4chan always sucked but my point of comparison is to ask you by the year 2007 what episodes of south park had already aired, as a barometer for General Edginess Of Aughts Culture

There was an audible collective “aaaaw” when Hinao lost, but people still cheered and clapped for Xiaohai. Please don’t be fooled by chronically online narratives about how Mai ruined the whole experience or people didn’t respect the winner. CB was amazing. I was there.

Goblin/Verdan gal up for grabs too! £100 give me a holler if ya wanna nab em

rolling up a newspaper and whapping fandom across the nose until it stops being like this

Speaking of game feel, I think opposed rolls for fighting just *feel* right. If I did a proper full revamp of the HWI system I'd implement that (but won't for the current iteration)

A PhD student at Stanford noticed her classmates were asking Al to write their breakup texts. So she ran a study. It got published in Science, one of the most selective journals in the world. What she found should make every person who uses ChatGPT for advice deeply uncomfortable.

writing a gay scene between an immortal mech consciousness and an immortal soldier on a battlefield just to feel something

Goombas got dakka!!!

A British couple traveled to China and complimented the Northeastern regional cuisine, comparing it to British food. Chinese Internet:

F'lah, what if we kissed on top of the silt strider... Fusozay, it's not like I even like you, S'WIT

doodling the barmaid again. ruder this time.

Cawthon’s fans have said some of the most vile shit to me for daring to point this out. They blame me for “driving him away” when in reality he just didn’t want to stand by his own harmful actions, and they *are* harmful. Present tense.

First of all, people always ask 'Sagat, why you leave Shadaloo? Why you no longer ride with M. Bison?’ And I tell them the same thing every time, man. Because eventually you get tired of taking dragon punches for a billionaire in shoulder pads who thinks dental coverage is a substitute for salary.

accidentally ordered tokusatsu instead of tonkatsu at this restaurant and now this guy won't stop doing stunts. The waiter can't even take him back because whenever he tries the guy strikes a pose and a bunch of explosions go off behind him

My Cassiopeia Redesign but its an updated 2026 Edition Also Happy Snake Lady SUNDAY

Posted a GoFundMe to cover my mum's funeral costs and it funded within a day, thanks to @failnaut.bsky.social spreading the word. Thank you folks

I spend a lot of money in hobby gaming not because I think I, myself, will *play* everything that comes across my doorstep, but because the community all hangs from a verrrrry tenuous set of financials. (I have seen dev balance sheets that would harrow up thy soul, freeze thy young blood...)

"girl games" folder but it just has guilty gear, bloodborne, slay the spire, metal gear solid and doom.

Peak character design and it’s just a caped frog with a staff. 🐸

Happy Transgender Day of Visibility!!! 🏳️‍⚧️🔪

It's just how it works folks.

… seeing the shit Gooseworks is going through is mortifying. How are you not embarrassed, treating an artist like this? Would your loved ones be proud, seeing you make demands of her like a spoiled brat? For context, as part of an ongoing litany of fandom-related abuse, the Brazilian dub…

Incredibly disheartening to see people watch gooseworx emotionally detach and check out from her own creation and people responding with "you owe me, as a fan, to keep caring about the show and being invested in community management and the business side of things. it's the responsible thing"

This headline is fuel for the right-wing anti-migrant reaction machine, but the article reveals the employer knowingly brought her to the UK under a visitor visa to employ her, then denied her a work permit—and most importantly!—refused to pay her any wages. This looks approximate to modern slavery

The Mechanicus II soundtrack is out and it's not so much sending me as ascending me

their father hangs his head, finally realizing the podcaster who accosted him on the street all those years ago didnt mess up the bit when he shouted "THOT SON OR GAY DAUGHTER" but was in fact weaving a strange curse upon his bloodline

Thought it'd be fun to do that trend, but with Monster Zelda.

I feel people aren't actually reading this. They're not making porn legal , they're reverting to before a few weeks ago, where adult "adjacent" content was allowed, but stripe can and will still target you and shut down your campaign. NSFW is still not explicitly allowed.

And that is why no one in the nordics ever has to hand it to Sweden

BREAKING: The House of Representatives just voted to require teachers to forcibly out transgender youth against their will. Censoring "gender ideology" does nothing to advance the basic promise that every child deserves the same opportunity to thrive, and that includes transgender students.

This is why we can't have nice things. People are fucking terrible and destroy anything worth having. I hope gooseworx gets some well deserved rest after all this bullshit.

This is also some of the vibe I get from my favorite irl leftist friends. Yes, destroy capitalism kill the billionaires blah blah blah, but are you okay? I mean, 100% serious about the revolution, don't get me wrong, but also be kind to yourself and take a nap and have a snack.

Fresh new American dystopia headline just dropped www.thegamer.com/grammacracke...

Ettin is one of those people who I only know from the computer but who I would still describe as a friend. Having gone through something similar not that long ago, I know how awful this situation is. If you like his work or simply think he's a cool dude, you should consider donating

The Article I branch is being completely circumvented. Its core powers to check the executive—the taxing & spending powers—are being ignored. The Framers failed to envision a Speaker & a Congress so craven, & their constitutional design is tottering as a result.

Try to imagine a Republican Party with a dozen or so staunch abortion advocates. A dozen pro-choice Republicans wrecking every shot at eroding women's autonomy, ruining every anti-choice vote. Can't picture it, can you? Yet we have to accept this kind of Democratic Party, for some reason.

This is the key, I think (re grad’s booing AI boosters). The very rich are leading a completely insular life cut off from not just non-rich opinions, but a distorted sense of what “work” is.

Recently, one of my closest friends, the funny, talented and kind @ettin.itch.io, lost his mother, after acting as his family's primary care support for a decade. She's why he has a career as a writer. He is trying to cover the costs of her cremation, and needs our support: gofund.me/40f37091a

Gideon doodle cause I missed her!!!

goddamn sometimes i miss cohost i miss having places to put things that aren't real content or blog posts but are also significantly longer than 300 characters

help i loaded an old file and the mouth texture was outdated and it rendered like this 💀💀💀

Clown event still possible

The pro surveillance politicians are very mad their constituents don't like being surveilled. After residents in a tiny Texas town pressured council to ban Flock, a pro-Flock councilmember called the town hypocrites and proposed a full phone and internet ban www.404media.co/after-town-b...

Playboy created a Bluesky account and their first post is to complain about AI. They already understand the Bluesky userbase better than the bluesky devs

it's even the exact same camera position

And that's that. Judge Reed O' Connor now has in his possession the medical records of countless trans youth in Rhode Island that includes everything from private therapy notes detailing every aspect of their lives to their prescriptions and diagnoses.

IRL Banjo Kazooie character that gives you a jiggy when you get him crisps.

Every now and then some mediocre white dude in the RPG industry puts out a game called out MURDERHEARTS and the art is some of the most milquetoast cheesecake fantasy you've ever seen, and Bsky/Tumblr/etc. react to it like the cover is guilty of violating every obscenity law.

I know I have followers here that are much younger than me and might not be immediately aware of the influences #InfinityTrain was stealing from. Myst and Riven were HUGE inspirations for the show and these look like pretty solid remakes. Now is a good time to check them out if you haven't before!
