I’m not the right person to ask! ☺️

There’s construction going on at Blizzard atm. I was outside talking to a colleague when a dude in a truck with a tractor on the back drove past. He stopped and said “HEY, DO YOU GUYS MAKE VIDEO GAMES?”

“YEAH!” I yelled back.

“THAT’S SO COOL!” he said, then drove away.

He’s right.

It IS cool.

A picture of the facade of the Grove of Anaheim at night. The sigh at the front says “Grove of Anaheim welcomed Josh Johnson.”

The comedy is one thing, but the storytelling chops on this man? The ability to make you feel and think? Otherworldly. He’s a master weaver. I am in awe - it’s like watching someone dance or paint a masterpiece, only it’s all words, all verbal. What an honor to witness, what a gift he is.

YES

A screenshot from Final Fantasy Tactics. Two speech bubbles are on screen. Zalbaag: Where is that Ramza? He should be here at your side! Barbaneth: Though he be not the issue of the womb that bore you, my sons, still my blood courses through his veins. Watch after him.

Happy Final Fantasy Tactics day to all who celebrate! UGH IT’S SO GOOD GIMME THAT DEEP STORY ABOUT DIVISION AND INEQUALITY AND MESSED UP SOCIAL CLASS SYSTEMS RIP MY HEART OUT WHILE I MOVE CUTE LITTLE DUDES AROUND A GRID YES DIRECTLY INTO MY VEINS SQUARE ENIX YESSSSSS.

I am unwell. It’s not the Rona, but I’m miserable.

Things I’ve done to pass time:

* Tried to vibe code an app that keeps track of pro wrestling storylines - ended up hurting my laptop and having to do a system reset, lmao.
* Played Vampire Survivors for the first time. The internet was right.

I’m so sorry, my friend. Sending my love to you and Graham.

I got my California learners permit this week (I can drive in Australia, just not here…YET), and this may or may not come as a shock to you, but insurance companies are not super into insuring a car owned by a 41-year-old learner driver 😂

H A T 🫠😂❤️

A Hilltop Hoods song came on the radio and I said to a guy “oh I saw these guys live 20 years ago” and he goes “what were you, 5 years old?” and I rolled my eyes so hard that my head was akin to a roulette wheel.

The force of the eye roll is, I think, an Oil of Olay sign of aging unto itself.

Two cocktails with orange liquid, whipped cream on top, and an upside-down tiny ice cream cone. They sit on a white tablecloth.

Periodic meet-ups for dinner and fancy cocktails with @christiegolden.bsky.social has a solid place in my hierarchy of needs.

LMAO “bioluminescence” and “roots” 😁

Thanks mate!

I thought of you ☺️ you will ADORE them!

HAT 🥹 ily

Love YOU!

World of Warcraft: Midnight 101 – Everything You Need to Know About the Next Expansion - Xbox Wire From the encroaching Void that threatens all of Azeroth, to the deeply personal decision of what color to dye your dining room chairs, Midnight has it all! Here’s everything you need to know about War...

Lots of work in the lead-up to the Midnight reveal today, including a now-rare, bylined-by-me story! It’s somewhat unhinged, bookended by the screaming (?!) capybaras you find in Zul’aman. Shoutout to the Xbox Wire team who never flinch in the face of my insanity. news.xbox.com/en-us/2025/0...

A collage of my Street Fighter Evo pass that says Sunset, a selfie in my hotel mirror holding my fighting stick, a selfie in the venue of me wearing a mask with the crowd of people playing behind me, and two photos of me playing in my pool.

1-2!!! The win was from a DQ but we take those. It was the best I’ve ever played and I was SO excited at how much I’ve improved ☺️ really amped to keep practicing for next year!

A screenshot of a highlighted message on WhatsApp from me that says “I am forever equal parts always ready and never ready to go to Evo. A paradox.”

OOO till Tuesday. Looking forward to sinking deeply back into humanity; a personification of an exhale who doesn’t need to do anything except hang out with people I love, stay hydrated, and be embarrassingly bad at Street Fighter 6.

✌️

Rode my bike in the afternoon sun to the brewery to grab beers (and hop juice*) to take back home.

I joked with the folks working (mates) about them jumping on my bike with me to escape the busy.

Irvine roads are dead, singing along to Radiohead blaring from my phone.

* a new, amazing discovery

Happy Friday. I’ve sent So Much Writing for review at work; a nice place to be at this time of week. A breath before duck-diving once more.

I hope you’re well ☺️

I’ve been reading a lot, and I am levelling a Tauren warrior in WoW named Caramellatte who looks like she’s going to Coachella.

Dude this sucks 😡😔

Listen, I’m not a scientist. But I’m pretty sure I’m being attacked in this game of “rage cage” because I do not quite get the rules.

I’m laying on my couch reading, and I just had the thought that I don’t think I will have time to read all the books I want to read in my lifetime. I never really thought about that. That’s so sad.

EHEHEHEHEHEHE

🤔

I am at the point where I am seriously considering making a burner account so I can talk about the WWE. And maybe also a pen name purely for WWE think pieces. Oooo, maybe I’ll start a NEWSLETTER.

You’ll never know.
You’ll have NO IDEA.

I’m working for this moment alongside my dear WoW teammates and SO, SO MANY talented developers - their love for what they’re building is so infectious and beautiful and a balm on my soul.

During my meetings with them, my face does this on loop: 😮🥹🥰😱🤯

CAN’T WAIT, WOOP WOOP!

Signed up for preorder notification yeyeyeye!
