I proposed to Alyssa today and she said yes! Shout out to @itshugosnook.bsky.social for designing this fantastic Wingspan parody! It’s her favorite board game, and I MAY have lied and told her I was expecting a review copy for a new expansion in the mail. She doesn’t seem too mad about it.
I'm a lifelong backspace user, but I've been getting really into the delete key recently. Really opens up the letter-erasing potential. Almost makes me feel ambidextrous.

Job offer!!
I’m helping a PBS series look for a social media manager/content creator for an upcoming promotional campaign. The start date is ASAP, and a project timeline that currently goes to July.

This is for a series on American Muslim history, so candidates with cultural familiarity preferred!

can't wait to have the experience I get when I look at BG3 fan art on Tumblr: enjoying seeing my friends Karlach and Wyll and Lae'zel and getting jump scared by the random stranger they all know who wasn't in my game for some reason

This piece is so massive it made Brian have to ask if articles have a character limit. An extremely in-depth look at the history of Fallout, and absolutely worth checking out if you have any interest in the series or how a franchise can evolve over time.
Fallout has gone from a small side project to a worldwide phenomenon. We spoke with many of the people behind the various eras of the franchise to tell the story of the series in their own words.

This is Game Informer's oral history of Fallout: gameinformer.com/FalloutOralH...

I’m on the Indie Informer! I’ve been playing Cairn, a wonderful game that may start initially frustrating, but slowly traches you its own unique language - emotionally and mechanically. It’s a timely reminder for me of picking yourself back up when you fall. theindieinformer.com/2026/01/29/c...
