I am a games writer. Sounds cool, but sometimes I get stuck for a Pac-Man metaphor and it's really hard. (She/her.)

If games journalism actually paid a living wage, you'd see more older adults in the field. There would be veterans. There would be mentors. Instead, everyone disappears when they hit their mid-30's. It's some real Children of the Corn jazz.

Kirby also did some important work during the Civil Rights movement that helped form the Voting Rights Act of 1965. While there's no confirmation THE Kirby was named after him (though signs point to "yes"), he deserves to share a moniker with the Perfect Pink Borb.

@elivalley "A Christians' Guide to Seder" Oh cool, she'll be able to lecture Jews on how we celebrate Passover incorrectly, which is what one Christian co-worker told my mother.

When you’re hired at a “low skill” job, you’re immediately expected to take two or three additional jobs that you are not paid for. Reception work. Cleaning. Inventory. Balancing tills. Work retail or service for a week, then tell me it’s a job for idiots.
