It’s true
He's as flawed as a person gets, but his art has moved me deeply and inspired me as a creator. I'm grateful for that horrible idiot man who tries so hard.
l wish Steve-O hadn't gone on Rogan and gotten steamrolled by transphobic hate speech after trying to express sympathy for trans people, and said a lot of polite "uh huh" and "that's a good point" instead of... IDK, leaving? Throwing punches? Not being there in the first place? But I still love him.
WARNING! The stunts you are about to witness may appear to be homosexual in content, but in reality these are only stunts and not a way of life. Steve-O and the producers insist that you do not try any of these stunts ever. If you do you will turn gay and/or die and that's not good. Dying is bad except when you are very very old and living is too painful. If you see a wiener do not look directly at it. Do not attempt to re-enact any stunts you are about to see. Don't be stupid.
Beautiful poetry
Fuckin’ a
Thank you! I’ve never seen myself on the page with such a frequency as in your writing. I don’t know how many times I’ve reread Machine Mandate at this point, but it’s a lot.
there is a *lot* of first-person prose out there that feels vague and impersonal, lacking in immediacy and emotional intimacy, etc. and there is just as much third-person prose that’s exactly the opposite
my unpopular writing opinion: the choice of first- vs. third-person narration has a lot of downstream effects on a story’s prose, but its effect on the reader’s ability to project onto the main character is WILDLY overstated. a competent writer can put you up inside a freak no matter the person
Very well said.
🔥🔥🔥
You’re an incredible writer and game designer, by the way. disiri and I have played through a bunch of your games together and we are consistently blown away. Prophecy Sectors was a delight from start to finish, and tied Tunnels of Vextro together impeccably. We‘re really enjoying the sketches too!
Cube draft is the absolute coolest way to play Magic, in my opinion. It’s also the social phenomenon within Magic that is most (though obviously not fully) distinct from the WOTC consumption machine. If you are interested in Magic, I highly recommend trying to cube sometime! youtu.be/Pddm1gbBuWE

Sam from Rhystic Studies, who studies the multitudes within Magic and those who play it. Girls Night is my attempt to do the same @rhysticstudies.bsky.social
Oh wow, how could I possibly forget Zero Ranger and Void Stranger by @system-erasure.bsky.social. Two absolute masterpieces of storytelling about the coercively self-sacrificial nature of womanhood that transcend their game genres. Fucking incredible, the both of them.

The many works of Sylvie @sylviefluff.bsky.social and Aria @aria.garden on the inseparability of love, pain, longing, and masochism. Clockwork Calamity in Mushroom World is my personal favorite, but there are too many great ones to name. sylvie.itch.io/clockwork-ca...

There are some design notes in this thread. Game design and aesthetic curation goals are interleaved - they’re not separable anyway.

Relatedly, I‘m guesting on @commandzoe.bsky.social’s stream on April 11th and we are drafting Girls Night, my spikey #mtgcube about the joys and terrors of living and dying as a woman. There’s rather a lot of feminist subtext to all the exploitation and corrective violence.
Come check it out!
i need to think of something to do with this platformer other than making challenging obstacles to avoid, it's like miyamoto said, when pornography becomes grotesque only the strong can jack off, or whatever.
