cohost will be dead in 2 days. please consider making 2025 the year to start and maintain a personal blog. there's bearblog, zonelets, there are amazing static blog engines like 11ty, and rss feeds are still amazing and not difficult to set up. effortposting forever. long live eggbug.

I could not be more excited for Citizen Sleeper 2 by @jumpovertheage.com — and highly recommend the first game (on sale right now for $6!), a profoundly meaningful experience with some exceptional writing
