I think I'll start scribbling down *on paper* ✍️ my thoughts on books and games I olay, to get better at expressing my thoughts beyond the confused networks of my mind... That and I doubt my opinions even warrant attention in this day and age of slop and hyper-competitivity.

And please, PLEASE let us not forget that time in 2023 when Karen Smith was elected President of the school board in Bucks County, Pa and swore her oath on a stack of banned books. The most gangsta oath ever! Just brilliant. www.edweek.org/leadership/t...

Part of me yearns to play more games I never touched. Another yearns for older games to revisit. I want to read more of my books. But I also want to get out there and train more. Rebirth is hard, fellas. But I'll manage. I guess.

i think its bc its late and im being too hard on myself but i Cannot stop thinking about how i need to be creating things while also being afraid to a paralyzing degree of not being good enough at anything to be creating things

A message for you all to carry through the year

It was an unexpected feeling to be able to play a childhood game like Kingdom Hearts and hear that my commentary about how life changes made you cry.

They gentrified the tinfoil hat

J'ai ri fort.

I was thinking that I didn't really have art that represented my 2025 very well. But I was mistaken! #art #fanart #mhwilds

powerscalers fascinate the hell out of me. how did half a million people get interested in a video title just going "this guy is SOOO STRONG."

Might start posting in French only... 🤔 I dunno. Might need to rethink my social media usage, not just time wise... I also need to get a doctor's appointment. Need me some anti-depressants.

Après ce qu'a été 2025, je nous souhaite une année plate. Tsé, une année où y se passe pas grand chose, où tu fais tes p'tites affaires. Une année de sérénité et de douceurs quotidiennes, de santé et de bonheur tranquille.

I decided to make a Dr. Pepper design in Kirby Air Riders, because it's my by-far favorite soda and this is one of my favorite games of all time :P I uploaded this design to the Machine Market a few hours ago, and it's already gotten the most sales of any of my machines #KirbyAirRiders #MyMachine

I left home at 9:30am for a less-than-six-hour-long drive... We arrived past 7pm because of the tire issue and a lot of careful going and stopping to test said re-inflated tire. To a merrier, less obnoxious year 🫩 🥂

Bunnit #Xenoblade #art

Was I wrong? :o Maybe I don't have anything to worry about after all and things can carry on as usual 🤔 I still can't be 100% sure; I'll know for sure tomorrow when I either do or don't get a "give us your ID" prompt 🤷‍♀️ Even if I don't, there's a chance the appeal fails and it happens later anyway

Drew a lot for 2025! Happy to keep going and improve further! #art #xenoblade

Tire broke down over an hour away from home, over four hours from our destination. No garage is open. No air compressor either. And my own old car home refuses to start since I didn't use it in two weeks and it was chilly. Fuck you 2025. Fuck you through to the end.

Happy New Year’s Eve/ Day! 🎇💕

Here's my piece! It's the best thing I've ever drawn by far! #segaxcapcomzine

C'est la première fois que je fais le front page de la Gazette. Merci Aislin! 🤗 #ifeelseen

The Universal app wouldn't accept any of the variations of my name I tried to change my player name to for the Nintendo World interactive stuff but it accepted this???? Nintendo what does this mean.

We hurt others, we lie to ourselves, we hate, we blame others, we regret, but, even if we are weak, and even if it is our fate to disappear entirely. I think the will to change the future is still an important one.

What was your biggest impact on the internet? For like 7 months in 2019, I was quoted at the top of TV Tropes' page for Sonic 06. Can't think of a higher honor than that.

It might be the Brit usual sass that I love, but CandyEvie's recent videos, doubly so the "Gosh I miss genwunner discourse" comment, hits... kinda home with how I feel not just about Pokemon communities, but... every single one: youtu.be/snH3q9GddSw?...

I have none. I am an online nobody. Instead, I make students rediscover reading and art in a new perspective, make some read their very first book fully or instead entice others to care for other forms of art. I am an Internet nobody; I am an offline somebody.

Before Digital Circus, before the Spamton fandubs, I made a bunch of Top Ten videos on YouTube that introduced a lot of people to niche video games like Shadow of the Colossus and No More Heroes, and old TV shows like Twin Peaks.

I suppose this is how people feel with programming languages that are industry-standard that everyone hates Everyone hates it, but veterans have spent years using it, so that's what they recommend, so it's a cycle of getting used to garbage, like an outdated tradition that sorely needs to change

So tired of "the picture trademark" from xenoblade 3 being used as proof that Rex has a fucking "harem", there's a boat load of evidence that Nia and Aegis are also into each other geez Treat polyamory with respect instead of just going "harem LOL" please I beg you

I'll be on the road tomorrow, back to my birthplace from which work technically exiled me from... It feels almost hollow and alien. Since it was clear I'd never go back, it's as if I lost friendships when I moved in a house here. Anchorless. Homeless. Identityless.

But the world continues to reveal itself as a deeply alien place. A place full of people that suck. I don't care about what games they play anymore, but I still can't help but feel their shallowness suffocate me.

This site has way too many Americans with their stupid problems and way too few of everyone else. It's so stale.

I'm at almost 10 followers to vgen! all I need is two more commissioners within the month to get verified HIIII

Je cherche des caricaturistes sur BS pour une nouvelle liste. Des suggestions? Searching for political cartoonists on BlueSky for a new list. Any suggestions?

I think life is absurd. I think the people who don't believe that, are the people who got a bit too drunk on life and it's various pleasures. And it's delusional. But I also do think life, the world should be witnessed. And there's many people too drunk on absurdity to see any of it. You can be both

Is there a word for nostalgia you feel for a place you've never been to?

¯\_(ツ)_/¯

j'emmerde tellement le chauffeur du chasse-neige. Grosse charrue.

Having my brother criticize the very existence of philosophy classes as mandatory in higher education shows how he is a paradoxically highly-pedagogic and anti-society teacher... The act of critically reflecting on society is essential for citizens, why cut it all down?

😂

I am very happy we keep getting science focused manga and anime. This is Ruri Rocks and Isakay Doctor, both really interesting. I grew up with a lot of really cool science books and I would have loved those so much. If they can inspire a single person to persue science, then they are so worth it.

And the final one from @chuggaaconroy.bsky.social 's video : Giratina ! I distorted the background in a similar way as Giratina bends the pillars back in Platinum, though in hindsight, it would have been cool to see inverted colors to represent the distortion world

New Pokemon Snap is, at times, a very soothing adventure... At other times, it is a very silly trek through a wild world:

Les deux jeunes passionnés de politique participent à la 76e législature du Parlement jeunesse à Québec. Âgés de 19 ans, ils y vivent depuis vendredi une simulation parlementaire non partisane inspirée du fonctionnement de l’Assemblée nationale. | #Abitibi #Témiscamingue #assnat #polqc

I've played both Fire Emblem Warriors games, Age of Calamity, and now I'm playing Age of Imprisonment and it's honestly really cool how different these games all feel from each other considering how basic the core gameplay is.

Enjoyed my time wathing Apocalypse Hotel. Tho I find it funny, with all the AI talk, how depressing this posibility is: Instead of humanity being forgotten, it ends up being remembered... by a android and a roomba, and they don't even particuraly care for much except for neat floors and tidy beds.

happy holidays sketches for the bird app folks too! 😌🎄🤍 #VanSketch
