This goes into that “deprofessionalization” of the game industry article that went around a few months ago. People who don’t understand the work or care about the value of the people doing the work or honestly even care about quality at all. They just want to not have to pay workers.

I imagined trying to get through bug reports written by an LLM and immediately got an honest to god headache. What do you mean I can’t even go back to the person who wrote it and ask for more details because there isn’t one, but it can still make shit up?

I asked about Game Awards press tickets in October. Got an email yesterday encouraging me to buy my own, as there were no spares.

The Future Class page was taken down sometime this year—eliminating a definitive archive of honorees.

What I found hilarious was getting the honor of being future class and then told we couldnt walk the red carpet. What was the nail in the head for me was being put in a corner a few years ago behind the camera and then made to feel like we should be thankful for even being in the room.

Junonia is a Hobgoblin, Smuggler Wizard.

Her spell book is made of carved teeth, ivory & shells that she wears across her body & hair.

Her wetsuit is made by the drow from giant nudibranch leather.

Inspiration for her coat is a 1947 Charles James evening coat.
