Imagine performatively hiring someone to solve your organization's DEI problems, not empowering them or giving them adequate support to enact change while expecting them to work within existing white power structures, and then being surprised when they "underperform". 🤔

I am still wearing a mask indoors and increasingly I am the only one. Case rates and test positivity in my state exceed what we saw in the delta wave and hospitalizations not far behind. I wanted to avoid covid then and I want to avoid covid now. It's worth it to me to mask up.

the games industry is bullshit bc capitalism is bullshit, bc nations are bullshit, bc the structure of our unjust world is bullshit, but that doesn't mean that what each of us does is meaningless. we can make it meaningful by choosing compassion, mutuality, meaningful solidarity

Time again for the - small text size in games can't be read from a couch. If you put text in games and expect players to read it, 12pt is NOT acceptable.

One more time for the people in the back: the medieval world was diverse because it was THE WORLD.
Danes traded with Persians and vice versa. Africa is over the water from Spain.
Your idea of a whitewashed Middle Ages is patently wrong.
