Wanted to share an exciting update... 👀
I've accepted an offer as an Associate Gameplay Engineer at Escape Velocity Entertainment!!
The studio and the people there are all incredibly passionate, I feel so lucky to work alongside them starting this April ✨️🎉
Looks like my role has been impacted. I am no longer with Blizzard.
I am heartbroken, I loved my team. If anyone is hiring associate engineers I am extremely passionate about games, feel free to reach out.
Knows I'm a tank player, but finds it funny to call me a support player on the basis I am a woman. Smirks the whole time. Has followed me on twitter for awhile, has dm'd me, definitely knows I'm a tank. Your joke isn't funny if it's harassment.

I play one day of Overwatch competitive. One (1). You know how many times someone starts flaming me with misogynistic comments? 5 times today. 5. All different men. This isn't ok.
I just can't stop thinking how happy I was doing that job.
I was genuinely so fulfilled. I made it to my dream company that I had been working towards for years, and it all got ripped away overnight.
Life's pretty cruel sometimes.
I thought this was over. I was hoping Dizian was gonna take time to work on himself, and understood why what he did was wrong.
That didn't happen. His mentality is dangerous.
It is absolutely never acceptable to send death threats to anyone. You are part of the issue if you do
World's first redesign tattoo.. AND I'M IN LOVE WITH IT SO FAR!!

They are so talented and cool 🥺💕
Still not used to calling myself a Game Dev, but I'm Bella! I'm an Incoming Associate Software Engineer on Blizzard's Unannounced Survival Game! I was lucky enough to intern with the team and found a home there ☺️
I enjoy gaming, puzzles, and tattoos 💖

Blizzard games have had a huge impact on my life, and that's why I'm so excited to announce I will be working as a Game Developer Intern there this summer!
This is truly a dream come true, and I can't wait to make you all proud! 💙

Had all my dreams come true today. Thanks to
@Soembie
@Custa
@itsmelimmy
for being so kind and chatting with me, as well as being such huge inspirations for me 💓 Can't wait to make the most out of this summer.
Almost forgot to mention... I'm back at Blizzard! I officially made the move and started last week full time as a gameplay engineer on the Unannounced Survival Game🥳
Never let anyone tell you that you can't do something 💪
silly excuse to use the fact their tank was better than me to assume im a support player. we almost won the game, you can tell in the video it was not the biggest roll in history. we all had the same deaths except for him, who had 10. i dont assume hes a tank player for that.
An unfortunate side effect of being laid off from the company that made your favorite game is that you end up avoiding that game because it makes you sad 🫠
I'm determined to get back into OW, though. Met so many wonderful people through the community. Washed Rubii incoming...
I know I might get more hate from this but I need people to understand what marginalized groups have to constantly deal with when trying to do the same things everyone else does. This is not an isolated incident.
Very sad to say today was my last day at Blizzard as an intern. I don't have enough space to type about how amazing of an experience this was, but I will greatly miss my team and everyone I've met along the way. It's not over though... I'll officially be back in 2023 as a FTE! 👀
I want to thank everyone for their support. I do want to say Dizian did apologize, but regardless of if he didn't please don't go harassing him too, it defeats the purpose of the tweet. Overwatch is for everyone, and no one should be scared to play it regardless of their identity
Why is an Xfinity Customer Support agent saying stuff like this to me when I'm literally just trying to return equipment to them? Made me mad uncomfortable😭
referencing my twitter in the video also implies you know who i am, you dm'd me previously and we even had an interaction where we were in a ranked game together, i was on tank. stop making excuses and own up to your actions.

yeah it is, it's really not that hard to be a kind person. but, digital footprint follows you, and people like this find that out the hard way.
I'm breaking down, they called and said he has a full intestinal blockage and they need to do surgery. He's still in observation for fip and stress can cause it to come back. If it comes back I have to fully retreat him which is another 10 grand. I feel so sick.. my poor baby. :(
You know what's not talked about enough? The fact that marginalized genders have to work much harder in competitive settings. Try to win games when you're scared to speak, not knowing if you're going to get harassed or if someone will throw. It drains you.
Just because you're on an alt doesn't give you the right to be extremely toxic and mean to people in comp. If you're gonna talk shit, at least do it on your main so people know you're a jerk. Honestly you never know what people have going on, kindness goes a long way.

Still can't believe I will be moving to SoCal in a couple weeks to start the job I've been dreaming of ever since I picked up my first Blizzard game in 2016 🥹
Excited to start this new chapter of my life!
Last year he was on death's doorstep and I wasn't sure he was going to make it, but today Zuko turned 3 years old and is so much healthier and happier 🥺❤️🎉
In 2023:
- Graduated with a CS degree
- Moved to CA
- Started working full-time at Blizzard
- Went to my first Blizzcon
- Went to OWL Grand Finals
Excited to see what 2024 has in store 🥳
Zuko is home early! He's got a long recovery ahead but it wouldn't be possible without you all. Thank you so much for helping my baby boy out. ❤️🩹 He's a cone kitty for awhile.
So this person has made 4 separate accounts to harass me and anyone who supports me, call people ugly, disgusting things, made an account using my face. This is a 38 year old man tagging Blizzard over and over saying I told people to hurt themselves. Please go report them.
I can't believe it's already been 1 year with the most wonderful partner I could ever ask for! Thank you for being my best friend and also my favorite main tank 💕💓 Here's to many more adventures together :)
Zuko was formally diagnosed with FIP today. I'm beyond shattered. In the past week I've gone from starting classes to being at my parents house, giving Zuko around the clock injections, force feeding, fluids.. etc. He and I are gonna fight this. Thank you all for the support. ❤️
Zuko threw up 4 times this morning. Taking him to the emergency clinic. My poor boy doesn't deserve all this, he's been to the vet more times than any cat should ever go in their life :( keep us in your thoughts.
Last night I had to take Zuko to the emergency vet. He had been sneezing for a few days, but nothing else. His eye started to get cloudy, so I took him in. 105 fever and a bacterial infection, if I waited any longer, it wouldn't have been good. Keep him in your thoughts ❤️
Call me crazy but calling yourself "The best female tank/support/dps" or whatever is stupid and defeats the purpose of saying gender doesn't factor into skill.
Been waiting to make it official, but I'm proud to announce that I am now the captain of the CU Boulder Overwatch team! Super hyped to see how the team will evolve for my time here :)!!!
Well, I didn't think I'd have to post about this again. Things seemed to be getting better with Zuko, until today. He was so lethargic and hiding, not eating or drinking. I didn't want to take a chance, so I took him back to the vet. 106 fever this time, the xrays indicated-

Today was supposed to be a super exciting day for Zuko. Unfortunately, we didn't get the news we were hoping for. As many of you know, my cat Zuko was diagnosed with FIP back in January. FIP is fatal untreated, and the treatment is not FDA approved-
