That sucks. Your voice was one of the reasons I subscribed to The Verge. Sincerely hope you get to continue doing video game journalism. I found this while listening to the latest Insert Credit [friend of the show] and at least look forward to more of that!
Dad hero moment of the day. I was late on the preorders and Frye wasn’t out on the shelf, and Frye is his favorite. Big Man takes up so much space I thought Frye might be in back, asked and she was! He’s gonna be so happy after school!
Like with the child tax credit, it's neat how the federal government demonstrated it could substantially improve the lives of impoverished families and then decided "nah."
I think the first reaction was my brain trying to get it to conform to something that COULD make sense in any way.
It took my brain so long to parse this image. At first I thought it was mystery bags of mini frozen desserts (like, open it and it could be a tiny ice cream bar, or a little frozen cookie dough) until I realized you weren't on the freezer aisle. It's just...mystery bags of tiny fake boxes???
We installed it for you so you could turn the lights on and off! Not so you could post about it on BSky!
In an impossibly cool move, Joe Murray, creator of Rocko's Modern Life, has noticed his book about creating animation is out of print and massively over-priced on the second hand market.

I’m organizing a Karaoke party in Chicago during a certain large Cloud conference this year. I need two more sponsors at $2k each to make it happen. If you know a place that might be interested please share this prospectus!

What I really want on the Barbie album is the version of Pink from the second morning where Lizzo is like “oh no, that milk is expired!”
Two (three?) months after very unexpectedly becoming a manager again I finally had a week where I lifted heavy things three times and jogged once. Taking back control of my days from the many, many meetings that want to steal them.
He’s so good at making dumb face.

To be fair the third act is Rob realizing that.
“Top five songs about transformation, go”
Rob: “1. Both Sides Now by Joni Mitchell. 2 Changes by David Bo-“
Barry: “NOPE. Stop. Obvious Bullshit. New rule the song may not have ‘change’ or ‘transform’ in the title what were you gonna pick next Rob the fucking Transformers theme song???”
I was finally able to get people at my company on board with shutting our account down there after the CSAM incident. I had one last DM convo going and gave the person my email “in case Elon makes DMs only for Blue or something” and the next day CSAM; the other person sent their email. I’m out.
If you haven’t watched The Orville yet this is the B plot of at least two episodes.
That first year we wore Halloween costumes that were like unitards of that cheap foam stuff and nearly died. “Dry heat” only goes so far. Ovens are a dry heat lol. Got our Master’s degrees and moved to Denver…where it has now been high 90s for two weeks.
We moved to Arizona in August of 2012 and when summer was over were like “ok, that wasn’t so bad.” The next year when we realized it began in May we started saving up to move.

I don’t want to like any of that so I’ll just say you win the award for worst travel story of the year. Condolences.
I’ve been watching a lot more with the new clock. Baseball lost me when every pitch became a five minute battle of wills and re-upping your sunscreen and pine tar every other fake out.
I kind of want to change my handle everywhere to this new one but I have actual things that depend on my GitHub and Gitlab repos now, and I know it forwards but only for awhile or something? I gotta look into that.
I was just thinking of reading Colour of Magic
It’s the coolest summer of the rest of your life!
Kinds feels like the BSky team have moved to trying to disrupt remorse.
