When I first visited Canada I ate so much Lucky Charms I was sick for 3 days. It was amazing.

If you want to write heroes in the year 2025, you have to decide what they stand for, and then stand for it. The mealy-mouthed, offend-no-one approach no longer works. People respond to the Walter Whites bc you can put truth in their mouths. So put truth in the mouths of the good guys.

I don't think there's really anything that can be done unless the people in charge take some real responsibility. The only case I can think of was Satoru Iwata taking a 50% paycut to avoid layoffs.

That was a great era, especially when Chris Bratt was still around (although People Make Games is great too)

Disabling replies, I'm salty but I don't want to cause a pile-on.

Good question, that'd require more senior leadership to also take accountability and admit that performance is more than just the whims of the market. I didn't say it was an easy or likely thing 🫠

It's a single clown hugging a non-clown. This in and of itself is menacing, but not because there's a cyclops.
