the speedrunning community was as toxic and as much of a boys club (if not more) as many others not too long ago, and the transition to it being a more queer-positive and inclusive event wasn't inevitable. GDQ's shift has been really meaningful and it's a lesson for what a lot of other spaces can be
While @amandafarough.ca and I were talking to some press folks at GDC, I told an old QA story that Austin picked up on and decided to write about. Behold, a record of my crimes: www.gamesradar.com/games/fallou...

Mikhail is one of the best editors I've had, he's sharp, smart, analytical, and truly took the time and effort each piece needed to make it shine. Washington Post will be worse off without him, along with the many other journalists losing their jobs today.
ugh i'm so, so sorry! you deserve so much better! i'm here for you if you need anything at all.
i can't decide if i am entirely happy with this build, but it was fun making a mediterranean mansion

something I didn't really account for, or think of, and this is likely very obvious, but doing volunteer and community stuff during a crisis really helps combat my own depression. i have to pace myself, but it's a way of achieving some peace in a time of no peace
Absolutely astonishing and inspiring how much MinnMax and Giant Bomb raised over $270,000 for VEAP, a food shelf and housing support non-profit in Minneapolis--they are directly aiding our neighbors who are afraid to leave their homes.
THANK YOU @minnmax.com, @giantbomb.bsky.social πππ
An unbelievable thing happened last night. 3,083 people from the @minnmax.com and @giantbomb.bsky.social community stepped up to protect the people in Minneapolis from ICE.
You can still donate to VEAP here - bit.ly/iceoutminneapolis

I wrote this song on Saturday, recorded it yesterday and released it to you today in response to the state terror being visited on the city of Minneapolis. Itβs dedicated to the people of Minneapolis, our innocent immigrant neighbors and in memory of Alex Pretti and Renee Good.

oh god this terrifies me to my core but i still really want to visit Australia one day
losing a best friend, a hospital stay for crohn's, and a military occupation all in one month has been too much for me. i ask for people to be patient with me because i'm not even past the grieving process for nick yet, and it's impossible to even take time to fully process with everything going on

solidarity and love at Renee Good's memorial site today; a feeling of deep and profound respect for the people who are all caring for each other as we stood in silence. this is not just about renee and alex, but also a stark reminder of how we must protect our immigrant neighbors, full stop.
