Magic: The Gathering fans making fun of Disney Adults is like watching 7th graders bully 6th graders

I'm trying to stick to stuff more than a decade old for the main feed and this just made the cutoff point. Watching Redditors give themselves mental illness because they couldn't accept a video game series was over is even funnier now that Kojima has never been more prolific.

Next month I'm guesting on another show to talk about Boston and Shaun from the perspective of someone who was both a bad webcomics guy and a weird furry. It is always nice when you see these people are still making art and having fun twenty years later.

AHHHHHH THE FRENCHH DOT BMF

Gotta admit, it feels pretty hollow to watch people who spent a decade rightfully mocking groups like the oathkeepers suddenly act like they care a whole bunch about the constitution because they think it will trigger the chuds

smoking the shit that makes you ragdoll in Hitman

still not used to my silhouette being defined by my shoulders instead of my hips

Our episode on Home Of The Underdogs is up! Before torrenting, dedicated enthusiasts risked legal threats and sudden takedowns to make abandoned old games freely available. HotU was maybe the biggest and most influential, and its founder has been living a very cool life since then!

I can't believe I get to be the first podcaster to ever break the news that Luigi is in Super Mario 64!

happy to see my junk fishing game hasn't yet been killed by some API being discontinued. Play it here, see what you catch hireddivas.itch.io/trophy-phish...

CAP Alert episode is going to rule, this dude is funnier about Agent Cody Banks 2: Destination London than I could ever be

One of the current big drama snark guys on Something Awful is a Steam card baron and vtuber superfan. It's like when I see other furries making jokes about Christine Chandler, these people are never going to like you or think you're cool you're just feeding the monster that will kill you one day.

Writing on the window glass in a burst of inspiration as I calculate the exact ratio of eye size to bust size that makes an artist cross the line from anime-inspired to gooner-pilled

So psyched for the new Watch Out For Fireballs on Hitman: Blood Money. Dropped right in the middle of me playing the World of Assassination trilogy for the first time as a ground floor Hitman fan (OG Codename 47 with the weird numpad controls on XP) so I'm nodding along intently the whole time.

Fred's playing Tropico 4 and since he's a fan of south american music he had to use a custom playlist. The soundtrack is all produced in Germany with an intentionally generic inoffensive mishmash of styles so if you're familiar at all it's like listening to Chuck E Cheese covers of songs

I love the trans day of remembrance. Charlie Kirk and the the United Healthcare guy got forgotten almost immediately after they croaked while your average trans neet has people that will remember them for their rest of their lives. Everyone hiding behind a marble bust or anime girl could never.

I used to use Belyaev's fox domestication experiments to teach evolution in a small-scale practical way that students could understand (everyone loves dogs) so seeing those same mechanisms at work domestically is quite nice www.scientificamerican.com/article/racc...

I got Stubbs the Zombie in a bundle for $5 and this is the most Millennial Humor thing ever made. Even the achievements are snarky without being funny.

AVGN would absolutely work with Mr Beast for a modest sum

The more high-profile content creators I see discussing future Something Awful-based projects the more relieved I am that we changed gears with IFTI when we did. I definitely can't compete with most of these people when it comes to research/presentation/charisma.

Part 1 of Patron Request Gauntlet XI is NOW on YouTube! Nearly 10 hours of PS2, Windows, DS and more of our patrons twisted picks! www.youtube.com/watch?v=o7Fe...

OH MY GOD THE PERSON WHO GOT DASHA CANCELLED WAS FREE SPEECH WARRIOR, GAMERGATE SUPPORTER, AND BANG BUS STAR JONATHAN DANIEL BROWN?!?!?!?!?!?!!?

it's hitomi

It really is night and day reading the current Onion owner talk about satire being about attacking the powerful after researching the old guard being so proud of their incredibly vapid takedowns of restaurant guides and personality tests english.elpais.com/technology/2...

As a furry, DeviantArt nostalgia mystifies me. My DeviantArt memories are dudes with galleries full of anime pinups and untextured handgun models calling people like me slurs and bullying middle schoolers. There's a reason we all went to FurAffinity as soon as it opened and never looked back.

It's very funny that dudes like this invoke classical Western values when basically the entire western canon is about how signing up to hurt people for money destroys you inside and out. Shoulda read more classics, dead Nazi. ktla.com/news/local-n...

I use this to write the documents for my podcast and when you're reading aloud it is incredibly useful to easily tell apart letters and numbers in usernames and websites

playing Hitman: World of Assassination and I get how someone could find its portrayal of mental illness demeaning or offensive but to me it's kind of inspirational. People with cartoonish OCD can lead terrorist kill squads, shut-in neurotics with mommy issues can be brilliant bioweapon scientists.

American popes be like "sitting in a dark room watching a movie is socializing, squibs were worth killing a few stuntmen, my youtube recs sucking is actually the devil"

working on the Mark Mitsubishi episode and finding out that to this day the Mark family of Scottsdale, AZ car dealerships are still regularly making complete assess of themselves makes me feel a lot better about publicly shaming them for something that happened 20 years ago

Posting a take like this the week everyone attacked Target for mandating their (actually paid) employees smile at customers is exactly the kind of finger-on-the-pulse attitude that makes selling books such a popular and profitable enterprise.

Hitomi has such an attitude whenever poultry comes out

welp

I wonder how mind control fetish people feel about Pluribus. Is it super hot or do hiveminds not count?

the Eric Conveys an Emotion episode is up, it's always super cool when someone you thought was funny 20 years ago has been living a cool-ass life shows.acast.com/im-from-the-...

yeah if there's one thing the PC gaming market has been lacking in for over a decade its color and futurism

I think it's really funny that when Pixar made Wall-E they hired an Apple designer to design EVE, but when it came time to design an evil iPad for the new Toy Story movie they go out of their way to avoid invoking anything like Apple

when did felix biederman turn into johnny fiveaces

I've been following the guy who made the You Are Dead Dead Dead song from Total Distortion for years and watching this rockabilly-looking reactionary jump from NFTs to AI with zero introspection really makes me wish someone better made it

e-mail never trends for a good reason, why can't we just once appreciate the quiet marvel of electronic mail

oh huh

Fred played through Disco Elysium for the first time with me. My fourth or fifth time. Since everyone loves Disco Elysium, I'm only going to post criticisms because all the good stuff has been said before: Not highlighting used dialogue options having new/unused dialogue options sucks

I've been fortunate enough to be able to talk about the internet without making complaining about Elon Musk a pillar of my output. But there is one quite funny thing he was involved with that sucked so bad a lot of people never even knew about it, so it will actually be fun to talk about.

Braid is coming up on 20 years old and I still regularly see old gamers getting mad about it and then invoking a clip from a 13 year old documentary to make fun of it. Pity the generation of nursing home workers that are going to have to listen to gamers complaining about Braid as they sundown.

Oh man people on blue sky are really mad, they're dropping the asterisks from their cusses and referencing both Star Wars AND Charlie Brown

As a former biology teacher, whenever someone tries to wheedle away at Rosalind Franklin's accomplishments I just cut right to the chase and start making fun of James Watson's descent into race science. If you're gonna defend a bell curve guy then do that instead of hiding behind criticizing a woman

working on the kratom episode, really wish I remembered enough about organic chemistry to explain the -ine suffix easily but it's been 15 years so my days of knowing what a diphenhydramine molecule looks like just from the name are long gone
