day 3 of #repostyourart is spring, and you know who is here in spring? BEEFLY

Everyone has heard of 'An American Family,' the pioneering docuseries and precursor to reality TV. Well, 52 years ago today, a similar UK series titled 'The Family' made its debut on BBC1. It was celebrated, criticized, parodied, and decades later remade. Seek it out online.

Friends!!!

Seeing people posting their favorite Good Friday tweets, and I'd feel remiss if I didn't share this amazing @bransonreese.bsky.social comic

Every day I think about this passage

RIP James Gadson, master drummer, who played on everything from Charles Wright's "Express Yourself," to Diana Ross' "Love Hangover" to D Fagen's "The Nightfly" to D'Angelo's "Black Messiah." here he is backing Bill Withers in 1973: www.youtube.com/watch?v=9Smt...

sorry to report but that gum you like which recently came back into style has receded into obscurity yet again

I reviewed Marvel MaXimum Collection for Nintendo Insider. I had a really fun time revisiting memories both good and not so good in this quirky assortment of classic Marvel games. www.nintendo-insider.com/marvel-maxim...

I also did a shortish review of Minishoot' Adventures for the Nintendo Switch 2 over at the TouchArcade Patreon site. A great port of a surprisingly fun game. TouchArcade articles are free to read, but we don't mind if you pitch in a little $ to keep the lights on! www.patreon.com/posts/154671...

This has been in my head for months now

The craziest thing I've learned from working through the Wes Anderson box set is how much he draws from 70s-80s action TV: Starsky & Hutch, Miami Vice, A-Team. Fantastic Mr. Fox deliberately pulls visuals from the latter two

So the Birdbuddy app has a social media feed where you can scroll through other people’s clips and it’s maybe the best thing ever?

I hurry through the museum, taking a photo of every artwork and every explanatory text. I will never look at any of them.

Trying to punch a little above my current ability learning a song. There are like 4 different sections and one with some jazzy chords in it, and I can pretty readily (if slowly) translate 1st position guitar chord charts into uke but I am all over the place attention span/time-wise.

You can poke through the archive yourself: archive.gamehistory.org/folder/eea58...

Now that @gamehistoryorg.bsky.social has added Tips & Tricks to its library, it's possible to dig in and read about early FGC history and results. I used to play at Wizzard's (and was even in that cvs2 tourney, I got 9th!) and this page was posted near the entry until the place closed.

Fundraiser for librarian Luanne James, who stood up to her rightwing library board that demanded she remove kids books with any trace of LBGTQ+ characters or content. "I will not comply." They sacked her and cops escorted her out. She's a hero. This banned author just donated.

I've laughed waaaaaay more at this than I should have.

cool thing to support instead of whatever dogshit's being pushed atm

My brain has gotten stuck on coming up with games where you can kill Hitler. Off the top of my head: - Golgo 13 - Bionic Commando (FC/NES) - Wolfenstein 3D - Persona 2: Innocent Sin - Operation Darkness - Most of the Sniper Elite series

One wants to "get the bag", but doesn't want to be "left holding the bag". A fascinating lesson in impermanence.

Add this game and this developer to your ignore list on Steam.

The best part about letterboxd is that your friends' viewing habits reveal who has a Criterion Channel subscription and who is a Blank Check listener

This weekend and always, NO LILIES FOR KITTIES. www.fda.gov/animal-veter...

Banjo fans! I've recently been pondering (🤔) how Banjo-Tooie has a lot of score-based minigames centered around targets, hoops, etc. that are red, blue or green. Do you have colour vision deficiency? Were these minigames particularly hard for you, or were other clues enough to get by? Let me know!

Micro review of Super Mario Galaxy Movie: WHY DO ALL THE GOOD GUYS HAVE BRIGHT BLUE EYES? Asking this as someone who has blue eyes. It’s super weird. It’s like watching an episode of Mad Men.

There are toilets everywhere for those with the eyes to see

legendsoflocalization.com/articles/mov... I've been seeing posts about The Wizard, that Nintendo-centric movie from like 35 years ago So here's a look at the Japanese translation of the movie!

Absolutely gorgeous spring day and people are practicing all sorts of moves at the transit station.

My wonderful friend Alys (co-host of The Life Toyetic) and her partner need to get out of their current living situation as soon as possible. If you can, please help: linktr.ee/alyshoy

hey all I wish I didn't have to make this post but my sweet baby bird Opal needs a high-risk surgery to save her life I've started a GoFundMe if you are able to contribute. You can also check out my shop, my ko-fi, and commissions. #mutualaid #art #parrotlet

when a girl's hot enough for me to break out the maximum autism moves: i have an entire room in my apartment for retro gaming... wanna come play Wii or perhaps even the Sega Dreamcast?

mine and @bobservo.bsky.social's fav dioramas at Diorama-Rama last night (an annual contest at Simpsons Trivia)

I love drum games. 太鼓の達人大好きですっ‪☆

One of the great slogans of our age.

lucy get iphone? nope! this image was actually created in a computer program called "photoshop". just a little prank for april fools day😉 #false #lies #fake

It's tomorrow now but I released a game yesterday! Check it out!

For #Tdov please check out my podcasts: @vgatwtoe.bsky.social (gaming politics) and @crtsoundsystem.bsky.social. I am funny and wish to be asked on more podcasts.

A really good April Fools prank would be sending me money so I can afford to eat and travel to hospital appointments whilst I still battle to get the DWP to recognise that I'm disabled. It'll be so funny!

I wrote a Freddy Got Fingered-themed parody of Five Nights at Freddy's that sounds like an April Fool's prank, but isn't. Here's a video of me discussing it with my son/inspiration and a link to the Kickstarter campaign: www.kickstarter.com/projects/210... www.youtube.com/watch?v=PRZS...
