As a woman who works on TFT, I’ve spent tonight reading things about my own community that make me want to put my fist through a wall.

Let’s be clear about what happened here. Women said they were hurt…and the response from parts of this community was to laugh, to relitigate, to demand receipts, to treat “was she uncomfortable” as an interesting debate topic. It isn’t and never was.

Women build this game. Women play this game, millions of them. Millions. And the message being sent today is that you’re welcome here right up until the moment you say something happened to you.

To the men reading this: your silence is a position. It is not neutral. It has never been neutral. Every time you let it slide in a lobby, in a Discord, in a group chat, in a reply…you encourage this behavior. It cannot keep being women’s full-time job to explain why they’d like to not be harassed.

To Emily and to every woman who spoke up and got buried for it: I see you. You told the truth even when it was hard and people were absolutely horrible. Thank you for all your courage in speaking up.

If anyone is ever at an event and something feels off, find me. Find any of us. You are not overreacting, you are not being dramatic. You have people in your corner.

Congrats on Huanmie.Huanmie asked me to put his statement on X : "Jedusor played very well in this tournament, but typing in chat on CN player wont grief another CN player just because Tianlong didn't sell his Primordian 2-2 to grief Lishao's anima commander is unprofessional."

My time at Riot and on TFT as a Game Designer has come to an end. Just under 10 years, and to be honest I thought it was going to be longer, but sometimes things change.
-------------------------------------------------
I’m so grateful for what I was able to be a small part of, and able to accomplish in the last decade. It’s been a dream career, and I have got to do so much thanks to Riot. Even trying to list it all feels insane what I managed to do in this time. And the crazy 7 years on TFT where I got to design, balance, teach, lead, and more for my job, but then also build a community, stream, cast, go to events…it’s just been amazing. Ending on stuff like the Unlock system and a couple other things…I’m heading out proud.

To everyone I worked with over the years, thank you for letting me be a part of everything we accomplished. I hope I managed to teach you something or bring you joy in some way. I genuinely hope our paths cross again in the future.

To everyone who supported TFT or me over the years, you have no idea what it means to me. I cherish all the moments over the years, and they’ll keep me going. I am so blessed to have been a part of your lives and thank you for letting me bring some fun into your world.
-----------------------------------------------------
So…what’s next for me? I’m trying to figure that out.
First off, since I was on sabbatical and am terrible at relaxing/not working, I have been making my own small indie game. I’m about 2 months into development and have already had folks playtesting some early builds. I’d say the game is like 20-30% done, but my goal is to release it as a full game. It’s been fun keeping my skills sharp in a different space, and I hope to share it with you all someday.

Beyond that, I’m keeping my eyes open for other opportunities. I’ve had a few conversations here and there already during my Sabbatical. It’s a brutal industry right now, so I’m taking one day at a time and figuring out what’s next for me, whether it’s working on another studio’s game or even my own thing.

And I’d love to find a space to do some content creation and be able to share my knowledge of game development. But that may take some time to figure out how to do it right.
-------------------------------------------------------Again, thank you for everything these last 10 years. It’s a big change and I’m nervous but hoping it all works out. Until next time, take it easy!

⚠️The Egyptian Relief Committee in Gaza had been organizing public screenings of World Cup matches for displaced families across the Strip. About an hour before today’s Egypt-Argentina match, Israel killed the committee’s public relations director in a strike on his vehicle. Two others, including a child, were also killed.

Finally we have Schrödinger's Slop

If you look at the code, it’s Slop

If you don’t look, it’s a software factory

[Pop Base @PopBase]

Palestinian goalkeeper Salim Al-Ashqar has been killed by Israeli forces in Gaza.

He leaves behind his wife of 5 months who is expecting their first child.

No matter what happens, it's your job to keep on living. You've still got things to do.

[Saltsby @saltsbee]

Clear communication here: robin open stage 2-1 with 'tonight or tomorrow' -> toby confirms that tonight is on with the direct pilates 3-2 augment pick into midgame costco tempo -> robin acknowledges with 4-2 fireball request -> ggs

[Katie @katieguo]

I’m in awe of how men communicate. They ask questions but don’t answer the other person at all 🤨

[Bepo @BepoCarrot]

Hey Austin @milkteaboards can you please give me a picture update of my keyboard or give me a full refund at this point. It’s been 7 months and your communication is below my expectations.

These tournaments potentially being funded by incomplete commissions is concerning.

@esportslaw @RiotSherman Please

[Clement Chu @ClementKChu]

Riot did a great job in crafting a measured ruling, it properly disincentivizes people from taking technical pauses and still recognized the players skill.

...the player response made me laugh so hard I woke my wife at 2AM, Riot ain't taking a week to punish him next time🤣

[Saltsby @saltsbee]
