what I saw / what I drew

Ethan Winters is the guy who says "this is the worst part" before he pulls out the pizza from the oven bare handed

Rule number one of being incredibly lazy at work is that if you find a way to automate your tasks you never say that in a place your boss can see or hear which is why, even by their own terms, people that won't shut up about LLM coding are dumb as rocks. "Yeah, that was all me man" is what you say.

DOCTOR: Looks great! Anything else? ME: Yeah, can I get the government printout detailing the hidden flaw they identified in me at birth? DOCTOR: Sorry, I don’t know what you’re talking about. ME: No worries, had to try. DOCTOR: Of course. I’m hoping to see my own form someday.

I BETTER SEE THIS SHIGERU MIYAMOTO QUOTE ALONGSIDE HIS OTHER FAMOUS ONES

this is how multiplayer games treat your data while demanding you install kernel level secureboot rootkits to ‘prevent cheating’ lol

Literally every modern political problem

if they made the matrix today there'd be a third pill that increases your magic resistance by 15% that seems weak at first but levels into some pretty crazy builds by the fourth zone.

More wok i did for Where the Water Tastes like Wine. 2015-2018

so much of tech innovation is trying to repackage blatantly abhorrent ideas into forms you don't think so hard about

video games used to be about exploring and then escaping a base - discovering its dark secret, fighting extraordinary foes, and maybe making a few friends along the way…..

Bro, ICE is still here kidnapping people, now they’ve even got transit vans advertising fake companies.

It is true that he has absolutely no real views whatsoever but that's actually really helpful in this situation, because you should take it as a clear sign and a win if someone with no beliefs feels the wind is blowing in your direction.

looking at the GDC talks for this year and this kinda sums it up, huh

Abolish ICE has a +11 approval — which means it is *32 points* more popular than Donald Trump Ask yourself: does corporate media portray that accurately?

It seems nonsensical until you realize that they are no longer interested in maintaining a façade that they care about tradition. They don't like how things are and they'd rather they be some other way. Nothing has to cohere; it just has to reject the purported status quo. They're proud to be wrong.

An unfortunate effect of Concord imploding so badly is it made people online even more excited and hopeful that games they're not interested in crash and burn. It took very little time after Highguard's first announcement for me to find the way people were talking about it very uncomfortable.

If you come at us you better come correct

A boom-or-bust game industry is partially to blame, but a company not preparing any runway to pay employees for at least six months outside of an infamously capricious Tencent has to take some of the blame here.

1908: the Lancet, one of the most respected scientific journals, calls for 18 age limit on reading in bed amidst a moral panic surrounding children becoming "addicted" to novels, which were "designed to keep kids hooked" and destroy their attention/mental health

Nui P does the DLC #LiesOfPOverture

"At one end, the glasses are marketed as an everyday assistant – a voice in the frame that tells you what you are seeing. At the other end, people in Nairobi sit annotating the most intimate moments the camera captures: open-plan offices, living rooms, bedrooms, bathrooms."

After detaining children and parents for weeks, or months, inside Dilley detention center, ICE is dumping them at a shelter in Laredo, TX. They are often thousands of miles away from where they were arrested, with no money to get back home. THREAD (1/) www.themarshallproject.org/2026/03/02/i...

"AI" is a program of rooting out every little tiny bit of light in your life and extinguishing it bsky.app/profile/wsst...

Every professional translator I know has the same position on this and can easily explain the reasons for it when asked. The fact that executives don't even bother to ask and force translators to work on AI/MTL slop regardless makes it clear where their priorities lie: money trumps quality.

84% of the time, “ChatGPT Health” killed a customer using their paid service as advertised

I do think that Trump is something of the American Caesar as embodiment of the populace in the sense that he's a lot like what I imagine a lot of Americans would be like with the shackles off. Can't read, can't find Iran on a map, likes explosions, fully accepting of the image subsuming the real.

Remember what I said about how, when Trump is flailing, they start inserting a fake, fictional Trump into their stories, who is acting rationally and sanely?

The NYT style guide

nobody asked for this game but I'm making it anyway 👍🚄

Video games often have floating platforms, but they don’t explain why the platforms are floating. That’s where game writers come in, to say that platforms are kept aloft by “ghostium” an invisible fog created by the souls of every dead person

Israel's systematic attempts to kill the entire Iranian opposition leadership in Iran is indicative of what (some) of us have been saying— Israel doesn't not want to turn the IRI into a democratic republican state, it wants there to be no state. It wants a rubble-state, Gaza or Yemen or worse.

Legendary video game with fantastic boss themes (apparently the composers' first game soundtrack, too?)

If America still had the rule of law, this would be the easiest prosecution ever, but we all know absolutely nothing will happen.

the mild manners are job security, baby www.noncanon.com/comics/2026-...

And you know, you can extend from this to a real important corallary to "Everyone is 12 Now" theory is "There has been a generation-long project to keep people 12." Conservative news and opinon outlets, regressive mass audience entertainment products, etc. all propagandize a chilidish worldview.

Been a while since I've banged this drum, but: Cancel your fucking game pass subscription

things every single republican president of your lifetime has done - started a war in the middle east - completely destroyed the economy

The first deaths announced from the US-Israeli strikes on Iran: dozens of school girls. They hit an elementary school in Hormozgan.

what a crazy night for sam altman to be like "yeah we got that dept of war deal, and there's no moral concerns here"

the united states government's almost pathological framing of their violence as liberation is so ghoulish. illegal, deadly, evil airstrikes, a senseless war announced in the middle of the night, and still the framing is "liberation". it's sickening

ICE bad and also, around half of people killed by police have a disability. Their final moments are usually spent in frantic terror trying to "comply" with commands before cops shoot. Not opening a door or answering a question fast enough in this country can be a death sentence.

new gorillaz day mostly an excuse to revisit the greatest tweet ever made

"This target audience is 'content lovers'" is so dystopian. Holy crap.

Not that you give a fuck but here He Is

The truth is not the average of a fact and a lie.
