Had a really wonderful visit to LA last weekend to see some dear friends I hadn’t seen in ages. Weekend full of sunny weather, long talks, cute cats, delicious food and ridiculous pool parties. Someone on the plane home gave me the flu but it was worth it.

Stuck in LA traffic and our Uber driver just pulled mini brownies out of the console and fed us. We now love him.

Your Gen X prescription: 1. See Superman in the theatre 2. Listen to “I’m a punk rocker” by the Teddy Bears w/ Iggy Pop 3. Listen to a recent interview w/ Director James Gunn 4. Listen to Spotify Superman character playlists by James Gunn 5. Realize that movies & music still matter 6. You’re welcome

So... a life update: as of yesterday, I've joined the ranks of the unemployed. Blindsided, but life comes at you fast. I'm proud of the team I was nurturing & the client work I'd wrapped/worked on. On the hunt for something ASAP so if you need marketing, community, or product support, lmk 🚀

If you signed up for the Amazon Canada invite to pre-order a Switch 2, it works! Just got my email invite, put in the order and amazingly it was seamless. Now I just hope I wake up tomorrow and it hasn’t been cancelled…. #nintendo #switch2 #preorder

Great way to support an indie bootstrapped studio working hard on getting their first game out by supporting their Kickstarter and amplifying their posts! @caeriehouchins.bsky.social and Terry are good humans too. 💜👾🎮

I was curious so I went to see Canada's 1.3B commitment to increased border security that was announced, notably, in December. The top line item is targeting Fentanyl. Again, in December. In case anyone else is curious, here's the link. www.canada.ca/en/public-sa...

Finished Dragon Age Veilguard on the weekend, loved it. Then spent the day yesterday being very “non-digital” learning how to weave a rag rug. My dear friend owns Smoking Lily so we used a bunch of their off cuts from their clothing which created beautiful designs (They are 0 waste)

Still figuring out what I want to post here vs LinkedIn. I’d stopped posting on Twitter ages ago, funny it used to feel so natural. Now it feels more natural to post on LinkedIn. Maybe I’m just cringe 😬

I have unfollowed a heap of people tonight who are celebrating someone being murdered. You don’t think folks who don’t agree with you, how you do things or your politics could apply the same “glee” in justifying your murder? Don’t need that in my feed thanx.

Sometimes they pretend to love each other. I suspect it is opportunistic warmth stealing.

I truly love working with start ups and particularly folks making video games and technology. The people the complexities the creativity even the funding challenges. It can be heartbreaking and inspiring in the same moment. But I love it. Those are my deep thoughts today 😂

I joined Twitter in 2008 while living in Australia, my “smartphone” allowed me to interact with simple text only. I met wonderful folks. Went to “Tweet Ups” (yes that was a thing) It was nerd culture wrapped in diversity, warmth and fun. Closing my account is the end of an era.

So the PNW has a massive bomb cyclone rolling in. Already seeing power outages across Vancouver Island. It’s moving across to Vancouver this evening with rain and powerful winds. Plugging in all the things and hoping all the massive trees in our neighbourhood stay standing!
