culturally we have an insane over-emphasis on tone. we think tone can cover up substance. use of AI to make your writing "more uplifting," "more positive," "more convincing," is an extension of a manipulative + mistaken impulse. You know how you make something convincing? compelling substance!

Band-Aids & Bullet Holes, my John Wick-inspired bloody revenge opera deckbuilder RPG named after a Taylor Swift lyric, is coming to Kickstarter in May. Look good, feel bad, do violence, cry about it, repeat. Just like your day job.

I’ve played this game with Sam and it’s infuriating how simple and clean it is. Instant back from me.

I am always in awe of creators who doggedly continue to find the shape of the—well—THING that they're trying to create, and I strive to follow their lead more. To cherish all the fragmented notes, hopeful ideas and just plain dead-ends; to return to the material again and again.

My favorite kind of discourse is anti-discourse discourse.

Followed closely by systems matter, of course.

It's early and this is a truly atrocious cup of coffee, so it seems like a good time to pick a fight with the world. "System doesn't matter" is a valid, reasonable, and *critically important* argument which has been rendered ragebait and a punchline by pedantry.
