31 today! Feeling kinda eh about it, honestly. 30 was a lot worse than I thought it was gonna be for purely external reasons. Spending the evening on my own with an incredible book, and maybe some more Pokémon.

On October 1, 2018, Noisy Pixel launched.
Seven years later, we've grown from a couple friends writing about games to that same group + a couple more doing the same thing.
This has been an amazing journey, and we're grateful so many people have chosen to hang out us. Thank you

Another PAX West done and dusted. Had an absolutely incredible time, played a *ton* of amazing games I'm excited to write about, and met a lot of very cool people as usual.
Massive, shout-from-the-rooftops thanks to @noisypixel.net and @azario.bsky.social for letting me be part of this team.

8bitdo released new firmware to make the Ultimate controllers work with Switch 2...
...the patch was available for less than half a day before the links started to 404, and their official update software doesn't contain it either 🙂

One of our slides from the Whatever it Takes panel. We wanted to be sure any of the devs who worked on DA past & present knew we (at least) appreciate the hard work to make Thedas a world we all loved roaming in.

Darumi is Pinkie Pie-coded. I will take no further questions, you either get it or you don't 💙
Next time I interview Kodaka I'm gonna ask him if Darumi read Homestuck. This is both a promise and a threat.
If you grew up in the early aughts, we *all* knew someone like Darumi.
