Not every game is a product.
Not every booklet is a zine.
Not every idea is a kickstarter.
Not every conversation is content.
Not every collab is a stretch goal.
Not every designer is a peer.

If the idea of a channel surfing simulator seems even a little amusing to you, go buy this. I am a couple hours in, and it is delightful. Is it however, not really a game, so that is my lone warning.

Update to this chart that I share a lot. Not breaking news: Game design teams are still OVERWHELMINGLY all men. About 7% of the top 500 games have a woman or non-binary person credited as a designer. A 🧵of related charts: (1/6)

This is Whirly Derby from @bigpotatogames.bsky.social and it’s more or less Sushi Go bolted to a marble race, and it’s real good!

I am watching AAA Triplemania, and it’s one of the better wrestling special events I have seen this year.

The Overton window on national holidays shifted to a terrible place in like 24 hours.

🍊🤡 says there are too many paid days off, it’s costing the country billions, & rather than folks saying it’s stupid & racist they are deciding which holiday we should lose instead of Juneteenth.

NONE of them!

How many marketers are furious they now need to toss out the rest of their smoke related content so quickly?

I am so happy to see that folks enjoyed this. I have helped Unpub out for a few years with audio equipment and I was really happy to be brought in to entertain and bring a bit of what I do to the con.

I know me of a couple of years ago would have 🙄, but some of the joy of baseball sits in its slow pace of play. Every at bat is like scratching a scratcher ticket, you expect loss & hitting a win is great, but also a game w/ a clock can’t run off about therapy animals. Yep, that’s the point.
The Giant therapy rabbit is back at Oracle Park.

"Whoever discovered the beauty of the therapy animal is -- a special place in Heaven for. It is remarkable what animals can do to relieve anxiety and depression."

I am not sure I am ready for a $500 Nintendo console with a digital pack in game. I am sure as more comes out about it I might warm up, but right now, I think I’ll wait.
