What the fuck are these Oregon uniforms? You had the option of wearing the best uniforms in the history of the league but… this garbage instead? #Seahawks

“I wish there was a game development conference somewhere other than San Francisco.”

Met friends to watch Spurs today. Was mostly clown ball til late, with a keeper fuming at everyone else for his own madness. And the pub ran out of Guinness roughly 10 minutes in - but still had a blast catching up and laughing our way through the dumbest match of football I think I've ever watched.

@fussybritches.bsky.social getting reeeaaalll strong snark table vibes from this match… 🤣

Okay, the crowd going nuts like someone just scored a touchdown at the Super Bowl all *through* the KDH performance is a hell of a thing to see hear/see:

I grew up very far from Seattle but have been a Seahawks fan since I was 11 or 12 and it was almost entirely because of Kenny Easley. Loved to watch that guy play the game. So very, very sad to hear of his passing.

Katie Wilson has been elected Seattle's next mayor www.seattletimes.com/seattle-news...

Someone please tell me an April Fools post leaked several months ahead of time? How can this possibly be a real thing? www.apple.com/newsroom/202...

Also can video game journalists, please, please stop framing QA as a 'gateway' into the industry or a way for people to get their foot in the door so they can go into 'more creative' disciplines? QA is its own specialized field which requires very capable and specialized professionals.

Hey so there are two recent major medication recalls: - Vyvanse generics - Lipitor generics Check your lot numbers and expiration dates! Links in next reply.

you're wrapping up your meet-and-greet with Pope Leo XIV. as you shake his hand for the photo op, you surprise him with a Birminghamton Rumble Ponies Spicy Meatballs On-Field Cap. His Holiness accepts with grace, but you are struck with a bone-deep revelation he just asked God to send you to Hell

sure, why not

When a game dev studio is actively hiring for design roles, but their site only lists Art, Audio, Engineering, Production, and "All" as their core teams/skill sets? Red fucking flag.

Seriously, this is one of those EA Sports "The computer has decided that you WILL lose this game" moments.

Please tell me there's a clip of that deflected pass -> QB reception -> fumble -> turnover play from the Rutgers-Purdue game. That's one of the most ridiculous things I've ever seen outside of an EA Sports football game.

Emergency studio meeting, now.

Greg Schiano is not the answer and Rutgers has absolutely no business being in the Big 10. Sincerely, a Rutgers grad and long-suffering fan

Of all the spam/phishing emails I get on a regular basis, none confuse me more than the ones telling me "You've won Gorilla Carts from Lowe's!" because... who the fuck gets excited enough by this mind-bogglingly specific thing to actually click the link?

Am I rewatching the Lighthouse episode of The Cleaner for the 6th, maybe 7th time? Maybe.

Them: You need to post more on LinkedIn to land a job! Me: Oh, like "I can't wait to find another job so that I can stop visiting this bot-spammed hellsite that keeps promoting AI bullshit into my feed?" Them: Not... not like that.

ever since microsoft's layoffs in early july, the two zenimax unions have been fighting for impacted employees following the cancellation of the elder scrolls online studio's unannounced mmo. they've won laid-off workers more time (aka more pay), better severance, recall rights, and saved some jobs

OK yeah I think it's time for a good long break from Bluesky. ✌️

@thelongestjohns.bsky.social When might you be back in Seattle, do you think?

You ‘run the gamut’ and ‘run the gauntlet.’ You don’t ‘run the gambit.’ gamut = entire range or series gauntlet = severe trial Gambit = Alpha-level mutant who can convert potential energy to kinetic energy

Walked he pup and I think I'm OK with just staying inside in the AC now until... *checks watch* Wednesday.

Sometimes, the soul really just needs a rewatch of Amélie.

“Look at those assholes over there. Ordinary fucking people. I hate ‘em” Oh Repo Man, how I’ve missed you.

Oh goodie. The Blue Angels.

if you put bill maher content on my timeline you owe me a personal apology

Made it to central PA, stepped outside the airport and immediately felt like a dozen people covered me with warm, wet, woolen blankets. Did. Not. Miss. This.

My hot take on the Coldplay Canoodlers? There shouldn’t be kiss cams at concerts. This ain’t baseball, how much downtime is there at a concert. I paid a fortune in surcharges, ONLY THE BAND ON ANY SCREEN

Discord: You have a notification! Me: Oh OK, what is it? Who messaged me? Where is this new message? Discord: Go fuck yourself, figure it out yourself.

This gave me chills. Cannot wait.

We really need to have a conversation with the guy who says “it’s a plane!!” When he sees Superman flying. That guy is having trouble.

Going to mildly suggest that making Jamelle Bouie the sin-eater for every management fuckup at the New York Times is not particularly cool

Fuck us up, M.L.F.

This really is going to be amazing. Wish I could be there, but will definitely tune in. ✌️

NEW: In March, Xbox boss Phil Spencer was so impressed by the demo of a Zenimax game codenamed Blackbird that Matt Booty had to tell him to stop playing so the meeting could continue. Yesterday, they canceled it. Inside one of Xbox's most shocking cancellations: www.bloomberg.com/news/newslet...

I don't have any details yet, but since some folks have very kindly reached out already, yeah the project I was working on at ZOS has been shut down & we're all waiting for word on how soon we're officially laid off. I'll be off & on, just taking time to decompress/process. This industry, man. ✌️

Watched The North Water and while I did actually enjoy it I am in desperate need of a palette cleansing change here. That shit was GRIM. Needs Ted Lasso season 1 sort of cleansing, if anyone has recommendations.

It reallllllly makes consider if there’s maybe just one authoritarian establishment, and it’s not divided by party.

(Pace salsa voice) NEW YORK CITY!

This is so fucking exciting; more of this all around the country please (Zohran’s speech starts around 12 minutes) www.youtube.com/live/wIBdWnQ...

PWHL Seattle season ticket purchase process was a nightmare, thanks to having a very old Ticketmaster account based on a different email address than the one I signed up for to prepurchase the tickets. But at least I finally got them... by making an entirely new Ticketmaster account. Sigh. 🤦‍♂️

Hey bro, you wanna try saying the name of the city to yourself really slow.

Had a feeling this was coming; does not mean I won’t be buying yet another jersey and going all in on season tickets. #LFG

Have you ever dated a narcissist? Someone with no morality but an interest in keeping you wherever you are? Someone who will apologize sincerely, tearfully, as they are emptying your bank account, stealing your work, breaking their vows? That’s chatGPT amandaguinzburg.substack.com/p/diabolus-e...

Rewatching the first Paddington because why not. Who’s going to stop me? No one that’s who.
