Mitch Marsh and THAT knock
Thoughts on a single-session century that, much like Marsh's presence in the team, exists in defiance of all expectation. (Day One, Headingley)

I was not expecting Baby Steps to be nearly as big-and-open or as lightly directed as it is. Definitely wasn't expecting to get Breath of the Wild vibes at any point

getting into FF14 has been fun but the pacing in post-ARR can best be summed up by "these eight quests could have been a single email"

something you learn about big conspiracy theories is that it's basically impossible for groups larger than like 10 people to cover something up or keep it a secret. turns out you can do a big conspiracy, you just don't need to bother trying to keep it secret

this seems so bizarre to me. Until Skyfall broke the illusion, I always assumed that "James Bond" was a codename and they were all different actual people. it's such an easy and obvious way to explain the changing times, institutions and people that it feels like a major stretch to assume otherwise?
James Bond’s death in No Time to Die is causing a nightmare for the next film. Writers are stuck because Bond “was blown to pieces.”

Anthony Horowitz, author of three 007 novels, says:

“You can't have him wake up in shower and saying it was all a dream."

POSSESSOR(S) is launching today.

I have been the producer on this project for three years, & the last few weeks have been difficult. Most of the team isn't around anymore to celebrate the launch, so I wrote many words about these incredible people to celebrate them.

I am not one to post like this usually, but as things have developed recently, I want to take a minute and get some stuff off my chest.

Psychedelic Porn Crumpets show at the Commodore last night was great. Kind of an unreal energy, not sure I've ever been to a show that was equal parts moshing and shredding

Happy Monday, folks!

A reminder that I am still looking for work. I'm a marketing & communications leader with 14 years in games under my belt, an empathetic people manager, and strategic planner.

Also open to consulting or contract work!
