Due to the imprecise manufacturing methods used to produce officially licensed 1989 Princess Peach cake toppers, a majority of the figurines suffer from eye misalignment in various degrees of severity.

“I only use ChatGPT to—“ Silence. All use is unethical. It’s trained on stolen works and ruining the environment.

Time has changed

"ChatGPT is great for brainstorming!" Actually we have a tool for that already! It's called thinking. We use our brain. It's called brainstorming! Clue is in the name.

Newgrounds' approach to verifying age is interesting and transparent.

"I asked grok" "I asked- *a scary ogre runs past* holy shit what was that

Apparently the UK adult verification thing has basically banned blind people from half of the internet because they can't use the verification system 🫣

chat my laptop battery killed itself

Steam and itch.io have removed thousands of video games in recent weeks deemed to be "adult content" in order to comply with strict rules from payment processors like Mastercard. These policies censor artists engaged in lawful speech. Mastercard shouldn't be the gatekeepers of our digital freedom.

dawg wtf wrong with my copy of deltarune

In our praise for Wikipedia this morning, let's not brain rot ourselves with '90s nostalgia. '90s internet culture was FULL of economic incentives, venture capitalist, investors. It's the era that gave Marc Andreessen the formidable economic power he now has, ffs. These things exist side by side

my first mastapiece :3

been haunted by this for weeks now

This is an insane thing to write about game development. www.nytimes.com/2025/07/28/a...

peopel who listen to jamie paige are called Jamers

In Super Mario 64 DS, by alternating pressing Y+Up/Down/nothing/Down/nothing every 5 frames, Mario can vibrate up every slope in the game.

The Itch/Steam thing dropped off the trending tab. Therefore it's time to remind you again to swamp the payment processors with more calls. If the call volume dies down in under a week they aren't going to learn their lesson. Make them regret it.

it's so funny seeing people go like "oh i can't play undertale or deltarune i'm no good at bullet hell" bro you get better at it by playing them that's like the whole deal

In NES games, Luigi is at an unfair disadvantage since he cannot pause the game. While this might be self-evident to Japanese players, international players might find this handicap baffling. The reason is the Famicom's lack of Start and Select buttons on the second controller.

The movement Donkey Kong Bananza is insane

Hello. It's almost been 10 years since UNDERTALE released. Now, I'm looking for your memories. Let's turn back together. Face the flower and speak. memories.undertale.com

visa and mastercard deciding what games are allowed to be sold is an apocalyptic level threat to the games industry. phone calls are the highest impact way to help. this is an all hands on deck situation. the enemy got results with 1000 phone calls. we can beat them phone numbers and a script:

So bsky took away my ability to DM and see NSFW today due to UK laws requiring a PHOTO ID Its a long shot but we've already got half the signitures we need in just 2 weeks so please sign If your not from the UK then please pass this on to any friends who are petition.parliament.uk/petitions/72...

have you ever noticed that ralsei spelled backwards is deltarune

the thing about mastercard & the UK age verification is we can all see the immediate effects of 18+ censorship include suppressing/banning all lgbt+ content from places like reddit & itch just like we said it would, and the people who didnt listen are the same who're not paying any attention now

they breached that tea app already and everyone's uploaded and verified IDs are getting posted all over the place. already seen a map logging addresses of users. please don't send your information to meme apps. might as well be honeypots for all the security they're gonna employ

as we enter into a new era of internet censorship, it is your solemn duty to break the egg prime directive. do it constantly. tell everyone. tell them again. tell them about estrogen and about T. I made it to my mid-teens before I even knew what transition was. let’s not go back to that.

I sure enjoy that there are multiple different services being used to verify my age, that I can’t just hand over my data to a single service but that I have to repeatedly reverify for every tom, dick and discord that asks this was, typically for the british government, astonishingly poorly executed

If you're from the UK or know someone from there, I am BEGGING you: Sign this petition to repeal the online safety Act!!! Pass this on to ANY UK account on this app, twitter, discord, ANYWHERE! petition.parliament.uk/petitions/72...

SIGN THIS PETITION, IT SCREWS OVER SEX WORKERS ONLINE AND NSFW ACCOUNTS IN THE UK, NOT EVERYONE HAS A BANK CARD, NOT EVERYONE HAS ID, AND FACE SCANS NOTORIOUSLY HAVE ISSUES WITH BLACK PEOPLE, PROTECT SEX WORKERS NOW Petition: Repeal the Online Safety Act petition.parliament.uk/petitions/72...

If the "online safety act" thing passes here in the UK, I will not be verifying jack shit. I am not going to potentially compromise my safety by submitting my ID. NO to surveillance states.

petition.parliament.uk/petitions/72... Let's help our UK friends by spreading this! It's a parents job to protect their kids, not the government or anyone else! This is a trojan horse meant to harm everyone. Repeal the online safety act.

I've written about how Steam's ambiguous new "adult content" rules will likely hurt LGBTQ creators, and why the awful UK Online Safety Act might be the cause. kotaku.com/steam-valve-...

hand to my fucking heart this is not edited. what a sight but also, keep those numbers going, anglos!!!!!!!!!

Ah, the UK "online safety act" which forces you to do pretty much the least safe thing you can possibly do online - hand your ID over to third-parties.

Just seen the UK online safety act is fucking up tons of website that don’t have tech giant capacities… Those websites now most of the time have to block UK IP adresses… Time to get a VPN I guess 🫠 I knew living in the UK would come with bullshitery but fuck off old white lords.

The UK Online Safety Act taking effect reminds me that Keir Starmer heard the story of the horrific, transphobic murder of Brianna Ghey, and the only part that he found truly upsetting, felt something must be done to stop it happening again, was Brianna having access to online support communities.

Interesting stuff. A chart of UK based Google searches. The blue line is searches in the last 7 days for "VPN", the red "Age Verification". So the Online Safety Act 2023 is achieving it's aim of keeping people safe then 🙄

Hello. If you are a UK Resident, please sign this petition to repeal the online safety act. Not only is this harming a lot of people's livelihoods this act is also a Trojan horse for worse things down the line. I have lost access to 90% of discord today and tomorrow it will be bluesky.

reddit is censoring lgbt+ content in the uk bcos of the 'online safety act' exactly what we said would happen @lgbtfdn.bsky.social, @stonewalluk.bsky.social, they censoring you lgb folks too do you care now or do you still think having a nice sandwich and a cocktail with starmer is a good idea?

the UK's online safety act enforces heavy and unrealistic requirements for anyone running a website that people can communicate on, including those run outside the UK do you think the web was better when smaller hobbyist forums were more widespread? well, **this act effectively kills them all**

The UK Online Safety Act has to be one of the worst, most ill-considered ideas we've put forward in a fair while. The reasons it is ridiculous are plentiful and exceptionally easy to establish. Considering safety is in the name, it is grossly unsafe.

This age verification nonsense is undoubtedly going to be used to suppress LGBTQ+ content, regardless of its intended age. Some sites (like reddit) already classify LGBTQ+ as adult, so be prepared for resources intended for kids who might be questioning their gender/sexuality to be inaccessible
