Pretty sinister undercurrent to this story about how a much older, very wealthy man in journalism lured a teenager into the profession through extremely inappropriate power dynamics

So if Olivia is 32 now, broke up with Lizza last year, was together with him for a decade, and then was living with you for 4+ years before that, how old was she when you moved her out of her (presumably parents’) house in the suburbs to live with you?

Josh Naylor is doing a press conference right now and said that he was so happy to learn the Mariners have Tucker. He talked about how great all of the Mariners staff and players were when he arrived but then was like, “He [Tucker] put me over the edge, I love that little guy” 🥹

“I don't think we deserve dogs as humans. I think they're just so perfect and precious. So I just try to give him everything I can -- that love and food. I've never had a clubhouse dog. I think it's really unique." Shout-out to Tucker for closing the deal with Naylor. www.mlb.com/news/josh-na...

I love how much this man loves Seattle. Give him a key to the city

update: we're collecting valuable feedback and our target audience loves the gameplay! Conventional game dev wisdom dictates that the sooner you can get your game in people's hands, the sooner you can make a great game I have a few spots left if any of my buddies here would like to get in on this

I hope all the Riyadh Comedy Festival performers sleep well tonight. This is who you are in bed with.

The bay area needs to get cheaper so the weirdos can come back. We also need brand new weirdos. More weirdos please

Olivia Nuzzi—who has allegedly has sex with two of her sources—has a job and a book deal. Meanwhile, I am begging people on the Internet to subscribe to my indie publication so I don’t go bankrupt. (it’s @autonomynews.co)

Olivia Nuzzi got horny at the part of ET where he’s lying sick in the water

We need a National Book Awards-style game award: every year a committee of five freaks is handed the keys to all the prestige, they pick stuff no one's heard of, readers (players) get mad, the committee members get defensive, no one is truly happy, and then next year we do it all again

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.

They're here. I ordered the Thanksgiving Oreos Cranberry Sauce, Pumpkin Pie, Turkey & Stuffing, Creamed Corn, Sweet Potato, Caramel Apple Pie (2 cookies each) Shit's about to get real disgusting 😎

My "Jeff Bezos is literally writing WaPo's unsigned editorials" theory remains undefeated.

as long as the Game Awards have high viewership numbers it's an open invitation for them to continue to say and do anything they want, ignore or deplatform anyone or anything they want, disrespect game developers as much as they want, etc. they don't have to even pretend to care.

This is bullshit. "absolutely no genAI in games" is the middle ground. "how many years in jail should Sam Altman get for knowingly stealing all data ever" is the somewhat more extreme stance I personally adopt.

This spider is about to throw a spirit bomb

Starting to think billionaires were a mistake.

The owner of this business is a old, wonderful friend & a former employer of mine, so please, I need all of my Pacific Northwest followers keeping an eye out for this stuff, especially if you run in nerd circles, so that his dream business, built via decades of grinding, can keep running.

End of a hockey game means my neighborhood is flooded with traffic Mob scene at the bus stop A drunk white guy singing Butterfly by Crazy Town at Ozzie's karaoke He does not know any of the lyrics

I’m hoping we have a tight enough scene that if someone spots this stuff for sale we can catch these shitheads

Oh boy. My game has an Itchio and a Steam page. There's no going back now. Unless I press this back button

This is also my reaction when I learn I'm going to have lunch with 4 trans women
