I still have a few irons in the fire that I'm really excited about, but it looks likely that I'll be kicking off 2025 with a job search. If your team could use a narrative-y, systems-y designer (with S-tier soft skills & procedural narrative XP) for either an IC or lead role, let's chat!

I almost forgot that despite campaigning I also published a piece of games writing at the beginning of the year Hard to say if it's my favorite essay I've written, but it was definitely the one I had the most fun writing! @critdistance.bsky.social #TYIVGB youtu.be/m3SEgn4Gehw?...

thread of tips on what to do when an insurance company denies your claim, stash it somewhere you'll be able to find it when it's your turn to be affected by this TLDR they're lying and cutting corners, by seeking documentation that would reveal this they're more likely to pay than want to be caught

I'm writing a whole essay on the outer wilds, but one of my favorite things about it is that the entire community has collectively decided we're not telling you shit come back with a warrant
