Good morning! 🙋🏿‍♂️ M. Haynes over in blu-er skies. My bio says most of the important stuff, but if you're into:

-Black Speculative Fiction
-video games
-Pop culture from an academic standpoint
-writing, especially spec fic writing
-And pretty much everything Black and queer you're in the right place!
Yep. At a club 😅. We vibed and danced for some fast and a slow song or two. I've never been at in an environment to slow dance with one of my exes though, unfortunately.
To all my Black Queer men on here, have you ever slow danced with another man?

And if so, do you remember when and why?

I've had the digital version since release but just like with Hades 1 I will be double dipping. The games are just too good.
We're pleased to announce the physical edition of HADES II is now in stores worldwide! It includes:

🌖#NintendoSwitch2 & Switch versions on one card
📗Character Compendium booklet
🎼Soundtrack download code
🖼️Reversible cover

I wish South of Midnight was in Art Direction or music, but for the most part this is pretty much what I expected. My biggest issue is Expedition 33 being in the indie categories though, which may be partially informed by my wanting Blue Prince or Dispatch to get Debut Indie.
The nominees for The Game Awards 2025 have been revealed.

Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 is up for 12 awards, followed by PlayStation titles Death Stranding 2: On the Beach and Ghost of Yotei with 8 nominations each.

It's always funny how much people say these awards "don't matter" but still watch and post about them constantly lol. Anyway, as long as Expedition 33, Hades II, and Blue Prince get SOMETHING I'll be happy. It would be nice if South of Midnight and Dispatch get noms (even if they don't win) as well.
The Game Awards 2025 Nominees will be announced on Nov 17th, 9 AM PT www.youtube.com/live/GxUUJ-C...

Played the first episode of Dispatch last night and it's pretty fun already. Prob gonna try to catch up before the finale (?) next week. I've never played one of these Telltale Games-style narratives but if this is what they're like I get why they were so beloved.

CONFIRMED: Georgia Democrats have won their first statewide elections for non-federal offices since *2006.*

The two Dem challengers, Alicia Johnson and Peter Hubbard, have ousted two GOP Republican commissioners on the state's utility commission.

I've been to New York a grand total of once in my life, but I'm very glad for them. Here's hoping he is able to make some real change.

I'm trying to meet the game where it's at but after the EXCELLENT voice acting in Expedition 33 and Hades II these silent cutscenes in Pokémon Legends Z-A are killing me 🙃

Listening to channel Orange for the first time in years and man I forgot how great this album is. No wonder we were all feening for more Frank afterwards.

It's not cold here (yet) but I'm keeping this in my back pocket for when it does get there. I HATE the cold.
