I help make a video game (Senior Game Designer II, WoW). Views expressed are not those of my employer. Cats, books, games, anime, MN sports, sumo, and other assorted nonsense.

Proud of myself for debugging a problem I was having in a 2XKO combo by myself but a bit confused after looking up resources why none of the wikis mention you need to microdash after [S2] in Braum's M>2H>2H>[S2]>M>[ender] combo.

Everyone clap for this precious little creamsicle who did not menace the facilities person. Clara was also an angel but hid in the closet.

Back when we needed to print out emails because no smartphone. Definitely one of those "the direction of my life changed because of this" artifacts.

If my sporadic 2XKO posting interests you but you aren't sure where to start, Core-A put together a great guide.

(today at lunch I just did my dailies but was proud of myself for mostly blocking a predictable vi/yasuo freestyle sandwich)

I saw that too and felt he really is one of the best people to be ambassador to non-Xrd players.

I don't know why I get so damned anxious about Christmas presents. Such a bizarre personal failing - I always leave it later than I should and then rush as a result.

Hello, it is a grim and cloudy #Caturday over here but we might get some sun later on…maybe…but this little man doesn’t want to get his hopes up.

Just wanted to have a weekend where I bought some Christmas presents and baked some cookies :( Why does my godforsaken meat sack have to be so garbage?

Since this year's Resshoumania theme was stakes, we decided to homage Kaiji/Akagi, and I subsequently had way too much fun designing the shirt. Screenprinted locally by Oaklandish, 100% midweight cotton 😎

I think this is the first time I've ever gotten a good sleep score? Maybe the medication switch is working!

I will never get over Eels songs being labeled as "from Shrek Soundtrack" / "from Shrek 2 Soundtrack." Cooks my noodle every time.
