thinkin about stuff
the time when I was most immersed in Joni Mitchell's music (1990-1995ish) was also a time when I wasn't very in touch with a lot of pain I carried but the pain was there, looking for a place to be felt, and I'd locate that place in Joni Mitchell records, specifically Blue & Court + Spark & The Hissing of Summer Lawns, and while there's certainly plenty of hurt in those records it's still kind of funny when I'll cue up "In France They Kiss on Main Street" and a body memory of beginning to give myself permission to feel something very difficult will ripple through me, and it's in a way delicious, luxuriant; and I think one error in listening is to attribute agency to the artist when this sort of connection is formed, artists are just playing in their sandboxes, but it's also nearly impossible as a listener to not holler in gratitude from the heart of this process, seeking a person or Person to whom one might express that profound gratitude, someone to whom we can say "thank you, what would I be without this," but there are two people to thank for this and it's harder to thank them than to enter into the easy recourse of icon worship, and sources vary on whether those two people are actually just one person but one of them is God and the other one is you.

happy thanksgiving <3
comic depicting 2 bundled up news anchors reporting from a parade, bantering while reading from prepared notes: Next in the Thanksgiving Day parade...it's Scooby Doo! This balloon is 60 feet tall! Interesting fact! A real 60 foot dog would eat over 500 pounds of Scooby Snacks per day! And his heart would weigh one ton! Wow! But, physiologically, that wouldn't be large enough for an animal that size! Every heartbeat would be agony! "Rease, Raggy! Don't rake me ruffer!" Ha ha ha! Oh look! Bluey!!

my supervisor, who built his career on recalls and starting night markets, got recalled so the mayor appointed a former pet shop owner with no gov't experience he met at a night market, who resigned after the store's new owner leaked texts where she admits tax fraud. in awe of sunset dunes' power

Excited for more people to get hands-on and finally realize what we’ve known for the last two years: Board is a truly magical game console, and is very exciting for both players and developers. www.wargamer.com/board/game-c...
The 'Board' game console could be the next Nintendo Wii, and I'm not exaggerating
Seeing a live demonstration has changed my scepticism into eager anticipation - Board could change how we play videogames, and open new avenues of innovation for board game designers.

Zohran’s win offers the Bay Area a glimpse at a better future — one where we’re not locked in a room with Gavin Newsom for another four years.

The Bushwick bisexuals have it! We can ask for so much more, and at COYOTE we plan to.

Learned that I am being laid off from Heart Machine, and will be leaving the studio later this month.

Do you need a contractor? I've got a track record of leading scope-friendly script revisions late in dev. I have also done a lot of consulting on new IPs and pitches/demos. Feel free to DM me!
