Tweets for the week of 2010-10-17

  • White Men With Guns–Reconstruction Redux – Keka – Open Salon (http://j.mp/9T9pao) – Just makes me ill. #
  • There are a few stories that leave me exhilarated, yet sad the ride is over, every time I finish them. Tolkein… King… Mass Effect? #
  • You guys remember that one time when you were a kid and you ate so much beef jerky you actually became physically ill? No? Just me then? #
  • The transmedia stuff circulating today is interesting, but… I read up on Transmedial Play and think "Oh. RPGs with a big budget." #
  • I respect the Transmedia idea, but I'm unconvinced it's a thing that a corporate entity can gantt chart. At best, that's astroturf v. grass. #
  • [Blog] Transmedia: Dirty Commie Creativity – http://doycetesterman.com/index.php/2010/10/transmedia-dirty-commie-creativity/ #
  • Gay Sex vs. Straight Sex « OkTrends (http://j.mp/aQR35V) – Innnnteresting. #
  • This is a test to see if I remember how to write using Graffiti text. (Droid app.) Man I miss this. Much more comfortable than the keyboard. #
  • Messing with Vignette after @chuckwendig gave me Hipstamatic envy. http://twitpic.com/2xc24p #
  • Delaware senate debate's on CNN right now. Ouch. Joe Biden must be spinning in his grave right now. #
  • Once again, I find myself vaguely annoyed by the degree to which I've parsed my interests into multiple blogs, rather than one. #
  • Random Average: A hard lesson from Bioware http://bit.ly/a9DkHC #
  • [Random Average]: A hard lesson from Bioware http://bit.ly/cDGMek #
  • RT @drhorrible We made this video #Remains to celebrate the release of the #Dollhouse S2 DVD. http://twe.ly/5-i in reply to drhorrible #
  • RT @Linnaeus: Supers RPGs and Comic Book RPGs http://bit.ly/cTdB08 – Possibly the best replacement for 'trad' and 'indie' game lables, IMO. #
  • This is How I Get It Done: Making a quick ebook with Jutoh (http://j.mp/cfM7r6) – . #
  • RT @rdonoghue: Project management, railroading, and some RPG heresy. http://j.mp/czZBEa — Rob takes my offhand comment and makes gold. #
  • "Take Me Out" by Atomic Tom, performed live with iPhones on NYC subway (http://j.mp/cApdEh) – This is, simply, amazing. #
  • Random Average: “Is is a ’supers or ‘comics’ game?” http://bit.ly/avjpb6 #
  • Dear nine-year-oid with the brassy red dyejob and black nails, reading seventeen: you make me kind of sad. #
  • Know what else makes me sad? "Your flight has been delayed 2 hours." #
  • A collection of links on sexism in gaming: http://wundergeek.blogspot.com/2010/10/sexism-in-gaming-list-of-links.html – today's reading. #
  • 'I am grateful an indifferent universe conspired to give me life.' (RT @curiouskate09) #
  • I note my spot in The Black Company with a pink-and-glitter bookmark my daughter made. I like how my life has turned out. #
  • I am at another wedding, Twitter. You know what that means #
  • The first worrisome sign: the wedding party have been given barstools to sit at for the duration of the ceremony. #howlongwillthisrun #
  • Oh good: there's a short in the priest's mic. #snapcracklepop #
  • Not to tell the priest his job, but I think it's 'bedrock' of a relationship, not 'rockbed'. #
  • GAH! Lightning struck the church. Oh, no: just the mic. #
  • And now comes… The… Mixing of a Nice Viniaagrette? I really don't get some of hese customs. #
  • The salad dressing appears to be a Catholic thing. Involves oil, wine. The priest keeps looking up at the ceiling like he forgot the recipe. #
  • And the ceremony ends with a traditional Irish blessing – the only time the mic didn't crackle. #appropriate #
  • RT @Ihnatko: RIP Benoit Mandelbrot. Thank God he wasn't murdered. It would have taken the cops forever to draw the chalk outline. #
  • Why YES, I *am* taking advantage of @daphneun's unwilling Designated Driver status. (Later, she gets a footrub.) #pregnancybenefits #
  • The reception is at the family's home. Which means their puppy is here. IN A BOW TIE. http://twitpic.com/2y6owd #
  • People, I don't want to overshare, I was just in the nicest portapotty I have ever seen. Seriously: I should provide photos. #
  • For all I make fun, I want to say: Hooray for weddings. Hooray for love, and its celebration. Faith? Orientation? Pheh. Hooray for Love. #
