Just want you to know that when I asked Geoff why he gave the silent treatment to an open letter written by his own "future of games" program (& co-signed by 3000+ industry peers), he replied:
"Because that's my show and nobody gets to tell me how I should use my platform". 💀💀💀

If Anthony Horowitz can't come up with a way of revealing James Bond is alive after No Time To Die, he should probably take advice from someone who's used to writing stories set in the outlandish world of James Bond, such as the novelist Anthony Horowitz

Just back from taking the six-yr-old trick-or-treating, and would like to say that if you decorate your house with Halloween stuff and then don’t come to the door or even leave a bowl of candy out, I hope teenagers TP the living fuck out of your house.

Huge kudos to @matthewdunstan.bsky.social for being vulnerable and talking about these issues.
Burnout is often one of those things people tell you to just ”push through” to the other side of—but that’s never the answer.

Today's video was a hard one for me to make - I wanted to talk about my experiences going through burnout in the last year or so as a game designer, and aspects of the wider tabletop industry that contribute to that.

Thanks to WOKE, I will never get back the minute or so it took to explain to my six-year-old what “non-binary” meant and for him to reply “oh, okay”. I’ve been crying into the special no-no drawer of my heirloom gun cabinet ever since.

Every time the subject of Jimmy Fallon’s spinelessness comes up, I think of this passage from Tina Fey’s Bossypants
![66 Amy Poehler was new to SNL and we were all crowded into the seventeenth-floor writers' room, waiting for the Wednesday night read-through to start.
[...] Amy was in the middle of some such nonsense with Seth Meyers across the table, and she did something vulgar as a joke. I can't remember what it was exactly, except it was dirty and loud and
"unladylike"
Jimmy Fallon [...] turned to her and in a faux-squeamish voice said, "Stop that!
It's not cute! I don't like it." Amy dropped what she was doing, went black in the eyes for a second, and wheeled around on him. "I don't fucking care if you like it." Jimmy was visibly startled. Amy went right back to enjoying her ridiculous bit.
With that exchange, a cosmic shift took place. Amy made it clear that she wasn't there to be cute. She wasn't there to play wives and girlfriends in the boys' scenes.
She was there to do what she wanted to do and she did not fucking care if you like it.
