Dietrich Bonhoeffer was an anti-fascist German Lutheran pastor who opposed Hitler and the Nazi Party so effectively that they murdered him in 1945. He is only a bad guy if you literally spend all your time on far-right, neo-Nazi websites and have pickled your brain in fascist group chats.

You may have seen my previous posts about it, but I elaborated a bit more on my favorite contribution to Destiny (and probably to any game ever), "I Made This For You." Thanks @nathangrayson.bsky.social for a lovely collection of stories.

Hi, we saw you from across the bar, and we'd like to give you health care.

They already are on PC hardware if you try hard enough…

This may sound unusual, but it is the most New Yorker attitude known to humankind

today I discovered this incredible story of a minor league pitcher who is 6'4 wears glasses and a ginger beard who hurt his elbow and went to the doc for Tommy John surgery and was mistaken for a pitcher from a diff team who was also there for TJ surgery on same day anyway heres their pics and names

"you simply must accept slop if you want new videogames" my jrpg backlog is literally mathematically unfishable assuming I even reach my average life expectancy

How is this legal

Cate Blanchett, come get your Oscar in advance.

pay special attention to #3

One of the things that perpetually dismantles my mind re: seasonal game models is how much *work* in terms of human effort, artistic output, and monetary spend, is in a game only temporarily and then disappeared, never to be seen again. If D2 still had all its content it’d be like a 200-hour game.

Happy Pride to this Caravaggio self-portrait that made one man so gay he had to go to the hospital

truly the worst-titled book of all time, so much so that possters continue to attempt clowns on it a generation later by citing events which constitute uncanny validations of its predictions

Accessibility features don’t make games easier. They make games playable.

God bless New York City.

Hercules and Nessus, by Giambologna, 1599

Looking at Marathon's store, where they've finally added skins that give interesting visual changes to their classes, it's *fascinating* to me that no-one seems to implement one of the things that I'm pretty certain made Fortnite a ton of money: The ability to gift cosmetics to friends.

Eisenhower’s all-staff email ahead of D-Day:

Have you double checked that poster copy? Oh, er, yep...good to go.

This is real btw

Ah yes, the "Thdpsssps"

Ironically, Young Jr is the oldest Young in this photo.

This is legitimately how LLMs act all too often, and it's both infuriating and fundamentally contrary to the tech magnate bombast about them

webp remains one of the overall worst inventions ever created.

The discourse

I think it's a strong indicator that Marathon has The Juice that I was really looking forward to playing it with my kids tonight, but can't due to server problems - and I'm disappointed about it. My heart goes out to the teams having a REALLY long day today over there.

Another Doctor Who ep (we're at mid-11th) it is this evening.

So much of this dude’s strategy is just “look and act like a human being” and “do cool stuff every once in a while just because” and it’s revolutionary because most politicians at every level have forgotten how to do those things.

really he's just going to coffee with friends. excel mistakes everything for a date

stop doing MULTIPLE PHASES BOSSES WERE NOT SUPPOSED TO BE MULTIPLE FIGHTS wanted to do more phases for a laugh? we had a tool for that, it was called "ANOTHER BOSS"

Can confirm this is 100% accurate

i’m CRUMBLING

I would be remiss not to point out that "Tricking Milli Vanilli into performing a concert for a dictator" is LITERALLY a storyline from the 1990s 'Super Mario Bros 3' cartoon 🙃

I’ve been tuning competitive games for 15 years, and I’ve come to one inevitable conclusion. Want to know why people loved our patches on Killer Instinct and Rumbleverse so much? My hour long deep dive premieres tonight at 10pm EST on Game Design Direct! www.youtube.com/watch?v=uCPQ...

Hate to break it to this guy, but God _is_ non-binary because theologically, God transcends sex and/or gender.

Ok this is a truly great tweet
