every time we enter this political moment, people refer to Octavia's Parables and call her an oracle, a prophet, a futurist; someone with a preternatural ability to see a world we can't. meanwhile, she'd say the opposite. she was an observer of the present: antiableistcomposition.com/wp-content/u...

just in case anyone wondered what was going on the background of my life, and people i value, trust, consider friends etc's lives, all last year.
Five creators who worked on Yazeba's Bed & Breakfast have spent the past year fighting a legal battle against Possum Creek Games and Steve Jackson Games. Neither the tabletop RPG nor their working relationships survived the fallout.
Battle over Yazeba’s Bed & Breakfast contracts leaves the book, relationships, torn apart
Creative collaborators clash with Jay Dragon and Steve Jackson Games over unfair treatment.

That triangle of “good to work with”, “hits deadlines”, and “excellent work” is real, but best results occur if you always hit those deadlines

Most of the soldiers i served with were correctional officers and PD for their day jobs. They were so okay committing murder if they perceived a threat to their lives, no matter how contrived.
My main point was that U.S. police officers are, one to one, much more violent than U.S. soldiers, and much likelier to commit murder at close range out of anger.

I wrote an article about dialogue choice as part of a narrative designer’s toolkit *aside* from branching, instead considering how choice can invite us to *perform* a character.
My case study is South of Circle’s beautiful fuzzy meaning-making (using symbols instead of words). 💜 Give it a go!

Most of us did not choose to write or draw or design so that we could put products on the shelf. We chose to do it because it’s a set of skills we enjoy exercising, that give us fulfillment.
It’s like asking a pro pitcher to just let a machine pitch for them. Fuck off and give me the ball.
