free advice for game developers: try to make the next smash hit video game, such as grand theft auto. if you do, you'll be making more than just a video game – you'll be making millions of dollars

i’m pretty sure that if you make healthy meals in a cast iron skillet, it stores nutrients and makes all future meals healthier.

In Blaseball’s expansion era, we had a snack that we never brought out called Offshore Clams, which would allow top earners to avoid the weekly Eat the Rich tax.

After that we planned to introduce Onshore Clams, which everyone else could use to fight back.

We could fix this

- 10 squats when your team allows a run

the coffee shop where my wife and I met is closing soon

we went this weekend and sat at the same table as we did on our first date, almost exactly 4 years since we met

thank you, Mother Earth!

another year where I didn’t get sick at GDC. I’d like to thank Emergen-C, I’d like to thank water, I’d like to thank masking in planes, and of course, my producers
