They will call PORTLAND "war ravaged" and send it in people to "help" But not to ACTUALLY ravaged places who are desperate for help, like Gaza

It really is unfair how cool this looks

Well don't I feel stupid

It's Don't Argue Inside Your Head With Other People Friday. Today, if you find yourself arguing inside your head w/someone who's not present, or whom it's not safe or not fair for you to argue with, gently move your mind away. Do this as many times as you need.

I need to be vulnerable for a moment: I need help. I've been out of work since July 2025, and I'm running low on funds. My wife has been out of work for the past 6 weeks due to daily seizures, and I'm struggling hard both financially and mentally.

“An emotional research team became tearful as they described how data shows the disease was slowed by 75% in patients.” What an absolutely incredible, joyous achievement for everyone involved. Hurrah for science and scientists! www.bbc.com/news/article...

You should become a patron of patreon.com/skyboxcritics & help us pay our awesome writers (co-founders like me don't get paid at all right now, because we don't make enough to pay all our writers yet, and we do a TON of work to make all the shows, edit, and publish everything you see from us)

Playing FF Tactics for the first time? Here’s a tip. Go to Mandalia Plain. You’re gonna spend 5 miserable hours having all your characters power up like goku next to a terrified bird or have them throw rocks at each other until they’re max level. This is the best game ever made btw.

it's time for the latest edition of whatever the heck this column is this time featuring a blobber i downloaded while traveling for @begroom.bsky.social wedding gotta support kemco being weirdos, which is pretty much any time kemco publishes a game

Hey, fellow @marvel-rivals.bsky.social fans Discussions around character power for Season 4 have been interesting, so I aggregated tier placements from high level streamers & pro players, using them to assign point values S tier placements gave 4 points 3 for A 2 for B & so on Here is the result:

The superhero show and comic stuff is good, but his talk show? Fantastic

Not using a product you don't pay for isn't the same as boycotting one that you do. If a service is free you gotta make yourself so unavoidably annoying so they can't ignore you. If you're paying for something, that's when you drop that shit.

I'm canceling and abandoning any company or service who caves to fascism If you don't have a spine, get used to missing out on my money and time

“With a single post or video, we can influence thousands of guests to try a food, drink, or experience in the parks,” she says. “I couldn’t, in good conscience, keep giving them free publicity knowing they don’t support free speech and are willing to bow to fascism."

Just watched Thunderbolts My wife remarked about halfway through, "Wait... Is this a movie about an Enneagram 9?" Me (a 9) thinking about what that means for the... Other side of things: 😬 Suffice to say, she was right

just saw a tiktok from a disney adult reading from On Tyranny and asking their followers to cancel their d+ and disney trips omg

No one should get violent threats. But if you’re gonna change your vote because of it, you should resign. I’Ve been getting violent threats all week and not only do I have no intention of shutting up, I think it’s evidence that we need to say it louder

I will never not repost this masterpiece when it hits my feed

never labor under the assumption the other side will play fair

Really tough time to be an adult who actually did all the assigned high school reading.

Dam been writing a book about this and she just TikToked it in 90 seconds.

You should also consider supporting @skyboxcritics.com, just saying. Help us pay our writers (a very diverse group from all over the world) write cool things about games/TV/film and so on.

Don't acquiesce ahead of time Call their bluff FORCE them to take action that makes it clear that they are villains MAKE them retaliate

I didn't realize so many people in America were such pathetic, bootlicking cowards Grow a spine you feckless, simpering wimps

Robert Redford on Richard Nixon's death. Not much changes, I guess.

If they are not going to write it there is no reason to read it.

ah, well

in light of the kimmel news, just a reminder that a few days ago a prominent fox news host literally called for killing homeless people. right afterward, someone shot up a couple homeless encampments. that fox news host still has his job.

if Jimmy Kimmel's political humor is too hot for you to handle, I'm not sure "snowflake" even cuts it as a term of derision for the level of fragility you've achieved

A free and democratic society cannot silence comedians because the President doesn’t like what they say. This is an attack on free speech and cannot be allowed to stand. All elected officials need to speak up and push back on this undemocratic act.

This score is just straight up wrong Hook is awesome (I am an entertainment critic and idgaf what anyone else says about it. It rules)

They had kids, too.

Just thinking about how the right made up an entirely fictional left wing character that resulted in so many bomb threats and the like and nobody will face consequences. But people on the left who accurately clocked the victim’s life work lost jobs.

A fantastic birthday present to me 💟

Went to In-N-Out and my checkout person was named Cambria 💟 @coheedandcambria.bsky.social

It was only last month that a guy mad about covid vaccines fired 500 rounds into the CDC building in Atlanta, btw

no offends if this is you but if you're thinking "this is going to make the right do fascism" they're already there. they blew up a boat with 11 people on it for being immigrants. they're kidnapping US citizens and trying to rendition them to Uganda. do you think we're on a trajectory to peace

Don't let this go unnoticed with the Charlie Kirk news dominating everything. More kids were shot today.

We have a bit of a natural experiment here. Compare the tone, quantity and duration of Charlie Kirk coverage with that of the two Dem lawmakers gunned down in their homes in Minnesota 6 months ago. May be revealing.

A President who is scared to meet the public, is no President of the People at all

What an expertly called shot
