Friend found a nice, expensive wok on the street, and I revived it yesterday. Which is perfect because I had just been thinking about how I needed a wok.

With the little runway I now have, I will attempt to get a new, independent podcast into the air. Original reporting. Every week. Subscribe to the newsletter if you want to watch it being built.

I like how the pattern is always take something good and then ruin it while waxing poetic about how they might be able to make it into something almost as good as what they just broke

it’s going to be staffed by the same desperate and/or clueless younger people and industry washouts as sites like zombie deadspin and waypoint because nobody worth their salt is going to want to write for it

No one person has done more to bolster the community that surrounds Giant Bomb over the last 17 years than ZombiePie. He has tirelessly put together weekly roundups of forum posts, blogs, reviews, wiki work, and art. This is probably the last one. Please read it. www.giantbomb.com/articles/the...

Well, that was a dream come true. Knew it wouldn't last, though. Out of a job at the moment. But I'll always be doing patreon.com/gamemess

Polygon has done consistently great work for more than a decade. I’m heartbroken for the folks who worked there and profoundly sad for the entire industry.

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?"

Nothing but love to my Giant Bomb friends. Nothing but love to everyone at Polygon. Everyone deserves better than whatever the fuck is going on right now.

Damn. Spent the past week and change expecting Giant Bomb was about to finally, fully die, and then Polygon got completely gutted.

There’s this band whose social media presence I find Too Much (v theater kid), vaguely feel like plants with how much the Spotify algorithm pushed them on me when they only had two singles, but goddamn if they arent 4 for 4 on writing extremely good pop songs youtu.be/bWzaEe6PgnY?...

The first teaser where they riff on Koyaanisqatsi while "Pruit Igoe" plays was such an incredible statement of intent. Still, for all its faults, find the ambition of this game much more engaging than V. Feels much more of a piece with RDR and RDR2, as well.

I know it's not the most important thing here but this story also corroborates one of my biggest theories about these tech guys: they do zero hours of work in a day. They do no work no matter how much they claim to work 14 hours a day. They're just on their phones.
