I was hanging out with a buddy who also has ADHD and when I made a joke about taking legally prescribed speed every morning they said they don't need anything like that to function. While drinking their third Red Bull of the day.

People say you can't choose one Bluesky account to be the best but Good Trailcams exists

ER just dropped a long one-shot where a team runs a stretcher up the stairs, outside, where a REAL HELICOPTER LANDS, they rush the helicopter, take the patient out, and rush away as the helicopter takes off behind them. Broadcast TV used to be buck wild. That was INSANE

People are reacting to news of a Firefly revival like they'd react to a new Everclear album. Neat, I remember them. I'm good, thank you.

Fun fact: The pilot for ER was adapted from Michael Crichton's book Five Patients. Crichton gave us ER, the Jurassic Park franchise (which is still bringing in bank), and Westworld (which was the height of prestige once, believe it or not). Just an incredibly influential writer.

I'm on episode three of the first season of ER. They've figured out the lighting, and holy hell this is a beautiful TV show. Like, they're just out here casually shooting on film with a dramatic, expressive color palette. This is great!

This is an absolutely incredible way to find out they're making a Slay the Spire 2

In much, much lighter news, that episode of Jujutsu Kaisen melted my face. Holy shit!

It's all bad news! To put it in incredibly crass terms, they are the Ewoks, and we are the Storm Troopers in this equation

Imagine if someone bet god that he couldn't create an area that you can't pour enough money or people into to take over, because someone made that bet and that night god got super high and designed Iran.

People who have never looked at a map are baffled at how confident Iran is about waging a ground war against the US.

Not following gaming news as closely is really freeing. Now I have to wait until the team is laid off to find out that a game is a huge hit.

Is anyone else randomly saying BOOTS throughout their day? I'm just going about my business like normal and sometimes BOOTS it just happens.

The takeaway from the success of Iron Lung isn't to fund YouTubers making sci-fi movies about games. The secret is that Markiplier is a creative person who made something that excited him. This is also the secret sauce behind Sinners. There is no repeatable trend. Fund creative people. The end

This is wildly unethical misinformation. The fossil record offers no indication of which dinosaurs did or didn't have gonorrhea.

People are asking me if I love the actor or the character and I couldn't be clearer. I love him. I hope this helps.

I'm trying so hard not to do politics today, but this is pretty big. Trump caving to pressure is going to make everyone feel vulnerable, and that's when people make mistakes. So, you know. Good.

The actor who plays Egg posted an Instagram story about dressing up as himself for world book day and I love him.

I was once in a major motion picture with both Darth Vader and Jesus Christ.

YES

The McDonald's CEO comes off like a less masculine Jared Kushner.

Everyone is sick in the house. Don't dead. Open inside.

I'm watching the first episode of ER and this is the darkest hospital I've ever seen. Why are none of these scenes lit, it's kind of wild. Also Noah Wylie is a literal baby. I was not prepared.

One Battle After Another vs. Sinners for best picture is a meaningless but absolutely thrilling race. I do not care who wins, we haven't had a full on brawl between two movies this excellent in decades. I saw 'em both on the big screen and they both felt religious that first time. Great year.

I've found out that some people online refer to The Amazing Spider-Man as "ta-zuhm" and I couldn't be less happy with this news. It hits my mind with the sour feeling of people who say "SNES" as a one-syllable word. Why are people so wrong. Why.

One of my older kids is discovering the joy of the latest Wolfenstein series and I couldn't be happier. I wanted to offer him some links filled with overwrought writing about those games back when Polygon was a website, but it's a lot more fun to let him think through his own thoughts.

Putting on a record and playing Power Wash Simulator 2 with the kids is one of life's greatest pleasures. Tonight we listened to Chvrches' Every Open Eye while power washing a climbing park.

Remember if your kids get sick they're just going to die, we need a billion dollars a day to kill someone else's kids. Your sacrifice is a noble one.

In honor of Mike Fahey, I have decided to blog about snacks and beverages for @aftermath.site aftermath.site/apple-red-bu...

When you had to cancel your GDC talk but it reads like you cancelled every indie funding opportunity instead. Lollll fuck 😬😬😬😬😬😅😅😂😂

I'm not a political commentator but it would be a refreshing change for the Democratic party to stop asking people to vote for Nazis. I mean, the Democrats are all about funding Ice and genocide and the (new!) war in Iran, but you'd think they could at least be against Nazis. And yet!

Remember, you don't always have to comment

The pharmacy has been out of one of my kid's meds for about ten days now. You'll never guess what kind of medication it is.

Dudes rule (inclusive)

You love to see it

Cancer: Now With the Sweet Taste of MRSA

I saw a short that featured Rob Liefeld and someone in the comments asked who Rob Liefeld is and the most upvoted response was "someone who knows everything about comics except how to draw them" and holy shit.

In zombie fiction people always attack each other and then the government swoops in and saves everyone but in reality when shit goes down in my experience people always help each other and the government swoops in and makes it worse

Liz Phair is being disrespected by her place in this lineup

Journalism request! 🌟 I'm writing a story about the VR industry in 2026, and I'm looking to speak with people at GDC who've been in it over the past decade and can speak to where it was and what it's like now. If that's you, DM me here!

I remember getting excited for new Xbox Live Arcade games on Wednesdays and now I just hope the AI ghoul Microsoft installed at the division lets at least a few people keep their jobs. It's hard for people these days to imagine, but Xbox was once a popular gaming brand! It was a big deal!

Younger kids are posting challenges like "could you drink 100 beers in a month for two million dollars" and it's wild to see how quickly drinking culture is receding. I will not be sharing how long it would have taken me to drink 100 beers in college. I'm not bragging.

It's kind of weird that young Americans aren't interested in religion when their whole life religion has told them war is great, being yourself is against the rules, and you have to hate the right people. It's not a compelling message.

Twitch and Honda celebrating Woman's Day by telling them to get in the kitchen was a choice.

The regime we like is using weapons we paid for to attack the regime we don't like, who is defending themselves using weapons we paid the last time we overthrew their leaders, but another country we're shaky with said they'll use weapons we paid for to attack us, but luckily allies have weapons we p

So the CEO of McDonalds is doing short form video content and it looks like the whitest, richest guy you have ever seen before forced to eat McDonalds and it's hilarious. You can see the panic in his eyes when it really sinks in that he has to take a bite. It's art.

Is it worth going back and watching ER? I enjoy shows where smart people help other people feel better and I'm all out of the Pitt. Which for legal reasons I will note has nothing to do with ER

The Internet is completely obsessed with the same eight seconds of an Alyssa Liu routine. No one is upset by this.

Happy 37th Birthday to Fujitsu's FM Towns, a computer that pushed the limits of what was possible in 1989. These are the two that I've restored - the UX Towns II in 2020, and the HG Tower in 2023, both for NEON Retrofest. 💿 #retrogaming

"Israel is a cool partner because they kill everyone" is a hell of a thing to say proudly and in public.
