The marketing for this game is so stupendously, unbelievably on brand for Hellraiser. Wild to see an IP adaptation like this seem to "get it" from even before the jump. I hope the game delivers. The people bringing it to us definitely understand the assignment.

Seriously. I’m jealous of the marketing decisions around this game. Understanding the source material and leaning in creates credibility. It says “I understand the fans and what they expect, and we’re going to deliver a game that meets those expectations.”

Hey, about three months later I am still looking for work. I have done senior level work, I’m comfortable owning zones, writing cutscenes, and environmental narrative. Open to working in other mediums as well.

Y’all know that it actually is very easy not to commit sexual violence, right? Like, it’s the easiest thing in the world to respect consent and only accept an enthusiastic yes. I’ve been teaching my own kids — three daughters and a son — this for many, many years. It’s NOT HARD.

One of the earliest things we did when @amandafarough.ca and I joined @causewaystudios.com was to capture a full playthrough of The Haunting of Joni Evers w/ @kjartankennedy.com and @gregwrogers.bsky.social proving Directors’ Commentary. Here’s a bit about how we’re creating a connected universe!

"Tutored" What are we doing here?? This is why we need a vibrant, empowered press. The only thing I can liken this to was Ubisoft requesting a meeting with me to have an E3 convo with a non-forward facing financial exec during the Vivendi hostile takeover attempt.

They quoted me in this New Yorker piece about AI today. www.newyorker.com/culture/the-...

“Let’s say there’s a world or time line I exist in where A.I. has been subject to regulation. It is ethical. It has no footprint environmentally,” the novelist Jeff VanderMeer, a prominent critic of A.I., told me over the phone. “With those guardrails in place, would I read an A.I. book? All I can say is no. And the reason is, in part, because I want to read something coming from a particular mind.” Using A.I., he said, “feels like a betrayal of the whole point of why you’re a writer.”

✍🏾 MY LATEST: I wrote about the moral panic Republicans manufactured about trans girls in sports. I decided to turn all my yelling on social media about trans girls in sports into a column.

rewirenewsgroup.com

The Panic Over Trans Athletes is Fake: Opinion

Republicans have manufactured a crisis in women’s sports, just in time for the midterm elections. Democrats should find the courage to defend trans children—or at the very least, leave them alone.

I loved my time at Mashable more than I didn't but I'll never forgive Ziff Davis for creating an environment that eventually required me to write about why I'd want to have a beer with fucking Chris Pratt.

The sad truth is that a lot of people who joined post-internet newsrooms to pursue work as a journalist or critic were instead conscripted into shitty, take-driven op-ed writing dictated by trends and search behavior.
