Openly wept several times during the Stranger Things finale. I am not immune to propaganda
Messy, messy season, but the core emotion is done so well that it all just fades away at the end
Also mark this down, Sadie Sink is going to be nominated for an Oscar within a decade

Hope everybody has a good New Years Eve! My one hope is that my 2026 is better work-wise than 2025

Not to defend this season (which has been undoubtedly messy) but I don't think Stranger Things fans know what queer baiting actually is

Working with Chris has been a highlight of my career, to put it lightly. He's one of the best in the industry.
It took some time to process, but sadly my time at Rolling Stone has come to an end. Alongside some other fantastic writers, I was recently laid off.
Some folks may only know me as the gaming editor, but my 10-year run encompassed so much more.

I'm gonna speak as somebody who has wrote for Retro Dodo several times: this is a deeply embarrassing article that is serving as the normalisation of an actual war criminal, and Brandon should (and CAN) do better.

Breens might be short and bald, but he's also damn good at this
Today is my last day at GLHF as Deputy Editor and it's been a wild ride over some four or five years.
I'm not really one for the freelance life but if you need an experienced games writer for reviews, mocks, or scorching hot takes, give me a shout while I figure my life out.
