Links! 18/01/2014
Hey, it’s four in the morning and I can’t sleep, so here are some links! I’m currently reading “Debt: The First 5000 Years” by David Graeber, and it’s gone from highly interesting to immensely frustrating. This review over at The Charnel-House is the best I’ve found so far, though I …
Washington Bullets
Was listening to this today.
The Bravery of Being out of Range
Ah, good old Roger Waters. The imagery at the beginning may no longer apply to the current Leader of the Free World, but the rest? This still says everything: Just love those laser-guided bombs They’re really great For righting wrongs You hit the target And win the game From bars …

So Much To Say
There’s a lot to say – about Greenlight, future projects, privilege in the games industry… all kinds of things, really. And I’ll start writing about all that tomorrow. (There’s also an episode of The Starving Artists’ Kitchen that is ready, but which I realized at the last moment contains a …
