Awesome library hotel!

Every evening I go out to the meme farms to harvest what the day has wrought and present them as an offering to my girlfriend.

but perhaps in the future 🤔

I'm hoping if it has good attendance I can pitch a couple more specialty topics for consideration like - queer representation within games, horror game history, and procedural generation collaboration: an overview of human authored computer assemblage in roguelikes 😊🕹️

I don't believe this one is 😓

Happy Trans Day of Visibility 🏳️‍⚧️
I hope we all have a wonderful day 💕
(Everyone stay safe in these unpresidented unprecedented times)

Super excited my NarraScope 2025 talk: Ergodic Narrative: A Brief Exploration of Multimodal Video Game Engagement was accepted for this summers conference! 🕹️😊📚🎉

officially wrapped up all my (game) design PhD applications! 🎉📚🎶🕹️😊

Here lies my joke about Aristotle being the godfather of taxonomy: “Knowing what something is - is the same as knowing why it is” and his suffered liminality when meeting genderqueer individuals only to find relief in moments of indexicality... okay I see maybe why now.

Gf's quote of the day while I am banging my head writing my proposal "If you are quoting a philosopher, babe, you've gone too far.".

I've been on an early Imogen Heap kick recently listening to I Megaphone and Speak for Yourself over and over this weekend as I wrote some academic papers 📚 🎶

Working on PhD applications.
The world is harsh and people cruel; I just want to make games, study ludonarrative design, and ramble about trans & queer representation. 🏳️‍⚧️🏳️‍🌈🕹️🧩💕

Being trans right now is being considered so insignificant that you're hardly worth defending while also so much of a threat that you're worthy of annihilation.

It’s dehumanizing on all sides.

A “Gender Critical” and “TERF” Primer for readers trying to make sense of “feminists versus transgender activists” debates

since all the "gender critical"/TERFs are migrating here, thought I'd share this primer explaining their history, dissecting their beliefs, & debunking their talking points. no-paywall links, pls share!

Nerdess tour poster shows poster dates for June and July 2024 including many prides such as Pocono, capital, Lancaster, York, Lititz, New Cumberland, and Berks In PA. posture is done in the style of blue and yellow speckles and doodles with some Red, white, yellow text that give a collage impression

Excited to announce my current summer show dates! 🎶💕🎉

I had a lot of fun making this poster (nothing like distracting from one project with another!) I even used an ancient notebook doodle from a decade back! 🎨

I'm having so much fun recently building a video game design history and mini practical class! During one section I go over platformers in general - then have a subsection into Metroidvanias & a further subsection of Castlevanias. 🕹️ I'm enjoying learning about them so much 😊 What are your favorites?
