game dev ⋆ author ⋆ mom ⋆ married to @kylehilliard.bsky.social ⋆ all my tweets are about 🤕, !😴,🧋,👩💻, 🎮, & 🐱🐶⋆ she/her
- Might fuck around and replay Shadow Hearts on the PS2 so I can write about it in an upcoming “period piece” novel.
- I’m at that “where does my autism end and trauma response begin?” part of my mental health journey.
- Not me over here making fun of the names in Death Stranding, giving @kylehilliard.bsky.social crap about it, while I’m sitting here with a name like Doctor Godbold.
- Good thing I wake up early! Got my Switch 2 and some free snacks at my door before 7 am!
- The most annoying thing about trying to preorder Switch 2 right now is I personally know web devs that work at Target and Best Buy and they are so fucking arrogant. Your shit’s broke, bros. Knock yourselves down a peg.
- They seriously can’t think that putting ~50 senior IT professionals and cybersecurity experts who work for the IRS on administrative leave is a good idea?! Can they!? The IRS. During tax season. When everyone is mad and poor. Do they know what IT does?!?!
- Literally started yelling “Fuck this show. I’ve never hated a show more than I hate this one right now,” at my tv due to the Severance Season 2 cliff hanger. Will I watch Season 3 anyway? Yes.
- Really getting fucking tired of having to turn of Apple Intelligence every two weeks (ie with every Apple Update).
- Pirate Yakuza takes too long to “get started” 😩 I’ve been over here, just waiting for it to let me love it, for 4 days 😭
- That feeling when you have to post a scrum update on Monday morning after having spent all weekend dissociating.
- This tweet response from my mom on Election Day ultimately explains why I a) went no contact with my parents last month and b) refuse to use Twitter any longer.
- I think playing Metaphor: ReFantazio while also reading/listening to The Courage to Be Disliked during the election fundamentally changed my brain chemistry. (This is an incredibly niche post that only a few people will understand.)
- I refuse to succumb to hopelessness. I cannot put my hope in my government to bring forth my ideal country. I want to take a more active role in helping people. I want to find members of my community with the same ideals as me. I want to enact the change I know our government won’t.
- I don’t know HOW yet, but I will. I won’t let slow progress stop me from moving forward. I will put my hope in myself. I will put my hope in the people I love and trust. We can still move forward together.
- Voting isn’t the only thing I can do. It wasn’t sufficient. I need to do something else and I’m going to figure out what it is.
- I’m not sure if playing Metaphor: ReFantazio was really the best way for me to try to avoid thinking about our upcoming election 😒
