I’m sure I’m the last one to notice this, but you can put lil’ link buttons on your bio now! Neat!

Absolute fucking banger.

We got the guillotines.

Tried to comment on an instagram video of Billy Corgan talking about how Gen X women were too wounded for him to date (no worries, buddy), and used some REALLY mild language that still got flagged. Kinda sums up the experience of Gen X men, though. God forbid anyone say a true thing.

RIP Walter❤️

Das war einfach die beste Idee, die ich je hatte 🥰 🦖

I spent all day writing the thread in my head about how Bolsonaro's win was the culmination of a 20-year project to end Brazilian democracy, with the participation of both domestic elites and foreign actors like the US state department and Meta. This is all true, of course, except he didn't win.

Hanging out with the boys... food is bland, but the company's 10/10/ #ffxiv

Good morning y'all! We're playing some critically acclaimed MMORPG Final Fantasy XIV over on YouTube at 11am CET. After the Forum's decision to put a hold on our investigations in Sharlayan, we're hanging with the boys on their trip Thavnair... #ffxiv youtube.com/live/BKZCI4K...

Food. Like astronomically better across the board. More things actually have flavor now. A huge variety of cuisine is easier to access than ever. Learning about food and cooking is basically spoon-fed to you if you have the slightest need for it.

On a different note: Do I need to take a look at Final Fantasy Resonance?

Wow, wir schmeißen uns einfach nur noch von KI generierte Präsentationen mit KI-generierten Mock-Ups und Designs an den Kopp... auf der anderen Seite werden die von KI transkribiert und zusammengefasst. Fick mein Leben...

In 2016, we published potentially the largest single feature to ever appear in Game Informer magazine with a full oral history of the legendary studio, BioWare. We've made that feature available online following reports of the studio's impending closure. gameinformer.com/feature/2026...

At this point the only sensible conclusion is that the games industry is doing great but the desperate greed of capitalism keeps murdering us

Oh for fucks sake...

In my latest for Reactor, I explore the history of nonbinary pronouns in science fiction, and why all my books have nonbinary characters.

Jon Batiste is one of those artists who, while I don't particularly enjoy his music, I absolutely respect for his musical genius. I could listen to him talk about music more often than listen to his music.

By the way, Jon Batiste delivers an absolute masterclass on Jazz nerdery on this episode of the Trackstar podcast... youtu.be/y6zdyfHGbNc?...

Good leadership is giving people the space to fail while ensuring that they don't and being there for them if they still do (and they will).

My top surgery is coming up soon, fittingly scheduled for Friday the 13th 🌱 Luckil, my insurance is covering the surgery. But I’m raising funds for healing, aftercare, and a little financial support during recovery 💜 www.paypal.com/pools/c/9tAs...

I was listening to Tracy Chapman's self-titled first album this morning, and man... she had all the right questions right there, almost 30 friggin' years ago. 😔
