thinking of how like a decade ago there were reports about Steam's community being filled with white supremacist groups and now Valve is still being treated as "well meaning nerds" despite Steam only having gotten worse since

my opinion on the persona 6 leaks is 'when's the next studio zero game'

people say this guy is trolling, and that might well be an option, but also have you considered that this is basically the audience of all the animation to life action remakes, and it is not small-

1. Kpop has no authority to bind and cast out demons. Kpop Demon Hunters promotes the notion that kpop, not the LORD, has authority to bind and cast out demons.

everything i know about jerma comes from this www.youtube.com/watch?v=PKVQ...

eventually "developing FFXI" is going to be one of those longstanding japanese crafts where only a few aged masters remain and they do the NHK documentary about the one guy who's the youngest apprentice at 47 and still gets up at the crack of dawn to tend to the mill

bro why are you bothering me this late. bro check the clock, it's like, nine in the afternoon. bro your eyes are the size of the moon

did s-e *actually* fire kate or are they just not making public appearances anymore because of all the harassment

remember when the whole premise of atproto and bluesky was to decentralize moderation so that one central authority couldn't abuse moderation powers against people they don't like. anyway cool how that's all out the window to protect the ego of one guy who got caught liking barely-legal porn

the trend of PC cases being more and more mesh has been a disaster for cat owners. oh you don't want your cat to use the front of your case as a scratching post? you don't want your cat to jump on top of your case and get stuck because their claws are trapped in the mesh? too bad

"Maya, can you file the autopsy report for me? Thanks."

couldn't make it through the first ten minutes of the new aku no hana live action adaptation. the direction is entirely wrong. it's like watching a fucking disney channel series

the journal with witch/ikoku nikki manga still hasn't been licensed in english? what the fuck

Yuri 2 just dropped. youtu.be/cf1ryWClGpU?...

a little wip of a certain lady #wip #ffxiv

oh shit bard mains eating good in 8.0

it's masturbation. it's that scene in american psycho where patrick bateman looks in the mirror and admires his own muscles while he's fucking, except they're getting off to how smart they are

free level design advice for creating an FPS arena that people will call the best multiplayer map ever made for generations.

oh they're just going straight for the twilight princess aesthetic

beautiful women in my notifications saying ⚠︎ Forbidden

Okay I did the video game grid thing

I made a point years ago that if you actually believed the things Altman was saying – if you actually took his own claims about what he was doing at face value – the logical response would be "someone needs to take this guy out."

struggling not to call infernus deadlock 'incineroar'

redraw of my tomodachi life basilio bc he looks like cooking mama... born to make bento, forced to wanton destruction 😔

More than 20 years ago. Same as it ever was.

Basically you have to understand that you’re here as a sort of parasite on someone else’s grift where they make vcs pay for their hobby. You’re black mold in the wall of an adult daycare. Embrace it but know it is transient.

Bluesky growth/popularity discourse is nonsensical without acknowledging that the website is run by people who don’t want to grow it and who are in fact quite mad about users getting in the way of them playing with toys.

there are altogether too many quotable paragraphs in this must-read article but i think i can restrain myself to just this one

objectively the funniest critique an american could level at another country

Every single person I know and met has an element of their past they're not proud of, or learned or grew from. Everyone I know has thought and/or done something they today regret, or abhor. Anyone who believes otherwise of themselves is dangerously delusional at best, a dangerous liar at worst.

if a leftist says he's anti-zionist because of the war crimes of a sovereign nation the times will suggest he is an anti-semite. if a conservative says that he is "j-pilled" the times will say it's about foreign policy.

'piracy didn't end up destroying the music industry' yes it did. unless you are taylor swift releasing 30 versions of the same album to a diehard fanbase, no one is making money selling music anymore. people pay $15/mo for access to all music ever and basically every dime goes to middlemen.

i don't think plastic guitar rhythm games should have open notes. that is not part of the holy harmonix vision. that is neversoft heresy

sorry folks the 'thank you chainsaw man' memes just aren't funny

kaz hirai will finally see his dream fulfilled - people paying $599 for a console with no games

"the good news is that we have found a relatively cheap and easy way to prevent the cast from going through puberty. the bad news is that not everybody in this room is going to like it".

feels weird to be invested in a valve game again in 2026 but i am spending unhealthy amounts of time in deadlock lately

grabbing my doordash

if i had a nickel for every time a manga i had enjoyed ended by just suddenly resetting the universe and not actually bothering to make an interesting conclusion to anything it had set up i'd have two nickels etc.

Dog lmao

i am actually a big fan of guitars and women talking to each other. not to get woke

I touched grass. I feel that my 🔍Wisdom has grown... #MetaphorReFantazio 🎨 (this is for #comifuro22 too)

You don’t have to be Catholic to want this

🎵 i'll be your queen bee, monkey d. luffy~ 🎵

to elaborate: they did this same shit with DLSS frame gen. a feature that objectively looks like Absolute Dogshit in every game it's in, but DF praised it up and down and got people spouting marketing nonsense like '*all* frames are fake, this is just how new frames will be rendered in ~The Future~'

I think it's weird for people who are nominally journalists to say things like "We should have waited to see what people think." The issue isn't that you lost the coin flip of public opinion; the issue was that you gave into astonishment. The problem is that the keyjingling got you at all!
