Goodbye for now, Seattle – Great, full week of SLICE, Seattle Games Tech Summit, PAX, SIX, working sessions in adjacent suburbs, and catching up with colleagues past and current. Now – Off to Vancouver for XDS!
The Muppets debuted 50 years ago this weekend. I loved watching those as a kid with my parents, and with my kids, with me as theirs. Thank you, Jim Henson, his family, The Jim Henson Company, & every passionate person who has stayed true to the Muppets, and the joy they bring.

Tough to articulate how grateful I am to be invited to APM this year, and I learned so much from the Arm team, their partners, our joint customers, and a whole bunch of new-to-me folks. Really enjoyed being back in Cambridge. Cool stuff continues....
OK – I think I'm mentally ready for Cabbage this week! (Last-minute personal challenges aside, I'm here, I really like this town, its history, its legacy, and the innovation that comes out of the people at the schools here.)
Caught a matinee with part of the family before I jumped on my flight for the UK. No spoilers, but I quite like it. The character of the character matters.
I recently had the opportunity to respond to someone apologizing for impacts due to a loss in their life Not sharing details, and acknowledging I'm not a counselor or mental health professional, this was part of my response, in case it's helpful for someone.
SDCC! Less than a week I'll see a bunch of you awesome pop culture industry folk in California for San Diego Comic-Con!
