29 long years have passed since I founded the emulation archive, Zophar's Domain, on 11.9.96. To this very day, the site still stands as a testament to an era that never actually disappeared but continues to live in the hearts of retrogamers all over the word. Emulation Forever!

The architect's vision might be stairs but buildings still have ramps and nobody is bothered, why are people being so precious about video games? Just be normal

With this column, I really wanted to emphasize the problem with Difficulty Discourse. I've read numerous pieces about Silksong's difficulty, many from nondisabled journalists, and it continues to plague actual accessibility critiques.

I'm very aware of the world burning around us, but I am also holding space to focus on and talk about the stuff I love, because I refuse to let those holding the matches burn that away too.

Does anyone know the best way to caption video clips on social media? Maybe using the text of the post as a transcription/description with timestamps? Adding transcription and description in a follow up post? #a11y #accessibility
