My Summer Looks A Lot Like Ruby
I never had a summer break as a kid, the whole concept of taking like 2-3 months off and just doing whatever you wanted was never something I grasped until I was an adult. We had “winter break” which basically meant we were too busy for school because we were doing “outreach” and cleaning. Fun…

#KieryPlaysDestiny
So I’ve been playing Destiny, and it’s not usually my kind of game. It’s FPS for one thing and Multiplayer for another, and I usually like soloing and not playing with people – so when the only way to level is to raid with 5 other people……it can make for a frustrated Kiery. However, in…

RubyArt
So, I talked a little about this comic project I want to make. Originally I thought I was going to build the entire back-end from scratch like I did with E.R.A. but after falling down a google rabbit hole I found Refinery CMS, which is a Ruby on Rails CMS where you can add extensions…

GamerGate Part 2
They Doxxed Felicia. I made a video and disabled comments but screenshotted all the responses I’ve recived. I locked down everything I could because I was afraid of being doxxed and while the responses I’ve gotten could still be classified as polite in comparision to what I’ve gotten on twitter, at the core, it’s condescending…

The Sims 4

So first of all, the sims themselves and the graphics are dramatically improved and I’m not even running at the highest settings. Overall, I’m really happy with it – I can tell EA put a…

Summer Games
KieryGeek has been on break, I’ve been playing a bunch of games and making liberal use of my PlayStation Plus subscription. I started with Trine 2 and I’m stuck on this one level where I’m trying to get through this witch’s lair and there’s a gap I can’t jump across… So, then I discovered PixelJunk(tm)…

On Youtube
dick move to indie artists, even taking away their content if they fail to sign on to the new thing. My love of indie music aside, this whole thing really angers and frustrates me as a youtuber. I know my content at the moment isn’t and won’t be affected with this decision at all or…

Knack & Trine 2
Knack this week! I really loved the game and will likely be talking more about it in the future. The world is so pretty to look at and fun to be in – I managed to archive some of the gameplay to twitch so you can see for yourself. So now that I’ve finished that…

This Week in Art & Life (But Mostly Pictures)
Last weekend Alex and I went to New York to see some comedy shows as an early anniversary thing and it was awesome. We saw The Thrilling Adventure Hour and Comedy Bang! Bang! and went to a movie and checked out central park and generally had an awesome weekend. Then we drove all night Sunday…
