Sadly, my contract with Blizzard ended in September. That means I'm looking for fulltime or contract work as a senior writer or narrative designer. If you need someone who can write sharp characters, poetic prose, and emotional stories, I'm available! www.hazelmonforton.com

It's #portfolioday! I'm presently a senior narrative designer at Blizzard, but before that I was at Bungie and Arkane. I wrote for the Writer's Guild award-nominated Dishonored: Death of the Outsider, and a bunch of critically acclaimed seasons and expansions in Destiny 2.

Was playing old flash games, and this joke in particular aged extremely well

This game came out 20 years ago

Heihachi: "I just want to die! Namco just won't kill me off...I'm dug my own grave, with flowers and a vase and everything..."

Game is "The Legend of Zelda and the Lampshare of No Real Significane", released 2005

the dems cannot give these guys a funded government without guarantees of cities free of ethnic pogroms and actual article 2 powers. the republicans cannot yield this to the dems because it runs opposite of everything their senile rapist leader demands. I am desperate to believe dems see this now.

When a trans woman dies of natural causes, at an age greater than 75, having lived more than half her life as herself, that is cause for celebration, not mourning.

Thank you, Miss Major.

WA state already passed an HRT stockpile bill and there is no evidence that healthcare costs have risen significantly because of it.

mady castigan✨ 🏳️‍⚧️ @madycast.com · 13h

Newsom vetoes both the PreP access and the HRT stockpile bill because he is worried it would increase healthcare costs...

He claims to support the aims of these bills. But the vetoes deny access to medical care for queer people.

(Context: He vetoed these 2 while signing 8 other queer rights bills)

He also signed SB 590, which bolsters paid family leave.

But "I can't resist because I cannot be even mildly inconvenienced as that is akin to oppression" isn't good faith either. We can't meme or vote our way out of fascism.

"You're not resisting correctly unless you are willing to destroy your entire life and risk your family's safety" isn't good faith. You don't get to volunteer other people for jeopardy.
