- If the United States government could just chill and stop fucking up the lives of people I love, that would be great.
- Going live with Episode 1 of Emerald City Nights our new Vampire the Masquerade Chronicle! www.twitch.tv/somattygamez
- Thinking you’re going to get an apology and remorse from the people who voted for this is like thinking your narcissistic parent is going to apologize for your childhood. These people think not apologizing or acknowledging regret is a virtue. And additionally, a form of image control.
- This past year has been a crucible. No death. But a lot of grief. Versions of myself, of “home,” of relationships shed, burned, buried.
- There are a lot of incredibly talented people on the job market right now. Many of my friends in DevRel, OSPO, program management, and engineering are looking for their next role, some have been searching for months. If you’re hiring, please consider sharing a link to your open roles below. TY ❤️
- SO stoked for tonight!!
- Clair Obscur Expedition 33. I don't know I've had a game resonate with me this loudly 5 hours in. I am already thinking about tattoos. I am already thinking about where this is gonna land in my top games of all time. Its really that fucking good.
- We are LIVE with Episode 2 of GOLEM! 🔴 Now that 'the games' are over, Mel can discuss exactly why she held them, and what is in store for the winners. See you on Twitch/Moonbeam.

- IT"S ON! Come by for all of the #Vamily goodness. We begin tonight with Preludes, at 5 pm PT 8 pm ET on the SoMattyGameZ Twitch channel. It's Vampire: The Masquerade Revised Edition set in 1996 Seattle.
- #Jaguars GM James Gladstone on Travis Hunter. "There are players who have the capacity to alter the trajectory of a team. There are very few players who have the capacity to alter the trajectory of the sport itself. Travis... has the potential to do just that."
- *Points at Cover Photo* We are gonna have a lot to talk about soon.
- Not the Pikachu face about the Civil Rights Act being next on the chopping block? This regime is doing what his cronies have been wanting to & yet, people are acting shocked?! Meanwhile Dems are just not fighting back, begging for money to”stop” the regime. Go do your jobs first.
- I know my Jewish friends are up in arms about the US Gov’s use of antisemitism as a pawn in their quest to surveil anyone entering the US. It’s depraved.

- Happy International Asexuality Day!! You rock fellow Ace Squad members!!
- Today I retire from Wizards of the Coast after 28 years. With D&D’s 50th anniversary wrapping up and the revised rulebooks doing gangbusters, this is the perfect fairytale ending for me. I can’t wait to enjoy D&D purely as a fan again, knowing the game is in good hands. See you in the Feywild!
- Sometimes in this fast-moving and complex modern world, it’s hard to know what’s right and what’s wrong. But here’s a handy rule of thumb: If you are ever on one side of an issue, and Sesame Street is on the other, YOU’RE the bad guy.
- Happy Opening Night at Home!
- YES MY BOYYYYY
- T-7 days! Just 1 week before the premiere of GOLEM. Are you getting excited?! Here's our first peak at Gerran played by @duvalkingjacob.bsky.social I wonder what kind of swashbuckling charm we'll find on Tuesday, April 8th! #pathfinder2e #starfinder2e #GOLEM
- Up from the Bottom might be new fav Linkin Park Song of this Album. Holy smokes its good. www.youtube.com/watch?v=97Mj...
- Trans Fam. I see you for the badass you are. :)
- Honestly surprised how much pop cultural depiction of mimics has, rather closely matched the progress of AI. The depiction of some predatory fleshy thing trying to emulate clothes, straight lines, or eyes and not quite being able to shake its imitative limitations.
- I cannot even properly express to you how absolutely catastrophically terrible this is gonna go.
- SCOOP: DOGE wants to rebuild SSA's codebase in months, risking benefits and system collapse, sources tell me. The plan is to migrate all systems off COBOL quickly which would likely require the use of generative AI. www.wired.com/story/doge-r...
