How I feel when someone blocks me.

UPDATE: dude you would not believe the stories I’m hearing about this woman from like 8 other people since I put this post up.

When it comes to theories on why a game didn't do well, "People were spying on us" has to be up there with being the craziest. I don't dislike #MindsEye, but what grand "secret sauce" do they believe they had stolen from them that prevented it from being a mega hit? I feel for the staff let go

Not about Marathon, but one thing you learn real fast while teaching is that nobody has ever plagiarized once. It's a pattern of behavior, and they get caught because they get comfortable doing it and keep getting away with it. Right up until they don't.

Me waking up to the alarm for the Nintendo Indie World stream, because, of course, it's at the crack of dawn #Nintendo #IndieWorldShowcase #indiegames

Much love to WotC for sending me some Turtle Power! Now, I'm off to go play this at a Pizza Hut in 1993. #TMNT #MagicTheGathering #MTGxTMNT #TeenageMutantNinjaTurtles

A MUST READ! Another sinkhole for those in games journalism to deal with, as websites are being bought up, consolidated, changed, and shut down. Do not give these websites your time, your talent, your clicks, or anything that could remotely benefit them. #Gaming #VideoGames #Journalism

the kind of wisdom one would hope to find in anxient tomes 🩸

Punch's Mom is the new Weekend Update character of the season. #SNL

Damn, it is the 40th Anniversary! #WWE #WWEChamber #PrettyInPink

I like this guy's style, and I'd like to subscribe to his newsletter! #WWE #WWEChamber #MinuteMaid

Did the Chicago crowd actually boo Danhausen? That's not very nice #WWE #WWEChamber

"I got stuck in traffic. When's Luger Vs Tatanka?" Kudos to this dude for the SummerSlam '94 reference, the last PPV the company held in the building. ... Don't tell him what happened to Tatanka #WWE #WWEChamber

Here we go again #PokemonWindsWaves #Pokemon

With news of more games media layoffs, this seems like a good time to share my Indie Games Media starter kit — it’s more important than ever that readers directly support their favourite publications and writers.

I think of the album often these days... #Santigold

Smiling Friends creators Michael Cusack and Zach Hadel announced that the Adult Swim series has ended after three seasons, though two new episodes will premiere on April 12th. Here's what they had to say about the decision... / #SmilingFriends #AdultSwim

block on sight

A video worth your time to check out from @charalanahzard.bsky.social, as its a more objective piece about the changes happening in Xbox's leadership and the road ahead. A far better examination than most of the coverage that comes off as doom-projecting. #Xbox

Here's the State of the Union, there, I saved you an hour of being lied to and getting dumber #StateOfTheUnion #SOTU

I don't believe it's hyperbole to say that we're slowly watching the last hurrah of #esports as a somewhat profitable platform end in acquisitions. Even if there's money on the line, there's a lot of people who have zero desire to work with these companies. When you drive people away, what's left?

A lovely little package in the mail from Red Bull, as they sent me some promo samples of the new Spring Edition: Cherry Sakura! #RedBull #RedBullSpringEdition @redbull.com

In three months we're going to learn this was an episode of Game Changer, and that while we were watching one episode of The Rookie, the clues were there "the whole time." #GameChanger #Dropout

I feel seen

Every job interview to anything in the video game industry #gaming #videogames

"Homelessness in Manhattan is caused by private equity owning single family homes (the only kind of housing people have proposed banning private equity ownership of)" is the opposite of "getting it"!

Almost every single email of the 120+ I got this morning alone #Steam #SteamNextFest #Gaming #VideoGames #IndieGames

If you're a Resident Evil fan and you got an hour, enjoy Smosh explaining the series to two people who have only seen the two most recent titles. #Smosh #ResidentEvil

Have you ever watched a kid throw different kinds of temper tantrums to test you and see which ones make their parents cave faster? This is that, but if the parent did it to their kids. Super pathetic.

Music writer/critic roots showing for a moment, if you're a music fan of any kind, you should check out Wax Heads when it comes out in May. You get to run a record shop as a game. (Yes, I know I have friends who do this as their job.) But you should still check it out. #WaxHeads #music #indiegame

"Hey guys, let's explore the city!" DOWNPOUR IMMEDIATELY HAPPENS ⛈️ "You know, there's a deli on the corner." #NYC #Manhattan #NewYorkCity

All creative people are a jigsaw of the influences we grew up with. I've been a pro-wrestling fan off-and-on since I was five. Being able to go to the WWE HQ and check that off the list is up there with visiting Nintendo of America, going to Japan, etc. More about the new game soon! #WWE #WWE2K26

We chat with comedian Vic Michaelis about their role in the show Ponies, working with Dropout, and becoming the company's president. #Interview #Ponies #Dropout #VicMichaelis

When I saw this character for the first time, my initial thought was, "Hey, her blue jacket looks like a Mega Buster. Is this a secret Mega Man game?" Vile people populate the Earth, as we continue to learn these days. They should all be loaded into a cannon and fired at the sun. #Capcom #Pragmata

Nothing like starting your morning at WWE HQ, having Paul Heyman hype you up to play a video game. #WWE #WWE2K26

I can't wait to publish a novel and watch it randomly be banned in my home state because of "reasons." #Utah #utpol #books #bannedbooks

On the bright side, you now know you don't need to waste your time reading articles from #EsportsInsider and #TheEscapist, and can give attention to their competitors who hire real people

"They're just like me. War is bad." No lies detected 😂

This week marks nine years of writing for Bleeding Cool. I've had some really awesome adventures, making really cool friends around the world, and just having fun. I really hope that continues and those who enjoy my stuff keep reading. With any luck, there's more fun on the way...

The latest trend in gaming is naming every title a two-parter that only kinda makes sense, but really says nothing, such as... Loophole: The Edge of Darkness Indefinite: Rage of a Solution Steve: Picnics Are Fun Paradigm: A Journey in Plaid JXT: Pogostick of Hell #videogames #gaming #indiegame

Made the pilgrimage to Midtown Comics, got cheap pizza, got into a shouting match, nearly hit by a cab. About the only thing I didn't do is fight the Foot Clan. #NYC #NewYorkCity

Took a helicopter tour of #NYC like Queen headed to a gig. More to come later. #NewYorkCity

Oh hey, just up to some stuff... #NYC #Pizza

(1/2) Deshou Palace had an entire underground exhibit where they show remains of what some of the palace used to be, before after the Mongols captured it and irrevocably burned most of it to the ground. They've been restoring and educating people on the 800+ year-old Palace. #China #history

There's like, nine things about this that are both a glaring example of what's wrong with the gaming industry these days, as well as a few new issues that are becoming a much bigger deal than they used to be. #Highguard #gaming #videogames

Me looking over some of the titles, updates, and expansions for #gaming in 2026. #videogames
