Boosting!! Salem’s next TMS payment is next week, and I’m also trying to replace my dying phone. We’re at $2066; can we hit 3000/4500 by next Friday? #MutualAid #TransCrowdfund

Edwin’s reporting on this has been so straightforward and clear-headed. So deeply appreciated given *gestures*

I wrote about being fucking crazy (And a few other things)

New this week, @gracemachine.bsky.social on Pathologic 3. Read it right here: bulletpointsmonthly.com/2026/03/25/f...

This is so bleak. Rosenbaum was the main film writer for the Reader for DECADES. Legacy media is in such a bad place when they don’t have room for a monthly piece from one of the giants of the medium. jonathanrosenbaum.net/2026/03/movi... jonathanrosenbaum.net/2026/03/movi...

New, from me.

For Resident Evil’s anniversary, I wrote about Leon getting tied up and stabbed and shot and eaten etc.

Hello. I wrote an essay about a Prince-themed adventure game from 1994. It's like Myst, but better because you go to Paisley Park. Here's the story of Prince Interactive. www.shy.center/p/prince-int...

@gracemachine.bsky.social posits that 24 Killers is a case study of why cozy games need to portray the mulch of their narrative design as convincingly as they do the flowers sustained by it. I love how she easily untangles the cozy/wholesome genre history and (pop) culture associated with it!

My partner on the Killing Our Gods printing just posted a new update on copies on Kickstarter! It's all happening soon... www.kickstarter.com/projects/gin...

FINALLY, I wrote about 24 Killers and its interest in good things grown from gunfire and unburied corpses.

Getting a goblin commission of Phonecall was one of the best £10 I have ever spent

i booked a same-day flight to florence yesterday to be with my mom after she had a life-threatening heart event. she is very sick and remains in the ICU, and we were not prepared for anything like this. any shares and donations are so appreciated, thank you ❤️ www.gofundme.com/f/support-fo...

We didn’t get a ton of donations yesterday and the payments for TMS are due soon, so I wanted to boost this again. Can we make it $2000 by the end of the week? Please repost this if you see it! Thank you to everyone who has helped so far! #MutualAid #TransCrowdfund

Hello. I am hoping to move within the next few months, as my current living situation has become untenable for my mental health. I need financial help in order to do so. I would appreciate you sharing this fund and consider donating if you have the means. gofund.me/76028c586

Reviewed Greedfall 2 lol. I think this exact niche of RPG should be surviving and thriving. Unfortunately, the Dying World is a poor ambassador for this kind of design.

I’m going to need some support soon, my family is going to have trouble with my expenses Consider signing up for any of the following:

Images verified by Human Rights Watch show Israel fired white phosphorus in populated areas of southern Lebanon.

I would like to pitch something on it and I’m loathe to discourse outside of that. so I will just say. Marathon good 💖

Can I say. It’s wild how ugly this is.

This is tender, moving, and vulnerable. As straight and haggard as a nail. Worth reading.

Last month I got to read my latest short story at Test. Now it's finally posted publicly on my website, so please read it! It's about suicide and God and I'm very proud of it. The Accomplishing: A woman has a divine encounter on the day she planned to die norablake.online/fiction/the-...

A New York judge has tossed out Columbia University's unprecedentedly harsh discipline against students accused of occupying Hamilton Hall during the 2024 Gaza protests, calling it arbitrary and capricious:

We kinda cooked on this to be honest. Sometimes it's more fruitful to talk about a deeply flawed and somewhat repellant game than it is the critically acclaimed classics

My girlfriend’s birthday is in four days, and they’d really appreciate any help with getting this goal met! Its been a horrible several days for them and this would help take one thing off their plate. Please boost if you see this! #MutualAid

We talked over the epic highs and lows of this RPG maker classic… and of 2000s era localization…

Enjoyed Phoenix's explorations a lot. They capture something about 24 Killers that makes it really special, the simultaneous sense of loss and joy.

Wrote a bit about Resident Evil Requiem and how it's part of a long-term horror trend of reboots and re-visitations which are more nostalgic than terrifying.

The absurdism of 24 Killers is what I love the most. Treating home with loving irreverence and humour reminded me of how often home is weaponized against communities. As Artemis stated in her piece for this issue, home is not a place, but it's also not a fixed meaning.

We are scheming schemes and making plans at TIER. We hope you will join us...

We are recording @thesaferoom.bsky.social on Corpse Party today! Please send queries to [email protected]!!!

On the last day of Black History Month, please help boost this post to help my disabled partner Salem. They are trying to pay for their OCD treatments, and after experiencing a rape a few days ago they could really use the help. Please repost if you see this, even $1 helps! gofund.me/0fd356684

I'm thinking a lot about Pope Francis calling the catholic parish in Gaza every day of the genocide until he died. I don't want to set everything else aside. And yet. Imagine having a leader who was yearning for peace.

I was thinking recently how long it has been since doing a direct response to a piece of games writing and lo and behold something got me worked up enough to post. breakingarrows.ghost.io/reading-game...

Medical institutions are silencing their staff and impeding efforts to build solidarity with medical workers in Gaza. My reporting:

I think the simple answer is “well what do you do in this space that you are comparing to the worst thing that ever happened”

That polygon review of RE:9 is bad I'm sorry. I don't know that it is "offensive" but it's poorly edited and ludicrously out-of-scope.

Surprise! We have one more contribution to our interactive fiction issue, on questions of how and why electronic games can have physical presence.

I wrote about a different Disco Elysium like than the one everyone is talking about...

lol lmao
