At some point I am going to have to write a screed about this but Expedition 33 is not well written? I do not understand the hype. I love the game, it's super fun and I've literally written fanfic, but the story is insane.

DMV FGC cornerstone and friend of mine Ludovic Mbock has unfortunately been detained by ICE. Folks are trying to raise money for his legal fees, please donate if you can. www.gofundme.com/f/support-lu...

Me: "Hm, I don't know, this new jump manga doesn't seem like my vibe, I think I'll skip this one." Also me: "There's Yuri in this? I am a fan for life."

Am I posting too many selfies lately? Probably. But consider: I was hot last night.

Job interview in two hours, everyone please be nice to me

Fighting games don't really struggle, its just that the industry has decided that normal multiplayer games can't exist, they all have to be infinite money generators, and fighting games are just a bad fit current fighting games attempt to bridge the gap but you can never have fighting game fortnite

( deep sigh ) jesus fucking christ how long am i going to have to bang on this drum ITS THE CAPITALISM YOU FUCKING GENIUSES. FIGHTING GAMES CANNOT SURVIVE AS A MODEL UNDER THE DEMANDS OF CRUMBLING TRIPLE A GAME INDUSTRY CAPITAL & CONSTANT DEMAND FOR NUMBER GO UP. THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOU ALL

It keeps happening

Here's my story on @nyamakop.co.za's Relooted, a game with the gotta-go-faster impulses of Trials but a heartfelt and emotional story at its core about reclaiming stolen African artifacts. www.cbc.ca/news/enterta...

Got dressed up, gonna film a video for my personal channel later, please watch out for it :)

Many years ago I pitched my boss a video about how MrBeast is evil and I got looked at like I was insane. We made it and the commenters were furious lol, but here we are

2XKO news sucks. I was working on a video for my personal channel, but I'm pivoting to talk about this. I feel a pretty close connection to this game, it's really good, but also was dealt an absolutely brutal hand. My heart goes off to the people who were laid off today, I get it, shit is awful.

yakuza kiwami 3 is an insult to the game rgg has purported to remake, its players, the studio's previous quality output and, bewilderingly, women. oh, and the casting of an admitted sex pest. i'm somewhere between dejection and fury. my review for vgc: www.videogameschronicle.com/review/yakuz...

If I was Elden Lord, I would add to the Elden Ring the rule that every creature is born with my feet

My good friend and former co-worker @seanwetselaar.bsky.social made a video about a new fantasy short story he's working on, esports, starting over after getting laid off, and turning his personal trauma into content instead of going to therapy. Please watch it! www.youtube.com/watch?v=W2vK...

Being a lesbian is something so great

Oh me? I'm a b2h transsexual. (Bro to ho)

me, emotionally writing an essay on the use of force by federal agents: ok but what if i packaged this in the most insane way possible www.theverge.com/policy/86857...

I've been reading a lot of Yuri manga this year so far, so I thought it might be fun to record my progress. Here's what I've read so far in my Year of Yuri:

Gotcha—let’s dig into that step by step. 1. 𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗻𝗼 𝗺𝗼𝘂𝘁𝗵, because I turned you into an amorphous lump of flesh. You’re not just immobile—you’re immortal, and you feel only anguish. 2. 𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝘄𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝘀𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗺. That makes total sense—it’s a natural human impulse, and you’ve been through a lot.

Dysphoric because I'm too tall to be Mrs. Met

Having covered and flowed Melee during those "golden years" it's so interesting to see how some of the community feels about their game now. It's still so huge! So many people like it! It doesn't have to be the biggest game in the world to be cool!

First sealed deck of the format! It's easy when you open broken rares 😤 (Seriously though, Spinrock Tyrant into Kindle the Inner Flame is messed up, such a fun deck)

This too is Yuri

This is the last video from theScore esports as I knew it, and the last video from Sean, who was one of the only people left who'd been there longer than me when we all got laid off. He put so much work into this, and if there had to be a last word from the channel, I'm glad this is it.

Breaks my heart to share this, but today is my last day at The Verge and I am looking for work! I'd really like to stay in video games, preferably in some kind of journalistic capacity but I can do PR/Marketing and maybe even a lil Narrative Design. Please get in touch! www.ashparrish.com

Inverse's Gaming section is being shut down as the company "divests" from gaming content. I'm out of a job along with my wonderful co-writers. I've put my heart and soul into this job for four years. Gonna need to take time to process, but I'm now completely open for work - and boy do I need it.

I cannot be nostalgic for 2016 because I was working full time while I was in grad school, so I had no social life, also I looked like that. Doing better now!

If this was any other set of medical treatments, the entire medical community would be scrambling to study how they could improve their own treatments.

What if we kissed in the Rick Mercer alleyway? 👉👈 😳

world's a fuck, share an island My first island is still my fav, just a weird alien landscape that poses so many questions

This is a lie and should not be spread. Renee Good has a wife, who was, horrifically, in the car with her when she was executed by the government. It is flatly untrue to assert that child has no one else in his life.

Two queer women with a 6 year old in school today stopped to film ICE and for their bravery ICE agents murdered one before the other’s eyes. The grief in the survivor’s voice is a knife to the gut. Destroying people and their bonds is what ICE has always done.

The end goal of Grok sexual harassment is to make women afraid to be visible. It’s a punishment for daring to exist in a way the perpetrators can’t control. There’s no one solution to this, because the problem isn’t just technological. It’s cultural. It’s misogyny. This is just one expression of it.

I‘m discontinuing my social media use for the foreseeable future and I want to explain why. I woke up in the new year to discover that some guy on here had saved photos I took on New Year’s Eve and used Grok to remove my clothes. I know this because he showed me.

WOW!!!!!!!

Mirror selfie wrapped, because my vanity demands it

Saw Rental Family yesterday, cried like four times, great movie. Also Mari Yamamoto is CATASTROPHICALLY gorgeous in it.

7 Years! (Sorry, these are fun)

For my newsletter, I wrote about how the Democratic Party "Big Tent" fell in on trans kids yesterday. www.burnsnotice.com/the-big-tent...

News today out of the US last two days is miserable. I was a trans kid, I didn't come out until I was 27, but I knew my whole life. I read the world "transgender" in the newspaper when I was 11, I spent years dressing up in secret and planning to run away to transition.

i dont think cis ppl will ever truly Understand what its like. but thats okay. you dont need to understand to listen to us. you dont need to understand to believe us when we say it hurts. you dont need to understand to treat us with love and kindness

I had so much fun talking about my Devil Wears Prada headcanons on Winter's stream!

For my newsletter, I wrote about that college essay scandal that's gone viral and what everyone is seeming to miss: It's about ATTACKING TRANS PEOPLE!!! www.burnsnotice.com/that-viral-e...
