At an Angine de Poitrine show and it's fantastic, but also it feels like there's a distinct chance we're going to get sacrificed to the elder millenial gods.

Look, some nights when you can't sleep, you just have to stay up playing Zelda and stress eating popcorn.

Every time I feel I couldn't possibly feel more overwhelmed and exhausted, I remember all the other times I've been wrong about that.

carly rae showing up like gandalf at helm's deep

Spoke with multiple friends affected. To say that there are foolish decisions being made here would be a wild understatement.

"I believe with all my heart that if we work together, we can restore Hyrule to its former glory and beyond."

Pixel getting ready to go visit the human hospital!

My dad has always been my #1 cheerleader. Whatever I choose to do, he's always right there supporting and encouraging me. He had a heart attack three days ago, and we're spending Father's Day in the hospital. It was scary, but he's okay, and I'm glad I can show up for him like he shows up for me!

My power went out at exactly 0:00 of the Marathon exfil countdown and I was SHAKEN.

"Even if you earned it, you still owe."

The main reasons people don’t vote are didn’t care, didn’t think it mattered, wasn’t paying attention, forgot, felt like doing something else on Election Day, and things along those lines. Very few nonvoters are calculating. One reason is because voting influences parties more than not voting.

I propose a National Birthday Treat Fund. Every year, we get a cheque equal to our age from the government.

Another non-spoilery thing about the Widow's Bay finale, I enjoyed pausing and going right up to the tv to look at little details. The design on this show is SO FUN.

The acting calibre on Widow's Bay is a TREAT. A tasty homecooked Sunday dinner after a work trip of bland hotel food and stale vending machine snacks.

"Game dev is one of those jobs you only do when you really want to. It's not going to make your parents proud, you're unlikely to get rich in an industry that lays off people for making superhits, and its a demanding & confrontative job. Why would you let a machine do the thing you're here to do?"

A few things to do before getting laid off; - record people's names and contact info - backup all your receipts and "receipts" - use up your benefits as fully as possible - save anything that helps you show off your work - send me a copy of your brand style guide (email in bio)

I don't want to glamorize opiates or murder, but after a long and sore day, I might need to take painkillers and kill rich bastards in Hitman.

"donkey kong is a fool if he thinks wearing a tie will earn him respect"

Instead of banning youth from social media, maybe regulate algorithmic scrollers built to ensnare the human brain like lab rats in order to sell trinkets and influence elections.

I am not necessarily in support of prohibiting anything for anyone, but it would be kinda awesome if all the youth social media bans lead to a resurgence of the BBS.

You've forsaken the sandwich artist's bushido

Do. Not. Let. AI. Touch. Your. Game. Once you are tainted, it will never wash off.

If they put up a giant white tarp, what's the funniest thing someone could project onto it?

meanwhile on Pennsylvania Ave

only divorced women have felt this kind of anticipation for the removal of a name before

Okay, but I already took my sleepy bedtime medicine, so this needs to move along.

There are two guys bantering in earshot of the CSPAN livestream and I'm living for their commentary. They're talking about how there's bamboo scaffolding in Minecraft now, and how "kids these days don't know what we went through in Minecraft". Someone tell them I love them.

Imagine simultaneously being the world's first trillionaire and the most unfuckable man on the planet?

You can go a little loopy if you begin thinking of yourself as a Political Operative simply because you post about politics. This is why it's so important to drop an occasional grounding post like "The brain is the ass of the head" to remind yourself that you are just some guy

I had a tooth pulled today, and nothing could have prepared me for that horrible sound!

i would buy and frame this and i don't even know what the parkview tavern is. incredibly powerful cultural document

Help, my partner has just sent me a super hot selfie and now I can't read or count or operate heavy machinery anymore.

I do need to start job hunting again in the near future, and I genuinely have no idea where to start. Usually I'd be looking for a remote marketing role (I don't live near a city centre) but both remote and marketing roles are gone. I'm kind of at a loss of how to move forward anymore.

I wish I could be into Disney stuff, but I'm just not. I don't have that dog in me. (Garsh.)

In the Grim Darkness of the Far Future, there is only Mickey Mouse

I hope Nintendo announces a hundred more AI-generated horny puzzle games!

As a non-American trying to stay informed (and being wholly overwhelmed by the American media landscape), HCR has been such a fantastic resource. What a fantastic educator!!

It makes sense that people using generative ai for creative work do not have a body of creative references and/or inspiration.

It is unendingly painful hearing someone gentle-parent basic business 101 concepts for their nepo baby executive boss.

you can just straight up replace “ai model” with “bullshit” in all contexts eg “all bullshit is wrong, some of it is useful”

It's going to be something watching Asia based devs grapple with the fact that while GenAI is more accepted in their domestic markets, they're going to see massive backlash in Western markets.

I've got four months to build up a friend group that likes co-op survival games.

Finally watching the first episode of Widow's Bay! Say something I'll only understand later!

I don't want things to be perfect, I want them to be not bad.

I have made poutine with leftover gulays gravy and tater tots.

If you haven't heard from me in a while, it's because I'm devoting all my time to lying on the floor.

People like Kane and many many others that do care about human art and the creative process have been a beacon of hope while trying to navigate making art in this current climate.
