As one person told me via DM: “They just gave me my replacement! Great Gamestop those people made an innocent mistake and don’t deserve any bad publicity!!” Another, from a Reddit post: "I actually feel terrible a simple mistake might cost these guys their job.”

Sorry @muskratjohn.bsky.social. I know you thought you were rid of him when he left the Packers. www.espn.com/nfl/story/_/...

Posted this once before, but curious if anyone knows of good journalism communities for Ghost CMS on the web (Discord, chat groups, etc.) I know @404media.co and @aftermath.site both use it, and I'm curious how other publications are using it.

There were so many great pitchers in the 90s, but only one of them killed a bird mid-flight.

@mikereilley.bsky.social hey Mike, have any good journalism resources for Ghost CMS? I checked the site and didn’t see any, so thought I would ask. Thanks!

Some nights you just spend listening to songs from days gone and thinking about how incredible your life has been to this point.

Finally have some time, so going though Kate's post to find other smaller organizations that responded. If you have an independent gaming news website, pop a comment below. Would love to link to your content in @thegamesletter.bsky.social's weekly email. Indie media needs to help indie media.

The wife is away for the weekend, and I have three books, eight games and 51 items on my list of what I want to accomplish. I'm sure I'll get it all done.

Captain Blood Review Haiku: Elderly project Painful in execution Combat delivers thegamesletter.com/captain-bloo...

We reviewed the long-delayed Captain Blood, a video game that was announced in 2004. To say it's a throwback seems pretty accurate. thegamesletter.com/captain-bloo...

Deliver At All Costs launched today, is one of our most anticipated games of May, and is CURRENTLY FREE on the Epic store. Grab it while you can (and check out our other anticipated games of May at the link) thegamesletter.com/11-new-games...

Having some serious resolution issues with OBS when I try to stream or record games. Guess possibly reinstalling that will go on the list for this weekend.

Fortnite is now playable on iOS apps.apple.com/us/app/fortn...

As bad as Borderlands 3 was both in story and gameplay, maybe you shouldn't be so dismissive of your fans. Otherwise "finding a way to make it happen" might just be waiting a year until it's $25.

Maybe they were hacked. My former employer Lee Enterprise was hacked earlier this year and it messed with the printing process for weeks. Maybe they were able to get in and make changes to the page. Or someone was goofing around and accidentally submitted for publication.

Deceased actor James Earl Jones returned to his role of Darth Vader via AI in Fortnite. What could possibly go wrong? 😳 Also, Bungie is accused of plagiarism and more on the Switch 2. All the current gaming news, subscribe today! #GamingNews #Gaming thegamesletter.com/cursing-slur...
