This book sounds great and also makes me think about Woman at War which is also toeing a line of absolute conviction and comedy (in place of thriller) and climate crisis youtu.be/U2v3_jHrvBQ

Good to see a reviewer hit that fine balance of, ‘I would like this book to have done X’ but also ‘Perhaps it doesn’t want to be that type of novel’ And it makes me want to buy the book anyway bc hell, who doesn’t like a good thriller? theguardian.com/books/2023/mar

Unclench your jaw everyone

I can’t stop thinking about the fact that my dentist told me the other day that your teeth are only supposed to touch for about 6 minutes a day. And that’s mainly while chewing. Like, hang on, you’re NOT supposed to stress-clench your jaw 24 hours a day? IMPOSSIBLE.

Depending on some things, I may be looking for freelance games writing/narrative work soon. I like the emotional power of humour & stories that work together with puzzles. IFComp, Spring Thing and Xyzzy winner, knower of Ink, Inform 7, TADS, exp in UE4/5 and O3DE (1/2)

Nordic Game should have known what happened- the people in charge are still there. With the organizers threatening victims, I’m curious if this investigation was even able to get the full picture.

Things have gotten to the place where I’m ordering pizza even though I know all the pizza near me is terrible. Bottom of the barrel day, buds.

A thing larger WFH orgs should do: match fund conversion to solar panels and air source heating in the homes of their workers.

This week on Greening the Games Industry I wrote about @afterclimate's 2022 carbon footprint, and shared how I'm using some simple tools to calculate our WFH emissions. Its a method any WFH/distributed team looking for better data can use. gtg.benabraham.net/afterclimates-

Much love to the Third Angel team. They were foundational to my career & many others’, collaborators on some of my favoe works of performance & play, the first board I ever served on, and friends too! I know this move is positive for them so I offer the most fond farewell. ❤️❤️❤️
