I’ve been in the Aussie games industry full time for two years now (well, very nearly) and somewhat around the indie scene too and I’m very glad but also slightly worried that idk about any drama. Glad cus obviously I don’t want drama. Worried because I don’t know who’s dangerous and who to avoid.

If people remembered that I fucked up for 2 years I’d be livid. If a time traveller told me my fuck up was remembered for thousands of years though id be so happy id probably die right there. Are you kidding? That’s so funny!!!

I find the story of Hegelochus unreasonably funny. Imagine dying and the only trace of you millennia later is the time you accidentally said you saw a weasel in a tragic play in front of a packed audience, because people mocked you about it for centuries. (Thread for ease)

One thing I believe more and more as I push myself creatively is that you don’t need to, and nor should you, intentionally write metaphors into your work. “Metaphors are real. Human philosophies meet nature and make metaphors” They’ll just show up. The best ones show up, and you nurse them quietly

Sometimes I forget that I’ve interviewed three professional authors in front of an audience, each for a full hour. I for real have interviewer experience. How do I get to do that again?? I want to interview more! I love interviewing!!

I know it’s stupid to complain about spelling differences between American English and Australian/British English, but from a purely decorum point of view, American English looks baby mode. Rationalize? Okay little buddy I know you like Zs cus they’re edgy but use an S like an adult. Color? No. 👶

been having the music/games 'industry' parallel on the mind all the way through games week, and that always leads back to me thinking about steve albini being essentially my standard for the kind of person i want to be in a scene/community. heres a little something from a reddit ama he did ages ago

Connections don't mean shit. I've never had any connections that weren't a natural outgrowth of doing things I was doing anyway. Additionally, the people you might make connections with who work in the industry and value connections themselves, all those people are clueless assholes with no clout anyhow. You can tell because they think they can get somewhere with connections and spend their energy trying to make connections rather than being good at things, and being good at things is the only thing that earns you clout or connections. It's a myth that you can get anywhere in music through connections. The guy on the other end of the connection has to be into what you're doing, and if you're doing it publicly and he's receptive, he probably hears about it on his own. Don't worry about anything but making music you like. Everything else is bullshit.

Sorry to MTG post but I just put into words why I left the hobby. Universes beyond isn’t just “not MTGs soul” it’s literally THE OPPOSITE of what MTG was good at. The primary reaction they want from IP in Magic is “Oh I know what that’s a reference to.” It’s a world we *already know* 1/2

New “most embarrassing moment of my life” just dropped Met the CEO of Hipster Whale. She said “I’m the CEO of hipster whale” while I was taking a sip of my gin and tonic. I said “Oh my god!” With such surprise that I spat an ice cube onto the ground Somehow she kept talking to me and it was nice
