About Me:
Before you ask, my name is pronounced "Rainy Baker". I write for a few different sites (Looper, Grunge, Transadvocate, Bunny Ears) these days, and perform music under the name Destroyed For Comfort. I created the video games Never Go To Work and Death Sword, which got good reviews on tech blog Boing Boing and was declared "Most Innovative" by Intel Buzz respectively. Maybe you've heard of me.

Now tell me more about you. I'm boring.

I have an infrequently updated website at http://destroyedforcomfort.com/
and also post articles to Medium here https://medium.com/@ranibaker
