"We believe you have the right to spend your money as you wish on any product it is legal to buy" should, frankly, be the bare minimum and it is weird that this is not something retailers are willing to fight over.

Deciding "bruh" is a fine thing to say tells me that y'all haven't been rejected by your Genitally Underprivileged boyfriends and it SHOWS.

I know it's been said a million times but honestly, honestly, the US-Israeli war on Iran is genuinely one of the most fucked up things I have seen in international affairs in my life. It is genuinely shocking to me, in a way I think it would be bad to lose sight of, just how bad this has been.

Dear reader: he did not, in fact, fuck it up. Unseeded, unmodded. I’m still playing but I’ll share the seed when I die.

Critically: You must INTENTIONALLY REQUEST expedited processing by including a letter with your citizenship request explaining your situation, along with supporting documentation.

anyway good night or else

Ok ok ok new video game discourse: Forbidden Solitaire is really good

Monday Nora post to start the week.

everything is a UI problem, except memory allocation, which is witchcraft

you really do need to try to be kind. it's so important.

bottom line is I think there’s basically no game worth making a video about why you think it sucks for any reason

Another day hard at work at the FBI. I managed to get an 8.9 in a near-major publication for a slightly twee indie game and I changed the outfit of a female character in a AAA shooter. I still don’t quite see the vision behind what we’re doing but I’m sure it’s important

see, the little details like this are what make dystopian sf interesting for me what incidental little things break as a result of the scenario

It's true—Big Misery put us up to it. They paid off Valve and all the gaming sites. They're a powerful lobbying group and they just really, really want to make people experience moral horror

she fetches too hard. i whip the ball and she looks like someone fired an unmanned muppet out of a tshirt gun

what my skircle looks like

I’m sorry but she’s so cool

In light of the recent policy changes at Kickstarter, we have chosen to postpone our campaign for Monsterhearts: Welcome to Drowned Lake. We support 18+ creators & encourage studios & devs to urge Kickstarter to revert these changes. Please read our full statement here:

I don't think sending cruise ship contacts on international commercial flights without PPE or serial testing, nor mandating quarantine afterwards is smart public health. These are the kinds of decisions that get you into trouble, even if this outbreak stays relatively small.

I once had a sandwich that was so bad at Great American Ballpark that they wrote about it in the Cincinnati newspaper. The good people of Cincinnati responded by denying knowledge of the sandwich, accusing me of smuggling it in to defame the city, and sending me death threats on my wedding day.

thinking about this tumblr post (www.tumblr.com/bumblebeebat...)

The redistricting wars feel like the whole of modern American politics: Trump picks a stupid fight, wages it idiotically, Democrats fight back and win, then some other American institution suddenly chimes in to hand the win to Trump anyway for being a very special boy and everyone gets mad at Dems

“by Paul Tassi” an underrated stinger here

this looks like an extra tough captcha test

I consider the core part of my work is helping people find games that they like. Turns out there really is something for everyone. Often many somethings, coming out at an almost incomprehensible rate. Even before private equity gutted games journalism, only the best-marketed/luckiest 0.1% got shown

The nice thing about games is that there’s five million of them released every week that you’ll never be able to finish. If you’re annoyed by one sucking up air you can just play a Tales game, a DOOM mod by a guy with an undiscovered form of OCD or a city builder where you make homes for gay mice.

Here's my message to Kickstarter if you need something to start with.

very much of the view that a democratic congress should wield the guarantee clause against ad hoc, mid-decade redistricting, a practice which is an end run against representative government itself

we already have enough indie games that would appeal to all sorts of people who don’t play games — but the people who don’t play games don’t know about them. and they need to know about more than one thing that catches their interest to download steam. Or buy a console. That’s the reality.

My hot take: "prepare our students for an AI future" is defined as the actual time it takes to learn to prompt models/agents (<6hrs) plus the much larger time needed to develop discernment, taste, mental shielding against cognitohazardous distortions, and placating AI-riddled boss efficiency demands

why would i want to watch a podcast. podcasts are for when you are doing something else

11/ Bottom line: this remains a serious but contained outbreak. There may be more cases among passengers because symptoms can take weeks to appear, but the risk to the broader public remains extremely low and the virus continues to behave exactly how experts would expect Andes hantavirus to behave.

Adult content helped build Kickstarter. It helps build most of the big sites on the web, only to get evicted once the business settles into the positions smut built for them. It has every right to exist and its creators deserve to participate in the social spaces their work developed.

Technically it was sent to fill the pothole and, well, it is filling the pothole

i really really really really really really Really like “Forbidden Solitaire” the pc game

The Crane Rider's Tale is a fantasy mystery game with wild twists, 5 endings, and a cast of wacky characters inspired by Chinese folktales. We're 85% funded on Kickstarter right now. Less than 17 days left to help us reach our goal!!

at the Vatican I was served exactly one slice of desiccated Parma ham between halves of a rock hard roll. I refuse to accept it as a sandwich even if it technically fit the criteria

The answer at the end of this thread is true and somehow crushing
