Apparently the dreadful modern-day sections have been removed. Suddenly I'm interested.

Security guarantees from the Chief of Lies. Nothing he says can be trusted. Europe needs to unfreeze those Russian funds and step up!

I saw the new Running Man and ooff... Starts out mildly entertaining, but goes completely off the rails halfway through. One of the worst third-acts I can remember seeing. Feels like a bunch of hasty reshoots and re-edits, actors phoning it in etc.

The “winner takes all” mentality also pervades game awards now. Awards were the last opportunity to lift up a the lesser well-known. The most this, the most that. Otherwise it has no merit. This barren culture of quantifying art by statistics that must always go up.

Russia planted a bomb for a railway line in Poland (NATO country). In case you weren't worried yet, and deluded yourself into thinking that we're not in open conflict with Russia.

Happy that we can finally launch reveal it tomorrow 🙂#bloodborne

This special limited edition art print drops tomorrow, Tuesday 17th!

Michael Shannon and fellow actors are the highlight in 'Death by Lighting'. The show itself is very shallow though in both it's exploration of the history, and the human psychology. As usual it's too long and @netflix ugly too.

Wild statistic. The net worth held by the top 0.1% of households is $23.3 trillion. The amount held by the bottom 50% is $4.2 trillion. www.wsj.com/lifestyle/tr...

A hallmark of quality writing is a character vocalizing everything I'm already seeing on screen... "I'm now walking through a door!" #metroidprime

To negotiate a trade deal with the President of the United States, the Swiss government arrived with a "special Rolex desktop clock" and "a 1-kilogram personalized gold bar" www.axios.com/2025/11/14/t...

Can flawed people build flawless tools? Look at how the internet is now, and the paragons of morality at the top building it. Are these the architects you want to give free reign to build an all encompassing digital universe? I wouldn't trust myself to build A.I. tools.

What's happening on, or with consoles is just really boring? It's just infrastructure now. I also don't get excited about an upgrade of my broadband connection from 500MB to 1GB. It's a meaningless difference to my actual use. Now games on the other hand... www.eurogamer.net/five-years-f...

I'm very interested in the Steam Frame! I love VR, but I never upgraded from the PSVR, as I don't want to buy anything from that awful, stain-on-humanity company META.

no matter what you think about valve we are unfortunately at a stage of capitalism when it is extremely refreshing when a company comes up with a product for you to simply exchange money for

PlayStation State of Play today? If there is no new BLOODBORNE 🩸 announcement, at least we got you covered next week! 🎨

Blessed Saint Maarten. Give to the poor (many have a GoFundMe).

Because the video game industry failed to humanize game creation to the public, it’s no surprise this is the art form where A.I. adoption is most easily accepted. To most, games already come automagically “from the computer.” The idea that artists, writers, or actors are involved?

I'm super impressed by how smooth a launch ARC Raiders had. 700,000 concurrent players in the opening week, and it just works? I play on PC. Smooth, polished, cross play, everything. Really impressive compared to some multi-billon dollar jank fests I know...

Other countries are paying the tariffs! But also, here's some money to compensate you for the tariffs you are now paying! www.wsj.com/opinion/trum...

I saw a video of Zuckerberg's yacht. I suppose it was meant to impress, but it just reinforced my belief that becoming a (multi)billionaire is a curse. Ivory tower shit. The sun is free. Roasting a fish on the beach, at peace, unhurried, with friends and loved ones. Give me that.

I've watched a few Yorgos Lanthimos films now, most recently Poor Things. At best, I find them style over substance. At worst, just tedious and shallow. I think I'll be giving Bugonia a pass as a result.

Cool game. Playing it on PC without a hitch straight out the gate.

There are people dying of hunger. www.wsj.com/business/aut...

Can a bad tree bear good fruit? That's usually what pops in my head when I see the people building this 'A.I. revolution'

"In the internal documents, Meta weighs the costs of beefing up its enforcement of scam ads against the toll of financial penalties from governments for failing to protect its users." It's more lucrative for them let fraud fester. So they do.

The elites cares about air travel, as that impacts them directly. The poor not having enough to eat? Shrug. www.wsj.com/opinion/air-...

Remodeling your ballroom while your people go hungry is some of the most Marie Antoinette shit I've seen in a while.

If anyone was looking for solid evidence that a crash is imminent, here it is:

Worth repeating: US and Chinese media and pundits do not report neutrally about Europe. The arrogant and triumphant reporting about Europe's supposed weaknesses are selective. Who needs to beg online for insulin? Europeans? Which countries have millions in serfdom to oligarchs? Europeans?

Sorry, maar ik zie toch echt teveel linkse politici met antisemitische hondenfluitjes in de weer. Altijd die "voorbehouden" die andere minderheden niet krijgen. Net zolang draaien totdat die Joodse burger die in elkaar getrapt is, het aan zichzelf te danken had (een beetje), want Israel.

Dick Cheney (and the TV show '24') sold Americans on the idea that tortur.... I mean "enhanced interrogation techniques" were an OK means to an end. I disliked both for that reason.

Never saw this Fallout artwork by Simon Bisley before. Very cool. Bisley was a big deal when I was growing up. I remember his art for PS1 game Loaded.

There is something patently absurd in all the moaning about EU unity as a contrast to America when we are now in week 5 of a US government shutdown that increasingly looks permanent

House of Dynamite looks so Netflix cheap man. Definitely not Bigelow's best otherwise.

What is it about Skyrim and Fallout that says 'grand adventure' so much more than an Avowed or Outer Worlds?

Grim. And the UAE supplies the US and UK-bought weapons to the RSF... www.theguardian.com/world/2025/n...

Crush the Russian fascists!

You haven’t heard as much about Sudan because people in Sudan aren’t able to broadcast their suffering on social media the way many others are but it is really bleak there. This is just the tip of the iceberg. 🎁🔗

Als je de hele tijd verkiezingen verliest, heb je dus een verhaal waar 87% van de Nederlanders niet op zit te wachten. Maar het zal wel weer aan de ontvanger liggen die het niet begrijpt. #GLPvdA

The video game 'industry' drowned out video games’ potential to be a serious (humor me) art form on par with literature or film. I find that video games are still in their “baby art” phase: coming-of-age stories, high pathos, “believe in yourself” insights, etc.

When they don't even care anymore that the corruption and cronyism is out in the open for everyone to see. www.wsj.com/finance/curr...
