Not too shabby while balancing a newborn gremlin.
PS. Steam Replay not counting until the end of the year is crumbs and all the 2025 achievements deserve to be.

One last #ExtraLife stream for 2025! It's an odd range of games with D20 chaos rolls and baby food abound!

What a testament that most of my feed is folks sharing memories of Vince and sadness at his loss. An absolute Legend. I was so nervous to chat with him at my first Apex event, but he just amped me up. Big hugs to my Respawn friends and his family. 🩶

When you miss a question in the call because you work on a live game, an update was just pushed to prod, someone was typing aggressively while unmuted, there's a typo on the slide, and 8+ Slack pings popped through.

The handmade, human qualities of your work are more valuable than they've ever been. Don't doubt that for a second.
