Happy Thanksgiving!

November 27, 2008

I hope everyone has a relaxing, enjoyable Thanksgiving and vacation following. =)
I just ate a delicious filet mignon (I don’t like turkey) and it was amazing.  Hope everyone got their filling of turkey, stuffing, cranberries, mashers, and pumpkin pie!

Cuppycake's Second Life

November 21, 2008

So, I’ve had a Second Life account since about February.  I’ve never done very much with it, I’ve logged in and teleported around the world mostly for market and product research.  I’ve never really “gotten it”.  I always just had this assumption that SL was for the bored housewives and the creepy dudes who never [...]

MMO Quicksand

November 21, 2008

I should make a habit out of posting about stuff I’m thinking more often, so that I could have said “I told you so.”
Poor WAR.  Fanbois, go ahead and defend the game here like I know you predictably will…but I’ll say “I told you so” about *you* too in a month or two.
WAR: a better [...]

CA Supreme Court Taking Up Marriage Ban

November 19, 2008

This is all I could hope for right now.
The state Supreme Court is taking up the multiple lawsuits that are challenging November 4th’s Proposition 8 that has since banned same sex couples from marrying.  Granted, they’ve just agreed to review the lawsuits, but this gives me hope. 
These lawsuits are both stating that Prop 8 [...]

Pawtopsy in WotLK

November 17, 2008

So, Wrath of the Lich King is a lot of fun.  Yes, it’s more of the same questing thing, and yes – it’s the same ol’ WoW…but it really is top notch. Pawtopsy is now halfway through 61, and we’re just finishing up the Howling Fjord quests.  Next, we’re headed to Borean Tundra to go [...]

San Diego Marches for Equality

November 15, 2008

Today’s march had over 20,000 attendees.  It wrapped its way through beautiful downtown San Diego, ending up at oceanside at the county administration center where marriage licenses are issued.  It was an amazing turnout, with only a single arrest and it was a counter-protester.  Everyone was in good spirits and cheerful though the sun was [...]

Tomorrow.

November 14, 2008

If you can drag yourself way from Lich King and littleBIGplanet, and Gears of War 2, and Fable 2, and Left4Dead or whatever else you are playing…

Tomorrow (Saturday, Nov 15) is a nationwide protest for marriage equality.  This *is* a civil rights issue, be a part of history by making an appearance.  Find out where [...]

Teh Cuppy on Gamebunny

November 14, 2008

I did an interview with David “Two Hammers” Moore at Gamebunny, and it’s now up for your viewing pleasure.  It’s mostly me being vain and talking about myself, but there is a little bit about Metaplace at the bottom.
Thanks Gamebunny!

Not going down, with or without a fight.

November 11, 2008

So…
Since Proposition 8 passed here in CA there have been dozens and dozens of large protests all across the state.
There is a nationwide protest scheduled for this Saturday in every state in our country.
Tens of thousands of people have joined Facebook groups to overturn the proposition.
Many large civil rights groups are asking the Supreme Court [...]

WotLK tomorrow night…

November 11, 2008

I’m only moderately excited for this expansion. I know it’s just the same thing for another 10 levels, but I’m excited about seeing new sights, new zones, and leveling up and doing new dungeons with all my friends on my server. It’s awesome that I have so many RL friends playing on Malfurion. [...]
