This is the type of victory we hoped Obama would be in 2008. Hopefully Mamdani will use the energy he's organized in a way Obama never did.

@austinwalker.bsky.social stumbled into a bunch of people in a Foreign Policy podcast discord I"m apart of talking about how good Realis is. We're sitting up a time to play a session - my first time.

Glad to hear the game has been so well received; great work.

Spending all my hours working and studying and having zero social life for 3 years to hopefully someday be allowed to sit in a chair and tell a client "Maybe spending all your hours working and studying and not having a social life isn't the best choice for you?"

Thinking a great deal about how the act of creating something others adore can be uncomfortable, achy, and dissatisfying

One Battle After Another, like Pynchon, captures something so difficult to put words to.

For me, the most nostalgic game series is Total War.

For several years of my childhood I was "homeschooled" -- pulled out of school but told I had to do "educational things" during the day.

That meant playing Rome: Total War and watching The History Channel

I told one of my counseling professors I used to work at the periphery of the game industry.

I am now getting game design ideas emails from said professor

I am accurately measured at 1.7, which is to say all funding cut before the first vertical slice

The structure of our tools changes the things created by them, including relationships.

Checking in on a discord -- with its perpetual, searchable, chat log -- feels so different than logging on an IRC server where the default is to see zero messages from before you arrived

@helldude.bsky.social just left my one and only sales job to go work as a counselor - I was a recruiter. In 8 months I closed 5 deals. Will this get me into deals heaven?

I've concluded that Gundam is the Leftist mech universe and Mechwarrior / Battletech is the Neoliberal mech universe.

Hello Eric, this is your campaign manager speaking. I am advising you today to please keep saying this shit.
NYC Mayor Eric Adams: I want to be clear with you: Andrew Cuomo is a snake and a liar. I am in this race, and I'm the only one that can beat Mamdani.

I feel like I have reached this inflection point in my life where I have zero interest in media that is simply some version of "look how bad this is" or "here's why this (person, event, thing) sucks" -- especially things I can't do anything about.

This realization somehow makes me feel lonely.

Finally digging into Season 4 of For All Mankind. One of the few shows that has filled me with a deep mix of optimism and sadness.

Haunted by a last and future that could have been.

@lauraillustrates.bsky.social My partner, @priponte.bsky.social who lives in Brazil, got me some really lovely things from your shop:

The bee is to keep me company while I study for grad school.

The bear is because I'm on a new path in life.

The sunflower is because I'm her sunflower.

We've all be ruined by posting. We all think posting is politics.

This is a poster's presidency and it sucks ass
The United States is seeking to steal the sovereignty of Brazil, there's really no other way to describe this. It's an effort to overthrow their domestic political institutions.

Zohran is for the left what Trump was for the right in 2016 -- in the sense that by winning he gives us permission to say the things we want to actually say out loud.

Nothing he's saying is in any way unusual for a leftist, but he proved you can say that shit out loud and win.
