Thursday? You mean Friday eve

That’s the wrong embargo

“Sorry my pet interrupted our video chat!” Why are you apologizing for the best part of my day

Hi @dvpit.bsky.social! Will there be an updated list of participating agents/editors before the event? :)

It’s not too late to send out that email with a six figure book deal offer in it, friends. You know you want to.

Fine, I’ll do it. I, Valerie “Norton” Bob-omb will step up as President of Nintendo America

The Great British Baking Show will heal me

A Rascal sister site has launched: @roguesite.bsky.social Former-Polygon writers have gotten together to launch a worker-owned video game journalism outlet (with a little rascally help). If you mourned the loss of one site, celebrate the birth of another, and support the people making it happen.

We’ve made it to the ‘bers months, long live the ‘bers

Long weekend video gaaaaaaaammmeess

Ziff Davis and IGN routinely decide that work done by our laid off colleagues is not important. But inevitably, that crucial work falls onto those who remain. Not this time. Not anymore.

Hello jet lag my old friend, I see it’s 6am again

Gamescom was fantastic despite having a back injury, and now I want to curl into bed and rest for 48 hours

Gamescom here we gamescome

Weapons movie was excellent, I’ve been thinking about it a bunch since seeing it Thursday

Gardening is HARD OKAY

Cozy girl autumn is right around the corner

So we rediscovered that Yellowcard made a song from the perspective of Spider-Man (Gifts and Curses), and I said that was wild and so odd. In @shaunnorton.bsky.social’s quest to prove me wrong, he ended up finding TWO MORE songs from Spider-Man’s perspective?? And now a 4th song has emerged???

It’s hard enough for women in this industry!! You have nothing to lose by making room for everyone at the table, and EVERYTHING to gain: amazing friendships, support of other girlies, good karma 💅💅💅

Are there any editors looking for reviews for upcoming video games for their sites? If so, I would love to get in touch via DMs or email via [email protected] and work something out! I cover a vast range of genres, like JRPGS/RPGS and action-adventure to narrative-driven and shooters. (1/3)

What are some of your open tabs right now? I’ll start: - Sticky toffee pudding recipe - Galactus wiki - Adopt a Coral - Wordle - Hummus recipe - Crunchy Roll anime news from SDCC

Oh I LOVE The Fantastic Four, I’ve been eating good at the box office this summer

Is this book going to be good? Unclear, but I'm already having a damn good time writing it

It's writing tiiiiimmmeee #ProjectEmerald

Yo, anybody out there wanna be a weekend editor at Kotaku if that role were hypothetically to return?

I cannot express how proud I am of my tiny garden, especially since I tried last year and it was a total disaster

*coughs loudly*

Sending my friends early drafts of of my books

Edited a few of this guy’s TikToks together to create a horrific movie.

The Bananza has taken over this household

My kingdom for a Banjo-Kazooie remaster a la Crash Bandicoot so the controls are modernized

Uh oh I have discovered embroidery

Games industry folks, I’ll be at gamescom next month! I’ve just started planning meetings, so if you’d like to meet for coffee or whatnot, please let me know!

My friends are having a bbq this weekend, and they just asked me, “health-wise, is there anything we can have here for you to make you more comfortable?” When you have a chronic illness, it’s little acts of thoughtfulness like this that mean more than I can say. 🩵 #disabilitypridemonth

Bye forever, WeTransfer.

“Fit check for my napalm era,” I whisper to myself as I switch from my Day Comfies to my Night Comfies

Okay I loved Superman

In my 40s, “a woman who has let herself go” begins to sound less like a tragedy and more like a horse who has finally figured out how to open the gate.

I haven’t made anything with clay since I was a little kid, but I’ve been dying for some chonky little koroks to hang out in my flowers. So here’s my first attempt bahaha, now to dry before painting!

Little health update: this summer has been a lot of six-month check-ins with various specialists and doctors, and when many of them saw me last, I was doing *badly.* The joy they’ve expressed when they see how hard I’ve fought has been so encouraging. I’ve come back. The comeback era continues 🥹

One of the best feelings in the entire world is falling in love with a new story you’re writing

Post a celeb you’ve been told you resemble

Last 4th of July, I was rushed into emergency surgery to remove my appendix, so I hope I can hang onto all of my organs this year

There has to be a better way than this. There has to be a better games industry than this happening to so many people, over and over and over. This isn't good enough.

We tried so hard to get a good team photo, and yet —
