if you really want to stick it to Disney, and other corporate media giants, become fascinated by things they would never produce, so that they might fade into the background noise of life.

NEW VIDEO! The world of Mafia: The Old Country is beautiful, but it does not breathe. It is a postcard. It isn't to be conquered—it's barely to be touched. Some see it as a flaw when compared to more open crime games. I think it is *the* thing that makes Mafia feel so... honest. Let's talk about it!

I find you tend to know instantly if a critique is hitting on something true (normally what you knew already and hoped had been patched over) and when it's bad faith, stupid, or just someone whose taste/politics/values are simply opposed to yours and their hate only reaffirms your work.

I long overlooked Gorguts for some reason as a stunning death metal band, one of the best to ever do it. I can't stop playing this track. it's about Tibetans fleeing the country and being fired on by Chinese soldiers. colossal mournful riffs that fade into nothing youtu.be/-QL4mfdjp-E?...

Great story everyone should check out about conflict between brothers and not fitting in to the regime of work. If you’re at all into wrestling (like me) you will love the story even more.

Charlie Kirk is just gender-bent de-Scotified Charlotte Church. is this anything

Here are some things that Charlie Kirk said in his life. The man is dead, and so it only seems fair to share his legacy by cataloguing the values he spread while alive.

Hate to do this but money is prrretty tight right now. If my vids have brought you some enjoyment or comfort over the years and you want to see them continue, please consider pledging even a dollar a month over at patreon.com/writingongames. Sincerely, every pledge helps tremendously!

Here's something a bit different. We've been reporting from Edinburgh to try to get to the bottom of a mystery in London. Princes Street is the Scottish capital's most famous shopping street — and it's gaining the *exact same* tatty gift shops as London. www.londoncentric.media/p/edinburgh-...

Per today’s genre discourse, Ken Vandermark on being asked “is jazz dead”

I'm not a genre expert but I think the thing that's happened to Science Fiction is that, without interesting new developments in technology, what is interesting about SF is often done better by Weird fiction, and is easier to set up. you can go 'there is something here that shouldn't be' and-
