Can anyone recommend some metal, nickel-free circular knitting needles? My wood needles are too enticing for the dog.
Yes I know I should be more careful but I’m just being ✨realistic ✨.

people think being a videogame producer is about making schedules and checking in, but it's actually about getting on your hands and knees to beg the trans witches who code your games to use their mental illnesses for good and to get on a call with each other instead of 100+ slack msg threads

if you wanna be mercenary about it bc you're allergic to soft and nice things: having a miserable teammate breaks feedback funnels and slows production. they break communication channels. people spend valuable time and energy tiptoeing around a volatile team member.
bad attitudes are expensive.

I truly can't stress this enough: No one's art is good enough to justify them being miserable to work with. Almost everyone I've worked with has been wonderful, but the handful of folks that weren't brought the whole team down by being egotistical, sexist, condescending, etc.
