shamelessly stealing this

reposting the ultimecias

on her tour for Hard Headed Woman, Margo Price replaced “keep all them haters underground” with “keep all the fascists underground” when she played “Don’t Let The Bastards Get You Down” at the PDX stop. she lost the Grammy to this face tatted bandwagoner goon. good read.

oh ICE is *that* unpopular now

there should be a high fantasy author who hates writing about food. "and then king aelfrid joined the dwarven feast and quickly wolfed down some ham and a corn or whatever. back to magic"

Hey, so The Spirit Lift... it's a good game. Like, I'm loving how it sometimes tricks me into getting wrecked on higher floors. The true emotion of a horror movie victim is overconfidence, and this deckbuilder knows how to draw it out. bloomedwings.com/2026/02/07/t...

if you don't listen to the entire opening song of a Tales game every time you boot it up what are you even doing

Take 2 minutes of your time and watch "The Hyrule Fantasy", a lovely Zelda fan film by french animator Ousmane Cissé. www.catsuka.com/news/2026-02...

when someone misgenders me

the Kirby music is so beautiful. it evokes a sense of whimsy and joy balanced with melancholy, nostalgia, a sort of wistful longing. there’s an almost City Pop element to some games. it takes me to playing Crystal Shards on my mom’s friend’s N64, or getting Tilt N’ Tumble for my high school GBC.

the illustrations are nice! but i genuinely don't know how anyone could be into the aesthetic of crystal project with eighteen layers of aggressive post-process.

I joked in my year end post about being a "gamer aesthete" because I thought the sprite work and design of early Kirby games pleased me on a primal aesthetic level, but good UX and design is a pleasure to interact with and is its own reward! It's a valid way to love a game!

I LIKE THEM. #PokemonLegendsZA

i will talk about whiskerwood until the dying of the sun

IMPORTANT OLYMPIC NEWS: THE POLISH FIGURE SKATING TEAM HAS A PLUSH PIEROGI

a film with a very good script is worth watching with subtitles, as a writer. cinematic rapport and good book dialogue are different, but intertwined. for me, the goal is to have dialogue always maintain forward momentum - sharp, to the point, focused on the destination. good film teaches that.

From our first issue of Dear Mother: "I think you've inadvertently hit on a gaming culture weak point, which is that both longtime gamers and newcomers often feel like they need to play a certain list of games in order to call themselves gamers." www.mothership.blog/dear-mother-2/

Clock Tower (PS1) (1997) 1/3

Video game intros and voice acting peaked in this moment

top schumering lately. his party's supporters want ICE abolished; he proposes ICE being reformed, & then those reforms are a bunch of half-measures like the agents not wearing masks, & then he waters that down until we land on the agents not wearing masks unless they say they have a reason. 10/10

in the paper owned by the CEO whose games company released “New World”comes another hit

AsterTracks is back! Well, sort of... new blog, ASTR Off-Air is now live! Instead of a traditional year end list I wrote about five artists I saw live in 2025 who also put records out through the year.

A bizarre number of people have stepped up to defend Julie Le. What you see in that transcript is an attorney who chose to do evil work—deporting people for ICE then moving over to DOJ in early Jan. specifically to fight these habeas petitions—being called to the carpet. She's desperate, not heroic.

@stopcar.ing played a cult-classic RPG, was devastated by thoughts of impending climate collapse, yet still holds hope for a brighter future.

The Wayback is now so load-bearing we should be protecting it with our actual lives

Can't imagine how she lost the election.

Sheer Heart Attack has no weakness, Aunt Peg!

Hate crime against hot people and people who like hot people.

The most disappointing bait-and-switch with RE9 is introducing us to Grace like this and then ditching the glasses for the actual game and amiibo.

oh hell yeah let's fuckin go

Back in my day you used to have to get into Smash Bros to get an Amiibo. Now all you have to do is be a Capcom game

a handful of videogames is, relatively speaking, an extremely easy thing to give up. think about what people are forced to sacrifice at the hands of the weaponry (broadly defined) funded by that millionth open-world RPG you just have to get. what's a game, any game, next to that, man

Extremely happy for things like the Super Bomberman collection, Orbitals still seems cool, I liked that dino survival game. What a wet thud of a "one/three more thing" though. No Bethesda purchases.

I feel like people forget and then relearn constantly that your Monster Hunter Stories mounts are called Monsties. Internalize it. Let it fill you with warmth.

very weird “I am Spartacus” thing happening right now with the worst people on earth

the sacred text

Newsom’s press team thinks Leavitt in a hanbok is a real takedown, because, in the end, most centrist political comedy is as racist and simplistic as anything the right churns out.

“This is my body, broken for you.”

unbelievably grim to see Valve announce a delightful and exciting compact Linux box approximately 15 seconds before RAM became the more expensive material in the known universe.
