Just out of morbid curiosity, I calculated how long I could live off a million or a billion dollars based on my current costs of living. A million dollars covers me for 23 years. A billion— 23,000 years. I know it’s old news, but it’s literally impossible to imagine anyone needing that much money.

Hey! Later today, I’ll be recording a Patreon Bonus episode about the first Trails in the Sky game with series experts @lexplays.bsky.social and @theponk.bsky.social from the great @trailspod.bsky.social podcast. Feel free to send us any questions about this game or series!

Keep pressuring Microsoft to end all complicity! As a consumer, boycott Microsoft products whenever possible and join the Xbox boycott.

I love Silksong

I need this Hades II tarot deck immediately

Happy Hades II day to frog lovers everywhere!! 🧡🐸🧡

Microsoft will no longer allow Israel to use its cloud services to enable its mass surveillance of occupied Palestinians – "the first known case of a US technology company withdrawing services provided to the Israeli military since the beginning of its war on Gaza"

Brutal how great a nice walk in the park is. Brisk, even.

Fire Emblem Shadows is the Cats (2019) of games. It captivates with its confusion. After a staggeringly bad tutorial, the game immediately asks you for money in a way that is so confident, it becomes high comedy. I’m kind of in love with it.

Working remotely has led to me singing like Miss Piggy 200% more. Let me know as soon as you figure out why.

✨NEW EPISODE✨ This week in the Aether: Easy Delivery Co. is frigid and relaxing in equal measure. Puzzle Quest is forever. Stephen faces off against the Savage Beastfly. Another long chat about Trails in the Sky. Listen + Tell a Friend: intothecast.online 💕

Consume Me's biggest success is how it balances a goofy tone with real, tough shit. And it does that by giving its lead character (a fictional version of @qdork.bsky.social) a relatable problem: The desire for control. youtu.be/VewGiAY3_kQ

Hey! Big news — we’re recording a Yakuza 0 bonus episode tonight. Feel free to send us any questions related to the game or series you’d like to hear us answer

Genuinely powerful words to live by.

Hey

Why is this haunting?

Finally wrote about Trails, the series that’s winning by basically doing the opposite of what everyone else is www.theverge.com/games/781492...

things are bad enough these days that when I go to check the news there's a fog wall I have to go through first

Remember when Twitter let you record audio as tweets? I loved that. It’s nothing. I want a social media that’s just a bunch of voice mails with no description before you hit play.

Now this I like

Once again, the vibes are bad but you’re great.

I was on the wonderful @insequence.pictures podcast talking about one of my favorite graphic novels— On a Sunbeam! Thanks again for having me on! If you’re interested or want to be interested in comics, give this show a listen insequence.pictures/episodes/on-...

I can’t believe this exists

New Fire Emblem has me thinking about old Fire Emblem, so I drew Shez from Three Hopes #art #fireemblem

Anyway, I kind of want the next hollow knight game to be like James and the Giant Peach. I want a whole world that’s a rotting piece of fruit full of bugs. Thanks,

Silksong update: the fight against Lace feels like a final destination no items match against a fire emblem dlc character, I love it

want to put put there again that @goblin-cat.bsky.social and i plan to keep making games, and would really love to find a sound designer and/or a coder (familiar w godot) to keep in our circle and hit up for projects. ideally you’re also into telling strange and often scary queer stories. lmk!

Cowards for not doing a Sunshine movie first. I want to see Mario go to JAIL.

Ugh it’s time to replay, isn’t it?
