Hey so, today is my last day at Crystal Dynamics apparently. I joined the company in 2018 to work on Marvel's Avengers and it's been the longest (and best) job I've ever had. It now means I'm looking for work, so if you know of any senior writer/narrative designer positions please send them my way.

I think we need to stop calling it empathy and go back to calling it decency. It isn't a favour you're doing someone else, it's you proving that you aren't a fucking ghoul

If you’re distraught and horrified by the current direction of the United States like I am, I implore you to take a few minutes out of your day to look up what’s on your ballot and where your nearest polling place is, and go vote in your local elections. Change and progress happens at all levels.

I was laid off from Teen Vogue today along with multiple other staffers, and today is my last day.
certainly more to come from me when the dust has settled more, but to my knowledge, after today, there will be no politics staffers at Teen Vogue.

Hearing directly from devs about the experience of their game being taken down and their studio closed is gut-wrenching, but imo necessary. I highly encourage the listen.
A Life Well Wasted episode 9: Game Over is up now. Grab a timed-edition poster by Olly Moss anytime in the next 7 days to support the show. Thanks for sticking with me! alifewellwasted.com
