macabre = “muh-KAHB” Worcestershire = “WOOSS-ter-sheer” omnipotent = “ahm-NI-puh-tunt” reticent = “RET-uh-sunt” epitome = “ih-PIT-uh-mee” myriad = "MEER-ee-ud" Never make fun of someone if they mispronounce a word. It means they learned it by reading.

A long long time ago, I had my dimension travelling Paranoia group encounter some obvious Corpore Metal cultists dressed as robots. The same group were less pleased when their d&d party encountered their laser wielding selves from the other direction.

One of the many reasons AI can't produce good writing is it can't hate its own writing. It can't think to itself "Maybe I'm illiterate" during the writing process. And that's essential

I’m just enjoying that the simple existence of binary-triggers suggests that people have been using non-binary triggers for years.

ahhhh okay, well, this feels quite awkward but: I am interested in mentoring a person who is ambitious and passionate about pursuing sound design for games and is a woman / non-binary / someone of a marginalized gender. Here's my website portfolio to prove I'm an actual person: angela-geiss.com

A friend from the VA just sent this and asked me to share. PMDB is Prevention and Management of Disruptive Behavior in the workplace. THIS is the real war against women: being forced to say there are only 2 genders but not being allowed to mention 96% of violence is perpetrated by men.

This is Jerry Lawson. He invented the video game cartridge for the Fairchild Channel F system. Because of his invention, many consoles had cartridges and CD formats and would become the norm. The Atari 2600, NES, Genesis, and many consoles wouldn't exist without him. Happy Black History Month.

For Blue Monday we can't think of anything more appropriate than this charming depiction of a man getting his face eaten off by a leopard. #MosaicMonday
A horrific image of a someone who seems to have his hands tied behind his back. A big cat (the predator kind, not the overfed pet kind) has jumped up at him and is devouring his face. Blood splashes on the floor.

Ah we lost a good one. Rest in peace, David Lynch - the man who first really showed me just how weird you could get away with being, on television. Where ever you are, I sure hope there’s a whole bunch of damn fine coffee on tap.
