The new print run of #HeatedRivalry wasn't big enough. It's sold out on Amazon and some other booksellers never even got any.

Stop complaining about how we're ruining the economy by not buying new phones, and try supplying what we actually want!

Publishers really, really want to kill the whole special edition market by repeatedly burning customers with AI art. The people willing to spend the most on products, that's really who you want to piss off

Heated Rivalry, Stranger Things final season, new Knives Out movie and a 4 hour Defunctland video just dropped..

So my productivity is going to suck this holiday weekend

Kraken did amazing tonight, really scrappy.

Sucked that they lost. McCann getting sent down the tunnel 49 seconds in after everything seemed to throw them a bit, but they recovered.

Stars won by being more willing to injure people, and that works in hockey

Love to see the boys in PWHL jerseys for the walk on

Some days the only way to feel truly alive is to destroy half your account value to do something truly unhinged to your guild's bank

Guild leaders haven't noticed yet

Also a great thing about video games in general is when I want to be reckless, I can do it there

I need the Kraken to do another Portland watch party. I need to scream at these games with people

Tightly fought game tonight. The amount of insane saves Joey made was insane

The division being so tight makes makes everything tense as fuck. A good chunk of the conference is pretty tight as well.

What the actual fuck, Apple
Not satisfied with just destroying their own brand goodwill, OS companies are now using AI to try to destroy the good names of the apps users install. (Scrivener taking out adds to explain how it has no AI but Apple adds some anyway.)

That there is a Guild Wars ONE dev livestream together is wild

When I talk about subjects, I usually show an awareness of how good a grasp I have on a topic. Or if I understand Part A of thing, but have a looser grasp on Part B. Me acknowledging this is not an invite for confident idiots to school me.

ArenaNet wasn't secretly working on Guild Wars 3, they were secretly working on Guild Wars!

Holy shit. This is amazing, both for die hards of the original game, but also new players. Old school MMORPGs are huge right now, look at Runscape and loads of others. Amazing to see ANet making a move like this:

Seriously, we've only got the one goalie left!

Put goals in the goal, not goalies in the goal

We only have 3 goalies, we can't keep going through them like this!

Hopefully, Murray's okay and they are just being cautious. And hopefully Joey's about ready to return

steam is apparently allowing "this game had AI in it that it didn't disclose" as a valid return statement, so if you or anyone you know actually paid $70 for slop, get that money back

I love @guildwars2.com but I am going to start making bingo cards for the problems y'all have with live streams. The fact that some of your staff are former streamers just makes it funnier.

Also, at an event where you bring in a lot of streamers, and have so much Twitch knowledge in the room...

I feel like I never do enough in any week, but I've been going so flat out I fell asleep during the Kraken game last night and woke up to my computer streaming baseball. I've only just gotten time to see the highlights, amazing win!

Ugh. I've been fine with other losses, but this sucked

Murray was great. Some of the other players did great, but at times play was a mess. That penalty Lindgren got? What was he thinking?

I've been happy with how they played in some games they lost, first time I've felt grumpy at them

"Superior, they said, never gives up her dead
When the gales of November come early"
In the century leading up to 1975, nearly 6000 freighters went down in the Great Lakes.

The Edmund Fitzgerald was the last.

The last. In 50 years, not a single commercial freighter has been lost in the Great Lakes.

Why?

It's NOAA. Of course it's NOAA.
