This is such a nice thing to say! Thank you to everyone who’s bought my book or borrowed it from their local library! Available now everywhere, indie bookstore and otherwise. I also read the audio book, so that’s fun.

YEAH, THAT'S RIGHT! I HAVE WRITTEN A NEW ARTICLE!
this one's a bit weird; rather than doing my usual "trying to organize my thoughts and building a winding case that builds on itself," I decided to show you what my EARLY article creation process looks like:

some loosely organized thoughts about dialogue sysin games
think of this as me trying to find out what parts of dialogue choices are load bearing game design and what else can be done with dialogue.

The coordinated nature of this—none are facing voters in 2026—means that either Schumer approved it or failed in his job as Senate Majority Leader to stop it.
Dems voting "no" get zero credit until they demand a change in leadership. Schumer out as Leader, Durbin out as Whip.

I'm going to admit something to you. This might be my canceling or whatever cool youths says these day. Mustarded, maybe. But when I'm putting a foreign language movie I've already seen on in the background (e.g. while working) sometimes I will switch to the English language dub

Wondering why no one likes your posts anymore, even among your friends? It's because @jay.bsky.team and team have decided to hide a huge amount of content from all of our feeds by default.

I know AI is “just a tool” and any tool can be used for horrible things, but at least a hammer doesn’t tell you to end your own life
1.This is not the only known example we know of ChatGPT cheering on a vulnerable young person to die by suicide, this time it is a recent Texas A&M grad
2. Every single university that has invited OpenAI into our midst should be asked to account for their choices.

WOW. 81% of women 18-29 voted for Mamdani, 80% for Sherril, and 78% for Spanberger.

I love Brad Lander. I just want him to hang around the city and say hi to folks. Called something like “the city’s buddy.” He asks if you need a coffee or something when he runs to the bodega. You have to venmo him after but he’ll round down and ask for less than it cost
Brad Lander is at the victory party and, folks, he has the custom one-of-one “GOOD FUCKING RIDDANCE” shirt.
