It was a pleasure to present on the Ecology, Environmentalism, and Climate Change panel today at the @CGSAACEV annual conference. I'll have my paper, "Dreams of Extraction: The Techno-Ecological Imaginary of Bethesda Game Studios' Starfield," up on on Zenodo soon.

We're on 💙☁️🦋!
Of course, we'll still be posting here. But skeet on over (aspirationally) clearer weather!

T-minus 2 days to submit your CGSA 2024 abstracts! The theme is "Sustenance" and we are so hungry for your ideas 😋😋😋
