homophobia is nonsense. Why are you angry that this well-groomed man is not about to steal your wife??

BAFTA-nominated Vampire Therapist is hated by libertarians and stunted men and beloved by the strange and irreverent. And it's 35% off during the Steam Summer Sale! If you haven't played it yet, there's no better way to beat the heat than by being undead. 😅 store.steampowered.com/app/2481020/...

Yeah this sucks, man. Physical media is not the enemy and no one wins when companies try to close the door on it.

2 random examples, but House and Entourage, completely politically incorrect by today's standards, basically never mention trans people until suddenly both deciding to drop the T-slur in 2007. It comes out of nowhere and is very clearly tied to some larger anti-trans sentiment building at the time.

They claim that the anti-trans movement started in 2014 which is just wrong. I've spent the last few years binging a lot of old TV shows and what's very strange about the shows that ran across the 2000s is that many of them start making trans jokes completely out of nowhere between 2005-2007.

Every time I hear about Netflix Avatar, I’m left with a slight resentment for my job and a general confusion at how you bungle a show originally made for fourth graders that’s as old as the PlayStation 3

Not sure there’s much dignity in simping for the cops, rich, or Israel (if there ever was for any of them), but Alright

However well intentioned this is, it feels like it’ll further kill our sense of community if it takes off, to say nothing of how it could hurt human stylists or potential clients

This is also why, say, they don't immediately start working on a new Pikmin. Because the dude who does the 3D modeling of the items is currently working on like Mario Kart. And keeping all those people employed feels more important than putting out a new Pikmin.

The Witness hijacking your Ghost in Shadowkeep:

Of course trans women are women. You relentlessly sexualize us but act outraged if we dare to find ourselves sexy. You make choices about our healthcare without letting us speak. You constantly use the threat of rape and physical violence against us.

Well, this is fucking horrifying

if you're looking to load up your cart on Capital-D Deals, Interstate 35 is in a new bundle with @calligramstudio.com's Phoenix Springs and @meiacalca.bsky.social's Panthalassa, all 3 of which are discounted for the sale in addition to the bundle discount!!

This is a warning shot. Texas is where all school texts for K-12 are made. THIS SHOULD CONCERN EVERYONE.

I genuinely wouldn't feel so "ugh, go away" about this if PlayStation did this literally at any point with their first-party games in the last 6 years. However many of them are actually at GTA's level, they each deserve(d) to feel like an Event

Sorry to the Mako fans, but. You know he’s a Year 2 character, it’s what he deserves.

There’s nothing wrong with Haitians! I’m getting sick of this state enforced bigotry & violence against them just like I’ve long been sick of the US sabotaging them at every turn with its imperialism. This is the world’s first Black republic! A proud free people you’d be honored to know some of.

The amount of positive energy that’d be generated if just one of these below was pushed off a bit in favor of getting a Wonder Woman-led project out the door would power a small nation

You read stuff like this and feel like corporations have not gotten metaphorically punched in the face nearly enough if they're pulling this type of nonsense

Listen, if you've never had Culver's before, come to the midwest. Have a concrete and some cheese curds, they're good

Ohhhhhhhhhh, boy. Hope the QuanDream team can succeed.

I don't know if it's smart to hitch a wagon to "the system actively beating people's assess emotionally and financially" and "the system that is responsible for people being killed on a near-weekly basis"

“How do you lose a giraffe??” that, but also how do you keep one where they are so their owner or animal control can come get them?

Mamdani announces $15M for trans healthcare, includes launching a call/text resource support line. Notes city Law Dept filed an amicus brief against subpoenas for medical records. Hospitals suspended care to trans youth following a Trump EO. This seems to try working around that, doesn’t mention it

It’s been less than a week since Riley O’Neil’s funeral and the city is actively removing protected bike lanes from 18th street. Just 2 weeks ago everyone in the city made public comments that Riley’s death was a tragedy & yet this week they’re making biking less safe

*snerk* No, no, let's get her in front of a camera and mic her up

Bruce Wayne, after having a minute-long conversation with an apparition of his surrogate father, who’s been dead for nearly a decade: I’m completely sane and doing fine mentally

'Evangelion' 30th Movie Fest Brings the Series Back to the Big Screen

If you're a Bungie worker impacted by the latest cuts I'd be interested in hearing your story. Happy to speak confidentially and answer any questions you might have about the process of chatting with a journalist. DMs open. Email in bio. Signal QR pinned (kerrblimey.43).

How convenient there’s not a trailer for this to be conveyed in any shape or form

Everything collapsing at Bungie and Destiny 2 had me watching back their old ViDocs. These had some great behind-the-scenes stuff that's now just rendered moot for no other reason than execs making others take hits meant for them www.youtube.com/watch?v=qgnP...

FYI: If you see a Japanese person here for the World Cup freaking out over some mundane American food, ESPECIALLY if done so in English--that is a lie. You are being manipulated for clicks, based on your innate racism that Japanese people are little children easily wondered by American superiority.

Promising trailer youtu.be/78ci4NUL_Fo?...

The most photogenic, unintentionally hilarious bullshitter of our time

Eheheh

Destiny’s lore has been routinely saved by preservationists. With support ending on Destiny 2, their work becomes even more crucial. We speak to some of those responsible for archiving years’ worth of Bungie storytelling, including MyNameIsByf and the people behind the Ishtar Collective.

i do not wish the game industry a "shorter games with worse graphics made by people who are paid more to work less." i wish the game industry a "unionize and redistribute capital equitably"

Almost 300 people laid off at Bungie according to a WARN notice filed in Washington today:

CALL FOR PORTFOLIOS: Hi team, I'm seeking artists who specialise in small animals, ideally in a traditional style (though digital execution is fine). I'm after experienced artists who are used to delivering to deadlines for clients. Drop me a link to your portfolios!

another @variety.com feature – today I saw scenes from season two of COMMON SIDE EFFECTS, and spoke with co-creators Joe Bennett and Steve Hely about where they're taking their psychedelic conspiracy thriller. can't wait for this show to come back variety.com/2026/tv/glob...

Anyone laid off, apply to our game studio. Doesn't matter if you don't see a matching role, apply anyway via the "General Dev Application" If you applied before, apply again. You got nothing to lose. www.absurdventures.com/careers
