Same mind virus that apparently caused people to hear '(only) black lives matter', instead of 'black lives matter (and for some reason we need to keep saying this because society sure as shit doesn't behave as though they do)'

Sudden urge to play Outrun 2 / 2006 and yeeeeerp. Expired Ferrari licence. Not available anywhere -_-

Okay, this is pretty wild

I scream, you scream, we all scream for... Screamer? @pretendbeard.bsky.social had his foot to the floor for this review, so go give it a read www.player2.net.au/2026/03/scre...

Making the Strait of Hormuz safe for energy shipments would be a remarkable accomplishment, one that the world has never seen since the beginning of the month.

Bought a zero alcohol g&t and it's less satisfying than... just straight tonic water?

These are different games... right? Right?

A somewhat fascinating, and honestly pretty fun racer that could probably turn that minus score-modifier into a plus with just some balance tweaking...

Despite our instance to the contrary

Going to post this word for word with Trump's name swapped in there when it happens and no one will make me feel bad about it

It is but I remain terrified by this track of people voting for One Nation

ramiel #risograph

The point isn’t One Nation’s non-existent due diligence, but the fact that it keeps attracting this kind of person as candidates

Blue Sky

Cool, but also I once bought a game in a Steam sale foe three or four bucks, only to later find out it refused to boot up, and honestly that likely stung me financially more than this will sting him :/

I’ll always remember Brendon most from a little indie sci-fi film called Coherence (which you should absolutely watch right now, in his honor)

Breaking: It’s revealed SA One Nation candidate AOI Baxter has a warrant out for his arrest in the UK for failing to attend court after being charged with sexual assault. Where does One Nation find these predators? 🙄 #auspol

I couldn't be more excited to announce something I've been working on for a long time - Please welcome Belltower House Artist Residency, a multidisciplinary gift of time in my erstwhile home in southern New Mexico, now accepting applications for 2026. belltowerhouse.org

I learned that although we learn from our mistakes, we're condemned to make those same mistakes, again and again, from ... *checks notes*... The... Hilltop Hoods

Booted up Burnout Paradise and this is quite transformational. Visibility is playable now, and i may actually give it a proper shake again...

Wait... that Switch 2 update that installed last night adds a toggle that allows the console to use docked mode when playing Switch 1 games in handheld mode?

& the other realis illustration. salted meat moon (???)

If you live in Illinois’s 9th District, please vote for Kat Abughazaleh. You still have time, this hour and the next, to make a difference in what should be quite close, so go vote, and maybe take someone else with you.

Looking for a relaxed and chill trip to the fair? In that case, @wordsbyalayna.bsky.social suggests a ride on the Cozy Caravan. www.player2.net.au/2026/03/cozy...

Cool. Now do this with shit like fines and base it around d net worth, so if Bezos has his car run a red light or some shit, he's on the hook for two billion dollars

Play 'You Are Elon Musk', the sequel to 'You Are Jeff Bezos': aftermath.site/elon-musk-vide...

This was not Dennis Durkin, it was Blizzard CFO/COO Armin Zerza. Zerza, perhaps the most controversial figure in Blizzard’s history, is extensively covered in Play Nice: The Rise, Fall, and Future of Blizzard Entertainment. As is the story of how Overwatch League impeded Overwatch 2’s development.

Not my favourite of this type of narrative adventure, but I'm happy that the specific niche of awkward, nerdy lesbians with memories of the 90s got something made just for them

Some wild shit on the Epic store sale...

*nodding wisely* that’s how they get the Evangelions out

Me, as I kneel on your chest and spray a can of mace into your eyes: “WHY AREN’T YOU PROTESTING?”

“this just proves MJ would average 50 in today’s NBA!” my friend if you dropped Michael Jordan into the 2026 NBA his career would last exactly one day after he found out about FanDuel

It's been 7 hours. We hit the goal. We hit the freaking goal man 😱😱😱😱😱😱🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹 Every single person who made this a reality on day one ... thank you so much. So so much. We are doing this!!!!!!

gotta be another way to do this

@pauljamesgames.bsky.social has been flying high in the world of Monster Hunter Stories 3: Twisted Reflection. Here's his full review www.player2.net.au/2026/03/mons...

The talk about Nagoshi had me wondering “what about that Yu Suzuki game that got announced last year, is it okay” Turns out it not only came out early last year to no fanfare but Netflix already delisted it from their Netflix Games platform. yikes

Pretty down with this. Being g unable to review Romeo is a Dead Man properly caused me to ramble on in a similar direction

That's two what I guess are more advanced walking Sims in a row, and this was also quite good. Has a reteo-future style that I dug a lot, presumably as a result of when the 'classic' story it was based on was written. A slow burn with some really impressive sights along the way.

Even though some of its enemies are spiders, @jesszam.bsky.social has been playing the cinematic sequel Planet of Lana 2 - and has found it to be an improvement on the first game in every way (including fewer spiders) Read her review here: www.player2.net.au/2026/03/plan...

BTW it is EXTREMELY common for academic papers to declare Lara Croft the first playable female game character (a very easy fact to debunk). As a grad student I wrote a paper that traced every appearance of this "fact" to a single paper, which is why you don't only engage with academic texts!!

It honestly feels that so much if this Labor government is just a repeat of the wolf of last LibNat one, only dressed in the sheep's clothing of saying the right things when the cameras are rolling

"The CIA conspired to make me less cool than I was when I was 25" is the most succinct Gen X manifesto I've ever heard

*Crosses out the Concord anecdote currently opening the intro of the next book I'm writing*

When we talk about Baby Boomers not getting off the stage: In 1997, the US president was born in 1946. In 2007, the US president was born in 1946. In 2017, the US president was born in 1946. And next year in 2027? The US president will have been born in 1946.
