This is it. I nearly suffocated by using the reetroom. I’m asking my doctors agreeing on a short cure. Only really sure painful prolonged angona is hereafter the grim reaps me. Please donate on the funeral fund me now.

My second take on Orcish Bowmasters

Partway through Chrétien de Troyes' Perceval. One scene that shows the hazards of medieval politics: the knight Meliant de Liz challenges his overlord Tiebaut to a tournament. Tiebaut blocks up his town's walls because he's not sure if it's just a joust or if Meliant is using it to make war on him.

The kind of "rich" I want is the one where I can go buy groceries every week without looking at the prices. It's the kind of rich where I can support more than two Patreons and still have enough for a commission every month.

Ugh. Just shut up. Rian Johnson's thirst for a fascist incel to the exclusion of all other aspects of the story is a big part of why mainline Star Wars is currently in the mess it's in. #starwars collider.com/the-hunt-for...

Je déclare ouverte ma liste personnelle de one-panel-comics préférés. Pour marquer sa subjectivité elle commencera par la Joconde des one-panel, à savoir "Cow Tools", par Gary Larson.

Half-Life 2 is 21 today! The Citadel in City 17, art by the late Viktor Antonov (1972-2025):

Banks are targeting individuals by name because of their "high risk" line of work who are too outspoken. This is why we need you to stand up for nsfw creators

A cat was spotted sitting on top of Bolivia's 132-ft Cristo de la Concordia statue

Foundational figure in PC games. One of those load-bearing creatives where things would look very different for entire genres if she wasn’t around. Please help her out

hey canadian friends, did you buy packaged bread between 2001 and 2021? did u know that the grocers got caught price fixing and stealing from you and now you can get $50 of that stolen money back!? that’s your bread money, get it www.canadianbreadsettlement.ca

Rebecca Heineman @burgerbecky.bsky.social needs to be transfered by helicopter to a medical center where they can better treat her cancer, which means her gofundme needs $20k more. please give to support this trans game dev elder if you can!

I think medieval beekeeper outfits could be the strongest look in the entire history of fashion.

It bothers me that Speechify, the app was created not for the blind community (because that would have made sense) but for normal people to scan books and read pages in your favorite celebrity voices for a price meanwhile we are still struggling to get decent apps for the community to just survive.

...and after completing the game, you get an additional couple of scenes based on what I can only assume is a 100% true story youtu.be/aX_YNPBxwyo

silly new discovery in the SNES version of Wing Commander: The Secret Missions pressing L+R+Sel+Start on both controllers at once unlocks "The Really Really Secret Missions", adding a photo to the credits, replacing asteroids w/ former Mindscape CTO David "Greno" Grenewetzki... (1/2)

Hey so, today is my last day at Crystal Dynamics apparently. I joined the company in 2018 to work on Marvel's Avengers and it's been the longest (and best) job I've ever had. It now means I'm looking for work, so if you know of any senior writer/narrative designer positions please send them my way.

Oh cool they can ban celebrities they just pick and choose. Won't defend trans people but make a hyperbolic threat against a pedophile and it's the dungeon.

"Rian Johnson said he worked on the plot for eight months before he actually started writing." If only he'd had that level of commitment on Star Wars. It still might have turned out just as shit, though, given how badly Johnson misunderstood all the characters. www.theguardian.com/film/2025/no...

Andor (2022-2025) “They reshot it,” Joplin Sibtain (Brasso) added. “They did a lot with The Hound’s face, they had to superimpose my face on [him].” Rory McCann (Game of Thrones, Baylan Skoll in Ahsola S2) was Brasso, originally! 🤯

Insulting to the players, insulting to the IP, insulting to the medium, the developers. And the craft itself. Fuck you executives who pushed this garbage. frvr.com/blog/call-of...

SWORD LADIES!! ⚔️

NEW: the new game Dispatch is a huge hit (1 million copies!). But few people know how close it came to never existing. Here's the wild story, from a canceled Splinter Cell game (scoop!) to a Telltale divorce to the founders not taking paychecks for six months: www.bloomberg.com/news/newslet...

Are you prepared to make Important Choices?

PORN IS ART, PORN IS GOOD, PEOPLE MAKING PORN IS A SIGN OF A HEALTHY SOCIETY

Sama'a has lost her lifeline. She has been forced to start over, and needs us now more than ever

This can't be said enough: given how sex-starved and increasingly puritanical modern media is, writers and designers need to err on the side of PUTTING MORE SEX ONSCREEN IN THEIR GODDAMN STORIES. www.eurogamer.net/dispatch-wri...

Nightdive Studios did an interview with OG Outlaws level designer @kevindschmitt.bsky.social : #outlaws #lucasarts #nightdive #nightdivestudios www.youtube.com/watch?v=6nXI...

It me

I had the honor of making this painting for Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein.

I know its impossible/naive to try to identity an event where "things changed", but I believe that 9/11, more specifically the societal changes we inflicted on ourselves in the immediate-9/11 era (DHS/TSA/Patriot Act), massively undermined the common understanding of the post-WWII/Nazis-bad era.

i dont care what kind of media you made or consumed. It could be fucked up to all hell but as long as no real human being has been harmed or targeted in its making, you are of SIGNIFICANTLY stronger moral fiber than any of the people who supposedly "lead" us and dont you let them tell you otherwise

Hearing suggestions that this wasn't released in the US, so this could be a lost NTSC version of the game. Hoping to clarify if that is the case.

1000% this, but also (and it’s preaching to the choir here) it can’t be overstated how much voice actors can add to the material. IMO the funniest line in any of the Sam & Max games is only really funny because Kid Beyond nailed the delivery.

I hate what the new ownership has done to Asimov's, Analog, and F&SF. Important venues and parts of SFF history strangled by greed. Please read Scott's missive here.

Glad to see Polygon cover the resistance of game developers to generative AI--and to be able to speak briefly to one of the greatest dangers of this entire thing. Gen AI doubles down on making MORE SPACE for production issues that *already make games worse.* www.polygon.com/arc-raiders-...
