Restricting the expression of sexuality through fiction and art made by adults, for adults – including those you find personally disturbing or offputting – is conservative censorship, full stop. When that censorship disproportionately affects subgroups, that's also discrimination. For shame.

andor is not theory. watching andor is not praxis. andor is a product, and one they continue to make money from every time you espouse how radical it is and convince other people to watch it too

creating a revolutionary narrative within the trappings of star wars let them tell make something that anybody regardless of politics would enjoy because the star wars empire is always bad and it is uncontroversial to rebel against them

Ideally, a boss runback maintains some of the initial tension of encountering the boss, and also offers some space to think and strategize. Respawning right in front of a boss means no time to think and therefore no time to adapt, encouraging a "beat head against wall" approach to play.

“no one owes you a game you can complete, they just make sure you don’t fail for the wrong reasons” is maybe the most succinct way to convey exactly how i feel about accessibility and its purpose. bring everyone to the same starting line with the tools needed to meet the intent of the game.

Bad headline: "ABC pulls Jimmy Kimmel off air ‘indefinitely’ over Charlie Kirk comments" Good headline: "ABC bows to government pressure to pull Jimmy Kimmel off air ‘indefinitely’" Kimmel did not criticize Kirk. He said his death was being exploited and implied the killer was pro MAGA

Every time something awful happens in this country it ushers in a new wave of “here’s how to ethically reorient the spending of your money” tweets and posts and op-eds and it is so bleak bro it is so so so so bleak

This is very, very much my stance. In almost everything. The desire for maximum frictionless everything is corrosive. It's not the internet per se but the ubiquity, ease, and speed.

I generally considered A.C.E’s occasional English lyrics to be a thing best not spoken of in polite company so the fact that Junhee has come out with not one but TWO extremely solid English language pop tunes in this solo adventure has been such a nice surprise

KIM KITSURAGI - "What is it, detective? Can you make it out?" BULLET - "if you read this you are gay lmao" 1. "It, um, doesn't say anything." 2. "Transgender ideology. My old foe." 3. [Espirit de Corps - Medium 10] "I think you should read it for yourself, Kim."

Had big plans about being really productive after work and instead I had to walk into my house, hunt down my poor innocent cousin, and ask him if he knew about the fucking groyper wars

I'm happy to announce the launch of 𝑾𝒉𝒂𝒕'𝒔 𝑵𝒆𝒙𝒕 𝑱𝒂𝒎𝒎𝒆𝒓? - an interactive resource that provides post-jam guidance to game jammers! I worked with @jimmunroe.net at GAIN to create this toolkit, which provides advice for jammers interested in commercial, artistic, or experimental development paths.

Equally excited and TERRIFIED to finally do this. Games journalism is in a rough state, so we've decided to get involved to highlight games that we think pave a positive future for the industry. And we named the outlet the best/dumbest thing possible. welcome to noclip_2

Ingold's rules of narrative: - the universe must have a moral arc - plants always grow towards the light - mean people aren't interesting but nasty ones are - good people aren't interesting but kind ones are - every liar must be living a lie - every maze must have a minotaur

I've explored the reasons why people are so divided over difficulty in modern games, and how gaming's history brought us to this point. I also used the word "stinkingly". kotaku.com/game-difficu...

This wasn't the reaction to Melissa Hortman's death, who was murdered by a man posing as a cop specifically because she was a sitting politician he hated. But they relate more to Charlie Kirk. That should tell you everything you need to know.

SHIVERS - I NEED YOU. YOU CAN KEEP ME ON THIS EARTH. BE VIGILANT. I LOVE YOU.

@chiltonm.bsky.social's article examining the cosy vs capitalism playoff in Promise Mascot Agency (and indeed, cosy games as a genre) sure prompted some interesting reflections about why I like cosy/life-sim games so much. Well worth reading! unwinnable.com/2025/09/05/m...
