44 years on this earth. This has been one of the hardest years of my life, and I feel its weight for sure, but I’m eternally grateful for the privilege of growing older.

Tarja sitting wearing a black leather jacket and green red striped pants. She has a colorful flowery headband and black acarf. Smiling slightly and looking at the camera.

❤️

Please never forget
How brave it is
To continue to show up
In a story that looks so
Different than what
You thought it'd be.
Please never forget
How brave it is
To dream up next chapters
While honoring the ones That closed so painfully.
Please never forget
How brave it is, To continue
To explore next pages
Despite feeling
Fear and anxiety.
Please never forget
How brave it is, To hope and dream
Amidst the uncertainty.
-Liz Newman

Spent some time with my husband in the place where we properly talked for the first time like 27 years ago.

This is how we do it. Ft. @mxfee.bsky.social @chrisdeleon.bsky.social

Screenshot of two bsky posts in the bsky feed. Mx Fee writes “No alt text, no repost. It's quite simple, really. If it was actually worth posting you would have made sure it was accessible.”

Post below it is from Chris who quotes a comic strip post with “hell yeah +alt so my friends can share it”.

Post by @NonhleBeryl. What's something you didn't realize was going to consume so much of your time as an adult?
Reply from @JagisOffline. Making food and eating that food and then cleaning up all of that mess and then planning what more food to buy because I've now eaten some of my food and then going out to buy that food.

Happy to be back as a judge at the DevGAMM Awards! Last year me and other 150+ experts reviewed 610 games from 69 countries. Such a great experience, and I’m grateful to see all the folks boldly contributing to the industry, especially now that times aren't the easiest. <cont>
