All the Control Resonant I’ve been playing has me thinking “I could easily double-jump and air dash to get up there.”

Good. I don't think artistic expression should be tied to a share price, ideally ever.

There are no games in the past few years that has me feeling like Control Resonant, Absolutely none. There are great games but then there are the special kind like these that just enters your Games OAT list ranging from top 25 to all the way to the number uno. Just like that...

It's time for the media to stop referring to these positions as "radical leftist."

I really do keep buying these big-ass books, huh? I still haven't gotten to Tom's Crossing 😭 anyways, unless @jeffvandermeer.bsky.social drops a big tome of a book out of nowhere, I think I'm safe from buying any more super large books for a while 😅

Not worrying about legacy makes your interactions with others richer because if legacy isn't the motivator, you are interacting with each other because it is worth it right NOW, in the moment!

They quoted me in this New Yorker piece about AI today. www.newyorker.com/culture/the-...

“Let’s say there’s a world or time line I exist in where A.I. has been subject to regulation. It is ethical. It has no footprint environmentally,” the novelist Jeff VanderMeer, a prominent critic of A.I., told me over the phone. “With those guardrails in place, would I read an A.I. book? All I can say is no. And the reason is, in part, because I want to read something coming from a particular mind.” Using A.I., he said, “feels like a betrayal of the whole point of why you’re a writer.”

Control Resonant is my GOTY. What a visual feast with a solid story and some best-in l-class sound design

i think you can fairly say that the second trump administration is the most racist federal administration since woodrow wilson and honestly i'm not sure that it isn't more racist than wilson's

Yeah the beam os controlled by the a keeper inside the house, they try to keep it on you but if you go out of the beam too quickly they can lose you and have to find you again. Being in the dark slowly increases the aggression of the monsters

It’s insane that people in Congress are paid over $174K a year in taxpayer dollars whilst making millions of dollars from insider trading whilst getting 18 vacations a year as Americans all over the country struggle to pay for rent, gas and groceries.

A certain subreddit isn't ready for this conversation, but I've never played a game based off of a recommendation/review from @barrettcourtney.bsky.social that wasn't an absolute banger. Him, Blessing, and Andy have masterfully curated my favorite games of the past five or so years

Yeah until gamers reach out to their representatives wherever they live, nothing will chnage. These boomer ass politicians don't care about games personally, we need to MAKE them care about digital ownership and consumer protections across marketplaces.

btw Kanye did a song Heil Hitler and no one stepped in to oppose his tour(s), which is ongoing. In fact, Kanye is scheduled to perform at one of the stadiums Macklemore has been stopped from being at.

There’s such an easy answer to this “gotcha” question and it’s “Sports are inherently unsafe and unfair and it’s ridiculous to single out trans athletes when we allow 150 pound linebackers to go up against 260 pound linemen in freshman football on a daily basis. Let kids play with their friends.”

I'm just over fifty pages in, the furthest I've made it so far. I'm not sure what it is that makes me think this, but I feel like if this book were a game it would be the subject of a @jacobgeller.com video.

Mine is when I have a cool idea but start thinking of reasons why it won't work before I've even started trying to make it happen. I think I'm being logical but really I'm just self-sabotaging what could be a really cool thing!
