Khajiit has wares if you have coin

Dominic is one of the best champions of indie games there is!

"Facism is the act of self-deception in service of making your own life more painful, solely for the payoff of making life more painful for people you dislike."

It really frustrates me that we continue to nominate and give awards for queer content to big AAA assholes doing the bare minimum with their eyes rolling and lips curled when there are so many queer indies out there putting their hearts on platters that get ignored because they don't have the budget

Alright, doing my first #LetterboxdFriday! I'm really happy with my last four.

Okay CTA. This is a good sign.

I don’t want to post through this and I guess I still have shit to do but I am tired of people in power being selective over which of his dumb shit posts are policy and which are just posts, his ravings have ruined us already, his cronies have robbed us blind, how many does he have to kill, man

do we honestly have no way of ending a presidency for posting “a whole civilization will die tonight”

Disco Elysium and Paradise Killer are two VASTLY different games in art & vibes, and yet they're both detective games with themes of surviving under fascism, inside the colonial, capitalist machine, watching ppl be chewed up and spit out by it, and SOMEHOW they are also both extremely fucking funny

Please check out The Doll Shop on Steam! It's one of my most anticipated games right now. I played the original version on itch and loved its snowy Japanese village and contemplative horror story. Can't wait to play this expanded version! store.steampowered.com/app/3851680/...

A striking feature of Trump and his team is: they somehow imagine a world in which they are the only actors, only ones with power, and whether it's Tehran or Minneapolis are surprised when it turns out others do. There are many kinds of power and many nations with power.

this fanfic shit is easy #residentevil #chrisker

RIP to Jesse Jackson. His funeral is today. I wanted to share this clip from his appearance on Sesame Street in 1971. His important words ring just as true today as they did back then.

It's hard to narrow them down, but I feel pretty good about this list #my9games

Reminder that it's Bandcamp Friday! If you buy music on Bandcamp today, 100% of the funds go to the artists. Here are my purchases for today.

I apparently did really well at this! I got 46.03/50 on hard mode, which is better than 96% of players. dialed.gg?c=FRP6XB

All wonderful games! If you love historical fiction and great characters, you should pick these up!

Man it really feels insane watching the global order break down in front of me. like is my anxiety disorder especially bad today, or am I aware of how supply chains work and able to read the news

happy womens history month to all of the wonderful women and femmes in games. you are so loved and appreciated even when this industry continues to disrespect us💗💗💗

I loved RE9. I've seen complaints about its back half, but I enjoyed it because there were so many different things to do. A lot of it felt like action-oriented puzzles, figuring out how to traverse areas and clear rooms. It didn't feel as tedious as the last 1/3 of Village to me.

For ppl who aren't aware: Old temperate forests are insanely rare nowadays and extremely important ecosystems lost forever once cut. They're not just "old trees" but intricate networks of trees, fungi and all kinds of living creatures. You CANNOT replant this!! Once it's gone it's lost FOREVER!!!

"The notion of making a living with A.I.-generated books appears to be based on the belief algorithms will be serving up book slop the same way we are force-fed other kinds of slop" I'm still not over losing my job as a book reviewer. Here's why we need book critics: buttondown.com/charliejane/...

Yay! Here's one of my favorite songs!
