I love games and so many of the people who make them. It was an honor to accept the award on behalf of the team and a privilege to be able to speak to what I believe in. ♥️
In 2019, I created #WhatAGameDevLooksLike after I was stopped by security 3(!!) times while picking up my speaker badge. I’m a small Asian woman with pink hair, and I guess I didn’t visually meet their expectations of a speaker.
Ironically, I was at GDC to speak about inclusive studio cultures. 🫠
Bro hell yeah. I secretly really want to start collecting records.
For those of you who'll be attending GDC this year; I'm excited to be speaking on a panel about Dialogue Design on Thursday afternoon! Come say hi if you spot me!

The amount of important things about games, industry, and life that I've learned from Brenda, following her career and work and advocacy and activism and mentorship and involvements from afar - but also the times we've crossed paths for work, is staggering.

Excellent!
I'm sorry I missed this one. Will a recording be available for me to watch?
Ramadan Mubarak! ✨🌙
Today is the first day of Ramadan, the first day of Adar, Lunar New Year and Mardi Gras.
This means that for one reason or another, the majority of humans on the planet have a reason to eat fried food, and that is beautiful.
I've never seen this before. It looks dope as hell and I want one.
I need someone to draw Dracula playing an organ built with blood and guts and internal organs STAT!
The layoffs across games and games journalism have been disproportionately affecting the women in the industry, and even more so, black women.

Over 1,000 Ubisoft workers around the world have walked off the job.
In response to a return-to-office mandate, layoffs, and the cancellation of several games, workers launched a three-day strike.
The workers walked out in response to five French unions issuing the strike call.
HOLY SHIT this trailer is amazing.
1) Mark of the Ninja vibes
2) Afrofuturism
3) Anti-colonial hijinks
Let's fucking go!
Sounds like some superhero shit. Just turn it into a kickass poster!
Been a while since I've seen a Kailani fit check! Nice to see you again!
A recent game that did this is Ghost of Yotei, as you progress to different areas of the open world you get to see different seasons represented in the environment.
See you there! @geekyfriedrice.bsky.social @awintory.bsky.social

Happy Black History Month! Here's my list of assorted Black History facts that I find myself thinking about all the time.
I'm thinking about creating a new daily thread this year with powerful quotes from Black leaders and innovators. We'll see if I have the energy.

Shout out to all the amazing Black game developers, media, and creatives across every part of making games. I’m rooting for y’all year-round.
Go follow Black folks making games. We’re often ignored, then imitated. Tag some Black devs below and follow the ones you don’t know yet.

There's still work needed, including QC checks and edits. But pulling from the script seems like the best way to avoid horrible mistakes like these.
