I still can't get over how Phase 4 Dural feels to me...

Wishlist and Play MORE Indie Games final spotlight: store.steampowered.com/app/3195790/... A rogue like climbing simulator. The concept is straight forward yet every climb feels like an unsolved puzzle begging for you to conquer. The setting gradually unnerves and spurs your hunger for answers.

I sure hope they don't ignore what Erikawa has done to expose the dearth of female oriented content in the market. Truly one of the industry greats. I hope her successor is an embodiment of her efforts to move the industry forward.

Another member of the FGC has been directly impacted by ICE. YOU KNOW WHAT TO DO. BLOW THIS UP!! 📢 gofund.me/5141da1dd

Wishlist and Play MORE Indie Games today's spotlight: store.steampowered.com/app/2121980/... Never has a puzzle game made me feel like I was experiencing my own personal narrative. Haunting, emotional, maddening. My game of 2025 for a reason. If you do play it, just know 'nothing is as it seems'.

Kind of tired of people talking about raising taxes on the rich like taxes are a punishment. They are an investment in your home and your neighbors. All we are asking for is to reinvest in all the things that made you wealthy so your kids can be too. And yet... Tooth and nail they fight against it

Wishlist and Play MORE Indie Games today's spotlight: store.steampowered.com/app/2872240/... While this recommend has no demo, 'No I'm Not A Human' creator Nikita Veter and their team at Trioskaz have proven they know how to write compelling intimate horror. Fantastic trailer as well.

Wishlist and Play MORE Indie Games today's spotlight: store.steampowered.com/app/2443110/... One of my favorite bio-fantasys of the 2020's. It's more of a visual novel than a game, but it's a damn good one. If you like marine biology or nature doc style 'dramas' about strange creatures this is it!

All my homies want a Bloodborne remake but tbh I kind of want a DS2 remake using a more modernized combat system (if not Elden Ring even DS3's comat system would bean improvement).

Wishlist and Play MORE Indie Games today's spotlight: store.steampowered.com/app/2203210/... Part tower defense, platformer, and strategy game. There is no other game like it. Bask in this immaculately crafted dark fantasy world and ascend to new heights with Burggeist!

Wishlist and Play MORE Indie Games todays spotlight: store.steampowered.com/app/2986450/... Metro Gravity is a unique platformer with rhythm game elements. It's mechanically complex, has smooth controls and satisfying to master. With beautiful level and sound design it deserves a look and listen!

Wishlist and Play MORE Indie Games todays spotlight: store.steampowered.com/app/3856530/... About Fishing has a hauntingly beautiful art style and a slow burn narrative of crime, trauma, and vulnerability. It's still just in demo right now, but do some chill fishing so you can get chills fishing.

Dungeon Crawler Carl is a book series about rebellion, rejecting the ruling class, the meaning and value of pets and other forms of found family, and has a wide sweeping world build filled with brilliant and nonsensical shit. Reading DCC is like reading a series of interconnected train wrecks. 8/10

the masculinization of marketing

Okay bluesky I need your help I live in Massachusetts. You might think we're a bastion of lefty intellectualism but our state government a clusterfuck of post-puritan real estate bros Reskeet this. Text it to your "friends from home" Help this find every masshole poster who will know what to do

DUSTLOOP FORUMS REVIVED. RETURN TO THE OLD WAYS. www.forums.dustloop.com/index.php?/f...

I brought back the Dustloop forums. This is the first thread of the modern era.

A thread based on awesome and hilarious Virtua Fighter moments via clips. 🧵

"There is something important that life does that nothing else in the universe can do, which is that it makes things matter." Hank Green 2026

Temtem: Pioneers sees the light of day! A new adventure in the Temtem universe is blooming, a blend of creature collection, survival, and fast-paced combat action set in the mysterious Downbelow. Will you answer the call, Tamers? More info down below ;)🔽

The new social media ban in Massachusetts is so sweeping in its definition of "social media" that it would require age-verification for Wikipedia. You don't protect kids by cutting off resources. acrobat.adobe.com/id/urn:aaid:...

Don't taco Tuesday this shit. Millions of people spent the day wondering if they would get vaporized, and no one in our government stood up to him. Nothing cutesy about it.

posting this 'ol thing again for no reason

Look forward, we don't get through this by dwelling on what time left behind. It's about time we actually develop a coherent philosophical and ideological framework for how to take our future back.

Never let someone convince you war is more interesting than peace. War has only one goal and it is violence. A single minded machine driven by hate, misery, and trauma to the human condition. We tell stories in peace to warn us of war and they are largely the same. In peace, dreams become reality.

That’s what war is, what it does. It’s a thief of choice. It’s a trap. It’s a pit where freedom and creativity and choice go are swallowed. That’s what makes it awful. There are no good choices here. That’s why avoiding war is paramount. Once you are in it, get used to contradiction.

Scavenger's Reign is a modern classic. Honestly I could write an entire essay on why it is good and what it says about art. But watch it for yourself, I guarantee you will understand the vibe from episode 1 alone. 10/10 show and the only reason you don't know about it is because it's on HBO Max...

What a fucking shot holy shit

WATCH THE COOL ROCKET SHOW YOU GUYS I thought it was tomorrow, I guess it got rescheduled again. Watch the cool thing humans are doing today! It's not an April fools, I promise.

this is so much fun. Rocket launchers feel so different when it's "thing American public did together with their tax dollars and their government scientists" vs. "erratic billionaires with plans to replace us all with AI are lobbing more rich people or profit-making satellite into space"

This is my favorite climate change chart. Japanese monks, aristocrats, and emperors kept meticulous records of cherry blossom festivals for 1,200 years and accidentally built the world's longest climate dataset.

In the spirit of April Fools' Day but without sacrificing the Just Vine News veracity policy, here is a fact that seems so outlandish: The optimal chicken tender shape is Japan's island chain.

Just remember it's April 1st yah nerds

I have had people argue to me in the past that human rights are easier to see in hindsight and to be benevolent to our ancestors who judged minorities more harshly. But morality and an understanding of fairness are not rocket science, it's a philosophical compass. Human rights for everyone.

One of the reasons humans are my favorite animal is that we literally get to choose whatever form of courtship we want. My wife will serenade me with sweet nothings about her latest coding she did to render a graph in a cool visual format and I'll swoon every time.

We live in an age of untold riches, with more giant stories available at your fingertips than any one person can consume. The scarcity of years past is gone. Just let go. There's so many worlds waiting for you.

Seven-word death punch

Evil is not just an abstract concept, it's not just a storybook thing, it's a force with a coherent objective in many cases. It shapes our world, just as much as good. Evil is a force, it has agents, and if it is not stopped they will continue pursuing ways to increase evil's influence and power.

Huge thanks to WUSA9 for covering Ludovic's story! There's such a long road to go but we are so glad he was able to tell his story in his own words. #FreeLud until he's truly free, and free them all until they are ALL FREE www.youtube.com/watch?v=iupE...

America's national sport changing from baseball (peaceful and popular in many countries) to American football (violent and only popular in the u.s. so they physically cannot lose on the 'world stage') is the perfect encapsulation of the decline of Pax Americana.

"[Fascism] depends on the cult of action for action’s sake. Action being beautiful in itself, it must be taken before, or without, any previous reflection. Thinking is a form of emasculation." -Umberto Eco, "Ur-Fascism"
