I don't think internet built horror, like Slender Man before it, translates well to the silver screen when a key component of the original text "working" is how it spreads to popularity on the internet. The only reason to adapt it to film is to capitalize on how popular it is.

I could talk for hours about how brilliant "Absolute Batman" (it perfectly fits our current era by flipping the paradigm to blue collar v elites, the manga/FOTNS influence, its earnest embrace of "over the top" aesthetics, etc.) But really it's just damn fun. Look at this great action beat & end gag

My heart is full of gratitude and there are still 20 days left of the bundle

Dude

microsoft: AI is tanking us, AI is wildly unpopular, you know what, let's put two well-established, well-liked people out to pasture and replace them with an exec of our failing division instead

This is wild.

Essentially I’m using Cyberpunk to talk about two evolutions from pen and paper RPGs. Mechanical emulation and true role playing games centered on immersing the player in a role of which Cyberpunk and Disco Elysium are part of.

the video game industry is a mess

😺 Spring Snack Swap 🐸 My latest piece is a special one! the.angry.stitcher over on Instagram reached out to do a bookmark swap, and this is what I designed based on the shared prompts. This one was so fun to design and make, really loved fitting in all the themes. #crossstitch #craftsky

Working on my next piece, going back to '54 👀 #Godzilla

"she danced in the wind like a holographic dream before the world died" store.steampowered.com/app/4430780/... just got approved by Steam! the store page is up and you can wishlist. i'm over the moon! it's exciting to get that much closer to getting the game to more people. 🌼💕✨ #GameDev #IndieGame

Nothing like a flat tire to kill all the productive stuff you spent the work day convincing yourself you'd do once you got off.

New from me. A years-long battle with Valve's ineffective moderation rumbles on as bigotry and harassment is given persistent passes on Steam. It leads to lengthy, sometimes traumatic, processes to get content that violates Steam's own guidelines removed – if it ever is. In @theguardian.com.

casually crushed by the Duvall thing. like losing an uncle we recognized as an asshole but loved for his sheer badassery regardless. I have never in my life said "well fuck, Robert Duvall is in this thing" and not meant it as an overwhelming positive. RIP

"He was to be the hand who guides" New board from my personal project

This personal project, "Project LE" is an exploration of my ideas for horror I've been developing for about 15 years now. Environmental Horror, Cosmic Horror, Body Horror, Supernatural Horror, Etc. How these stories are constructed, how tension & fear is built. How space is used wrt art direction

Incredible

Getting my groove back.

This pops up every once in awhile and I always share it. Wu Tang goes in and out of popularity with the times, but there's no denying there was a Dream Team level of talent and brilliance on that roster. True artists.

A couple decades late considering it was one of my cousin's favorite movies and he had a bad ass replica of the main sword hung on his wall, but I finally watched HIGHLANDER. Same cousin that got me into martial arts film in the first place. I see why he held it in such high regard.

Smiling Damned is now live on Kickstarter! Yakuza stories in comic form, in the Japanese noir tradition. Please check it out. Support us if it looks good to you. Tell your friends, tell your enemies. Snatch up a copy right here: www.kickstarter.com/projects/jas...

Strange. I wasn't looking for this specifically but I found the note book where I first wrote down that line. The film, from the jump, spoke to me and I had to write down some of the dialog. I got it wrong. The line is, "They left me with nothing. I'm going to leave them with less." What a film.

Oh no. Yakuza 0 has made me a worse fighter in SIFU. So many bad habits I gotta shake off.

The No ICE in Minnesota Charity Bundle has officially LAUNCHED! There are 1,439 games to discover for a $10+ donation to Immigrant Law Center of Minnesota! Purchase the bundle here: itch.io/b/3484/no-ic...

Reminder that the link between anything Harry Potter and anti-trans policies is direct and immediate. There IS NOT EVEN the usual obscuring fog of money changing hands multiple times and eventually ending up in bad hands. JKR openly just uses HP money to fund anti-trans shit.

Michelle Yeoh will be getting a star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame next week.

A really excellent, detailed review, that's more explicit about just how much stuff *hasn't* made it into this remake - including the Murder at Cafe Alps sidestory, as well as the sidestory where Kiryu emphasises with a transwoman's struggles

That’s nuts because the Ayaka side story in Yakuza 3 is iconic and has achieved full blown meme status outside of the game as ‘Kiryu said trans rights’.

A full review notes most of Yakuza 3’s queer content removed, including the iconic side quest where Kiryu helps a trans woman. Really sad, the series oddball gutter humanism for society’s outcasts & oppressed & himbo queerness was what made it special. www.videogameschronicle.com/review/yakuz...

Any fans of IN A VALLEY OF VIOLENCE out there? Really adore this little western lead by Ethan Hawke and John Travolta. There's this line that Hawke says that goes so hard, it has always stuck with me, goes something like, "They took everything from me... I'm gonna leave them with less." God damn.

My little group of friends used EduPad back in the day, from 2012 until around 2016. And then we moved to Discord. It was sad leaving the old place behind, but we did. The new place *was* better. You do not *need* any given platform. We did not need Twitter. We do not need Discord.

Thinking about Scott Wampler. He would have had a field day with this kinda nonsense.

Sometimes the timeline just lines up right
