How is it that I have to edit this nonsensically specific meme twice in two weeks?

Fanbyte is well and truly dead

Just looking through some old things

I like how sports betting wasn't enough. Now we have to have everything betting.

Well at least F1 starts this week

Officially laid off! Looking to start work ASAP doing writing, editing, content management, analytics, or SEO. Full time preferred, contract or otherwise but I'm open to freelancing too!

Damn dude what read. Fantastic reporting.

Bad time to be looking for jobs He says for the 50th time in the last 4 years

Well then. After 9 years my role of Editorial Director at Eurogamer/IGNE has been made redundant. If you’re reading this and feel I have a lot of valuable experience (I do), I’m keen to explore any opportunities (full time, consulting, other) in the games industry. I am great.

The second you leave this country for even a few days, you realize the place you call home is decaying at an almost exponential pace. The realization that you don't have to live like this is stark, and that nobody in power is taking tangible actions to fix it in your lifetime is even starker.

It's very weird to hear a spinning disc drive while playing a game in 2026

That's not very By Gamers For Gamers of them

Zero way this is a person

everything is layoffs

I've decided I've simply done too many things in my career

Damn I was good at my job. Hire me!

why cat hate crinkle

Chicken out, running around like a chicken with its head cut off, crow like a rooster, no spring chicken, eggs all in one basket, count your chickens before they hatch, fly the coop, walk on eggshells, chicken scratch, rule the roost, bad egg, egg on your face

Well Breath of the Wild is the only one I've played even if it was only maybe 15 hours so

Sharing this again because I'll be lucky if my contract isn't ended before May due to cuts.

You don't have to use the block button if no one interacts with you

It's him

I want to get back into music this year so making a thread where I share songs daily or whenever I remember to. For context I'm down to like...40 new songs a year at this point and there's so many artists I want to catch up with.

I would watch a livestream of this endlessly.

For years I was always like "I don't get headaches from caffeine withdrawal!" Turns out that was a lie and I had never really gone cold turkey.

Day 1 of my caffeine reset: owie

I appear to have launched myself completely out of video games.

what a CRAPPY way to go! (sorry)

I mean.... youtube.com/shorts/QvyCD...

Weird thing to write but for the first time in ten years I'm looking for a new job. Current contract is up after May so if you see anything that seems like a fit for me keep me in mind!

Gotta love the push to go public. Love enshittification.

Yall ever just split a carafe of sangria

Took a friend to a cooking class today and the instructor (28) told us about the time a 75 year old dude emailed her about having a threesome with his wife after taking her class. After The Documents I suppose nothing should surprise me but still... MEN.

?????????? It's a fact

These are a) one time purchases that last forever and b) only 6 ingredients!

There are few films as bad as the new silent hill movie

Until the law makes it so that fines are larger than the profit made by breaking the law this shit is just a cost of doing business.

Tell me your pets name in a gif

Does anyone play strategy games on their Steam Deck? Stellaris, Rimworld, CK3, etc more so than console build strategy games.

@chuckduck365.bsky.social isn't this that guy @nikigrayson.com mentioned

Look up

Every birthday I try to remind myself that even at 33 I've really only been an adult for (generously) 13 years.

BREAKING: Judge dismisses murder, weapons charges against alleged UnitedHealth CEO killer Mangione reut.rs/45Fin56

Randomly remembering the days when I had a bot set up to tweet whenever I earned a new Xbox achievement. Social media sure was different back then huh

It takes so long to put together a well scripted and well edited 10 minute video and instead this kind of slop is what's rewarded

Worlds out of chicken now, thanks

Sorry to quote you Eric, but as someone who has done proper coverage of video games and gotten nothing but awful comments, it's ridiculous how different the comments are on the YouTube account I manage. Some bad comments sure but it's almost all praise and excitement.
