Woman in my first apartment complex who every Sunday, like clockwork, would sing loudly and off-key to a mixtape of popular songs from 1998.

I can help with options:

There were/are so many missteps Sega has made over the years, but the way they consistently swung for the fences when it came to arcade machines really must be studied.

I love ALIEN’s vision of the future. Yes, everyone is still working shit jobs for shit corporations for shit pay. But the good news is they’ve successfully made robots full of milk that are bitchy little fruits

What is "Turns out the real Mowgli: Legend of the Jungle was the friends we made along the way"?

genuinely think people outside of America don't realize how big this place is, how militarized and murderous our police are, how little our politicians care, how disconnected and impoverished we have been intentionally made to be, how we still have slavery just with extra steps. we really suck gang

the dem had 4 years to bring consequences for an attempted coup, and they did nothing. they had 50 years to enshrine abortion, but did nothing. they had 60 years to strengthen civil rights, they did nothing. now they have the will of the people behind them for impeachment, guess what they'll do

Picture of Marjane Satrapi alongside a quote from her. The quote reads: The world is not divided into countries. The world is not divided between East and West. You are American, I am Iranian, we don't know each other, but we talk together and we understand each other perfectly. The difference between you and your government is much bigger than the difference between you and me. And the difference between me and my government is much bigger than the difference between me and you. And our governments are very much the same... - Marjane Satrapi, Iranian-French graphic novelist

Thinking about this quote from Persepolis creator Marjane Satrapi again.

Who is Bert Russell?

I have nothing to say that matches the gravity of the situation. I just want peace and safety for everyone targeted by the insane whims of a madman.

Well now I know what I'm subscribing to and listening to all day.

At IGF '19, after I lost the Narrative Award to Obra Dinn (as I fully expected), I nervously approached him, and he was so generous. Talked about my game, which I didn't know he played, gave notes on my new trailer, was just great.

Not a one-to-one comparison, but browsing my parents' play script collection as a kid and coming across a fun-sounding one called "The Zoo Story" (spoiler alert: it was not a fun one) was an essential moment in my journey as a playwright.

What is Mada-gas-car?

Most plays are generally boring.

Honestly, the smartest thing they could do right now is give a bunch of indie devs permission to use the IP in unusual ways. Give us the CoD dating sim, the CoD RPG Maker, the CoD rhythm game, Getting Over It with Frank Woods.

I recently had to explain to my wife the old Grey Poupon commercials, and why I've always thought of it as a thing only fancy people had.

What is one 1990s-era department store Christmas catalog?

A big second on this. I was worried when releasing Watch Me Jump that the choices presented ultimately led to some basic dialogue changes.

And then I'd watch players really struggle with some of those choices, and I realized it was because they cared more about the ask than the consequence.

Oh, fumbling is absolutely one of our most unshakeable traits.

I look forward to reading the article, which I admit I haven't yet, but in talking to one of my more centrist friends months ago, we agreed that the only person on either side who had that "it factor" to make an inspiring President in '28 was AOC.

This is a weird Mad Libs.

What is Months and Monthsability?

anti-trans virtue signaling that is not going to last, because a LOT of cis athletes are about to find out they are intersex

Wikipedia Bans AI-Generated Content “In recent months, more and more administrative reports centered on LLM-related issues, and editors were being overwhelmed.”

NEW: Wikipedia has banned AI-generated content.

Another recommendation is the app Habitica, which turns your habits, daily tasks, and long term to-dos into a basic RPG, with health, gold, mana, etc.

By assigning it gaming-like stakes, it incentivizes me to keep up with my routines without feeling too demoralizing if I miss a day.

"Pallets of American Cash" is my least favorite Green Day album.
