i like to think of myself as the servbot of games media

okay since it apparently needs to be said: please don’t be weird if you want to connect with women at GDC or other conferences. do not stalk them or disrespect their boundaries. i understand it’s really tough out there, but overstepping will never get you places; it will, in fact, do the opposite

i wrote this piece when i was as an intern at Paste Magazine. my life has changed so much in the last 8 years... and i'm very sad to see how little the world has changed and, in some ways, only gotten worse www.avclub.com/what-other-g...

As someone who was born in the year 2000, I gotta say, it would have been neat if I had a few years where I was sentient and could actually self actualize and the world wasn't going through a large scale economic crash, a global pandemic, the rise of fascism, or the death affordable consumer goods.

50 bucks says the first press release for the next call of duty includes the phrase "boots on the ground"

Hey guys, not sure if you've heard, but private transgender healthcare is like insanely expensive.

HARD DRIVES are sold out. Think about that. Not SSDs. Fucking hard drives. In 2026. We are so fucking boned dude...

filling out a medical form, and it was asking for a history of like notable life events and struggles and stuff that might have affected my mental health over the years, and after about 20mins of typing i looked back over it and was like "huh, well when i put it like that, i am remarkably normal..."

a deeply morally suspect business plan that will probably backfire? by clickout? noooooooo... it's always the ones you least suspect...

gotta say, i don't mind this too much, because now right wing grifters have to play and pretend to like or be interested in a denis dyack game

i should just stop looking at my physical game collection because it usually ends up with me trying to figure something out like "why did you buy two xbox 360 copies of timeshift?" and it can't be healthy to dwell on thoughts like that

This week's Update Patch runs down everything in the PlayStation State of Play and the near-endless stream of layoffs continuing to hit the game's industry. @wendeego.bsky.social reports. www.patreon.com/posts/update...

So true, Chuck.

Been getting messages from someone several times a week on an anonymous messaging app I used a few times for AMAs a few months back, despite not sharing the link like November, and, hey, if that's you, please stop. It's making me rather uncomfortable.

on a semi related note, does anyone have a contact at opencritic? i have been trying to get my multiple author pages merged for ages

listen, not to argue with randos on the internet, but i feel like i might be one of a few dozen journos that uses the whole breadth scale consistently through my career

Friends at the Table is doing a fundraiser - Donate to Women's Foundation of Minnesota's Immigrant Rapid Response Fund

every time i catch a bit of itv's rugby coverage its basically: "we wanted some dog water opinions with a strong undercurrent of sexism and classism, so we are joined here tonight by a man who hasn't watched the sport since 1973, a person of colour/woman who won't get to talk, and andy goode"

I am still in need of help while I am applying for government assistance and trying to find work. www.gofundme.com/f/hmtp2-help... If you can help, please donate. Even if it's £1. Everything helps.

Is that Virtua Fighter 5 Steam port OK? VF is like the only fighting game I can kinda mash out some moves in, and I am thinking of dedicating some time to it.

GUYS, YOU'LL NEVER BELIEVE THIS! I JUST SAW A GUY ON THE INTERNET... WITH A SHITTY OPINION.

i know i am losing my touch because i've been staring at the two games releasing on april 2nd, and i cannot workshop a half-decent joke

I reviewed Space Warlord Baby Trading Simulator. It’s a great game and you can trust my opinion of it because im really good at the game

Absolutely abysmal seeing this biased drivel from Ireland’s state broadcaster. Appalling to see my taxes pay for this. I’m going to leave a thread of some of the extensive and highly critical academic response to the Cass review, all of which is easily accessible on the internet
