It’s been a while since I’ve directly recommended Super Switch Headz - the premier Nintendo podcast on all of the internet (it’s true!). Don’t make me have to do it again; just become a regular listener and greatly improve your quality of life.

A fine token of another successful @unofficialdaday.bsky.social celebration and fundraiser.

The heart aches, but the love endures. Thank you, #Texans, for all the passion, effort, and joy.

A lot will be said about this, but I just want to express my immense gratitude for everything Kathleen Kennedy made possible at Lucasfilm. To call it a gift would be a tremendous understatement.

Well, that was fun. The win streak continues, unabated, and the dream remains very much alive. #Texans

Tonight, our road to the Super Bowl goes through Pittsburgh. Whether the beautiful dream is realized, or our hopes come to an abrupt end, I'll always cherish this team - an exceptional group of high-quality human beings who are easy to root for and up to the task. Let's make it happen! #Texans

Thank you, and it rules so hard (like the Texans defense), and I’m annoyed at myself for mistyping but he said “probably” which makes the quote even better, GDI Jourdan, tighten up girl

10 years ago, the Force was fully reawakened within me. A memory still deeply cherished, an impact still deeply felt.

💚HAPPY #DRAGONAGEDAY!💚 Like every year, we're coming together, not only to celebrate but to share our love WITH and BEYOND this community! Join us and support the 🍉Palestine Children's Relief Fund: tiltify.com/+2025-dragon... @tiltify.com #DAcommunity #DragonAge #da

I am thankful to be alive, for all those who have made a positive impact on my life and on the lives of others, and for the continuing opportunity to brighten the world as best I can.

Happy 20th birthday to perhaps my favorite console of all time, the platform that heralded/standardized the modern era of console gaming. #Xbox360

Rankins should've just gotten down at the end, but - fuck it - I kind of love that he didn't. What a beautiful ending to a complete resurrection of a comeback. I couldn't be more proud of these #Texans. I'm going to savor this one.

Sometimes it takes a bit of chaos, a testament to the fragility of things, but the past week of noise, firings, and political maneuvering surrounding the LSU football program has been a healthy reminder of the inseverable bond I have with it. For good or ill, it’s in my blood.

Happy Halloween, strangers. This was my low-effort costume, if it could even be called that. #N7 #MassEffect

Over the years, I’ve gone out of my way to reduce my sports viewing/fandom to as casual a place as possible, but the NFL has remained the exception. I just love pro football, and the Texans, too much. It’s an affliction, of sorts, but an enjoyable one.

It's black and white: take a look at this, and have a better day; or scroll on, and have a lesser one!

Well done, Jimmy Kimmel.

"Tyranny requires constant effort. It breaks, it leaks. Authority is brittle. Oppression is the mask of fear. Remember that." Looking forward to seeing Jimmy back on the air.

Having just taken in both Superman and the first season of Peacemaker, I’m thoroughly convinced that DC Studios is in good hands. Two very different tonal approaches and balances of reverence/irreverence, but the shared sincerity, passion, humor, and empathic storytelling has really won me over.

#Wildgate is neat.

The games business is about games. If you’re in the games business, and somehow (as often happens) your company somehow is now focused on something else (AI, XR, “IP,” acquisitions, etc.) you’re in for a period of struggle. Everyone will wonder what’s wrong. But you know. It’s about games. Gameplay.

This made me laugh more than it probably should have. #Switch2 #WelcomeTour

In non-Switch 2 gaming developments, I just gladly jumped on the introductory offer for the return of @gameinformer.com's magazine.

Tired? Yes. Switch 2’d? Yes.

Long ago, in halcyon days, I registered a domain for the purposes of creating... things for the internet. 'Twas the short-lived venture of an imaginative, yet entirely unskilled, child, but that daft name just reentered my thoughts for the first time in ~20 years... and it's available.

May the 4th be with all who celebrate! I love #StarWars. It is hope, it is joy, it is connection, it is direction. And, if you feel the same, then I love you too.

Praise be to Walmart, the true deliverer.

Please watch both parts of this. Thanks. #StarWars

Every time I lose, it is on purpose. Each loss simply means I'm playing a more advanced version of chess. 4D. Then 8D. Then 64D. Then 720D. Is that not the right mathematical progression? Too bad, the chess number just went up. 40kD.

I’m left with a certain sinking feeling that says if the Nintendo delay picks up steam and points a lot of new fingers at Trump, the administration will vindictively start picking apart the whole industry under the guise of “video game violence is destroying the youth” or some such shit.

Bravo, Nintendo. Press C to pay respects.

Art in all its forms is an expression, not a commodity. Why should I or anyone care what a non-living thing has to say about being alive?

I want Nintendo to announce a localized Mother 3 on April 1, via the Nintendo Today(!) app, but I’ll settle for one of the fabled remasters/ports.

I can’t recall a similar triumph for games media any time recently. More than anything, I’m thrilled for the staff; they always deserved better.

Today, we are announcing the formation of United Videogame Workers-CWA, an industry-wide union formed by @codecwa.bsky.social and @cwaunion.bsky.social 💪🎮 We're launching at #GDC2025 this morning to build a video game industry that works for us. We're done playing.

Happy Pokémon Day, internet. Here's where it all began for me:

Art nourishes empathy and curiosity, if you let it in. Please do.

I'd like to thank my parents for raising me to be a better person than the man they voted for.

The Video Game History Foundation Library is now in early access. For free. For everyone. Wherever you are. Read more: gamehistory.org/vghf-library...

Well, it took some patience (and a panicked, excessive expenditure), but I was able to secure tickets to see @nin.com in September. It’s long overdue.

With Zuck's villain turn I'm seeing lots of IRL friends and IG expats joining Bluesky which is amazing and I'm happy to have you all here! Thought I'd make a thread with bsky tips cause it can be a little overwhelming or lame at first but this site is actually amazing and I want y'all to stay! (1/?)

Promotion alert. But also -- celebration alert. I'm proud of this week's episodes of The Blathering LIVE. With so much going on the community around my show came together to talk (and occasionally) laugh through it. I don't have much to offer the world -- but I can offer a place to gather.

‘Tis a beautiful thing. #HoustonSnow

This damn thing was within reach, and that makes it hurt so much worse, but there was just too much to overcome (self-inflicted or otherwise). My love for this team endures. That is all. #Texans

A pretty extraordinary mismanagement of talent. How could anyone have thought putting nearly every egg in the live-service basket was a good idea?
