Canada and the USA have been hiding the genocide of thousands of Indigenous children from the residential and boarding school system via mass burial sites.
My engagement ring has been missing for over a month. I've turned my house upside down looking for it and was convinced I'd never see it again. My dog just came up to me holding it in his mouth?!!

๐งต Hello. Iโm coming out of private for a bit to talk to folks whoโve come forward about abuse. I want to offer some insight on my experiences and my healing. Iโm not a mental health expert, just a person whoโs been through some stuff, so YMMV.

The line that truly got me referenced potentially coming home to find their partner โtotteringโ around in heels + a dress with โclownishโ blush on their cheeks. You can feel the seething hate in those words, reducing expression/experimentation to something childish. Vile.

we can discuss the politics of celebrating a genre that's meant to be comforting, in some way, and we can discuss the promotion of that celebration, without being an asshole and single-handedly insulting small and single-person teams trying to make something beautiful

This week has been so hard, with yesterday being my worst day. Apologies for things being slow on my end, trying my best to catch up. I have received an unimaginable volume of support and I can't thank you enough. You are the light that is helping me survive right now.

Hi. My heart is in pieces for all the people in this industry who are bullied, abused, and harassed at the hands of men and incompetent leadership. If you need an ear, please dm me anytime.

I was terrified to tell my story, and I am still afraid. But after I posted I received some really horrifying messages from someone who suffered far worse than me. I cannot tell their story, but this made me realize that sharing my account was needed.

Hi! Iโm Albertine, a narrative & game designer based in Canada. I recently worked on
@MoonglowBay
and am available for work.
If youโre into rich characterization, curious spaces, and thoughtful cinematic direction, letโs talk!
Resume and past work:
it's rad as fuck watching press outlets cease coverage on blizzard, activision, and ubisoft titles in protest of the way they treat women.
talk about putting your money where your mouth is. love and solidarity to all taking a stand.

As I get older, itโs getting really tiresome to try and talk about things Iโm interested in or passionate about and subsequently being responded to by the other person with an assumption that I donโt know what Iโm talking about and/or ought to have things explained to me.

Spent my entire career learning and working in Unity. I feel so lost. Guess Iโm diving head first into embracing Unreal. Unity will almost inevitably walk all or part of this back, but how can any indie trust them anymore?

Frozen shrimp rings with the little container of cocktail sauce in the middle. My mom would bring one out (along with Pot of Gold chocolates) exactly ONCE per year: On New Yearโs Eve. I still feel overly indulgent buying them and Iโm 29.

Appreciate the immense depth and sensitivity of your work in this piece. I watched this with my heart in my throat the whole time. It was painful, but cathartic..and it gave me a lot of hope. From the bottom of my heart, thank you, for this deeply important work.

the increasing populairty of wholesome games has done a lot of good, IMO, in welcoming people who previously felt unwelcome in game dev, in creating accessible development tools, and in helping people actually find games that resonate with them
that's not nothing, to me anyway.

For those of you who have followed my posts about my neighbour Liz (Erzsรฉbet/Elizabeth) over the years, I must unfortunately share that she passed away on Saturday due to COVID-19. We are devastated but find comfort in knowing she is no longer in pain.

Canโt tell if Iโm losing followers from tweeting about Black Lives Matter, protesting, defunding and abolishing the police, learning how to get paid what you deserve in game dev via wage transparency, or about how transphobes are horrible but Iโm glad theyโre gone ๐ฅณ

I find the whole "normalize neurodivergent people sharing their own stories that relate to the one you told because that's how they relate to you" thing super...weird? if someone brings up something to relates to me, I don't think they're trying to "overshadow" my story?

I think it's absurdly easy to suggest that anything cute or light-hearted is frivolous - men have been doing that about anything women like since forever
soft/sweet/cute/gentle โ unimportant, undeserving of attention, devoid of deeper meaning, inherently insidious

Yesterday was an interesting day. Got to speak to a classroom of teen girls from all over the city about my career & how the game industry has plenty of room (and need for) soft skills. We brainstormed and practiced showing how these skills apply to games.

That teen girls aren't moody just because of hormones or because they somehow thrive on drama. They often deal with enormous family and social pressures with little to no support and struggle under the weight of it, causing them to act out or be harsh/moody.

no one cares about COVID anymore and it makes me feel like Iโm living in a completely different universe. no consideration for the untold numbers of people they will infect, disable, and kill with their desire for ease and comfort and fun. no remorse or shame.
