Literally the only times I've seen Cybertrucks appear in TV shows this past year have been as a joke at the expense of whichever character is driving it.

@glutelord.bsky.social is essentially giving a PhD dissertation in under two minutes on how modern incel culture is coopting a very narrow and weirdly specific gay sub-culture.

Karl Urban has been doing a British accent on The Boys for 7 years now and never once sounded natural doing so. At this point I'm convinced that it's an intentional creative choice and I respect it.

I know people say this every time a new season of The Boys drops but it really is demoralizing how not exaggerated it is. Aside from the gross out shock humour most of it is just stuff that has been happening.

Dishonored 2 and onwards obviously looked amazing as well but there's something about Dishonored 1s painterly style and super baked in lighting that makes me go "this is a perfect looking videogame" every time I see it.

Until/unless I get a "real job", Eldritch 2 is what I'm working on now. I'd appreciate it if you'd give it a wishlist! I've been documenting its development as a hobby project for the last two years over here: www.dphrygian.com/wordpress/?c...

ok so the license costs for AI staff will be the same as for people, and human staff will have to buy so many tokens to cover the workload of their missing colleagues that it will cancel out any savings when AI companies jack up the prices, BUT at least control of output will also be far worse

Transmog? Uh, yeah they do!

There is no doubt that internet is one of the most important inventions of humankind, behind fire, spoken language and organized government. It does, however, come with certain drawbacks - for example: it has never in history been harder to avoid how weird some people are about feet

I was singing Capcoms praises earlier and even I forgot that this was also one of their just this month. None of the big dogs are doing it like Capcom right now in terms of diversity, quality and pace of releases.

honestly at this point if a story comes out suggesting that Chappell Roan is a bad person for any reason then you should have immediate double locked suspicion about it

So once again a man started a wildly successful harassment campaign against a female celebrity who didn’t actually do anything and the internet swallowed it full throated, and the whole thing is revealed to be concocted horseshit he can’t muster anything more than “sorry that happened I guess”

Farting to relieve pressure on my bladder and delay when I need to pee next like I'm redistributing ship power in FTL: Faster Than Light

Hey! Wishlist lunr.rdio.taxi (a.k.a.: DRIFHTM under the influence simulator) store.steampowered.com/app/3644540/...

This entire clip down to the "Trump Orders McDonalds" crawl at the bottom feels like a fever dream, you couldn't recreate the cultural and societal trajectory that created this moment if you tried for a thousand years

Extremely good point

The triple A games industry is spinning out atm and Capcom is over here seeing massive success with: - Investing in their own super scalable tech - Not doing multiplayer at the expense of single player - Serving existing fans - Exploring new ideas as well - Gameplay first approach across the board

me when I remember that the Final Gamer always has a plan:

Whenever data does not match anecdotes, usually the anecdotes are right and the data is measured wrong. For UX people this happens a lot, and in game development doubly so, with the example below containing a clear explanation of this issue. Maybe @hankgreen.bsky.social can nail this down better?

Nightbitch 2: Bitch of the Night

I love Twilight Princess and its specific 00s vibe. It's the first Zelda I got to fall in love with. That being said, I'm playing it again in 2026 and I think a lot of the critics were onto something. I definitely played this before my ADHD got really bad because I'm having to be so patient rn.

Hey thanks! Now all I need is for you to explain what on god's green earth you mean

The "Dr F*****” bit in Nirvanna The Band The Show The Movie but it's me watching Avenue Q with an audience in 2026

the inventor of cutlery really ate with that

I used to be so smug about "not really getting hayfever" and I deserve everything I'm experiencing right now

I always think it but never say it, and I should: @dominictarason.com is one of the best accounts on here. I have found so many good titles through him, almost every single day. If you want insight into the most interesting stuff going on in the indie scene I can't recommend following him enough.

The second big update just landed for Echo Point Nova - one of 2024's FPS games. And got even better with a free expansion in 2025. And now it has a New Game Plus mode and more kind of movement shenanigans! Also has a great editor & Steam Workshop integration.

democrats worry that impeaching a president who is widely disliked and on the other team it will hurt their chances in the mid terms

idk it didn’t go well in the software engineering situ

I appreciate it's the result of a lot interference from up top throughout its messy production but I do still think that DA Veilguard's art style is, like, the biggest factor in it not doing well. Every time I see that bright purple box art I cannot connect it to the rest of the series at all.

Taken myself to see The Drama. It's an empty screening so I'm not being bad for using my phone, but boy oh boy this was not what I thought this film was going to be about. ”Drama” is not a strong enough word for this if you ask me!!

I spent some of this week making an I/O system for level scripting in Unreal for @sleightofhand.game! I have long had thoughts on why these kick ass. Here's an unusually long blog post on: -why these kick ass -why they are necessary -how mine works -etc etc www.joewintergreen.com/i-o-systems-...

Married at First Sight Australia makes it seem like Adelaide is populated by a few hundred people tops.

Hi

it is inarguable at this point that there will be not one day of peace not one second of returning to any workable international status quo until israel is disarmed entirely

Israel is committed to ensuring that no one could reasonably make a deal with them under any circumstances because they are incapable of honouring them. Netanyahu is literally addicted to cruelty and harm.

Putting aside Sam Altman just continuing to emit huge lies constantly, this is an amazing example of what I mean when I talk about how GenAI is replacing *extremely low energy* digital tasks with *WAY WAY HIGHER ENERGY* replacements that *do not even work* Why TF is anyone using ChatGPT as a timer!

Dev Dive has now finished its first full phase on the new channel! One of the best runs of interviews I've done. Thanks to @aerialknight.com @marklacroix.bsky.social @kmikeym.com @futterish.fsquared.biz @santaragione.com @adamatomic.bsky.social @skunkapegames.com for joining me on the show!

If someone pretends to punch you in the face but holds back at the last second it is not your fault for experiencing the adrenaline of getting punched.

I am here for messaging that the THREAT alone - regardless of if it's carried out or walked back - should end his presidency. The die is already cast. You cannot wield the power that man has and say that kind of shit.

You have more in common with the people of Iran than you do with anyone in this administration, any member of the technocracy, anyone who is profiting from this war, or any billionaire. When you see Iranians forming human chains outside key infrastructure sites, you should feel a sense of kinship.

If we let this slide, if there aren't eventual prosecutions and real jail time and structural changes, the door is open for the next group of people who aren't pussies and will do it.

I think one of the most important characteristics of this moment is how people in general would rather allow things to get worse before their eyes than risk overreacting and feeling a bit embarrassed.

Something they never tell you about making satirical art is it makes reality more enervating and depressing, because even if you drop all subtlety and make big absurdist swings the real world you're satirizing will repeatedly either match or outdo your most absolutely hamfisted hack jokes.
