Seeing republicans trying to sell off precious public lands is deeply hurtful. These people care so little for people and planet that I wonder how we could have morphed into something so inhuman.

I thought I was clever when I thought "light-gun games really do share a lot of dna with theme park rides" And then I remembered there are theme park rides that are quite literally shooting games on rails. Now i wonder if the design process is basically the same

Video games, as any art form, is dependent on the context in which they were made. In the jump from arcade cabinets to at home consoles, the medium really had a chance to stretch its legs and grow without being bound by the limitations of its predecessor. But what was left behind?

I was asked to be a interviewee for "The Blood on our Controllers", a documentary about Palestine & their dehumanization in games by @hippolyte.bsky.social. It's out now.
