The Furious fucking rips. Best martial arts action movie of the 2020s. Kensuke Sonomura really outdid himself with the fight choreography on this. Take the action style of Baby Assassins, expand it beyond boxing and then put it into a movie with the fight pacing of The Raid. A Great pure action film

Trillionaire manifested by fictional economy underpinned by howling void

BREAKING: I am the world's second trillionaire because I decided every Kyoukai Senki kit is worth $5,000,000 USD so our warehouse now holds immense value and you have to take what I say seriously

One of countless examples—the Biden White House, long after Musk had embraced Nazism: www.nytimes.com/2024/10/20/u...

There is no just society that would tolerate the existence of a trillionaire.

A periodic reminder that guillotines are the moderate solution Cops are great

This stuff drives me crazy. He's "funding efforts to catch illegal dumping." Okay, and how? 50 more surveillance cameras. In addition to nearly 300 flock cameras and *AI drones* to monitor citizen activity. Barbara Lee is selling her constituents privacy for cash over here.

Mentally preparing for millions of women in Texas to vote for Republican men even though the greatest insult they can think of is femininity and whatnot.

Not quite at the same level but still forever a favorite of mine

So glad we've moved on from useful search engines that make the collective knowledge of humanity on the internet easy to find right into dude at the bar who will confidently answer any question you ask him incorrectly.

Oh fuck off Alamo for even running this. I hope the theater stays completely empty. Absolute trash.

As with all good satire, there is barely a joke here with its accuracy

Is there any real value to "live" reported vote counts? Do we really need to know the in-progress counts? What if the vote tallies were strictly confidential until the count is complete? Then no idiots can complain about "the numbers changing" because no shit, that's what counting things does.

Final Fantasy Resonance could be neat. New Muramasa coming to PC is very exciting. I'll probably never have the time for another Fire Emblem game, but I'm sure I'll keep buying them. More remakes is rather less exciting though.

I can finally reveal the cover for Nobuo Uematsu: On The Record, coming from @viz.com this September, which is not far away. Cover portrait of Uematsu by Yoshitaka Amano, foreword written by Hironobu Sakaguchi, testimonials from awesome guest stars, and tons of surprises! Preorder: amzn.to/4g6Y9ai

Elon should be the first trillionaire to lose every last penny.

Hush hush, eye to eye You're too

It kind of blows my mind that console fanboys are still a thing. It's like watching people get super personally invested over Coke and Pepsi when, whatever, they're pretty much the same thing at this point. It feels like as a society this is just something we should have moved past by now.

Fascist activist Bari Weiss spread lies to promote the US government’s torture and murder of Americans. Any Democrat who doesn’t vow to break the Ellison murder monopoly into oblivion the moment Democrats assume executive power should be run out of public life for good.

Fact, worth quoting

In lieu of Waka Tsukiyama, tonight's butt stuff will be brought to you by Maika.

Keep seeing people say that the woman accusing platner of domestic violence isn't credible because she's involved in republic politics. Here's what she wrote about him in 2016, about a decade before platner had any political salience:

Hegseth aligning himself rather directly with the soldiers *defending* the beaches at Normandy, who were, and you might find this surprising, not the Americans or Canadians or British, but rather, and this is interesting, the

Gotta say Stardom is doing a real good job keeping things moving now. The artists title picture is shaping up well, factions are getting joined, Utami/Saya developments, Suzu/Kurara build moving well, goddesses title match hasn't been forgotten, good stuff.

I can't remember precisely, but Dragon's Lair on Coleco Adam might have been the first game I finished that had an actual ending as opposed to infinite level loops. The load times of the cassette tape were truly awful, but worth it for such splendor.

Rian has matching Itoh Respect Gundan gear!

Is it weird that I'm kind of against Tifa in Street Fighter? It feels like the Fortnitification of things just kind of flattens the creative landscape. I'm glad there's 3 new characters, and I get collaborations are where money and attention is now, but it just kind of bums me out a bit...

It's not going to last, I'm sure, but sometimes it's nice for there to be a flood of video game news and just not care about any of it. Maybe I'm free, maybe I'm kind of done with video games finally. Almost certainly won't last, but for this moment I will enjoy the air.

rip Anthony Stewart Head 😭😭

Lesley Stahl is 84 years old, Bill Whitaker is 74. Have some SELF-RESPECT and follow your colleague out the door. Both of these people likely have more money than they know what to do with.

This timeline fucking sucks. He was a hell of a singer too.

People like Kane and many many others that do care about human art and the creative process have been a beacon of hope while trying to navigate making art in this current climate.

Washington Examiner joins the censorship chorus, and believes they will be greeted as liberators. "All pornography must be made illegal ... we must free people from partaking in it at all."

@threetwoeephus.bsky.social @actualnames.bsky.social Miroslav Satan

Same energy.

"Everyone seems to really like this new James Bond game, so rest assured you'll never have to worry about getting another game people like again. We own this brand and we don't want anyone making it look good!" Fucking insane society we live in

Wait,what? How? Why? My memory of Satrapi is when she came to The Boston Globe while promoting the movie version of Persepolis. Lit up a cigarette. Someone said “You can’t smoke here.” She said “Don’t be ridiculous” and proceeded to chain-smoke throughout the entire visit. RIP to a real one.

This is real btw

The original title of Mario Baseball.

This is still an all timer from her tbh

comic rates basically stayed the same over the last 50 years

This will not end w/ voting rights. The fundamental premises of these SCOTUS opinions are: 1) Anti-discrimination is actually unconstitutional discrimination; 2) Intentional discrimination isn't actionable if any alternative rationale is presented. It's the beginning of the end of civil rights law.

Guillotines are the moderate solution

Weird thing about AI is that it's the only new tech that I can remember that old people have aggressively adopted proportionally to how aggressively younger people have rejected it. I can't recall any tech "advancement" that has had that dynamic.
