#THETENX5 #22 THE UNCLUDED - Teleprompters (2013) Should have posted this one yesterday for the Legend of Zelda anniversary ("Learned heartbreak on a Zelda 1 sub screen"). You should listen to this one. Maybe you don't need it now, but I think one day you might.

@thevideogamelibrary.org I sent you an email about this around when it released but I suspect it just got completely lost. Not sure if there's a big backlog but I wanted to see if I could get my book included in your database. Thanks!

There's no perfect way to visualize income inequality, but one approach is just to subtract the income of the bottom 50% from the income of the top 1%. By that measure, we're now at a level of inequality unseen since the end of the 1920s.

The reason why we can afford to put homeless people in prison but not housing is because if you house them the homeless person benefits but if you put them in prison we can funnel public funds to a private prison corporation. It’s always about funneling public funds to the wealthy. Always.

Donald Boat should be a totally made up character from a William Gibson novel but he’s 100% real.

"You get out your 'Fascism for Dummies' book for the 15 things you do, and we tried to include as many of them as we could in the most artful way possible. How were we supposed to know that this clown car in Washington was going to basically use the same book that we used?" #Andor #StarWars

Really bizarre argument from Doctorow not least because closely proofreading is… part of the task of writing! I’m not perfect but I always improve the work in that phase and I don’t infect the work with LLM speak as a result

#THETENX5 #20 THE LONELY ISLAND - YOLO (2013) This is not the last time this piece of music—or Kendrick—is going to show up in these challenges for me (definitely the last time for Adam Levine, tho.) Really an absolute all-timer banger.

regarding the recent news

I'm an unemployed video game designer with 14 years of experience and multiple shipped titles. Every day I get up to apply for jobs and every day the news says this

Replayed The Legend of Zelda last year, and was really struck by what a complete package it is; there really was nothing else like it on release in 1986.

Good piss

From the exp. archive: in 2014 I declare Metroid: Zero Mission the best Metroidvania in a review of Castlevania: Aria of Sorrow (which I like perfectly fine too.) Absolutely no idea if I still feel that way.

BS Super Mario Collection was a version of Super Mario All-Stars for the Satellaview, released in 4 episodes. Luigi does not appear in it. However, near the end of the final episode, before the final battle, a letter arrives in which he explains he was sitting out the adventure on a tropical island.

#THETENX5 #17 ACTION BRONSON & RIFF RAFF - Bird On A Wire (2012) +12 Absolutely no chance it was going to be anything else. The best beat ever recorded and so therefore the best song of the 2010s. You can't play it just once. Best YT comment: "Harry [Fraud] got this beat straight from God."

when Chuck Schumer tries to say something nice about Jesse today just remember he blocked the Jackson campaign’s 1984 proposed plank to recognize Palestinian self-determination

#THETENX5 #16 THE ECCENTRONIC RESEARCH COUNCIL - Another Witch Is Dead (Trad.) (2012) Not sure why this song, or the album it's from, is so hard to find online now, but as hard a sell this strange, synthy dirge is, it's atmospheric, hypnotic, and deserves to be listened to by more people.

Tonight’s dumb napkin cartoon…

As a man of niche opinions my absolute most niche opinion must be that DC should reprint Alan Moore’s full Swamp Thing run in B&W because it simply looks better like that

Here it is, your moment of zen.

The death of the alt-weekly has had such a huge effect on people and third places; I have no idea where to look to find out what's going on now. It has made people more isolated, killed institution and flattened art and culture because they wanted you on Facebook instead, taking psychic damage

B.ENO I have been informed that Mr. Eno has now seen this. “Very amusing” was the verdict. I get up to all sorts on Patreon.com/frasergeesin if you fancy it. My comics are also “Very amusing” and cheap from Frasergeesin.com

Well well well, if it isn’t the thing everyone knew and said would happen because it only happens to everything that gets privatised.
