Hello there! My name is Thrazen2112, and I'm a Twitch streamer. I play a variety of games, from single player, co-op, to online PvP with friends. Join the fun!
Red Dead Redemption, ed. @EstherWrigh_ and @drjonw. I've spoken a little about this book before, but it deserves more attention and praise. The essays are like light hitting the prism of the game, detailing its various aspects beautifully.
It's a small thing, but I'm really sad to see this – Joe's such a lovely human, and he manages to keep DbD *fun* even though it's become such a sweat-fest. At the end of the day, smaller CCs are more important than big, because they foster actual human connection and community.
Added to a footnote in this piece, because I think the incident described in the letter Nicholas Timmins carries is based on an actual historical incident. Also added a change log (linked on the About page) for updates like this.

An attempt to untangle the knot of loathing and longing at the center of RDR2. Part I of my look at the game's treatment of gender: masculinity and homophobia. Plus, some bonkers unhinged dialog.

You may have noticed Red Dead Redemption 2 inverts the usual white hat/black hat trope found in Westerns. Here’s why! (Surprise! It’s an allusion) #rdr2

Hi friends!
I’m beeky - a 30+ LGBTQIA+ content creator, community theatre fangirl and goofy girl.
I recently received a life changing surgery and am diving headfirst into making my life everything I’ve dreamed it could be, after being sick for most of my life.

A little secret about @TheDangelo's "Unshaken": The lyrics are inspired by a passage from John Milton's Paradise Regained. Read all about it here: Stand Unshaken: The Inspiration Behind RDR2’s Mournful Prayer #RDR2 - https://t.co/8Oj3IW0V3m
What has been lost, who lost it, and what Red Dead Redemption 2 mourns the most. Highly recommend the quoted article by @EstherWrigh_ and the book by @mattmargini (from @BossFightBooks ).

This book by @EstherWrigh_ is excellent. Highly perceptive and deeply insightful. And frankly, it’s a breath of fresh air to read someone who sees Rockstar so clearly, given how adulating their following tends to be.
New! I end Dutch’s whole career, an archangel talks about farting, and how (and why) Dutch abuses Arthur. Also, a really cool screenshot I got of a bird. https://t.co/avgFulgNoE
Finally talking about someone we like! Making sense of the fact that Arthur is a Christ figure, RDR2 as an apocalypse narrative, and the first of Arthur's doubles. (Bonus fact: yes, "Red Right Hand" is from Paradise Lost) #rdr2
