I may delete this because it’s a bit spicy but it shouldn’t be lost on us that games being turned into TV is essentially harvesting the stories written by those who don’t have union representation or healthcare with WGA by those that do. Our stories are good enough for TV but the writers aren’t?

discovering that i now get watery eyes when i'm sick. brand new modifier for me. looks like i'm crying or smoking loads of weed all the time rn. sucks ass.

what

[upbeat zohran voice] I'm here at the Palace of Justice in Nuremberg, Germany, where 80 years ago some important progressive work started [smash cut] but hasn't ended. So here's what we're doing:

sorry, taking today/tonight off feeling kinda tired all day and hoarse in the throat. think i got a little sick from a family member.

This is what's so incredible about Morrowind's long running Tamriel Rebuilt mod, especially the newer updates its had in recent years. It doesn't seek to remake or reinvent the vision of the core game, it builds and fleshes everything out. It evokes so much of the original's soul. It's such a feat.

Try a couple decades of shitty emails ranging from simple insults all the way up to death threats from idiot fanboys who can't handle you giving a game "only" 8/10 and see which one puts more calluses on your soul, dummy. You'd fold in six months or less.

bless up to all the good people working at larian, but oh my god, swen has really been showing his whole ass out here since crashing out over the ai scandal

Excited for Bovino and his new office.

was outside shoveling snow and had some earbuds in. was listening to somebody playing a game. i quickly realized that it was a mistake to casually listen to a game that sporadically has realistic sounding gunshots in the distance lol

I can think of worse punishments. No really, I am actively thinking of worse punishments.

They know what they're doing is wrong. This is an attempt at appeasement.

Obviously, I believe in a London Bridge approach to things, but we celebrate our wins in whatever size they come, and keep the pressure on until the job before us is done.

Is driving a snow plow fun? I don't like driving normally, but it looks like a lot of fun.

the federal government is sending armed agents to formerly calm suburbs to hunt people down and murder them in the street. abolishing ice should just be the first phase. inside of anyone working for ice is something fundamental to humanity that is broken or missing. sickening, evil shit on display.

Excellent quote excerpting work here

props to whoever worked on the michael scott skin and made it lore accurate. the third pic here reveals that he is, in fact, wearing a women's suit. (the front buttons are aligned to the character's left side, as is commonplace in womenswear)

booming blade and shadow blade getting added to bg3's regular spell lists has done so much for making eldritch knight and arcane trickster competitive

jenna seikkula's concept art for alan wake 2 is so beautiful

ahh a nice night out at the movies. now time to check my phone and see what our mad pedophile king and his evil scheming viziers are up to

It’s cool how news has like, over time now. Extra innings for “the president has said some stupid shit that could lead to crisis.” That’s sick, actually.

occam's razor tells me that he's obsessed with buying/taking greenland purely because his old ass is scared of dying and he wants his legacy to be that he got the 51st state during the usa's 250th anniversary feels like madness - like we're speedrunning burning bridges with every longstanding ally

in my experience nine out of ten furries are good people they could save our economy and this whole damned country, if only we'd let them

when the carpal tunnel starts flaring

everybody always talks up the cheap rotisserie chickens from costco, but i never hear anybody hype these things up. 21-25 USD at our location for six of the packs together. vacuum sealed so they freeze/defrost amazingly. lasts us 2+ weeks easily. how are these so cheap???? shit's ridiculous.

we got the fallout chicken. you use the stimpak to pretty much ejaculate sauce right on top of your chicken. gonna try to post a clip on instagram lol.

Is Tim Sweeney the most libertarian man in the business rn? Lol

the more i hear from chris avellone these days, the more insufferable he seems. at this point, i'm not surprised there was a falling out between him and obsidian all those years ago. at best, he could be relegated to being like the chevy chase of video games, but the outlook appears a lot more grim

my guiding principal as I navigate both letterboxd and backloggd in this new year is that half-stars are for chickenshit weaklings

this is what people mean when they talk cold-weather warfare being the downfall of invading forces

huffing on any progress mamdani makes in nyc like its paint thinner as the nightmare of politics on the national level continues at this point i'm wondering if they really *are* going to try to go after greenland before 2028

important message to all bluesky users

oh shit, walton "cooper howard" goggins attended mamdani's mayoral inauguration?????? hell yeah, man

haven't seen it, but stranger things' final season is ass bc, unlike the previous season, it hasn't resulted in a ton of people going around singing that they'd "make a deal with god" previous season had people sounding like jrpg protagonists for like three months

no vids today btw. taking today off bc it's my birthday.

Got up from bed to use to restroom and then had rays of intuition and genius beamed directly into my skull: Disco Elysium's "Gary the Cryptofascist" was a pun the whole damn time because he's both a cryptofascist *and* a cryptozoologist. Oh my godddddddd. That's so fucking clever.

conversation over the holidays has been ppl asking me if i'm watching stranger things when i checked out of the show years ago now sorry bud, i've been watching this other show about the world's most miserable and pathetic lesbian where one thing happens every two episodes - and i fucking love it

they're raking this person over the coals this morning on r/thriftstorehauls who painted over the original rooster design of an old bread box. ts is killing me lol.

i guess it's because i've been watching the show, but the facebook algorithm has been recommending me a bunch of fallout reels lately noticed one looked kinda familiar and it's from somebody pretending to be me lmaooooo 💀

another robot highlight for 2025: man wearing humanoid mocap suit kicks himself in the balls

I couldn't find The Holdovers streaming anywhere this year. Might have to buy it if the same is true next year. 😭😭😭

Disco Elysium is now free on Epic Games!

pluribus finale was sooooo good bravo vince

ain't no fuckin way

hold up, so although the season premiere was on a tuesday, all future new episodes of fallout season two are going to be on wednesday evenings instead????? bruh, i thought we were getting a new one tonight 😭

oh my god it rocks how monumentally stupid they're being in trying to cover up and control the epstein files release the hits just keep coming. merry christmas lmao

Died in a car crash on Sunday, apparently. Tragic. Even speaking as someone who doesn't frequent FPS scenes a lot, Vince was a gamedev legend. His work on CoD changed so much. Titanfall 1/2 and Apex Legends were all revolutionary in their own ways. BF6 may not have had the reception it got w/o him.

we all thought this shit on old gpu boxes was marketing aimed at edge lord gamers trying to hit 60fps during their 25-man raids in sunwell plateau in reality, it was a campaign to desensitize the public to the cyber-soldiers coming 20 years later in the nvida x palantir private military company

steve and gamers nexus have been really cooking the past few days
