As some of you already know, I just got back from a two-week trip to London! I had an incredible time, met incredible people, saw some incredible shows, MET DENISE, was FRONT ROW for the Eras Tour, and generally had the time of my fucking life. @hegodamask, @lighttailoring, and @karnpuffs, you guys are ridiculously cool. I’m so happy and lucky to have met you all in person; we’ll all have to hang out again next time Kyle or Denise is on stage!

Anyway, I of course brought my emotional support Dedra keychain with me, so she got to see London, too. Here are some highlights from her travels, and mine. 🥰

1. At the National Gallery

2. At Hyde Park

3. Seeing Hadestown (she felt the Underworld could’ve been more efficiently run)

4. Eating gelato after Hadestown

5. Going through the Taylor Swift exhibit at the Victoria & Albert Museum (Dedra didn’t understand what all the fuss was about a cardigan)

6. Eating some really damn good pizza

7. On the London Eye

8. At Twinings Tea Shoppe

10. At the Eras Tour! (Dedra still doesn’t understand what all the fuss is about)

Sainte-Adresse

The oldest known name of the commune was "Caput Caleti" mentioned in 1240. Later known as Saint-Denis-Chef-de-Caux, named after an ancient place of worship and its position on the cape. In 1415, Henry V landed with his fleet, to claim the throne of France.

Starting in 1905, Georges Dufayel, a Parisian businessman, created a residential seaside resort known as Nice havrais (the "Nice of Le Havre"), at Sainte Adresse. The local architect Ernest Daniel directed operations. The Avenue de Regatta on the waterfront is designed in the image of the promenade des Anglais in Nice.

During World War I, Sainte-Adresse was the administrative capital of Belgium. The Belgian government in exile was installed from October 1914 to November 1918 in the Dufayel building, named after the businessman who had built it in 1911. It had at its disposal a post office using Belgian postage stamps.

During World War II, the Germans built several fortifications here for the Atlantic Wall, to defend the port of Le Havre.

Out of the country for two weeks. Industry Wisdom in the meantime

I’m going to be out of the country for two weeks doing stuff. Fear not, however! I’ve compiled some industry wisdom from various people in the video game industry that will come out on a daily basis while I’m gone. I asked three questions of the game devs out there and I got a lot of great responses. The questions are:

"What thing do you wish gamers knew about what you do?"

"What thing do you wish you could change about our industry?"

"What is your favorite thing about our industry?"

Look forward to the responses I got. Cheers.
