It is just totally surreal these days seeing how American media covers DC, and then you genuinely get headlines like: MAMDANI SEEN EATING ICE CREAM WITH A TODDLER: IS HE EVIL?

My second longform video is up! In which we talk about my incredible athletic skills, taking Ls, and what to do afterwards. I've been learning a LOT making these, and I think there's a lot of room to improve but I'm happy with how it turned out: youtu.be/mGvV3ReGlEo?...

People can say it’s utopian or dreamy but it’s a fact that you have to believe new things are possible, fundamentally, in order to make them real. You have to make the choice to believe that more than this is possible & not be resigned to this being the way things have to be because it’s not at all.

So as part of my personal video projects, I've been trying to write 30 mins of flash fiction a week based on a random word. Seems silly but it has been very fun. And guys. Just wrote the coolest shit. Feels amazing. Writing is so good. Words are good.

I've decided to take a serious run at a solo YouTube channel. For now, it's going to exist at the intersection of my two great loves: gaming and fantasy fiction. If you like esports, fireballs or all of the above, come hang: youtu.be/W2vKZ6BMKmI?...

Being a journalist is sick: I just contacted a pre-eminent jaguar conservationist in Argentine with a question that has been weighing on me for ages and he wrote back right away with an informed answer.

A screenshot of WhatsApp:

Ash: Sebastián, I have one very pressing question.
Sebastián Di Martino: Let me know
Ash: Are jaguar soft?
Sebastián Di Martino: They are very soft (two hearts on the answer)

I wasn't sure if I was going to post about it because, honestly, I'm still not entirely sure how I feel. But my last video for theScore, our Worlds doc, has been up for a couple of weeks. A year of work and travel and reporting went into this project: youtu.be/82naZ9LdNqw?...

After a decade of working my dream job, it's over. I was laid off from theScore esports today. Gonna take some time to mourn and be offline. I'll probably have more thoughts later, but for now if you know anyone who needs a writer, producer, or video host, please let me know.

After 10 amazing years, today is my last day at theScore esports. It's been an amazing ride, and I'm so grateful for the career I've had and the people I've met. This isn't the ending that I would have chosen, but in this industry you don't always get to choose your ending.

This is a really great thread that very much encapsulates how I and, I think, many other folks are feeling today. I'm pretty sad, but I do really appreciate the optimism here.

They do make me cheerful just to look at them. Strange to look at an object and think of the weird years sunk into them. Hours and days and weeks and months of strange delights and electrical stresses. What we do with our little lives.

Ursula K. Le Guin on the true pain of being a writer

Screenshot of a single question and answer from interview in the Times Literary Supplement with Ursula K. Le Guin. Here is the quote:

If you could make a change to anything you’ve written over the years, what would it be?

In The Dispossessed, I would mention the communal pickle barrels at street corners in the big towns, restocked by whoever in the community has made or kept more pickles than they need. I knew about the free pickles all along, but never could fit them into the book.

I don't always love social media algorithms but two days ago a TikTok asked me "Why is there only one way to sing caught in the middle?" Today I open YouTube to an 11-minute deep dive on said TikTok. The answer is delightfully nerdy. My heart is happy.

Seems like a lot of esports folks are coming over from the other place so it is a time for re-introductions. I'm Sean, I make videos about video games, and help run a team that makes lots more. I mostly follow League of Legends and fighting games these days. Hi to all the new nerds!

I sit across from Lee "Faker" Sang-hyeok, the greatest LoL player of all time surrounded my camera equipment. For some reason he gave me an interview.

Sean Wetselaar @seanwetselaar.bsky.social · 19/10/2024

One of many amazing things about Faker is that he has been at the top level for so long that almost nothing is new for him. This guy was innovating backwards E jukes on Galio in 2017. He pops back into the #Worlds2024 meta and he's right at home, taking over this game seven years later.
