Growing up my parents used "Billerica" like "Timbuktu" to mean "a place that is unfathomably far away."

TIL that Billerica is just a city in Massachusetts that is 30 minutes away from my parents' house

Missing all my friends who are at Gen Con... but not missing Indianapolis. Sorry Indianapolis.

Big announcement!!!

I will be working with the folks at @unstablegames.bsky.social to set up a brand new sister studio as the lead game designer!

You may know them as the people behind Unstable Unicorns, Here to Slay, and more.

I’m so so excited for the future, and what we will create together!

kind of remarkable to tie your reasonably respected brand to "big toilet" but congrats i hope it's magical as fuck or whatever

Just in case you find yourself looking for a great word association game for whatever reason, I always have highly recommended Phantom Ink by @resonym.com

When I ate the red one I was CERTAIN it was going to be strawberry due to the swirl

Mean: mixing readily identifiable but similarly shaped fruit and peppermint candies
Cruel: not making you able to tell by pattern
Evil: this thing that you’re suggesting

Make me a liar. You’re pretty close. Orange and green apple I think

4 disc-shaped candies. Orange with swirls, green with swirls, green without swirls, red with swirls

4 disc-shaped candies. Orange with swirls, green with swirls, green without swirls, red with swirls

Some of these are fruit flavored, some peppermint. Can you guess which is which? (No, you can’t)

The person who put these in a variety pack is a menace

I don’t remember this but my sister swears it happened:

DOCTOR PREPPING ME FOR SURGERY: Drugs? Alcohol?
ME: (sedated) None. I’ve never had a drink.
DR: Really! Wow.
ME: (jiggling my big fat belly) I prefer other indulgences.
DR: Ha ha, such as?
ME: Other men’s wives.

I’ve been keeping meticulous notes rating every shower I’ve encountered while traveling. Maybe this needs its own Bluesky account?

It’s so cool when game developers branch out into other media. The creators of Myst designed this AirBnB’s shower controls.

Well if it's allowed... I did learn screen printing to be able to make them more reasonably and probably make more than 7 XD

Absolutely you should. It was a wonderful experience

Do it. This was a wonderful experience. If I had a game that was ready I would 100% be submitting

Alt text. This is pretty awful, but probably what has to be done to preserve the service at all.

IMLS still has a chance- please make sure to show support.

Very unhappy that human outsides are all symmetrical but our insides aren’t

We absolutely should have done this.

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
