pretty sure i helped someone at the library make a children's birthday party flyer with this font

it's wild how many indie game releases are just... not being reviewed at all anymore

curious about Megadoc but also concerned about what further exposure to Megalopolis footage will do to my brain

its release went pretty under the radar, but One-Eyed Likho has great atmosphere. black and white, based on Russian folklore.

You should also consider supporting @skyboxcritics.com, just saying. Help us pay our writers (a very diverse group from all over the world) write cool things about games/TV/film and so on.

the only one that matters is that i'm cited on Willem Dafoe's page talking about the Green Goblin

Meant to share this link to help Gretchen and the lost revenue from losing her book.

waiting for the first flight I've been on since... before the pandemic??

somebody needs to take responsibility for getting me into Shiren the Wanderer

Pulled awkwardly in so many directions, Macon Blair's remake of THE TOXIC AVENGER all but comes apart at the seams. Read @midfalutin.bsky.social's review.

lol

i remember tending to skip the part in Godzilla 1985 / Return of Godzilla where everyone on that fishing boat gets killed by a mutant sea louse lol

the people who put filmographies on separate Wikipedia pages are just out there living their lives, oblivious to the pain that follows in their wake

despelote is on sale as part of the @panic.com publisher sale. our biggest sale yet, 35% off! that's less than $10! go kick those balls / bottles / DVD boxes now! store.steampowered.com/app/2367820/...

this is the most I have used the word "nutsack" in a piece of professional writing

kinda feel bad for the guy playing Smoker if he's gotta walk around with two cigars like that the whole time

finally watched In the Mood for Love yesterday in a theater, still recovering emotionally. may never recover emotionally??

Grand Theft Hamlet should've just committed to being a fictionalized reenactment tbh

the urge to make an author website look as unprofessional as possible

what if there was a man, and he was working

this happened to one of mine from 2024, but everything before that seems fine?

glass houses and all making fun of Square Enix names when everyone else titles their games BORNFALL or TWILIGHT ESCAPE or SONG OF REVELATION

staff writer 🫠

i just think it would be neat to know video game release dates more than like two weeks in advance, that's all

being the most careful driver you've ever seen after watching Sorcerer

never a good sign when the power goes out while you're in the middle of cooking

obligated to share any mentions of Cat Soup
