Being an American in 2026 is nearly synonymous with a persistent feeling of helplessness and embarrassment. That’s why I want to do something. As announced on last week’s episode of All Things Nintendo, I’ll be donating 100% of my Patreon earnings for January to the ACLU.

Inverse has decided to "divest from gaming content" so I'm out of a job again!
This is almost certainly the end of my career in games media, and probably the end of my writing career. I'd love for that not to be the case, so I'd appreciate any leads but I'm honestly not hopeful for obvious reasons♥️

Inverse's Gaming section is being shut down as the company "divests" from gaming content. I'm out of a job along with my wonderful co-writers. I've put my heart and soul into this job for four years. Gonna need to take time to process, but I'm now completely open for work - and boy do I need it.

Years ago, I taught an NYU Game Center course on games media. It explained how everything works, from the history of the form to the ethics, the reviews to the reporting.
In 2025, I created a 5-part video version. You can now buy the entire video set for $25.
