Monthly reminder: Many people have a book in them, but it takes a special kind of freak to leave the Land of Laziness, cross the Plains of Procrastination and Insecurity Mountain, find the Blade of No One Made You Do This, and use it to cut your chest open and yank that book out.

It’s hard to express how much fun it’s been to write Sparrow’s dialogue, selfishly my favorite part of the very long, complicated task of making a new Legend.
My dialogue is in there for this season and the next, plus he has special lines with other Legends 👀

Heather is an amazing writer and a joy to work with. She broke the mold when she made Sparrow, and would be an asset to any team lucky enough to have her. If you have any opportunities available, please get in touch with her!
Well, this is awkward but… I was just mass-downsized at Respawn. These things happen and my time with Apex has been a top to bottom blast, my favorite job I’ve ever had.
It’s been a true joy to write Sparrow, I’ll continue to be insufferable about him for weeks to come.

I couldn’t get a good picture of the sword controller used for Sashimi Slayer because—happily—too many people were playing! But it is pretty sweet: youtu.be/CHD0NNFahLk?...

My favorite part of the @officialgdc.bsky.social expo this year was the peripherals. The cat butt, the sword controller, the fully bespoke bowl with chopsticks, the game played entirely inside a shower—just pure creativity and joy.
The alt.ctrl.GDC area is far more interesting than most of the convention floor! Like the game called How To Pet Your Cat, which is pretty self-explanatory . More to come... #GDC #GDC2025 #indiedev #indiegame

I quote the "Hot Stuff Coming Your Way" skit from X-Play's Shining Force Neo review at least once a month.

Everyone I meet is a real person.
Not interrupted by ads that get in the way of what I’m try to see.
No algorithms inhibiting my exploration.

I guarantee your public library has the thing you’re looking for: books, movies, kid activities, internet, games, useful shit, community, third spaces, the next thing you’ll be excited about, etc
