Fuck bigots and punch nazis. Neither will be safe here.
A friend has been hunting Ruby Dragon for months now and a new window opens in an hour and change.

I'm going to be really upset for him if I get it during my first window attempt and he doesn't.

But at the same time, I think I'd pass out from laughing. #FFXIV

So the streamer Ludwig recently found out that one of his earliest regular viewers, who was trans, passed away and tonight he's doing a charity stream for the Trevor Project. So far he's raised over $46,000 in about 5 hours. www.twitch.tv/ludwig

I'm working on updating marketing materials on our website and Patreon. If there's anyone out there that's actually used our work and wouldn't mind dropping a testimonial, leave me a reply.

I'm not collecting them right now, but looking for willing folks 🥰

NEW: The first two years of Massachusetts' millionaire tax has raised $3 billion more than expected.

And rather than driving the rich away, IPS researchers found that the number of millionaires has *increased.*

Tax the rich. Greg Ryan in @bloomberg.com:

I'm sitting here, trying to figure out how it got so late and then I remember that a "quick call" from my mom turned into a two hour chat.

Some folks absolutely think this way, BUT I’ll also say a good PR person advocates for the value small sites, small creators, and freelancers bring to the table.

Do my clients want IGN? Of course. But do I impress upon them to remember the little guys? Yep.

An army of small voices adds up!
I've had this chat with PR people and they know that supporting smaller sites and freelancers makes sense and would help build a healthier games media.

The problem is game publishers pretty much exclusively want GI cover stories or an IGN First and anything smaller isn't worth it.
I don't understand this mentality as long as the person/website has reputable people. How does it hurt you to provide a code? With how hard it is to get publicity for games of all sizes even "small" coverage seems like it would only help?

Hey so, today is my last day at Crystal Dynamics apparently. I joined the company in 2018 to work on Marvel's Avengers and it's been the longest (and best) job I've ever had. It now means I'm looking for work, so if you know of any senior writer/narrative designer positions please send them my way.

This shit went down last year and Keighley's really still standing, still smiling like a dope, acting like there isn't a problem.

I thought we already dealt with this last year but again, if you want to honor games with award nominations you can start by spelling them properly.

Please hire professionals.

It's so embarrassing for such a massive industry.

I'm saying this out loud:

If i want to get back into propmaking, I HAVE to clean and rearrange my workshop.

Maybe I'll make this my end of the year goal.

GOOD NEWS! Researchers have discovered a powerful antibody, known as 04_A06, that is able to neutralize 98.5% of MORE THAN 300 different HIV strains AND permanently reduce HIV viral load to undetectable levels, making it one of the broadest-acting antibodies against HIV identified to date.
