Shot from the stands of the Bad Bunny halftime show.

What a moment.

A little off but close enough

Emerging from post-Sundance hibernation to declare: I'm on the lookout for a new full-time job. Seeking Chicago-based or remote editing and writing opportunities—don't have to be in the field; I'm extremely open to copywriting, technical writing, marketing stuff, etc. Email and portfolio in profile.

And what if Lady Gaga showed up during the Super Bowl halftime show to perform underrated “Born This Way” banger “Americano”? What THEN?

Oh fully. I am BEGGING for a little more imagination!!

Something about the “reveal” feels as icky as the project itself? Just clearly not thought-through and feels like HBO and Hasbro… don’t respect what they’re working with?

I am no longer in entertainment media. I am no longer in games media. None of this has any bearing on my day to day anymore. None of this, honestly, really matters. That said…

Why do you drop news of a Baldur’s Gate 3 HBO show after work hours on a Thursday on DEADLINE?!

YESSSSS I’m genuinely so excited to read this

Good morning!

February marks the 10th anniversary of Stardew Valley. I had the great pleasure of speaking to ConcernedApe ahead of the occasion about the last ten years and his plans for the future. It's a nice long one, please enjoy:

My great nerd shame is that I’ve never done a Star Trek, but I’ve gotta say, I’m really enjoying this Starfleet Academy

(Love you forever and you DID deserve defending from that bullshit)

The luxury of being dragged for your bad takes and not… everything else 🫠 The luxury! I yearn to be judged for my shitty opinions!

I like the liquid glass iOS update 😔

I am an unabashed Christopher Nolan stan, but I do think it would be really funny if The Odyssey just sucks

Ideally I will drag her into being my coworker at a third place, but if you’re smart, you will beat me to it 🤔

Fun fact: I first worked with Alyssa at Variety, and she was so good that when I left for IGN I said “damn, how do I get Alyssa over here too?” So I can personally vouch for how adaptable, talented and creative she is and SO fun to work with. The STRONGEST of recommendations

What an absolutely perfect sport

A text exchange that says “So I think awhile ago you told me I had to watch The Substance. I’m just now watching it but I took an edible not knowing what this was gunna be, sos.” The recipient responds “ALYSSA NOOOOO”

Thoughts and prayers to my sister, oh my god

Sorry to double dip on this announcement, but what was once a temp job is permanent as of today. Officially Letters Editor at the Los Angeles Times ✨

I’ve loved overseeing the Letters to the Editor section for the past nine months and now I get to keep doing it and I just think that’s neat.

*Meg thee Stallion voice* my man my man my man my man my man

I should be devastated and all i can think about is that gd throw. That. Throw.

This game also clearly showed Caleb is the real deal. Chicago finally has a Dude. He's the truth. As a Rams fan I was scared shitless of him when he had the ball. Not too many QBs I feel that way about.

And don’t forget the wired headphones

To everyone cheering the Bears’ loss… I hope you enjoy a much more boring playoffs without us!

Generational talent. Caleb fucking Williams.

We played like hell. What a fucking season. I love them forever.

Every Caleb Williams play

Da Bears

I can’t believe I’m alive to see this
