ariana!! 🗡✨

hi folks!! after a wonderful run at Kakehashi Games, i’m sad to announce that my role as Communications Director has been laid off, so i'm on the hunt for new opportunities!! 💖✨ if your team needs a marketing professional with ~5 years of experience and a whimsical heart, i'm your girl ✌️🙂

I'm writing a mod in C# and it's reporting a warning on line 3 of a file but the warning is blank for some reason so the "problems" overview just looks like this

japanese class continues to be a bright spot every week :'^) i love learning!!! i love community!!! i love shared hobbies!!!

GOT TICKETS TO THE ZELDA CONCERT LIFE HAS PURPOSE AND MEANING AGAIN

it was hourly comic day on saturday! it was also BostonFIG! i had a big day but i finally recovered from it enough to get my hourlies done

hey friends, what are we doing lately to spark joy and feel human amidst the endless horrors??? (other than showering and moving our bodies please)

survivors are also frequently encouraged to "speak out" and "start conversations" in order to "change the world" but we receive nothing but harrassment, suspicion, and hate for doing so. i grieve so often for the girl i was during MeToo who truly believed that things were soon to get better.

someone explain why i cancel my electric service online in three clicks but in order to cancel my internet service i have to jump through 2 hours of robot menus and three disconnections and two more phone calls and now i'm on hold for 33 minutes

i cannot emphasize enough how near and dear to my heart Dungeon Automata (or Algolemeth, as i knew it at Kakehashi Games!) is, and what an absolute visual treat it is for pixel art nerds like myself. ❤️ the gameplay is SO captivating and SO fun - do yourself a favor and play the Steam demo ASAP!

incredibly random question but have any of my mutuals here had braces as an adult?? 👁️👁️❓

ZELDA CONCERT TOUR AT LAST LIFE IS SO GOOD

wishing all folks at PAX West a safe and lovely time :'^) had to change my plans last minute due to some sudden health stuff with my dog, but really hope to see everyone next year :'^) please have some extra fun for me! ❤️

genuinely distressing and depressing to me how many universities have bought wholesale into “generative ai can be a very useful tool for students” like at the institutional level

NEW on @gamedeveloper.bsky.social: Last year Critical Reflex, Dread XP, and Black Lantern Collective faced claims of sexual harassment. We spoke with the accusers about their experiences and asked if the publishers made changes. Critical Reflex and BLC say they have. Dread XP declined to comment.

i remember before i watched austin powers i was like "why does anyone like him he just seems like a misogynist" and after i watched austin powers i was like "i am so endeared with his strange humor and disarming sincerity and endless mojo and i get it now"

messaging my ex-colleagues who were not mean to me

my heart continues to break for all of the teams that are laid off day after day after day after day in this industry. if you can, please take care of yourselves, take care of each other, and remember now more than ever that your worth is NOT tied to your job. i love y'all. 💔
