Rolled credits on Mixtape last night. I’m glad games like this are still getting made: Vibesy coming-of-age stories set in hometowns with friends, written to have some poignant moments of earnest reflection. Many scenes put a big smile on my face, or made me laugh out loud at the modes of gameplay.

It is not the Coke Freestyle machine that is perverse, but the society in which it lives.

probably not a good sign for humanity writ large to have created a huge financial incentive structure for people to be aggressively antisocial and antagonistic in public for money and make clear that that's a viable career path

People be talking about EVs today and that's like my whole thing so here's what I've identified as The Problem: The idea of being inconvenienced AT ALL overrides the average person's ability to consider whether a small inconvenience in one context might be outweighed by upsides in other contexts.

All Hail The New Static

I wonder what Bluesky would be like if we lived in a world without MAGA and Tr*mp bullshit. Like what would people post about

make incompetence shameful again

the nicest thing you can wish upon an artist in 2026 is that their work gains a small but dedicated cult following of kind hearted and politically shrewd weirdos & sickos that keep the fire going. the meanest thing you can wish upon an artist in 2026 is that their work gains a large online fandom

I cannot wait to see what the swine think of these pearls

I would like to unsubscribe from all Pokémon discourse on the internet forever

they're executing moms and nurses in the street. they're using preschoolers as bait. they're stealing people's dads and grandmas and children. they're tear gassing babies. they're staking out schools. there is no remedy but abolition. any proposal that doesn't start there is an act of violence.

My kingdom for a way to explore/inspect the environments of Silent Hill f in VR.

The level of Gamer Entitlement™️ you see in the comments for each NSO update is incredible. NSO could announce a god-tier slate of games and pissant whiners would only reply “why haven’t you added DK64??” There is just no pleasing these babies. Anyway, all these games rule. youtu.be/6wZZI8a4uDI?...

I don't hate on bad games if they clearly make an effort. I will forever love The Demon Rush for shooting for the moon and blowing its own legs off. But when I see an RPG Maker game proudly announcing that it's part-written by ChatGPT? Fuck everyone involved in that game. Absolute losers.

I long for a time when we had silly goofball movies to watch, and intelligent serious people in power. Now we have intelligent serious movies, and silly goofballs in power.

The desperate need to accumulate more and more at the cost of everyone else’s wellbeing should be classified as a mental disorder, and I will absolutely die on this hill.

Between Blippo+ and Silent Hill f, my favourite gaming experiences of 2025 have been all about repeated plays, uncovering new connections and re-interpreting the meanings written between the lines. My favourite discoveries have been stories that are not explicitly shown on screen or in gameplay.

Refuse to be lectured-to about political violence by those who disappear people and kidnap children off the streets.

I think it would be beneficial to everyone if every man woman and child in America put their phones down for a couple days.

Sometimes we’re unsatisfied with a thing we made because when it only existed in our head, we saw all the things it could have been and when it’s done we know all the things that it isn’t, but we can’t see the way it expands into a million new things when someone else unpacks it in their head. 🖊️🦑

After boarding a bus yesterday, I saw a gormless rube asking ChatGPT where it was going. Blindly getting on a bus and asking ChatGPT where it’s headed is a perfect microcosm of where we are as a society. Especially when buses have readily available route maps for anyone willing to pull them up.

American mainstream political culture makes a lot more sense when you realize that most people's goal is not to improve their own conditions but rather to make the people they imagine to be their enemies mad

How did we get an entire corporate and political world full of scumbags and bastards, all we did was incentivize that behavior at every turn

i know it's just advertisement but it still pisses me off when tech CEOs claim AGI will solve humanity's problems with its vast intelligence. for a lot of problems we already know the solutions, what prevents them being solved is not a lack of intelligence, but that the solutions are unprofitable

What if writing dialogue was a joyful, purposeful, and creative task? What if I wanted to read dialogue somebody else had written, to connect with them through their ideas and stories? What if creation was about more that churning out #Product as quickly and cheaply as possible?

What’s this? A new Pulp adventure game from the creator of the absolutely stellar Resonant Tale? Playdate owners are eating goooooood this month

I’d already committed to preordering Playdate Season 2 before I learned it contains a special surprise: Blippo+ seems to be a weird af, LIVE 1bit FMV ARG. I’ve been channel surfing for the last couple days, trying to unwrap its mysteries. What new discoveries will future broadcasts bring??

Friends, if you are in NYC please come to this special screening of Hayao Miyazaki's directorial debut FUTURE BOY CONAN. It's always been a dream so have something like this screen at Japan Society to help celebrate this series' place in anime history.

if you'd like to see a wide re-release of Hundreds of Beavers in theaters this year, one night only, in thousands of cities — repost this. we've got some doubters.

I'm glad using AI is making your brain deteriorate, you deserve it

Gamers are the fucking worst.

Gaming is an expensive hobby. We’ve forgotten this because of Steam Sales.

Nicholas Cruz shot and killed 17 people at Parkland school. He's in prison. Luigi Mangione killed 1 person and they're seeking the death penalty. What's the difference? The kids at Parkland weren't millionaires.

I know it got way overshadowed by other big announcements, but that Wheelchair Basketball game looks promising. Two-handed mouse & gesture controls is a cool idea. I wonder if the mouse will work if you play it on your lap?

To those despairing at fascist propagandists using genAI to cynically ape the look of Studio Ghibli: put your phone in a drawer & watch yr favourite Ghibli film with your heart wide open. Embrace the life that flows from each frame. Ghibli is more than a static aesthetic; it’s a spirit of vitality.

Mr. Miyazaki sir, I love your movies about how capitalism and the destruction of nature are evil, I made a shitty facsimile of them in a computer that drains reservoirs, do you like it

If y’all are mad the new Katamari game is exclusive to Apple Arcade, I have great news: Keita Takahashi, the originator of everything we all love about the Katamari Damacy franchise, has a new game coming out in May: to a T. Get hype for that, instead! youtu.be/E-QlrrC4vFk?...

In March 1945, the United States War Department created an 8-page fact sheet about fascism for the Army to distribute to soldiers. Wow. This should be mandatory reading now: archive.org/details/Army...

Unbelievable...

After watching @techconnectify.bsky.social's recent video about algorithmic complacency, (www.youtube.com/watch?v=QEJp...) look what popped up in my Home feed.

Suddenly, out of nowhere, a declassified World War II-era CIA guide to sabotaging fascism in the workplace has become one of the most popular free ebooks on the internet: www.404media.co/declassified...

The best there is, the best there was, the best there ever will be.

They cant get my data if i am Fully Dissolved in a bath tub full of sodium hydroxide

“Lots of Switch 2 leaks and rumours right now, looks like we’re gonna hear an announcement & release date by the end of the day. I’d stake my reputation as a Nintendo YouTuber on it” The leaks & rumours: *flicker and dance hauntingly on the cavern wall*
