@jmoiron @richardstartin @asatarin I have ex-datadog in some of my profiles. I was a big part of that company, and it's a big part of me.

@jmoiron.bsky.social Don't allow a group that happily says things like "feminazi" to tone-police "toxic masculinity."
@jmoiron @justinjaffray @arntzenius TLOZ is fascinatingly non-linear in a way that none of the other ones are. Dragon Quest 1 is kinda similar. They tightened the gating design afterwards; they must have been very perceptive to players desires/frustrations.
