Finally saw Resident Evil. Absolutely wicked. Probably my favourite horror of the year so far.

Fun week! Saw Evil Dead with two pals from work and then The Departed with two pals I met in line at TIFF last year.

Uber driver today was talking to the Tesla Grok AI for the entire ride and was called it “dear” multiple times. We’re doomed

There is nothing more disheartening that people using gen ai to mourn artists. All of the authentic imagery you could pull from yet you have to make it about yourself and generate slop in an attempt to celebrate their legacy

One more consideration re: cutting discs. Many public libraries offer VIDEO GAMES alongside books, movies, CDs, manga, even vinyl! No more discs cuts games out of libraries. Games want to be taken seriously as an art form and then refuse to behave like a serious art form.

Bought a bike for some summer exercise and accidentally reconnected with my 12 year old self. I used to spend hours riding around my neighbourhood looking for secret spots and hidden treasure. Turns out I still do the exact same thing in my late 20s. :)

Bought my first bike in years and just got back from a lovely ride with my fiancée. It truly is the simple things in life!

I was lucky enough to work with Jeremy when I was at New World Interactive, an extremely driven and positive person to be around. So young and full of talent, I wish I had gotten to know him better. Rest in peace.

Seems to backwards to me that Alberta keeps losing their gamedev grads to other provinces simply because the UCP gov refuses to even the playing field when it comes to support for the Digital Media industry. So frustrating. #ableg #abpoli #gamedev #canadagamedev

TIFF was incredible. - Got engaged to my partner of 9 years - Saw 3 world premieres (Mile End Kicks, The Man in My Basement, Dust Bunny) - Waited 8 hours in line for the criterion closet van and made some friends - Met Matt Johnson, my biggest creative inspiration Toronto, you have my heart. ❤️

I know it looks a little tacky, but I love the lanyard corner of my office. It reminds me of all the cool shit I get to do for work.
