Years and years of me just randomly whistling or humming Ocarina of Time melodies is going to finally pay off.

Absolutely phenomenal mix of feelings last night. Just an incredible milestone for me. Really excited to see GTA VI presented to the world, and incredibly proud to be a part of the game's journey alongside amazingly talented folk. www.youtube.com/watch?v=tJbz...

Wheelchairs in LEGO Batman! Now I'm running around photo mode'ing all the civilian ears for that hearing aid head in case it's in. 😂

It's Record Store Day this weekend and I'm hoping to go nab one from my local.

Completed it. Wanted to do another run. Ran out of console space for another game. Uninstalled it. Read this. Reinstalling and going for another climb.

Starfield for PlayStation, finally? Keen to see if any accessibility updates came with the updates. Haven't played it since Xbox launch.

It's so lovely to see a bunch of accessibility legends meeting one another at GDC. A heartwarming community.

Excited to share I'm now Senior Production Coordinator: Accessibility! 😊

Assassin's Creed Shadows is lovely.

Cast N Chill on the Switch looks absolutely stunning. Such a beautiful looking game.

Day [???] of manifesting @pouncelight.bsky.social on Switch 2 🥹 Tiny Glade looks beautiful on Steam.

Battlefield 6 is exciting but feels like HUD overwhelm.

Reasons why the Switch 2 STT allowing swear words is important. It let's us, as D/deaf and hard of hearing players, to remain fully involved in communication everyone else has access to audibly, clearly.

Okay, YUNGBLUD's 'Hello Heaven, Hello' is actually a bop. Feel like Idols will be the album I delve into.

Another fantastic GAConf done. Super grateful to be amongst amazing people these last few days. It was wonderful to meet a large number of you in person for the first time, and was great seeing everyone's work in video game accessibility and advocacy. Thank you for sharing your experiences.

I was holding out for a Steam Deck. But now I might lean to Switch 2.

Trigger sensitivity caught me off guard. Went away to answer the door. Came back to continue listening. Accidental double jab.

Spicy Post of the Month: Disabled people don’t need “special treatment”—they need what should’ve been accessible from the start. It’s not a handout; it’s a correction for bad design in our systems, services, and products.

Film developer: "that'll be £14" Me: "For the larger resolutions?" Dev:"Ooh no. That'll be more. £15" Me: "I'll take it"

Accessibility is good, actually.

I turned emergency alerts off ages ago. I'm scared that, my phone, which is connected to my hearing aids by Bluetooth, will blare that alert directly into my external acoustic meatus. Violently pounding my tympanic membranes against the malleus, incus, and stapes — rumbling my cochlea incessantly.

Happy to say that as the year begins, I'm now moving up to 'Production Coordinator: Accessibility' at R*! ⭐

Went to the mountains. Got the car beached on ice. Got free. Went home. Went to the beach. What a day.

Highly tempted to get an insight into @topher.io's world by purchasing these diary parts in Fallout 76... 👀

As the new year rolls in and people prepare... I've turned my hearing aids off and going to sleep. 😏

Spent part of the evening feeling like we're waiting for the clocks to go forward or back or something. Forgot the year was coming to an end.

A horrific Furby + Xbox controller hybrid creation. Purple fur with green furry edges and pink furry bumpers. A Furby mouth for the D-Pad. Both sticks replaced with Furby eyes. Haunting.
