A peek at GAME FREAK (Yep, *that* Game Freak!) tips 'zine issue 22 from 1985 where the solution to arcade Time Gal is lovingly and painstakingly illustrated and written out scene-by scene. 💜

I just want to live in a world where a Pac-Man can have two Pac-Moms and nobody even questions it. Is that so hard?

How can they even say this shit with a straight face? They invented an imaginary terrorist organization out of whole cloth and keep talking about it repeatedly as if it's a thing despite there being zero evidence of it ever being a thing aside from them just talking about it???

@kaelanramos.bsky.social Do you remember playing this classic arcade cabinet

I was disappointed with Obama's presidential terms. Didn't live up to the hype and he could've fought harder for the people who believed in him; however, he's literally the only president in my adult life who was well-respected among the rest of the world. Everyone else has been a walking punchline.

Update on "Who Goes Nazi" "MAGA appeals to people who need to feel special, who need enemies to blame, who need simple answers to complex problems. It attracts those who mistake confidence for competence, who confuse being loud with being right, who think that admitting uncertainty is weakness."

Give folks their flowers No, I mean right now. Go tell someone you loved their work right now. They're on social media just say it, it has never been easier "They know how much people love--" no they don't go say it right now to a composer or artist or game dev or writer or anyone AAAAAAAHHHHHHHHH

“Fascism is a political system built on control, fear, and loyalty to a strong leader. Fascism attacks democracy.” A quick primer on fascism and anti-fascism:

I play Star Trek online. I spot a Trump fan almost every time I log in. Star Trek. Like...how MASSIVELY do you have to miss the point to be enough of a Star Trek nerd to play the online multiplayer, but still support Trump? Usually I'm very against gatekeeping fandoms but...in this case...

Considering how many people miss the point of these movies, I think George Lucas needs to make another set of special editions just to turn the subtext into text.

Need someone to help me understand how The Republican party basically released their whole playbook on what they were going to do once they were elected, have been following it to the letter, and yet I can't find a single conservative voter irl who knows what Project 2025 is or what's in it.

Okatsuka posted the censorship rules for the controversial comedy festival, noting how many "You can’t say anything anymore!" comedians have signed on. www.avclub.com/riyadh-comed...

“Anti-woke” “free speech” comics only ever wanted to use slurs in an environment of impunity where people were afraid to criticize them.

Had to bring in a friend to confirm if these were real. He said it's legit.

*Not the poor, not immigrants, not the homeless, not trans people, not neuro-divergents It's the rich, it's corporations, and it's the politicians that enable them to bleed the working-class dry while scapegoating & fear-mongering those who have the least amount of power & agency in this country.

"We can do this the easy way...or the hard way" "We'll do the hard way" "Oh. Umm..actually uh, wasn't expecting you to say that. Boy this is embarrassing."

I miss when old people were old people

Some transgender people see only darkness in front and behind them. The current climate is especially accelerating this. Transgender people just want to love the people they love and live their lives as themselves. Let's all join hands and change the world🫶🌏🫶

I'm convinced men who criticize women for getting rich off of feet pics are just mad that they can't afford the feet pics and are trying to drive down the price.

Hey, I've seen this episode of Futurama

Rounding up my neighbors to lock them away in concentration camps is Nazi behavior. Sending your son to a reeducation facility to rid him of his homosexuality is Nazi behavior. If you don't want to be called a Nazi, don't do Nazi things!

The people who don't believe that black people are of equal worth and are deserving of civil rights ARE NAZIS. Buddy, we're not out here disagreeing over whether or not to put a stoplight up by Main Street. Those are full-fledged fascists!

DISNEY: "OK, we are putting Jimmy Kimmel back on the air. You can resubscribe now." ME: "I unsubscribed because you immorally bowed to fascism. I'm not going to resubscribe because you immorally bowed to finances."

It's so unhelpful to blame Kamala's race and gender for her loss. Like Hillary, she just sucks, and she continues to prove that over and over again.

If you want to stop being called a Nazi, stop doing Nazi shit. It's really that easy.

"I don't think Always Sunny is funny, I don't get it" 🚩🚩🚩🚩

Some of the coolest mfers in history were autistic. This demonizing of them is weird af

> "Ok, it's time to lock-in" > Immediately locks out

Donald Trump was elected to dismantle our government institutions and rip up the Constitution. That's his job. We do not want him to do his job, you dumb fuck

To Donald Trump, “doing his job” means censoring, deporting, and killing people so, no, I would not like Donald Trump to “do his job.”

Science doesn’t care about your gut beliefs or if you own a company that sells supplements. Science is a powerful tool 'cuz it requires peer-reviewed, double-blind testing & statistical validity. Otherwise, it’s easy to be fooled with wishful thinking, a recipe for disaster.

Hours after Charlie Kirk was shot, I emailed my editors at a major American newspaper a potential column focused on the role of Christian Nationalism + radicalization of young white Christian men. They killed it. This is what they published instead. The last line: The Show Must Go On.

An Update: I received an email canceling my contract as a columnist at @startribune.com after sharing this story publicly. (I had written columns past the one-year contract already + been asked to continue on in July).

We used to watch high voltage electrons projected onto a phosphor mask inside glass vacuum tubes and it was beautiful damn it

One thing I'll say about DC not only canceling Red Hood, but recalling the first issue and refunding stores for buying it, is that you can still get Neil Gaiman's work through them. They still work with Otto Schmidt. Eddie Berganza worked there for years AFTER the formation of a policy that no women

Disney/ABC have a responsibility to refuse to participate in corruption. Kimmel must be reinstated. If Disney/ABC agree to this extortion then perhaps creatives + workers should consider collective action to push back. Same w/buying park + cruise tickets if they bow. People have power. Ask Target

“What do you want Adam Schiff to do, he’s in the Senate Minority” This.

It's reasonably easy to set up a Plex server, is all I'm saying

Working over a month in advance on some podcasts is very productive and has no downside because no important news events ever happen in the weeks leading up to the release

“Left Wing Extremism” is about wanting equality for people regardless of ethnicity, gender or ability, believing that everyone deserves shelter, food and safety, education and a chance to thrive. Progressive is about moving forward. Curious that people are against that.

Every Democrat voted to honor a man who said my wife was too stupid to fly a plane and would never be as smart as a white man and both of us should be institutionalized and forcibly detransitioned 🙃😒

Here's one thing you can do: a disney+ subscription is around 16 dollars. Go on Patreon/Kofi, find your top 16 creators/youtubers with less than a million subscribers and give them each $1 a month. Changes lives, believe me
