This is my go to now. The sign the woman is holding reads "to hell with the dick rule". Something to live by.
I’ve come into a modest sun of money and wanted to do something nice for myself but all I can think of is booking a spring cleaning, doing a neuropsychiatric evaluation of myself or taking the cat to the vet for a checkup.

There's this guy in Lost Treasures of Egypt who's SO ENTHUSIASTIC about everything he reads on the walls in a temple in Luxor that he's practically bouncing off the ground.
I wish I was that enthusiastic about my job.

We played Candlekeep Mysteries, The Joy of Extradimensional Spaces. There was a former cleaning bot in the party. They parted with Mordenkainen's Guide to Window Washing to enter. It outlines the best way to get rid of basilisk saliva and the treatment of spider vomit on stained glass windows.

I wish it surprised me that people from the games industry are mentioned in the Epstein files, but it really, really doesn't.

I should work, but I was sick on Thursday for 4.75 hours and it took a lot out of me to slow down. It's difficult to start back up.

Every time I go on here, or read the news, I find out Trump's regime has overstepped further. What an absolute asshole.

Taylor Kurosaki has bought into the crunch culture which basically puts entertainment before people’s well being and lives, most likely because he doesn’t have to do it himself. This is an arrogant and ignorant attitude.
I say this with utmost respect, but Taylor is an absolute tool for saying this privately or publicly.
I can say on good authority that it takes 7 to 10 years to develop game development skills to “good enough” to produce commercial game content. 7-10 years plus the cost of a university education.

One out of 12 rams is uninterested in females. Deemed “non-procreative" by farmers, they're typically sent to slaughter. German farmer Michael Stücke rescues the gay rams. His company Rainbow Wool, sells fabulous wool products from his flock of gay sheep. rainbow-wool.com

When you're sad and feeling dramatic while working overtime because who the fuck cares and the response is "absolutely no one".

I kind of find it poignant that nothing remains from my time at BioWare.
I feel a bit ephemeral. And inconsequential.

A colleague proposed to me today. I think that’s the first time anyone’s actually asked me to marry them.

I watched Tron: Ares today. First off, although I liked the music, because it's NiN/ Trent Reznor who's written it, Daft Punk's music was better. I can watch Tron Legacy just to hear the music sometimes.
It's an interesting movie. Not necessarily in the good sense.
