If you know me outside of Bluesky you hereby affirm that either 1) you don’t think I’m weird online 2) you do but you won’t make it my problem

PSA for cis folks: if a democrat goes on camera and answers a question about trans rights without making an explicit statement supporting trans rights, they're anti-trans

Me shouting at the AC8 screen: that’s not how orbital physics works! You can’t just fire something downwards and have it hit the surface!

i want games made by people who get to keep their jobs

Police don’t need these. I need these

The ADHD test was honestly one of the easier rhythm games I've played

Bungie friends: you deserve better. We as gamedevs deserve better. The industry deserves better.

I am aware of the effect that I have on women

i’m gonna keep this folded up in my pocket like i’m kevin costner in DRAFT DAY

Oh my. This is spectacular. sinceyouarrived.world/taken

Asking her if she would be able to ask the server what the “pup seasoning” in the dog meal is—a normal question that a normal person could conceivably ask for normal reasons—without giving herself away. And she says, no, there’s no way she could. Not with the collar on.

Same for the story, also. It’s both: —At atmospheric and surreal homage to the 19th century horror book The King In Yellow —The most Videogames treatment possible of a straight man whose only visible motivation is obsession with an offscreen woman So, you know, it depends on what’s important to you

happy 9th anniversary to the day we watched Zendaya fall madly in love with Tom Holland in real-time

The Killing of Trans Man Lucas RedBeard Knapp in Rural New Mexico Teaches Us About Visibility – Pittsburgh Lesbian Correspondents

Boss 2 down (1-shot 💪🏽). Man, Saros and Returnal are so weird. A kind of…semi-rogue structure that…does it make sense actually? Some upgrades and stats and whatnot that are, like, fine? Run variance but just…a little? And then shooting and dodging and enemies that you can’t stop going back to again.

A few mins late clicking on a work meeting because I was in the middle of the first major boss of Saros. Eveything turned out fine though. I won.

Ruiner. When I saw them live last fall, Ruiner was a piano solo—which was cool, but I honestly did miss the album arrangement.

as long as john roberts has his majority, there is simply no pro democracy reform that will survive the supreme court. none.

I have no opinion on this. I will not be tricked into mocking or humiliating a cis man on the internet for free.

Whenever something similar to this (player-perceived power being a one-way ratchet) came up on WoW, I called it "the flying problem". Basically, whatever new thing you want to try or change you want to accomplish, players can't be less able to fly than they were in 2007.

I'm a game designer, and glimpsing his game show made me realize he doesn't entirely grasp the concept of a game show. So I imagine an employment lawyer must look at him and realize he probably doesn't understand exactly, in a important sense, what an "employee" is. It's reverse Gell-Mann amnesia.

Saving this to use in my gaming sub-hobby of trying to get my friends to play Outer Wilds

The first time a lesbian says directly to your face “I like older women” is a lot of things to reckon with all at once

Happy lesbian visibility day

Obligatory note, of course, that also it wouldn’t matter anyway if trans women were really good at sports. If we have women’s sports, I tend to imagine that women who are good at sports are people that we want to have participating.

Have you ever noticed that the massive, coordinated, multi-year assault on trans rights is based on NOTHING WHATSOEVER

This is the nicest thing anyone has ever said to me

“Why must life be so hard? Why must I fail in every attempt at masonry?”

Even now (almost 20 years later) this makes me feel better about not getting a federal clerkship while I was at HLS (Like, I knew about FedSoc before this post, but just reading it put this way is cathartic)

The index of consumer sentiment isn't broken; models that try to predict it just don't have the right input variables. I fix that and find that, yes, high nominal price levels explain why the vibes are so off. It's the prices, stupid www.gelliottmorris.com/p/2026-04-14...

fine

fell down a rabbit hole, apparently the most thorough guides for Baldur's Gate 1&2 are written by a woman who has been thoroughly blogging all her video game opinions since the 1980s. she gave Baldur's Gate 3 a 2.1/10 rating and scathingly calls it a reddit RPG lilura1.blogspot.com/2024/01/Redd...

Nice A10 win in flight. The remove-Exhaust event seems to somewhat commonly be a bit silly, perhaps

I’m playing it right now in the airport

For folks who watch indie game industry news, Slay the Spire 2, in early access, outsold the *lifetime earnings* of Hades 2 AND Silksong in its first two weeks alone. Soft estimates suggest they are on track to make $250M over the next 12 months; a new record high for the Godot engine.

Gate 52 at LAX iykyk 🙄😵‍💫

I use em-dashes and lists of three things and overly long sentences. But there’s no way I’m going to give them up for fear of being mistaken for AI. I’ve simply started making sure all of my documents contain a synthesis for methamphetamine.

tbh watching cis people get arrested on trans people's behalf is more heartening than I would have realized. It often feels like it's just us, when the going gets tough. If private businesses risk themselves to continue to allow trans people use of the correct restroom, it'll mean a lot too.

This is so, so well-articulated.

Alright, I’ll be visible. Openly, it’s hard to celebrate “visibility” without discussing how the original idea, visibility from cis people, has become something of a curse by now. But visibility between trans people is more important to seek out than ever, and this day should be about finding it.

My partner and I haven’t missed beat since our days A20 Silent spam. A10 Silent in STS2 has felt right at home. Fun and silly run from tonight:
