One of the really cool things about marketing is that by deep diving into a genre space to really dig in, you find so many games that are SO cool that you never would have seen - not marketed, made on the side, tiny games, etc etc. I love discovering little hidden gems along the way.

Started working, cannot remember if I took my meds, do not want to double up on them, so existing in a limbo state until my next dose. Sigh.

There's been a lot of Discourse around international events lately, & I'm curious as I'm hearing so many different takes from different people.

I woke up in the middle of the night straight into a huge cough for like twenty minutes and I'm deeply paranoid a flying bug just went straight down my windpipe. Those who know, are aware this happened to me with a tiny fly going into my ear in the night once.
I feel Bugged. Enbuggened. Of The Bug.

Grammelot is one of those things that I'm obsessed with and just want to read about all the time. I love improvised gibberish! Linguistics are so fun!!! I'm reading Because Internet at the moment for that very reason I love to understand how we talk to each other and why it's so WILD
Italian voice actor Carlo Bononi was the voice of all of the characters on Pingu. A trained clown by trade, he used a theater technique called grammelot, which consists of "speaking" in a mix of babbled gibberish noises. He improvised all the voices live and unscripted.

I haven’t even had a chance to play double exposure yet! I’m such a fan of this series but I think I’m alone in not really needing to explore Max and Chloe again - I loved what they did with Before The Storm and felt really satisfied with their story arcs.
