And just like that, we have reached the end of KOTOR II. Enjoy us discussing one of the most famously rushed (in both production and outcome) endings in video games!

turns out best way to beautify your city is also best way to adapt to climate change:

deprioritize cars & on-street parking

prioritize sustainable mobility and sponge city principles (de-paving streets for trees)

bonus points: cleaner air, reduced urban heat islands, better public health outcomes

re: roblox dude's interview crashout. the thing he wants to say but can't is "at scale, kids are gonna get hurt. that is the price for scale." the thing nobody wants to say out loud is "maybe scaling to a level where harm isn't manageable is bad, and scale should be contained"

I went to NYC a few weeks ago to go to this, and I don't know how to convey just how incredible it really is - a true embracing and inspiring celebration of art. The greatest tragedy would be a world where we lost funding and support of the arts, where we would never receive gifts like this again.
Review: “The Phantom of the Opera” stage musical closed in 2023 after nearly 14,000 performances over the course of 35 years. But the masked menace had not disappeared for long.

The megamusical has been distilled and reshaped into “Masquerade.”
Review | The ‘Phantom’ reboot is an erotic fever dream. Here’s what to know.
‘Masquerade’ takes a ‘Sleep No More’ approach to Andrew Lloyd Webber’s gothic romance.

in the early 2000s Rebecca took the time to chat over IRC with a teenaged and gender-confused Me on the practicalities of transition - in a time where being out as trans online was something that could get you socially ostracized. I owe her a lot for that and only hope I can pay it forward.

Rebecca was one of the founders of Interplay and programmed & designed for some of the most influential games of my youth, notably Bard's Tale I & III and Wasteland. She will be missed.

Ok folks we are back at it again from 1-5. Yesterday was a lot. Heard from so many passionate Vancouverites.

Unfortunately I heard the mayor say it was a waste of time. But I assure you, I’m listening.
Budget hearing continued after short recess. 157: environmental lawyer (?)Reads poem. 158: raised in east van. This is austerity and hasn’t been asked for. I’ve been lucky enough to use public services. Breaks my heart to think they won’t get same quality. Few people asked for this police budget.

arts festival president saying "half our grants go back to city in police costs" is beyond infuriating. the police run a protection racket. they are a literal mob, dude
246: folk fest president. Advocating for increased funding for arts. Arts is a necessity. Festivals under threat. Many have folded. We bring in millions of dollars to economy. We bring joy in world of despair. Half of our grants just go back to city in police costs.
