Sometimes, to relieve stress, I'll play some mobile games. Some of these mobile game ads just blow my mind in how intrusive and manipulative they are. What is happening here?!

Though I haven't paid a lot of attention to sports since @ScottiePippen played is the Golden Era of the Bulls, it was very motivating to hear his multifaceted talk at @GoTechChicago #techchicagoweek

Had a bit of human time with prolific writer and game designer @kennethhite - it's awesome to talk about the motivations and adventures one has in pursuit of their passions. As someone newer-ish to this medium, I'm appreciative to hear about Ken's origins. 💜🐙🦑 Storytime!

Being a "special guest" at the "I SUCK AT STREET FIGHTER" tournament at @MidlaneEsports was a delight! I tried to button-mash my way to esports glory- but alas, I lost horribly! I did win at being in the community & seeing amazing friends! Thanks for having me @Kelvin_J_money 💜

After 14 years in the gaming industry, this journey hasn’t been without its share of challenges. For me, this industry is so volatile, so demanding, yet relentlessly captivating. To my peers, how do you reconcile your identity within this space? Do you love it? Why do you stay?
