Speaking of which – I am still looking for work, pretty urgently.
I'm still looking for full-time or contract work – I'm a narrative design generalist with credits on multiple shipped titles. I focus on taming the complexity of narrative systems, writing prose, and leading narrative teams.

To be recorded is the death of your life as a First Person experience. The camera makes it Third Person forever. That's why the act of recording film is called "shooting"
A camera is a steering wheel for narrative.

loot does not drop upon defeating me. the developers didn't expect anyone to attack me, i am so vulnerable, and only trying to help. why did you raise your sword? for material gain? i would give you anything i have if you had only asked. i did not ask to be in this game, i did not ask to have 6hp.

This might come from a place of anger and frustration but I truly believe that 90% of game developers haven't actually inspected why they want to make a game.

Majority case is "I rememeber this successful game and I would like to imagine a world in which I thought of it first".

High refresh rates are a scourge. You're at 60fps, having a great time. You see a 120hz screen, now you're ruined on 60. You glimpse 165, now 120 is trash. Some guy tries to show you 240, you shut your eyes, you don't open them til he's dead. You've killed a man now and for what

Did you know synæsthesia goes both ways? This color instantly enters my mind as the word “blue”. No, it’s not just that I “know the word for the color blue”. It’s something more profound. This color isn’t just blue; it’s *synonymous with the word* “blue”.

Programmers are Clerics not Wizards. No INT required, only WIS.

Not surprised that people are trying to go the Warlock route with a CHA build.

it's not like *everyone* thinks you're a genius just because you're a programmer necessarily, but it IS totally ubiquitous to assume every programmer is at least Pretty Smart, and route any criticisms around that assumption. this must be overcome. call a coder a moron today

If you have Blender and Discord open at the same time, and go to type a message to a friend while Blender is focused, you can absolutely fucking wreck a scene like damn.

COOL THING ALERT!

There is a brand new, ultra-high quality rip of the "lost" Boards of Canada bootlegs on YT. It's a fun story, I'll attempt to summarize it.

Boards of Canada are the legendary electronic music band that are responsible for influencing... basically a billion bands that came later.
