Hollywood idea: New series of Police Academy movies but about ICE and with much darker humorous ends for the cadets.

I've been to the madness that was E3, as well as GDC, PAX, and several other games cons. I still do some cons but not nearly as much of a circus as what it once was. All that to get to my AMA question! What were your best and worst moments at a game con?

Whatever happened to the Peperidge Farm guy? Seems like a perfect opportunity for those old two to do a buddy/old guy movie together.

It's crazy the trends that happen on Bluesky vs Twitter. Right now, I see lots of posts on tomatoes coming in ripe and cooking with homegrown recipes on Bluesky. On Twitter, it's the same hate and bigotry it's been for a long time.

Obsessing over a company logo is so tribal. In fact all of the hate and bigotry in the world just goes back to tribalism. Humanity can never seem to move away from that.

Thank you to everyone for pushing back on this and speaking truth for people like me. I never thought I would be in a position where I felt the need to flee my home country. But I am extremely lucky my career took me overseas before this administration took hold.

To be fair, I don't believe in conspiracy theories, but this presidency is filled with lies, and I highly doubt its legitimacy. He cried about unfairness when he lost, and this time, I think he just cheated, but no one can call him out because of the tantrum he threw.

At what point do scruples kick in over the need for money. All of the people involved in this, the construction, the staffing, and the citizens of the state; all have to be held complicit in creating a modern atrocity in the name of getting paid.

That's a nice thought, but anytime there is a restriction of knowledge, it's typically used for bad reasons. I personally feel like everyone should know of everyone else's religious beliefs and practices. It's how we ensure that we can deal with the moral code of others and be respectful.
