expression des traumatismes infantiles et le futurisme autochtone (plus précisément l'utopisme du retour aux terres).

Nous avons hâte de l'entendre prendre la parole au Game Jam ce week-end !

I'm filling out the special government designed CV form so I can apply for grants and it is so, so long. It has separate sections for everything and it is at least two sub-menus to get to the fillable part for each.

I've been told it normally takes a week to fill out. A WEEK!

I'm crying y'all.

Look, at this point I think we all know that the Game Awards is just an expensive pretense Keighley organized so that Kojima senpai would finally notice him.

To pretend its anything else is an embarrassment to ourselves and our art.

When I tell people I'm into Post-Irony, what I mean is I read the Onion for honest news.

At this point they might as well just start a sister magazine called "I'm Just Saying What Everyone Is Thinking."
