Knowing my work resonates with people like Malindy and Future Class alumni means so much to me. Too many people in this industry stay quiet and stay comfortable.

My life has not been comfortable over the last ~2 years, but it’s been full because I stand on business and stand up for great people.
Once agsin, @alyssamerc.bsky.social is showing a lot of journos up by immediately being there to give minorities a public voice, and a lot of the TGA ppl have been and are doing the work that any ally with a platform, not just Geoff, should be doing.

Maybe the year is too stacked and it just wasn't good enough, but it's still insane that Borderlands 4 just came and went.

Hell, I've heard more about the critically-panned movie.

ever since I learned about three-cueing I've developed infinitely more patience for replies on social media. mfers literally do not know how to read. people are walking around conjuring random meanings into words they don't know, and they don't know a lot of words. it's crazy

… it's fine

I still haven't figured out a way to condense my non-score movie rating system, but "I liked it, I recommend waiting for it on Netflix, I probably won't watch it again."

THAT SAID, people were popping off fairly often in the audience, so maybe it's worth watching in theaters, ymmv
I was invited to an early Now You See Me: Now You Don't: Oop, Right Behind You

To prep, I started rewatching NYSM2 and that movie fucks!

I'm hoping 3 is really good because if not I kinda want to go back home and finish 2 😅

I hate having to do this but I’m desperate. I’ve been looking everyday for work but nothing is biting. I’m down $80 and I can’t afford my very needed meds and I definitely can’t afford my home when the first comes next month. I’m drowning in medical debt. Anything helps.

I spotted this on Mastodon and I find it horrible, not least for the speed with which this has happened.

I pop onto X occasionally because I have (a lot of) friends who haven't moved over here yet. And I get it, despite everything, X still has that je ne sais quoi that Bluesky hasn't quite figured out yet.

But the price is seeing my friends' best posts surrounded by the most deranged shit. It's rough.

I've only played three games this year: Blue Prince, Expedition 33, and The Alters.

Not completed, 𝗽𝗹𝗮𝘆𝗲𝗱.

If you can recommend one must-play game released in 2025, only one*, what would you recommend?

*(if the game is Dispatch, you can recommend two games haha. It's top of my list!)

Alyssa is wrong. I think $1100 is a fair price to see which developer walks on stage with a MAGA-themed gaming hat
I asked about Game Awards press tickets in October. Got an email yesterday encouraging me to buy my own, as there were no spares.

I'm so proud of my hometown NYC 💜

Got a little nervous since, over the last 35 fucking years, we historically voted for Giuliani, Bloomberg, de Blasio, and Adams.

Glad we can finally break the trend

It's cool how we keep proving over and over and over again that there's a significant market for narrative-heavy, character-driven, single-player experiences in video games and publishers just categorically refuse to believe us
