I said my main goal of this trip was to meet with Kilmar. Tonight I had that chance. I have called his wife, Jennifer, to pass along his message of love. I look forward to providing a full update upon my return.

My 9 grade (and later 12th grade) English teacher took my poem written in 5 minutes, read it aloud in to the class, and then brought ANOTHER teacher in to read it aloud. He kept it. That was the only compliment I got that week, and it changed my life.

This is a big deal. Spread the word. But it’s tiny compared to the totality of what’s happening at NIH. Cure Research for all cancers, Alzheimer’s, everything is being gutted. Intentionally. It’s all getting burned to the ground but the news isn’t getting out. The new cures won’t be there for you.

In the chronicles of me finally returning to playing games after 3 years of grad school, I've been playing The Great Ace Attorney Chronies, and oh MAN I love how that series handles verbs like i cross examination, deduction, and investigation. These internal verbs are so underrated imo.

Kids, OpenAI is the sort of thing that will get you held back at school or put you in the unemployment line. The plagiarism machine will not help you get ahead. If you only take away one message from me, please take that one.

South of Midnight weaves a spellbinding tale of grief, loss, and hope

submitted 85 days ago • 3 comments

I reviewed South of Midnight and I'm floored by it. It has some of the most beautiful level design and art around; the narrative is hauntingly strong and honors Southern Gothic literature perfectly. While the gameloop is repetitive, I never wanted to put it down. My review:

There’s a reason why part of a handlers job is just keeping reality set in stone for an undercover/asset etc. people aren’t wired to operate that way we are what we pretend to be, so we must be careful about what we pretend to be.

Freddie Mercury didn't go into the studio and nail the vocals for "The Show Must Go On" in one take while dying of AIDS for you to despair and give up now. Take the time you need, but then get up and get back out there. The show must go on.

Ursula le Guin, on the accusation that fantasy is an escape from reality

I was watching a Making of Who Framed Roger Rabbit and that movie is literally this. Time and money in exchange for some amazing art. Is something hard? Will it take more time? Is it what's best for the project? Ok! Put more time and effort in.

UM, I had NO idea facebook was tracking everything I did on the internet. EVERYTHING. I have diligently blocked and followed all ways to try to stop this messed up social media from taking from me, but this is the final straw… THESE JERKS! AGH! [screenshots on how to do it in the comments]
