Thinking about the entire sequence involving the sinkhole in Control Resonant, again

Didn’t know him outside of here really, but I know this hits close to home for many, for many different reasons. An unfortunate and terrible reminder that any man, even one of the “good ones” or whatever, can be a bad one.

Control Resonant thoughts so far: Dylan is an absolute angel but everybody is so MEAN TO HIM

Also, ever since I first started WoW back in 2005 I've always wanted to play a glam rock elf warrior on the horde. Had to wait til TBC to get blood elves at the time (and no warriors back then!), but in Forever I'm really digging the new skyborne elves. Feels like scratching a 21 year old itch. 🥲

I have been playing the WoW Forever beta these past few nights and the magic is starting to settle in seeing so many people running about just doing STUFF. Haven't seen cities in WoW this populated in actual years, it's so cool. 😭

Hey! So after seventeen and a half years, October 2nd will be my last day at IGN. It was genuinely a dream come true to do this thing for so long alongside some of the most talented people on earth. I got to travel the world, meet my heroes, and make a ton of really fun shows and videos. An honor ♥️

Well friends, that's it for me. This week IGN let me go, effective immediately. It's been a pleasure talking about movies and TV and to anybody that's read/watched/laughed at any of my work on IGN and CineFix over the years, here's a heartfelt thank you to contrast the grimace in this picture.

We are tired of posting statements like these.

Today was an awful day at IGN. We were blindsided by the layoff of four union members and many more people across the organization who contributed years of their careers to making IGN an unparalleled voice in games and entertainment.

With each successive layoff, core parts of IGN’s operation continue to be stripped away. Today, IGN has decided to do away with many of our talented producers, editors, hosts, and other crucial roles, both within and out of the union. How many layoffs will occur before we no longer recognize the company we work for and the content that we make?

While we recognize the challenges the media industry is facing as a whole, it is difficult to understand how laying off valuable employees better positions us to meet those challenges. In turn, remaining employees bear additional workloads worsened by anxiety over the ever-looming threat of another layoff.

We are devastated, angry, and heartbroken for our colleagues.

Instead of celebrating that success, I'm mourning the loss of my and many of my talented colleagues' jobs. Please hire them. Please hire me. And please still read and watch our work. Our Steam Frame review is sharp and smartly critical of an extremely interesting piece of technology.

The Steam Machine is probably one of the first VR headsets that can do everything right out of the box, from standalone gaming to streaming 2D games from your PC. But the high price, short battery lif...

My team had a huge content day today on IGN, covering the launch of Valve's Steam Frame. So this seems like a good time as any to say that I was affected by today's layoffs.

I was not affected by today's layoffs, but please support those who have been hit. My heart aches. 💔

Seth isn't on Bluesky, so he asked me to share the news that he's just been laid off from IGN. Seth is bright, funny, and inspiring. He gave me so many opportunities and made every day better. I will miss him dearly, and whoever hires him next will be very, very lucky.
