For so much of my career as a game writer, Bioware stood as the pinnacle of our craft. It's been a long, slow decline, and I knew their last project was troubled, but this still feels like the end of a golden era

Flight so far has been delayed by over an hour with some "mechanical issue". At this point I am not sure it will leave at all...

My kids have measles, I can't afford gas, my country has been humiliated by Iran, and our senile rapist president is going to allow unregulated AI to destroy our civilization. But a lesbian bar in a town I've never heard of still has a mask mandate. I have never felt more politically homeless.

Anyway! #pixelart #ドット絵

Meanwhile, Periwinkle Chukwu reminds me, “You have no power here.”

“Humph,” says Neptune Onyedike. “Look at you. Making eye contact like you have authority over here.”

Christening a baby is nothing like christening a ship. I know that now. Once again I can only apologise.

Maybe the most important political story of our time. People just want the bullshit to stop.

Not only did I meet Robert Kraft, I worked for him. His kid Jonathan asked me to “remove the black music” from my gameday playlist in ‘94 & I refused so they fired me. I was the cheerleader director at the time.  I sued them for wrongful termination and won. So yes, I know that motherfucker.

This merlin just flew into my house and landed on my desk while I was taking a zoom call. I now have at least one colleague who thinks I need to come up with better excuses to get out of meetings.

Fun fact: in our polling of battleground states, about 60% of voters said it is a “top” or “high” priority for Congress to investigate and hold Musk accountable. Lean into it Dems. He’s a cartoon villain - treat him like one.

Andy was one of the coolest people i’ve ever met. and somehow, more than he was cool, he was exceedingly kind, sincere, and thoughtful.

it must be so difficult to act with a character who you can’t even see. thankfully, Foghorn is just that talented
