People forget that Biden told voters "don't vote for me if you believe Tara Reade" on TV.

I'm sorry I'm sorry, but The Bitchuation Room is maybe the worst name for a podcast I've ever seen in my life.

This is one of the most impt vidoes of onlime

It's absolutely insane to me that people are considering post-Covid writing as "heritage" or "foundational" foundational tumblr. It's like declaring Homestuck "lost media" or something, a complete disconnect from the linear progression of time.

Many of yall

Happy birthday to Bill Watterson, the creator of Calvin and Hobbes! Born on July 5, 1958.

There was a nationally televised broadcast debate between Trump & Biden and Biden was so audibly and visibly confused and slurring his speech and giving meandering & rambling answers, so much so that Trump turned to the moderators and basically said "should we be doing this?" like it was NATIONAL TV

Core memories of using the precursor internet of like 2004 at my neighbor's house and finding 8-Bit Theater and experiencing laughter like I'd never experienced before in my life. We laughed until I was dizzy and nauseous and shrieked the punchlines back and forth at one another until we turned red.

Elden Ring is gonna make a bazillion dollars and we'll be complaining about Souls-likes ruining movies like Marvel for all of the 2030's

A downside of the Dirtbag Left Podcast-O-Sphere is that if someone penetrates the zone that you don't like it means that you'll have to skip all your podcasts for a week while they make the rounds

Self-Reporting that your vibes suck shit

Actors should take ownership of characters IDGAF I love when someone really cares about the art they are making, he is real because the actor is really engaging with them psychologically and emotionally. This is how you get work that can push through normal barriers to speak truth from the heart.

It's difficult to quantify not just how stupid this is, but also how insulting it is, so instead I just wanna tag @sphynxian.bsky.social and say that it was art and writing like yours that made this game so important special and that Tim Sweeney has the creative juice of a can of bad tuna.

This makes it, roughly, like the 20th best selling video game of all time.

When I started seeing kids (like 14-15-16) referring to themselves as "Poly-Fans" or "Poly-Fandom" I realized that the fundamental concept of "enjoying something" had become a foundational component of identity vs the frosting one finds on the cake of life I realized we had made a mistake.

Incredible moment where Fox News puts up a graphic with all the reasons it opposes the DSA and why people should be afraid of them

Got wistful and looked up some old friends from before covid and... they're exactly the same? Doing the same things in the same places with the same people? A decade later?

I'm not trying to do gender politics or telling anyone how to feel but if I was a woman in journalism and had to fight tooth & claw to get where I got to while fighting institutional sexism the whole time, this lady visibly sleeping her way to scoops & book deals would have me looking up "Body Bags"

All the Right Things

games have been huge success. thats why we're firing every one who makes games. also we are going to make it so players can no longer buy games

witnessing the birth of a new all timer post is such a beautiful thing

Periodically taking breaks from the death grip Pokopia has on me to clean my own room and feed myself because it feels weird to treat my Squirtle than I treat myself.

Hmmm I wonder what happened in March of 2019 that could have possibly disrupted the economic development and momentum of the previous decade hmm

We had a really mean python at work and I gave him back to his owner and was like “he was trying to kill me” and his owner said “well, he only has so many ways to interact with the world. All he has is a face” and it Moved Me

The most insane bag fumblers of any medium in any generation.

He also won't fucking bathe or clean his room, who the fuck on planet earth cares what this sludge is doing?

The massive Xbox layoffs won't happen until after the fiscal year ends, but the company is already ending contracts and cutting vendors. So Assembly, Xbox's main PR agency, is laying people off today.

I think something that becomes more obvious each day is that the clandestine, secretive way games are made and produced (compared to film & Tv where it's really common and accessible knowledge) has lead to this moment where anyone can say anything and we all have to shrug and go "I guess?? Maybe?".

That's great news because I do not intend to buy a new console at any point in the next 5-10 years. I have a fresh Switch 2 and a weak PC, the launch PS5 I've had since COVID is probably gonna have to carry me through all of next gen, no way I'm gonna shell out $1,000 to play a Naughty Dog game.

if a person is sentenced to 100 years in prison for being anti fascist in america then america is a fascist country

i went back in time to try and kill a victorian child by having him taste hidden valley ranch bugles. but instead he showed me that they have a letter F that makes an S sound and i fainted

This is quite literally the website designed by Candace Owens, a social network designed for people on the left to dox bullies, leftistly, and she was so roundly harangued for her terrible stupid idea that she giga-flipped out and became the conservative shit mouth she is today.

You sneak into my office and see a ship in a bottle. Looking closer, you see tiny crewmembers screaming for help. I'm suddenly behind you.

a great dissection of why a lot of fandom drama doesn't only boil down to "these people are thinking too much about [insert series here] and need to touch grass." there's another layer to the way folks get obsessed (for parasocial/self-important rewriting/clout reasons, etc) that gets glossed over

Is Supernatural the Patient Zero here? We just... DID NOT do this type of shit before the internet, you couldn't be this invested in fiction before chats and IRCs existed. It's different than the tiny toons thing because it's not strictly horny but like emotionally invested in the lore. MYLP??

Trying to come up with someone less like Trump while still being an Old White Man and coming up quite empty.

A lot of millennials had combo DVD/TVs in the early 00's and it was very common to just leave a movie (Scarface, Fight Club, Zoolander) just going on that TV constantly at different volumes. I had Fight Club, The Crow, and Boondock Saints on heavy rotation for years, I've probably seen each film 50x

Extraordinary detail in the new book on Trump's second term administration

Caged Divinity

"When you have a choice between two politicians, you should vote for the one who is offering less material support for you." is such a decrepit position. You can't phrase it in a way that makes sense.
