I briefly hired Jen as a freelance narrative consultant over a decade ago and she has moved from strength to strength ever since. She's a frigging powerhouse who cares about the medium of games more than almost anyone I know. If you need a writer, y'all should hire her before someone else does.

The only good thing about everyone being buried in their phones all the time is that me staring at my phone for directions no longer immediately screams “TOURIST!!” Woo!!

(Long gone are the days when I'd try to hide my paper map in something nondescript!)

Didn't have nearly enough time to browse, but I did find a copy of Sweet Valley Twins which I adored when I was a kid! Almost got a Choose Your Own Adventure book too, but they looked too modern... sure enough, they were printed in the 2000s! (Yes, that's too new of a printing!)

Two panel comic, top panel: Bear and rabbit are in a boat. Bear says “There’s a hole in our boat.” Rabbit replies “Why aren’t we sinking?” Bottom panel: reveal to see there a bunch of animals underwater holding the boat up. Bear says “I guess we’re just lucky.”

I can't take all of my nostalgic valuables with me but I sure as hell can go on a scanning rampage to make sure they're digitized with redundancy the next time a wildfire earthquake disaster etc makes me grab my go bag and run!

I've entered my scanning era.

I wrote this thread in mid-November when I felt overwhelmed. It helped me remember how little things still matter and can add up, as well as why values like kindness and ethics are still important despite the election results.
