I don't know who needs to hear this, but there's a subreddit for Magic Eye puzzles (r/MagicEye) and a lot of them are Pokemon

I really want a taco bell version of a baked potato. It popped in my head a few months ago and I've considered doing a Wendy's/TB night to test it out

I totally get it! I'm similar; something about writing it down is more helpful than typing. Dunno why though

Do you think you'd ever be interested in trying out a program like figma to organize work like this, or is being able to physically write them down critical to the process?

Family 😅 the mom was missing her tail

Single rider is the absolute best!!

EA CEO’s pay is up, as EA worker median income drops Behold, the tallest chart in Game File history. PLUS: EA execs were paid (a little) more for boosting generative AI

NEW: EA CEO Andrew Wilson was paid $30.5 million in cash and stock this past year, up about $5m from a year ago

Since the U.S. requires companies to compare CEO pay to employee pay, I made an EA pay chart

To make it work, I had to make it VERY TALL

Update: I missed my layover due to (non weather related) delays and had to reroute. Glad I've got multiple airport options

Classic Houston weather 🤣 nice stormy send-off today

When I was a kid...

Allergy shots work. I've been back home for over a week at this point with minimal reactions to the cats or seasonal shit. Wish I'd done this 20 years ago

Tray for scale 🤣

It's ~70 where I am according to the weather app and I'm already hot; how am I gonna survive going to Texas next month 🫠

social media is a pvp experience which is why i’m the npc that sits in a tavern and just says random advice like “i heard slimes are weak to fire” and “there’s a monster guarding the cave outside town”

Our NEW mission statement (we're growing). The image also features the IGNCG logo with rainbow coloration on dark blue textured background. Logo created by Julia Rago.

The IGNCG Mission statement exceeds the character limit of bsky's alt text. The first several paragraphs read: “IGN has a lot going on” might be the understatement of the century. At any given time, there are countless irons in countless fires as our teams continue to deliver multi-award winning original coverage of games, film and television, technology and more in both written and video spaces. This fact, as well as the awards, the prestige, and the hundreds of millions of monthly visitors, none of it exists without IGN’s incomparable staff. Together, we have navigated a pandemic, multiple entertainment strikes, massive live events seasons, surprising trailer leaks, and whatever other curveballs the multiple industries that we cover have thrown at us. Through it all we have delivered best-in-class articles, videos, guides, live-events, and more, banding together to ensure IGN remains a top player across industries. Now the IGN creative teams are banding together once more, this time to form the IGN Creators Guild. We are unionizing with the News Guild alongside our colleagues at the Ziff Davis Creators Guild, as well as other leaders in the online media space like the L.A. Times, The New Yorker, Vice, and Time. Of our many goals, we first and foremost want to see IGN grow and thrive as digital media continues to become more and more tumultuous. We have been an institution for over 25 years, and the creators of IGN want to see it continue for 25 more and beyond. But to do so, we need support. We need fair and competitive pay for all, including those who are asked to live and work in some of the most expensive cities in the United States; affordable health insurance; and better diversity, equity, and inclusion across the board. We need protection against layoffs amid a hectic media landscape, guarantees of reasonable compensation when those layoffs cannot be avoided, as well as protections against generative AI and similar technologies.

Our little union is getting a bit bigger!

Today, we proposed the addition of our product, engineering, and Humble Bundle folks into our unit.

Join us in welcoming our peers and asking IGN Entertainment Inc. management to voluntarily recognize their addition into our union!

Officially entered maintenance phase for allergy immunotherapy and I'm so excited!! But also it's crazy how long this process takes - I'm looking at 2-3 years of weekly shots 😅
Worth it if at the end I can bury my face in a cat's fur though

I successfully did a backbend in stretching class and now I kinda just wanna do backbends all the time, like it's a cool party trick.

The Nintendo World Store in San Francisco’s Union Square, which is preparing to open to the public on May 15th.

Soon.

Yeah I didn't either, in hindsight though it's a brilliant idea

Sometimes I wish Google+ had survived. When I think through existing social media and what I dislike, I feel like their "circles" setup was a really good solution for curated content through a single account. Oh well 🙃

Today* not that. Ugh lol

The answer is The Blue Prince, especially on a gloomy ass day like that

I think we're in third winter this week in the Bay 😴 and it was just raining too

OMG TYSM, will definitely do when I get back to it!! Blue Prince tonight though hehehe

I had to do the same; glad I'm not alone lol

Also if you end up watching it I wanna know what you thought 😅

That's encouraging 😅 I only ever watched the first two seasons and now I'm so behind