- Today we reveal our 3rd and 4th cast members for GOLEM! Please give a warm welcome to both Mac and @smellastinka.bsky.social ! With this, our cast is revealed! If you're excited, just wait for the character reveals next week. Join us for the premiere April 8th! #golem #pathfinder2e #starfinder2e
- /8 In what meaningful way is Israel an ally of the United States, as Israel is presently led? If a country demands and encourages that secret police sweep up students from the street for writing critical op-eds, how is that country an ally and not an enemy to our basic values?
- This Avengers Doomsday Casting stuff is CRAZY!
- I don't care what side of the Israel-Palestine conflict your sympathies lie on, snatching up people with a valid student visa for the crime of writing an OpEd is naked fascism and if you don't oppose this you are a threat to this country's most basic values
- Video of the international student at Tufts being arrested by "federal authorities" in Massachusetts has been released and it's terrifying. They're not even uniformed officers. Just secret police thugs in hoodies and masks. From WCVB: youtu.be/PuFIs7OkzYY
- This is art. 🤗
- Today we announce our second cast member for GOLEM! I am so excited for you to meet him and the character he has in store for us. (I promise you're not ready!) Please give a very warm welcome to Bogie! Be sure to join us April 8th for the premiere! #golem #pathfinder2e #starfinder2e
- I thought I was done in the AP Space. Cooked. Burnt to a Crisp. But then fans of our previous show ASKED me too. Multiples. It was overwhelming in the best way. Let's tell a new story. LFG.
- Each day this week we'll be announcing one of our cast for GOLEM! Today we begin with our first reveal: You know him, You love him, Please welcome back to the stage @duvalkingjacob.bsky.social ! Join us April 8th for the premiere! #golem #pathfinder2e #starfinder2e
- The thing I heard repeatedly from Black people who embraced crypto was some form of, “This is the new economy, and we don’t want to be left out of it like we were the last one.” I’m betting that message came from the grifters.
- On today's episode of WTF is Jacob's Brain doing? We're currently processing last night's dream of being Sum 41's Bassist (I mean my consciousness HIS body!) playing a small show here in Jacksonville. 1/2
- This has been a really good week of a tough few months. Next week could be even better or absolutely fall apart. But I'm just leaning into everything that makes me who I am and even though I hate being told I'm resilient...I am and I need to continue to be. The work continues. <3.
- My lovely dogson Cooper is mad at me because he wants all the pets and the plays and I'm TRYING TO FINISH REVISING MY BOOK BUT I ALSO WANNA PET HIM CAUSE HE'S SO CUTE AAAHHHH #FirstWorldProblems
- being alive right now is so stupid
- So let's switch things up a bit here. If you're also looking for someone to do some Fractional DevRel work, or even some Internal/External Enablement work (Technical Training, Sales Enablement that sort of thing) Let's chat :)
- Jon Stewart gets it. www.youtube.com/watch?v=OeUZ...
- HotDAMN was The Elimination Chamber a really awesome show. Owens/Zayn and the Chamber Matches were incredible and that closing angle is an all-timer. #WWEChamber
- Things are coming apart quickly, so a word to white folk: you’re going to have to get used to property damage if you want to survive. Getting upset protesters set an empty Target on fire & making THAT & not police murder the focus is part of how we got here.
- Well Kamala Harris was not a secret lefty extremist and the MAGA guy won but besides that you absolutely nailed it
- A big lesson of 2024 was that extremism loses votes — and the sooner we stop pretending that Americans are secret lefties/MAGA diehards waiting to be sold on a big, bold message, the better we’ll understand what happened. For our Washington Post column: www.washingtonpost.com/opinions/202...
- This is one of the best, most cathartic, most joyful, most important days I've ever had in my life. So grateful. Lots to unpack later. <3.
- You ever look back on something your parents said as like Sage Advice and think about how absolutely crap it is? Enter my Father (who I love dearly): "There's no such thing as a Free Lunch." Well maybe there fucking should be.
- People want stories. We are drawn to the story in art. We pause and spend time with a painting until we find the joy in each brushstroke. In that moment we see the artist and storyteller like a wizard behind the curtain. That is absent in gen ai. Go be that storyteller. Go be human and create.
