Some new fish friends. Sherman the plakat betta and one of the five kuhli loaches that now hang out in the tank.

What if I just skewered myself on it instead?

Still the best walk buddy and reluctant BFF Ciao had.

I still think about you every single day, you silly boy.

Brandon knows what he’s talking about.

Happy Intl Women's Day

more generations need to discover M*A*S*H

It’s a little absurd that there isn’t a physical media release of the M*A*S*H tv series that uses the HD scans of the negatives AND gives you the option to turn off the laugh track. Anyways… still one of my favorite shows of all time. Even if I have to watch it in 480p to avoid the canned laughs 😭

God fucking damn it.

All of this is fucking senseless. Minnesota did not have an immigration problem. Trump sent his Nazi thugs here because he's racist against Somali people and to own libs like Tim Walz. Now two Minnesotans are dead and Minneapolis is on the verge of going up in flames. None. Of. This. Was. Necessary.

A 23 year old larping as a journalist made a misleading and inaccurate YouTube video that the administration full of chronically online shitposters used to justify the “largest immigration operation ever” and now someone is dead

Just a girl and her favorite ninja turtle.

Trying to watch my favorite holiday movie at my mom’s place be like:

I remember when people were shitting on Alan Wake 2 right when it came out because they were mad it wasn't on Steam and were like "oh this is gonna suck, it's a failure, it's garbage" and I was like "nah, this is amazing" and someone was like "why are you dying on this hill?" well, I won lol

Guess who's raising money for Children's Hospital this year? Join us on November 15 for some Eye of the North shenanigans and tales from the vault. #extralife #guildwars www.extra-life.org/participants...

Hey quick tip: you’ll have more success communicating with strangers on here if you’re not a weirdly aggressive and offputting little freak that no one likes

Much of my life has been spent surrounded by Drew Struzan’s art. It’s practically woven into my DNA with so many vivid memories of picking up VHS tapes and books just to stare at his art on the covers.

Great Vancouver show last night by @murderxbryan.bsky.social, Chris James and their guests Jon Gabrus and @stefanheck.bsky.social Was totally worth jumping on the train from Seattle for. Also, we definitely need to spend more than 4 hours in Vancouver next time. Cool city.

I’m reading @monteiro.bsky.social’s book ‘Ruined by Design’ again because it’s more relevant than ever. “Either by action or inaction, through fault or ignorance, we have designed the world to behave exactly as it's behaving right now. These are our chickens coming home to roost.”

so many dead canaries and we just keep on mining

Folks, you can't report the United States to its manager. There's no superhero coming to save us. We don't need one giant act of heroism. We need millions of small acts of solidarity. Help one person in your community for nothing in return. Then, do it again. And again. That's the revolution.

The tragedy of the UX Designer is being completely incapable of using technology without losing your entire fucking mind.

Hi! I was laid off from Firaxis this morning. I wrote leaders and civs for Civilization VII (NDA for now) and Deadpool and Storm for Marvel's Midnight Suns. I also wrote the award-nominated Hindsight. I'm available for full time, remote work starting ASAP. DMs are open: emmkid.info

Hey y'all- I was impacted by the layoffs at Firaxis this morning. If you or anyone you know needs a mid to senior level materials artist that has experience in building material libraries, lighting, 2D art, and props I'm your girl!https://www.artstation.com/daniellazeman

Maya very quickly became one of my favorite people at the studio when I started. Hire them. Seriously. They’re freaking great and you’d be silly not to snap them up.

I got laid off from Firaxis today. I helped ship Marvel's Midnight Suns DLC and Civilization VII, and would love to talk to you about mid level Producer roles.

I was a Firaxis narrative designer/writer and lost my job today. Any help sharing leads on new opportunities would be great! Over 3.5 years, I contributed to Civilization VII and Marvel’s Midnight Suns, helping turn maps, mechanics, and chaos into memorable stories. See my work benreeves.carrd.co

duh i'm Magritte i can't paint faces for shit duhhh

This is what journalism being "data driven" has caused (+growth profit motivation) Being data driven is to be short sighted, reactive, and to lack context Yes, you should talk to your audience - but be informed by them, not driven by them (same applies in UX Research in general)

Okay. I get it. Wylder’s hookshot is kind of the shit. #nightreign

If you followed me after that layoffs tweet a couple weeks back I’m sorry. This is what it’s actually like here most of the time.

Sometimes you just gotta take an edible and stare up at the ceiling light for a couple of hours.

an utter lack of curiosity is a defining quality of the worst people u know

As a maker of exceptionally sexless art, I just wanna say publicly that any attempt at censorship of the arts is to be resisted. NSFW art is always an easy target, but it’s also always only the first step in a chain, not to mention the artistic value of this stuff in its own right.

The Final Fantasy XIV soundtrack rules because 90% of it is comprised of some of the loveliest orchestral pieces in video games, and then they'll say "fuck it, this boss is getting a Nine Inch Nails song" www.youtube.com/watch?v=MfNo...

Girl, same.

Went back through my camera roll and found this. Edibles must’ve been involved because I don’t remember doing this. Not a terrible list. Honestly, makes a lot of sense the more I look at it. 😅

It honestly breaks my heart that this resonated with so many people.

workers deserve rights actually really hot take, i know, but companies shouldn't just do violence to us all the time to extract profit from our husks

To anyone being hit by layoffs today, It's not you. It's them. It isn't your fault. It's theirs. You didn't do anything wrong. They did. They fucked up. Not you.

*spins the existential dread wheel and watches as it somehow lands on both "the game industry is fucked" and "the country is cooked" at the same time* Ah. Nice.

If the only thing you walked out of #28YearsLater with is a couple of dick jokes then I don’t know what to tell you. There’s so much more there. What a beautiful film.

Seattle 🖤
