I think too hard about music and sad things, and I try a lot to be nice to people. Video games are pretty cool too.

Man I know I've written a really good journal entry when I'm all fucked up and sad after writing it Just having a normal one at this coffee place, trying to not lose it until I get home

if you have a dad to wish well today, i hope you do. if you’re remembering your dad today, i hope they’re happy memories. if you have a child in your life today, i hope they bring you joy. if today brings a sense of pain or loss, you’re ok to feel that way and you’re not alone.

Yo @glendamorganart.bsky.social I managed to get this adorable wonder pick from your pack~

Introducing Snap & Grab - the new game from No Goblin where you get to do cool crimes using just your camera and your crew! youtu.be/26GgiiiP5Po

video gamessssssssss

liz lemon's breakdown at the end of this scene is so hilarious to me, and also all I can think about on days like this where I too haven't gotten enough sleep www.youtube.com/watch?v=BtKt...

it’s almost like courage in the face of fascism is rewarded by voters or something

WELCOME TO ROMANCE NOVEL NUMBER THREE IT'S HIGHLANDER TIME BABY

if you care about trans people, do not watch the new jk rowling show. don’t even hate watch it or you will be funding this new intentionally transphobic organization. we cannot allow hateful people take away more of our rights

damn, this is one hell of a pack

this fucking bird is now a permanent fixture in my deck and I only tolerate it because it makes so many other people mad example:

FUCK dude, I just thought about it again and I am still tearing up, what the fuck is my problem?!

Congratulations @katiehonan.bsky.social on writing the best piece of predictive science fiction of all time

man, I can get so weirdly morbid/sentimental when I'm up too late I'm in perfectly good health and have no expectation to die anytime remotely soon, but thanks to a tv show, I suddenly thought of the perfect thing to do with my remains whenever I do go, and now I've made myself so emotional over it

to anyone thinks that gaming communities can’t affect positive real world change with their collective actions one full throat boycott & in less than 24 hours, one of the most popular games on Twitch reversed course on accepting major sportswashing Saudi money

Dodgers broadcast was discussing the science behind the perception of time between children and adults. After hearing the explanation, the color commentator pauses and asks, "Am I gonna feel any better?" Andy Pages then smashes a dinger into space, thus ending the existential crisis on commentary.

I have started to run the Hateful Bird

Giant news from @giantbomb.bsky.social

the gb news... I think my body has literally forgotten how to process good news??? I feel tense, and yet happy, but also there are tears? what the fuck is happening

I'm speechless... something GOOD happened?!

Giant Bomb is now independent "Giant Bomb has new owners, and you're looking at them" - Jeff Grubb

oh my god I've been calling it "the octagon" since at least february 2014, 11 years minimum still haven't gotten tired of the metaphor

rough day in the octagon today

Getting a job in games media seemed almost unattainable when I broke in back in 2005. In the years since, it’s become almost impossible and ultimately inadvisable. I can’t imagine trying to break in today. Independent is pretty much the only option now. Support your favorite creators directly.

One thing I've found to be something of a constant through all this is that a lot of sales teams are anchored by people with ancient ideas and calcified skill sets who simply can not fathom how to monetize, say, a podcast. Either that or the sales team bailed any everyone says "uh... YouTube money?"

one of my favorite feelings in the world is recommending something to someone I know that I think they'll like, and seeing them love it as much as I had hoped conversely, maybe my least favorite feeling is not being able to do that, because for whatever reason, that person is no longer in my life
