Stranger Than Heaven already looks amazing 😮‍💨😮‍💨😮‍💨😮‍💨

Kind of a perfect metaphor for the media and the role they've played over the last ten years

We really did a massive disservice to kids who were interested in computers (and everyone else) by conflating "interested in computers" with "highly intelligent" and then setting them loose on the world with that misconception.

“I will NOT sacrifice the Oxford comma. We've made too many compromises already; too many retreats. They assimilate the em dash and we fall back. They capture ‘not just X but y’ and we fall back. Not again. The line must be drawn here! This far, no further!”

Not sold on the assumption of this whole piece: More people must continue to play the new games. Noticeable it doesn’t want to actually say why hardware costs are going up (too political) or why graphics need to become more demanding (too critical). Glaring absence of labor costs and concerns too.

There is no ethical consumption of HBO’s Harry Potter series

Great news out of Georgia! ALL of the 15 anti-LGBTQ+ bills have died as the Georgia legislative session comes to a close. This was only possible with intense efforts from local LGBTQ+ activists. Subscribe to support our journalism.

“It is beneath my dignity to let myself be run over by any trolley, and particularly this trolley, burdened as it is by a cape and a stupid hat.” I wrote for Defector about boycotting Harry Potter, the ‘safe’, kindly face of anti-trans politics: defector.com/its-time-to-...

How did we let the NAND crisis get to a point where the Xbox's proprietary Expansion Card storage options are cheaper than the standardized PCIe 4x4 SSDs? 🫩

You cannot be a good person and support ICE/Trump/this administration. You are morally and ethically corrupt. The blood is on YOUR hands and I hope you don’t know one ounce of peace while you support our government executing citizens in our streets. Fuck ICE. Fuck Trump.

Janet is a dear friend and an absolute sweetie who is just trying to make a good life for herself. Help if you can, pass along if you can't.

If you've pre-loaded FF7 Remake on Switch or Xbox, it's live right now. Used to pray for times like this.

Our culture has such a reliance on art, mixed with so much disdain for artists' lives. Someone throws soup at a painting in a gallery or whatever and everyone acts like it's a literal murder, but that level of sympathy is for the object, almost never for the living conditions of artists.

One month ago today, the Jeffrey Epstein files were legally required to be released to the public in full. The Department of Justice failed to meet the deadline and continues to withhold over 2 million files.

also: nsfw artists here get treated like shit, the translate feature is lacking, people are financially reliant on the old site, etc if your argument of getting people here is centered around shame, it won't work. shaming people won't get them to move here we need to have a supportive community

Just saw the Lamarr Wilson news. Fuck man, RIP.

If Half-Life 3 does indeed get announced, what then? If we do indeed find ourselves face to face with this white whale of video games, will we truly have succeeded? Or will it only pull us into the abyss? Herein only madness reigns.

Just going to keep this post up today. Might find some time to give it the mantra treatment if needed. Oh gaming gods, please give me the strength to channel Ben Pack on this of all days.

"one day, when it's safe, when there's no personal downside to calling a thing what it is, when it's too late to hold anyone accountable, everyone will have always been against this"

They just put their dicks on the table

We don’t use generative AI at Strange Scaffold and I can confirm that a *lot* of other studios are not—whether indie or AAA. Get outta here with this normalization bullshit.

Mass exodus of Dodger fans when Blake Treinen’s name was announced. One fan in my section “are you FUCKING KIDDING ME DAVE” Why sit in parking lot traffic for 2 hours when ths Dodgers manager has conceded the game?

Battlefield 6's campaign is an act of narrative cowardice: aftermath.site/call-duty-mode...

A company with decades of single-player experience pivoting to multiplayer? Well, it worked for Anthem, Suicide Squad: Kill the Justice League, FBC: Firebreak, Redfall, Marvel's Avengers, and all those PlayStation games

How little I’m seeing about this is disturbing. I will not be cordial with scum like this. I will not respectfully mourn the death of scum like this. These bottom feeders should not have rights. I refuse to be gaslit and for this to be sane-washed. www.politico.com/news/2025/10...
