Remember when nft guys were like "Its not about money, I love the community" lol

i looked up the world record speedrun of this game on veteran and the guy is on the part im at and dying multiple times and screaming Fuck!!!!! FUCK!!!! so if the world record is doing that i feel less alone

following the announcement of bluey catan, I'd like to express my deepest condolences to polycules across Seattle, your age regressor girlfriend is about to ruin board games night forever

i think this is just how it always is. the french revolution wouldn't have happened without spiraling bread prices. the protests that toppled caeusescu were in part because of shortages of cooking oil.

People don't get shipwrecked anymore

Since im back on The Division 1-2 I been thinking how its strange this franchise has sold millions of copies but is just never talked about by the general public in the way that Destiny 2 still manages to. Div is i think generally more complex than Destiny so maybe that has something to do with it.

I. Want. Chinese EV

One thing I remember genuinely believing in 2002-3 was that this shit would be ostracized and unacceptable when I grew up

liberals still fundamentally don't understand what "social media manipulation" looked like in 2016, they think leftists mad on bluesky are paid by russia to have elaborate relationships and conversations when actual paid accounts were just spamming links to "hillary died???!!!" news stories

Just need to kill time until the weekend.... Just need to kill time and look busy until the weekend

Guys who buy Zero Parades because “game dev is a group effort and no one individual should be credited for their success” just have this pop up in real life

Coworker is adopting some weird fad diet that prevents her from eating most foods so she's just giving me all the shit from her pantry, hell yea free groceries

Woof! 🌻

I saw someone describe them as a continual series of reimagined "patriotic Marine vs. atheist professor" confrontations and I think that sums it up.

Chuds are posting like Stancil now

"According to Velloso, less than 3% of paying users actively use Copilot, even though Microsoft has pre-deployed it directly into the Windows 11 taskbar and across the Office suite." lol, lmfao

gf says "kneel gayman" to me all the time i don't understand the controversy

i truly detest Baby Yoda and wish him nothing but the worst

Trump Requests $1.2 Trillion To Have https://bit.ly/3RjdlH1

Every Oz episode: McManus: "you're gonna join this improv crew GODDAMMIT!" Inmate of em city: "fuck you McManus" *Inmate murders the whole improv crew* McManus: "get outta my office!" Augustus spinning around in some contraption: "in plague ridden Europe, doctors had sex with the corpses..."

Reminder that this company is the recipient of several billion dollars in government contracts, and Joe Biden could have cancelled them all with the stoke of a pen.

The thing about adventure time is that it's actually pretty dark and mature and made for growed ups

The half a century of liberals playing the mind game of “popular policy is actually bad bc what if it’s also popular with bad people?” and pretending the vast majority of Americans hate popular policy is really cool now that it’s engendered total victory for the pedophile scam oligarchy haaa

Isn't this like the sixth time he's said "I was about to 'RAIN HELL' but the very nice people of [insert country] asked me not to, so we won't be killing anyone today!"

I don't really care cause it matters basically not at all but it is very grimly funny that eurogamer review of the new za/um game gets preemptively defensive, if you feel the need to be defensive out the gate maybe you should evaluate why you feel that way and maybe need to change course

A lot of politics in art boils down to people looking for ideological signifiers that they support, and working backwards from that to explain how it supports what they believe in. This is really common with RW people but everyone does it.

"Organic Superlubricant? Oh, it's great stuff, great stuff. You really have to keep an eye on it though - it'll slide away from you the first chance it gets." It's 14:38 PM: Have you checked on your SuperLube today?

On my way to post whataboutism, kompromat, and disinformatsya on bluesky so swing voters won't #RESIST Comrade Трамп in the midterms

People were so busy trying to uncover if Mixtape was secretly fascist or secretly an industry plant it completely buried the real scandal, which is that Mixtape is secretly Australian

I'm just your average teenage sheila from Anytown, USA circa 1999. I love the bloody 80s, footy, and drinking VB with my top mates.

I could take this opportunity to point out how refusing to hold Trump and everyone who participated in J6 accountable has lead directly to this and that is ultimately the Democrats' fault, but what's even the point anymore. I'm so tired.

Consoles requiring a subscription fee to play multiplayer is still one of the crazier things this industry has normalized.

Think about the fact that we're nearly three years into a modern day Holocaust, and its still a struggle to get Democrats to even concede that something should be done to stop Israel, much less get on board with a full trade embargo Probably one of the most simple issues to take a side on morally.

it's cool that the president is trying to steal two billion dollars from my taxes to give to his pedophile friends and i'm supposed to like keep doing my job or whatever

The 4 hour walking sim/"interactive narrative experience" is like catnip to the professional game reviewer because they get to pretend they are reviewing a film (an actually respectable artform) and bang the review out in an afternoon instead of spending a week grappling with mechanics and systems

I think at some point game studios are gonna need to grapple with the fact that they learned how to get good scores from reviewers which is a completely different skill than making a game people will buy Also that good reviews kinda mean diddly dick for your game nowadays

AI companies currently subsidize their users $3 to $25 for every dollar of subscription. As a result, users are very sensitive to *any* price or rate limit changes, and have no idea what their actual token burn is. Token-based billing will be lethal at scale. www.wheresyoured.at/premium-what...

Obviously buying a game or not is immaterial as a sociopolitical act but it’s really crazy to see people who supposedly bought into Disco Elysium’s themes falling over themselves for that new ZA/UM game.

"Love Jews Hate Zionism." "A GENOCIDAL ISRAEL IS BAD FOR ALL JEWS." "Judaism saves, Zionism kills." A sample of what the ADL is counting as antisemitism — in data that lawmakers often cite to justify cracking down on speech or sending more aid to Israel:

Trump: "We've taken people that were dead. We had a person given the last rites -- gone, the kids are crying and everything -- and started them on this drug. And the person became better. It works."

"Foxes" ACEO, raw and matted. Original is 2.5x3.5" painted with posca pens.

he's 1-crap he's 1-crap! nice that's a team wipe

if you support this in any way, even in a "well trump is bad but the cuban regime is also bad..." lib way you are an inhuman piece of shit and in no way shape or form better than any fascists you claim to hate

I think fundamentally a society is cruel and evil if the violent destroyers of innocence who revel in gore and destruction and murder are protected by the state and ensured that they are made to live as long as possible. It just feels extremely unjust on a societal philosophy level

NEW: Seattle might declare a civil emergency to help LGBTQ (mostly trans) people fleeing red states, so I looked for a Texas angle. An organizer told me that Texas is #1 among trans people looking to relocate: "The baseline hostility to their existence is unbearable." www.chron.com/culture/arti...

the crimes of this era are nigh innumerable but what the united states has done to the global south will live forever in infamy

The Democratic Party Establishment is going to make absolutely sure that everything we’ve lost cannot be regained. That’s their role as controlled opposition and how the right moving ratchet effect operates. It’s why the party establishment must be evicerated at all costs
