All this time and I didn't realize "felted" was a reference to poker table felt. I unironically thought it was a reference to craft felting where you card wool, wet it, and then stab it with needles under pressure.

Like I thought someone had heard their grandma say that, repeated it, and everyone just went along with it to be cool.

God what is wrong with me.

"bipartisan"

"YOUR UNIPARTY OVERLORDS HAVE DECIDED YOU MUST HAVE AN ID AND BIOMETRIC ANAL PRINT ON FILE TO LOOK AT SPICY MEMES AND TITTAYS, AND, WELL.... PRETTY MUCH EVERYTHING YOU DO!
YOU MUST PRESENT YOUR PAPERS, TOVARISH! WE CANNOT ALLOW CRIMINAL SUBVERSIVES TO DAMAGE OUR GLORIOUS PROGRESSIVE WORKERS PARADISE!*"

*Except silly, nonconsequential things like voting or illegally crossing international borders while brown. NO PAPERS NEEDED, COMRADE! WE CAN'T HAVE A WORKERS PARADISE WITHOUT THE WORKERS, AFTER ALL! NOW, CLEAN MY TOILET, MARTA! OH, YEAH, AND WELCOME TO AMERICA!

sorry for the ALLCAPS, lets just call it an artistic decision.
 
TBH the kiwi doom mapping project getting ignored for 8 months despite all the work and polish that went into it really drove home to me that null doesn't give a crap about the gaming board

It was released mid april?? How is that 8 months?

Besides, the entitlement is completely misplaced. I made a map for that pack, and no one owes me anything on that accord. Not null, nor anyone else.

Having relistened to Only by Nine Inch Nails I can confirm that is does, indeed, slap.

Just kidding, that would be GAY.
The 'only' good Reznor song is a Saul Williams song, which happens to be the 'only' good Saul Williams song.
 
Trust them? Assume they have the worst intentions. Go anyway prepared for bullshit. It's a unique opportunity that doesn't happen often. Cowardice is how you never progress.
Is Wired the type of publication to make it look like Jersh thinks Coolsville sucks or are they a little more reputable than that?
They will 100% character assassinate you if it's what they're intending to do. If they're reaching out to interview you they probably already have a story and narrative that they've already got and the interview is an opportunity to quote you out of context and dunk on you a la Gawker. It made me recall a hitpiece that they did on Brandon Sanderson (a popular fiction writer who has the biggest Kickstarter campaign ever raised), the Wired author who went to profile him lambasted him for thousands of words for being a boring, hard-working, family-oriented guy out of what I can only assume was spite. Still might be able to leverage it for exposure or something, but it's more likely than not they're looking to provide unflattering coverage.
 
I would advise you not to talk to Wired.
Nobody even fucking reads that shit anymore so what is the point.
Most likely they will smear you, and even if they don't, there is literally no upside.
It's basically "should i talk to gawker?" no, you should not.
Going on Ralphs stream probably gets more views than fucking Wired.
Agreed anything you say will be twisted and used against you.
Even if you send them pictures of just news hamsters.

I wonder if KF actually has more reach and relevance at this point than wired...I tried looking it up and according to this (wikipedia has a source it's citing but it looks like a dead link) wired had a circulation of 500,000 in 2023.
