Just heard re: some ICE agents who raided a Chicago taqueria, then went back to the same taqueria for lunch the following week and got confused when the owner kicked them out, and I realized "jesus these doofuses really do believe we're all living in a video game where the NPCs have no memory"

The comedian I saw tonight picked an audience member who said he worked for ChatGPT, and the crowd booed him, and then the comedian gave him shit for it repeatedly. Which is kind of an interesting sign of the times.

oh you like pulp adventure? you mean whitesploitation?

Oh my

Clinton chuckled. “You mean the Chaos Emeralds?”

In other news: I'm getting much better at part painting. For context: The only portion of this part that isn't painted is the flat portion with the circle at the top. Tubes and shaft painted. And I managed to mix a really close approximation grey by just yolo-ing paints together.

*throws everything off my desk* ITS ALL DAD YAOI…the chase, the setup, the ultimate will they won’t they… They feed you lies about crime and heists to distract you

I am willing to bet literally hundreds of dollars that if you got a Homeworld 3 dev in a room and they could say anything, they'd say, "Oh it's cause they tried to make it a live service game"

UNFORTUNATE/REGRET WE DON'T/DO RECOMMEND MALICIOUS PROGRAM/EPIC GAMESTORE/BUG REPORT

Control Alas, looks like in just gonna have to restart the AWE dlc minus all the progress I made in Foundation. Alas. Let the record show: The Epic Game Store's cloud sync is trash. Unlike steam, you cannot roll back through several layers of save history.

god please let this be an avenue worth pursuing

Rabbi here. The West Bank is absolutely occupied, in violation of the Fourth Geneva Convention of 1949, reaffirmed from the Fourth Hague Convention of 1907, Article 42. It would be helpful if people who didn't know what they were talking about didn't open their uninformed mouths.

NGL, scammers knowing who Lois McMaster Bujold is (while every friend I breathlessly recommend her books to has never heard of her) is slightly amusing.

I hung out with Lois yesterday and we talked about these things. She is NEVER involved in ANYTHING like this. If you get a message or a social media DM claiming to be her, IT NEVER IS.

Antisemitism is a lot like Qanon child abuse conspiracies in that there’s this real and bad phenomenon and, parallel to that, what can only be described as a large scale mass psychosis about a mostly fictional version of the same phenomenon

evil fucking company purely in its business practices. all my homies hate adobe

Cool. Control crashed and corrupted my save. The epic games launcher's cloud sync uploaded the new save and they don't appear to have a way to download old saves like steam. Sigh......... I was half way through the Alan Wake dlc... And don't particularly want to start it from scratch...

Remember the recent middle-of-the-night apartment building raid where children were dragged outside naked & zip-tied in the street while black & Latino residents were _sorted by race_ and piled into separate vans while their apartments were ransacked & robbed? That raid? So it resulted in 0 arrests.

love my nephew but his birthday is really cutting into my Noah Caldwell Gervais Alan wake video viewing time

You heard it here, folks. Buy my book kaitave.itch.io/lancer-npcs-...

Since I've been seeing this meme format around for other things, I thought I'd post this one again. #LancerRPG

This is why AI is so dangerous Financial institutions will use it to scrape the web to discriminate against you — yes, YOU — and debank you Today, it’s for being an adult VA Tomorrow, for being trans? Gay?

And this is why it's so ridiculous and ultimately harmfl to call it a "male" lonliness epidemic- it's not just men. American culture has been slowly isolating its citizens from each other in bubbles of crime paranoia, political extremism, and general anxiety.

The Israeli genocide continues as expected: with all infrastructure brutally and intentionally destroyed, Palestinians in Gaza are dying from Israel's continued blockade on aid, Israel's continued land theft, and Israel's continued murdering. www.aljazeera.com/news/2025/11...

I know im Kurosawa posting a lot right now but this is insane. Man gleefully describing shooting one of japans most beloved actors with actual arrows

The universal decision by streaming services to not allow people to take screenshots or videos on their apps was such a stupid decision

I always think I'm a prison abolitionist and then I see shit like this

It’s useful for people of my generation to be reminded that this wasn’t that long ago. Ruby Bridges isn’t just still alive—she’s only 71, not ancient!

oh my, an amazingly kind 5 star review for my novel THE LONG SHOT is up on amazon! If that sounds good, and it sure sounds good to me, check The Long Shot! www.amazon.com/Long-Shot-Dr...

It's the least bad part of all of this, but these guys really ARE all 12. Operation Enduring Freedom was cringe enough, but now our government is out there doing shit out of one of the less good Call of Duty games. Reddit occupied government

dick so rancid it leads to impeachment of two presidents (crossing my fingers)

if i gotta see one more lib post going after the republicans for their hypocrisy re: epstein i will go crazy. they're not being hypocritical they're finally being honest. the sexualisation and exploitation of young women and girls is absolutely accepted as normal in our culture

..... That's not lobbying. That's bribery and the fact that our media won't say it is a serious problem.

THE ICE IS GONNA BREAK

grungler cultural victory keeps happening

"oh cause it's a cult"

Shohreh Aghdashloo should play Simon Illyan in a Vorkosigan Saga adaptation no, no i'm right, don't argue

If a metroid game had Samus be unable to string two words together when she's talking to a girl, it would sell 50,000,000,000 copies

Also, I have to say, it's a little funny seeing takes which are basically "western audiences in particular only see Samus through the lens of badass violence rather than emotional expressiveness" and then see 1000000 pieces of "Samus Aran as a lesbian failgirl" fanart every week on the ol' timeline

Now is this because SA-X is derived from the X-Parasite, which it turns out the Metroids were originally engineered to hunt and destroy, or is it a combination of that and the fact that it's mimicking Samus Aran, the galaxy's greatest hunter of Metroids? Both?

Point the second is treated as a big "how could they do this?" moment, Samus isn't exactly elated to see that Metroids aren't as dead as everyone thought, but more importantly SA-X goes absolutely fucking apeshit when it finds them, to the point of blowing up a chunk of the station over it

Fusion is kind of funny because it has two big shocking moments in the game: 1). SA-X, an alien duplicate of Samus which is basically her minus her "human side," who spends the game hunting you like a Terminator 2). The Federation is cloning Metroids, whoops

This genuinely *infuriates* me to compare the idea that being banned or suspended from a website equals being disappeared, especially in this political climate. No, it fucking isn't at all, and doing that kind of comparison is genuinely utterly fucking shameless to even say or suggest.
