Applied game designer. Collaboration facilitator.
Kinda bummed about the Dame Edna tribute by @samriegel.bsky.social at the #CriticalRole Melbourne live show last night. Maybe there's room to reclaim the character, but that needs some awareness of Humphries's beliefs–e.g. an on-stage nod to the work of reclaiming. I'll put context in a comment.

In the game of doing tasks, the key resource is usually focus, not time. Sometimes I take time to improve my focus. Eg, tidy up a folder structure, or layers in a design file. It’s a mini brain break but also smooths my workflow, generating future focus. I do this more when learning a new process.

In 1998, there was a gallery opening in NYC for an exhibition of art by Beck and his grandfather, Al Hansen. It had an opening show, coordinated by Beck and hosted by Black trans performance artist Vaginal Davis. Gwyneth Paltrow attended, and this happened, God bless:

Things I think folks can learn to say, get comfortable saying, and show others are okay to say, that would genuinely improve the state of the world:
"I didn't know that"
"I was wrong"
"What does that word mean?"
"Can you explain this?"
"I don't think I understand"
"I don't know"
"I'm confused"
"I didn't know that"
"I was wrong"
"What does that word mean?"
"Can you explain this?"
"I don't think I understand"
"I don't know"
"I'm confused"

Waking up in Australia, it’s heartening to see the only poll drama so far was a woman who hit a building with her car after a dispute about an absentee ballot, and a judge of elections with his hand stock in a coffee machine.

I love you all very much but there is a non-zero chance that I will mute everyone but @taniel.bsky.social tonight. Keep your Kornackis, this is a Taniel household.
If you are looking to squeeze in a walk, a nap, or just a window of time to scream into a pillow—this really is the moment. What else is there to find out at this point, & we're going to start seeing actual returns in less than 3 hours.

Logan’s games will make you feel things
The 22 Nov is my bday, and 24 Nov is Itch Creator Day!
To celebrate, I created this bundle 💃🏼
Each game here either:
- is one I'm proud of
- evokes fond memories
- is one I want more feedback on
If you can sort all games correctly I'll send you a code to get one game free!
