I am angry tonight. Because tonight ICE shot a New Yorker. They shot a New Yorker while his five year old child was in the car. ICE makes this city less safe. We want them out. Now.

Star Wars: Galactic Racer being a roguelike tells me that fans are sometimes pretty wrong in asking for what they want. For years, I just wanted Need For Speed in Star Wars form, but the roguelike nature of GR is so brilliant in terms of letting players learn, adapt, and FEEL like a podracer.

Well goodness, Esoteric Ebb really stuck the landing for me. I didn’t see that coming.
This is a strange work of fiction. Names, characters, places, and incidents are products of the author's imagination or are used fictitiously. Any resemblance to actual events, locales, or persons, living or dead, is entirely coincidental. Esoteric Ebb takes place in the Esoteric Coast setting, powered by the Esoteric Se ruleset.
The Esoteric Coast™ and all associated elements are created and owned by Christoffer Bodegård.
A HUGE and HEARTFELT thank you to every single person who has bought and played (legally or otherwise) this silly game of mine. While I have had the privilege to work with so many wonderful people for the last two years, Esoteric Ebb has been a lonesome journey for me - sometimes exhausting, sometimes joyful - but lonely. Eight years of trial and error, of burning savings, of ignoring good advice, and desperately slamming fingers on keyboards until something clicked. Despite that, all of this is only possible thanks to the support of everyone who wasn't in that dark room with me: my friends and players, my family and colleagues. To all those online and those in real life who believed in the game when it was worth believing in, and even more so when it was not. Thank you for helping me grind towards something meaningful. Let's hope the next one's even better.
Christoffer Bodegård

Men, you are part of the problem unless you are willing to make yourself uncomfortable in the pursuit of stopping abuse in its tracks. Social media posts are not cutting it. Step the fuck up, please, because this is how a 10-year-old abuse gets swept away so these abusers can start over guilt free.

feeling this hard -- i am so glad that there is an actual conversation that's taking place around cornell, and that survivors coming forward isn't being dismissed as 'woke 1' or whatever the fuck. and it's also hard to ignore that we've been here before, in the recent past, and nothing changed.

If you are funding Jacob’s work, you should reconsider. I’m sure the other folks at MinnMax are fine (I hope?) but I’ll be eagerly awaiting how they respond, and reacting based on that response. We need to name and shame rapists. Jacob Geller, the Cornell 7, Donald Trump. All of them.

DoorDash spent $1.4M trying to stop Zohran Mamdani from becoming mayor. This week's historic $131.5M enforcement action against DoorDash for underpaying NYC delivery workers shows why. Yet another reminder that the only thing that can beat organized money is organized people.

A photo from Stardom, a Japanese women's wrestling federation. Perfectly centered is a woman on her knees leaning forward against the ropes. Five women in fun, colorful, sparkly outfits are all mid-air launching towards her to deliver flying kicks to her back, lined up close to each other and about to land their attacks all at once.
