1) citizens united fully taking the leash off buying political influence 2) the legalization of gambling 3) funding explosion for an executive goon squad think these are the three pillars of the Final Mafiafication of the united states. predatory vice funds the purchase of political power/violence

I played resident evil village before any of the others and then went back to 7. Lately I've been exploring some of the non-ethan spinoffs and they're pretty good. obviously none of these side game characters ("leon"? ok...) are as cool as my guy The Winter Storm but some of the others are alright

fucked up my back right after I got some really good news so now I get to celebrate by staying in and laying on the couch all day stoned and watching movies without any guilt

the bee takes flight

I love how dunk can say "do you want a clout in the ear" to egg constantly because after maybe the second time he said it egg realized "this guy would literally eat his own hands before he hit me"

checked an old email address on a whim and discovered an email from this very day listing the jobs available in my hometown

who wants to watch an old dumb piece of shit say some bullshit for a while

hi, I worked in indie games for 10 years and sorry, they're also burning down. you just don't hear about it because it doesn't make the news when a studio of 19 lays off 7, even when it's 200 small studios doing that

The problem with capitalism is people who are only good at making money primarily do it by screwing over all the people who can actually make things that matter

so if nobody can release any games and nobody can afford the consoles, what then. cause it feels like that's where it's heading for everybody

I don't think I've seen an Xbox of any kind in person since I gave away my old 360 in 2016

I should change my number

just goes to show you what the united states can do when the other team is missing their best player and the refs are blaming your opponents when you hurt yourself

oh so when somebody skates into your stick, that's your fault???

I don't like it when the announcer says that this or that athlete will be thinking about it and beating themselves up after they make a mistake. you don't know what's in their heart

just heard my upstairs neighbors yell LET'S GOOOO

very excited for the Century of Emk streaming

hooray for canada!! 🇨🇦

had a dream last night that my friends and I were all getting really into a trend called “creeping”, which is when you break into your neighbor’s house to see what they have in their fridge

today makes ten years since I quit drinking, how about that

saying yes ma'am no ma'am yes sir no sir in the american deep south is based almost entirely on vibes that would be impossible to articulate because they are an expression of condensed nuance. it's less a sign of submission than a show of respect. parents, teachers, the elderly. but many other cases

"can you anyone is nostalgic for 2016?" yeah man that was ten years ago and they're 23 now. there's new 23-year-olds every day and they're all kinda sad that it's not 10 years ago. that is their purpose

me when I see evil men spending crazy money to get hair plugs/height surgery/breaking their face bones to become more handsome

canada is the cutest country in the world

it's so dark that america is just an endless cycle of reinventing cultural and fiscal feudalism from first principles. like how nature keeps trying to make a crab, except it's a type of crab that grows its claw right through its own brain

finished golden sun, entered my 260 character password, been playing golden sun 2 a bit. I was coming up on a dungeon I remembered as being pretty damn long but I was like "eh I played this when I was a teen it's probably not so long." looked it up and

people in middle school thought I was a hacker because I was smart but socially off (this was like 1999-2002). the school used a website where you could access your grades at any given time. it was prone to going down for days at a time and somehow the rumor got started that I was responsible for it

Had a dream that there was global panic about the world running out of oxygen, Nintendo was the only video game company to make a statement about it, and the internet collectively spent its final hours on Earth debating whether Nintendo was being genuine or not

*14 hours into makeup* and I'll look cool right

it's hard to understand how things got so bad. my theory is we didn't have enough thinkpieces by people in their 30s interrogating the politics of cartoons for children. forty or fifty more of those coulda turned this all around

Take your gaming to the next level with Spotify on Playstation.

you should be allowed to smash any ring camera that you can reach with a crowbar without setting foot on someone's property

Songs don't say stuff like "Do wah ditty ditty dum ditty do" anymore. No one's in the mood for that shit

buddy gifted me an edible that's 1000 MG and approximately the mass of my thumb. calling that the yellowcake stash

new fallout season had some good moments but it felt overly committed to setting up the next season and I think weekly release actually hurt it, despite everyone rabidly insisting otherwise for the first season

not that it particularly matters in the grand scheme but I do take pleasure in knowing there's no way they actually paid any of those ICE creeps a $50K signing bonus. it's a classic trump conjob amount which means there is 0% chance of it really happening

You don’t understand. Cryptocurrency is the future. All it will take is everyone agreeing to this and if that doesn’t happen? Okay hold on

really adds insult to injury that the cabal of wealthy pedophiles running the world can't even compose an intelligible email

Didn't know until I was 27 lol. fun story, I decided to reassure my parents I was straight so I made up a story and told my mom I had THOUGHT I was gay but after having a conversation with a man on the internet named BlastoiseDude I realized I wasn't. this happened in 1998, when I was ten

dril being here was what got me to pull the trigger on a full move from twitter to bsky lol

dril was the person who invited me to this site. not worth using it if protecting pedophiles is the new mandate

a lot of people make themselves miserable online solely from their need for antagonistic strangers to agree with them but good god what could be less important

"I thought he just wanted to go to space!" that was you being a sucker, make sure to fix that because it probably wasn't an isolated incident

people will say like "elon musk was beloved 10 years ago" but I hated him even then and if you ever loved him then I'm sorry but you were a credulous sucker. I hope you grew from this experience
