We're watching Rivals and it's like, almost a parody of the '80s/Richard Curtis. The non-Tennant lead is so a Mangan/Grant that it's baffling that he's actually neither. Katherine Parkinson is obviously the best thing here, but Danny Dyer makes a surprising second place.

Something I adore about Wordle is that it can reveal a population's knowledge gaps in interesting ways. Take a look at this Google Trends chart. This is the past 24 hrs of Google Trends for today's Worldle answer. It's a very rare word. Those three spikes are when AUS, GMT, and EST hit midnight.

A remaster of one of my absolute favourite games of all time has turned Clair Obscur from an easy GOTY into a probable second place. Gosh. Ramza come to me bby

I'm in Bath tomorrow for a show. Looked up the Roman Baths to try and make more of the day. Good lord, those are expensive tickets.

Listening to No More Jockeys in the bath because my broken body won't let me do anything different. I would love to play No More Jockeys with friends and stream it for people to laugh it, it looks like such fun.

Just played Birth, an artsy puzzle game with really simple puzzles (and non-puzzle mini-tasks) but a stunning art style, a lush soundscape, and oodles of heart. Absolutely recommend. It has no dialogue, no story, really, and it almost got me crying. It made me ache but also filled me with resolve.

I'm finally putting a story I've had in my head for over a decade to paper (well, to a word document) and it's making me feel things

Seeing my own article pop up on Google Discover is a double-edged sword. On the one hand, woo, I rely on views to get bonuses and I got a pay cut earlier this year, force more people to read my shit. On the other hand, oh god, this is going to mean shitty comments.

A friend told me I should get into non-video game writing with the implication that I'm wasting my talent. Can't help but ruminate on that. Hmm.

I made a cocktail with some kirsch that we bought ages ago. 'I like cherry!' I thought to myself. Gosh, it's like paint-thinner.

I am more than a bit proud of this lemon tiramisu so I'm chucking it on here as well as insta. Made my own ladyfingers and everything. It tastes so nice.

Hey folks, after a real tough night last night, where I felt pretty defeated by all this, I'm back in the saddle. startmenu is NOT going anywhere and we are going to keep fighting to make sure that their is a future for games media and that its full of smart, empathetic, accurate, diverse voices.

With every day that passes I feel less and less secure, but I've hit a point where I've stopped panicking or getting anxious. It's a train that seems like it's going to crash, I just need to brace for impact.
