In May '25, a beloved Australian games website was sold off. It went dark then, a month later, rose from the dead but stuffed full of gambling links and AI authors.
It wasn't the first time, or the last time, this exact thing had happened. And it's still happening.
My months-long investigation 👇
we switched mostly for cheaper domain / email, and it's been mostly fine, just expect the feature sets to feel like 10 years ago. e.g. drive app phone photo sync is weird, mac drive app can't sync shared folders yet... lots of multi-platform edge cases

watched Tea & Sympathy (1956)... tried it for the queer themes, but stayed for the drama, and the age gap stuff still feels transgressive today

"Letting go of Evo"
I wrote about why I'm breaking my Evo attendance streak (every year since 2011; first Evo was 2003). It's sad, but I think this a good opportunity to celebrate the Evo moments that got me here before moving on.
