In Esoteric Ebb, men talk to men about manhood, and that's a good thing It does not shy away from the things many of us are always thinking about when we interact with others, like, “Who are you voting for?” and “What does being a man mean to you?”

The best D&D game since Baldur's Gate 3, *and* it contends with gender? Yes, please. By @zoehhannah.com

Dear Mother, what should I play while the baby sleeps? It's never too early to start training a baby gamer, right?

After my ADHD diagnosis, I began to rethink how I play games Gaming can be a very seductive way to self-medicate, or at least self-soothe

I wrote about my #ADHD diagnosis (and mental health) and how it changed my relationship with gaming for the first time since I got diagnosed 4 years ago, for @mothership.blog

You know what, Resident Evil: Requiem? Fatness isn't scary Body shape shouldn't be a punchline either, by the way

Managing hostesses in Yakuza 0's cabaret club is a surprisingly feminist mini-game Club Sunshine, it seems, can change the lives of all who enter

This is a good article, and I would add: engage with all the people in a meeting. Even just by greeting and acknowledging them, or making brief eye contact/asking a question or two. Don't laser focus on the "most important" person and (even unintentionally) ignore/freeze the others out.

If you see me at GDC and you’re in trouble I will 100% get you out of there even if I haven’t met you before.

Quick note for men: I have lifelong friends in both my fields who are women, folks I text their relatives random stuff — and even with them I ask permission to go from point A to B.

Do not follow ladies around, full stop. Have your own agenda and do not cling. Read the rest of the tips here too.
