I gave Sydney a lot of guff for the littering problem when I first moved here but I'm starting to suspect the problem is at least 90% Ibis' picking stuff out of the garbage.

@desertbus.org will fangamer be restocking the DB2024 shirt during this run?

I remember, at the beginning of the run, it had a "restock soon" notification. Graham said that was an error, and it would be back in stock shortly, but now it's not on the website at all.

i played news tower and because it's me i had an existential crisis about it
Finally out of early access, News Tower puts you in control of a Depression-era newspaper and makes you immediately question your ethics. It's surprisingly accurate, writes former actual newspaper employee @midimyers.com. www.avclub.com/news-tower-g...

I think if there's someone you like, it's hard to dislike their writing. But it's definitely possible to dislike the writing of someone you love.

"Love" and "like" in this context are not mutually exclusive.

POSSESSOR(S) is launching today.

I have been the producer on this project for three years, & the last few weeks have been difficult. Most of the team isn't around anymore to celebrate the launch, so I wrote many words about these incredible people to celebrate them.
