Sorry to say that, four books in, The Wheel of Time might have some hooks in me.

Delighted but surprised to see Darkhaven squeak over the line at the last minute with its crowdfunding campaign. Sounds like there may have been some bad faith pledges in the mix though, which sucks.

I wrote this dive into the world of Daggerheart third-party ecosystem last year but the publisher for it ended up falling through. I hoped to find another but the piece has been sitting in my drafts for long enough that I felt it ought be published while it's timely www.multiplier.au/daggerhearts...

I think I'm too far gone to fuck with a Destiny 2 x MTG collab but would absolutely go in for a Universes Beyond set, though I doubt that's actually on the cards (no pun intended) www.gamespot.com/articles/des...

Man, it's fucked up that Firefly is getting a revival before Burn Notice.

I'm finding Rooster to be a pleasant watch but this piece is great www.avclub.com/have-tv-writ...

Put it in The Louvre

the great thing about "all art is political" is that it means you, as the receiver of the art and ultimate political agent in the scenario, get to decide what that looks like in practice, and it can often be something way more interesting than "could this double as a manifesto"

Huge validation of my position that this was not a real product

Two weeks after I had the chance to mess with it at MWC....coincidence? I think not! www.engadget.com/mobile/smart...

For all my feelings about CEOs, something I find myself thinking about a lot re: AI is the notion that most people are not immune to propaganda. Millions and millions of dollars are being spent to trick people into thinking that AI is a magic wand. Situations like this are the inevitable result.

Robert Pattinson as Scytale could be *huge*

I do think the memes that could have come out of a Chalamet best actor victory speech would have been *quite good* but the humble vibes coming off the MBJ win made for an especially funny but fitting contrast to the off-the-charts ego of the former.

Yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeep

I can only hope this defeat inspires Chalamet to follow in Michael B. Jordan's example and get cast in a movie that requires him to play two distinct on-screen roles. Maybe even three.

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...

I've been working my way through the 2020 adaptation of The Stand and it is truly one of the most cursed productions.

Huge minority opinion but I think it would be neat if Amazon would put The Rings Of Power out on Blu Ray already.

Season 2 of Paradise is just not hitting for me 😔 Can't help but wonder how much of what worked about that first season was down to the scenes where you get to watch James Marsden and Sterling K. Brown just go for it.

The one upside of the AI bubble lasting this long is that we get to see all the companies that were oh so high on hype and couldn't wait to fire all their staff and replace them with robots reach a very predictable conclusion

Oh this *rocks*

New issue of Multiplier is live. It's a pretty nifty deep dive into the development and design of Duskpunk with the developer behind the Citizen Sleeper-like www.multiplier.au/duskt/

I want to introduce you all to something myself and @jacksonwryan.com have been working on. A PRINT MAGAZINE about video games and video game culture. We know things have been bad for games writing recently. We're asking, "do you want to Continue?" www.kickstarter.com/projects/con...

With Australian games media on its knees, a new magazine is trying to keep a scene alive: aftermath.site/australian-vid...

Thank you!!!!

The discourse klaxons are going to be ringing for this one variety.com/2026/film/ne...

I can think of one specific Sony published game that people would have happily paid top dollar for...

All time incredible choice by me to not bring my Steam Deck on this particular trip abroad.

Not in the market for a new laptop ATM but given how much everything costs nowadays I suspect this could be a generational success story for Apple.

Starting my #MWC2026 off at the Xiaomi press conference. Surprisingly into the Leica Leitzphone. Very expensive but the emphasis on traditional photography is a really refreshing contrast to how AI-led most other smartphone manufacturers are when it comes to the camera conversation nowadays.

While I was on a plane, the @whistleout.bsky.social AU team published a few cute op eds about the 30th anniversary of Pokemon: www.whistleout.com.au/MobilePhones...

I made a quick short about the article I co-wrote and the volunteer work I'm currently doing in 'Flash' preservation! If you know an Aussie 'Flash' artist or dev, let me know! ^^ @nfsaonline.bsky.social #newgrounds #indiedev

Can't believe I'm going to have to watch the Killing Eve stealth prequel

Encountered the new Gmail x Gemini integration I've been hearing people complain about all week and the prophecy has been fulfilled - what a nightmare we live in

Shifting focus on Multiplier this week with a chat between myself and another journo that has been dabbling into the newsletter space www.multiplier.au/how-is-the-p...

Finally. Overwatch but make it Wild Rift is an extremely compelling pitch to me www.polygon.com/overwatch-ru...

New aged-up Joel Kinnamon just dropped. We are so back www.youtube.com/watch?v=zojw...

Getting increasingly irritated with all the nonsense that Google are adding to Google Photos. Are there any good alternative photo management apps for Android or setups that folks are using nowadays?

new Evangelion content means new Evangelion memes

!!!!!!!

Absolutely staggered by how sketchy this piece is. Could the ABC please not get a finance columnist who clearly doesn't understand technology to write about AI? www.abc.net.au/news/2026-02...

This was the first shooter I ever played and one of the all time greats. Incredible to see it preserved in such a way.

A State of Play with announcements I care about, never thought I'd see the day...

I'd been holding off on playing the Collection port of MGS3 until this happened so I guess it might be time to feed on a tree frog or two www.youtube.com/watch?v=a3Au...

On one hand, remaking the original God of War trilogy feels very much like Sony are scraping the bottom of the barrel with that particular franchise. On the other, those original games are silly but actually fun to play and I hated basically every second of GOW 2018 so I guess I'm for it?

Can't believe they announced a new Castlevania game for me on my birthday www.youtube.com/watch?v=X3-S...

More Diablo 2 isn't quite what I actually want, which is more Diablo 3, but it's pretty close variety.com/2026/gaming/...

GamesHub's newest author Tanaka Haruto has produced this __banger__ article, a straight rip from Xbox Wire that claims Suda51 sat down with the diminished Australian outlet for a chat on Romeo is a Dead Man...

An absolute treat of an issue of Multiplier went out earlier today, which looks back at the legacy of Flash. www.multiplier.au/is-flash-mor...