- Ya know I've been thinking to myself lately as folks figure out what they wanna do, leave/stay worrying about their safety either way why that never came up for me even after all the shit I've seen/experienced. Truth is I'm a Black, Queer Kid from Duval, Fighting is all I know.
- Hotdamn was that REALLY GOOD. Harrison Ford man, holy shit. #CaptainAmericaBraveNewWorld
- Goodnight, dear friends. On a day when our government continues to try to erase the existence of transgender folks, be encouraged to keep up the fight, keep up the love. Power to the people. I love you.
- Reminding you (and myself, tbh) that taking a break to preserve your energy and mental health is, and always will be, the right choice.
- Last night out with the Fam at a Mexican Restaurant for my little sister's birthday dinner and the majority of the staff spoke Spanish. So I got my drink and promptly said Thank you in Japanese for SOME FUCKING REASON then proceeded to try to drown myself in my Margarita. Anyway, Happy Wednesday.
- It’s shocking to be confronted with the reality that our entire system of checks and balances was only held together by a handful of well-intentioned public servants.
- Nobody is telling me nothing this Black History Month, you hear?
- An American flag built on the backs of Black people... Black music protesting white political terror in registers they never hear; reminiscent of ancestral spirituals embedded with instructions for runaways All this in New Orleans... What a moment
- Playing Dungeons and Dragons during the Super Bowl is definitely the far superior choice for like the 6th year in a row tbh.
- I’m opening commission slots for March!! Prices (range depends on complexity) Sketch portrait - $200-400 Rendered portrait -$400-$500 If you are interested shoot me an email! If you want something more than a portrait we can also discuss prices. Sketch example // Rendered Example
- A late night watching the Critical Role Campaign 3 Finale someone couldn't make it. He's a big snorer this one.
- Remember. It’s never: We fight for (these people) because maybe we’re more at risk if we don’t. No more Niemölling. We fight because they are coming for anyone. Every single person matters. Each and every human being’s life and safety is worth the fight.
- ALL YOUR ORGANIZING MUST GO THROUGH SIGNAL ON NON-WORK DEVICES.
- I've been doing some Consulting Work while searching for my next Role so check this blog out I wrote for @rootlyhq I cover: ✅ Why MTTR is misleading ✅ How SLOs drive better reliability ✅ How gamedays help teams stay ahead📖 Read it here: rootly.com/blog/from-mt...
- It's late on an Sunday into Monday so shoutout to my Trans peeps. I love you and I got you. <3.
- Happy #RoyalRumble to all those who celebrate!
- my outsider perspective on US politics is that it seems like i spend 4 years getting told the democrats can't do the thing because they need just one more vote, and then the republicans get in and can do whatever they want because half of the democrats vote with them
- Happy #BlackHistoryMonth y’all ✊🏾👏🏾✌🏾
- Let's fucking go AEW!!!
- Le me Friday night at 18: Let's play Video Games till 530 am! Le me Friday night at 28: Let's Drink and Party till 530 am! Le me Friday night at 38: Let's write till 530 am! Man things change eh...but Let's be honest I'm still likely to do all 3 these days.
- I made dinner with the plans to write and eat.....Its now 4 hours later and my dinner is super cold. I'm very fortunate Cooper didn't eat it, holy hyperfocus Batman. O.o
- If a cop, ANY cop, asks you how your day is going your response needs to be: I'm not discussing my day with you. They are not your friends, they do not care, they're trying to get you! Shut up!!!!!
- Been adjusting a lot of things in the new year and one of them is my Diet (or lack thereof) and man....I feel like I've been sleeping on Oatmeal. I missed you Strawberries n Cream of my childhood. <3.
- Let's say it this way: If telling the truth is DIRECTLY going to cause harm to someone who doesn't deserve it, fucking *LIE*, bitch. No sir, I didn't see the poor as hell family mother sneak away with baby formula from the grocery store. No officer, I don't know where those protesters went.
