So yeah lol, just go back a bit less than a year and read ALL the Silksong discourse and it will all apply to Mina the Hollower with no alteration basically, except in this case the haters have even less of a leg to stand on because I've never seen a game with so many difficulty options

oh man this is so fucking funny, I've been waiting for the Wikipedia people to rip the mask off for a long time

It's because capitalism is fundamentally founded on grift, lol, and therefore this is objectively true

Speaking as someone who is trans and disabled, if I am going to die either at the hands of fascists who hate me with burning fury or liberals who aren't particularly bothered by me but find me a convenient sacrifice for the sake of maintaining civility, for God's sake give me the fascists.

*presses my cutest button*

"Cheering on the underdog" are you, huh? So you're encouraging the puppy sub, doesn't sound so wholesome now does it buster? You freak. You degenerate.

Why are you trans, wrong answers only I used an early draft of the character creation form where they accidentally left "Choose Your Gender" as a valid gender choice

prison labor is slave labor

This has been the intended outcome of all election policy since suffrage for women and non-whites, as a necessary corrective to maintain capitalist power. The moment "democracy" was extended to the working class it became necessary to make it an illusion. Capitalists will not be voted out of power.

Living a good life is the easy part, actually: you should do exactly what you want, as much as you can, and not worry about the rest. The hard part, so hard most people never manage it, is figuring out what you want, and then continuing to figure it out instead of assuming you haven't changed.

The only tricky one is the last one, because sex work is actually more closely tied to slavery and human trafficking than other forms of reproductive labor; but this is not because of anything inherent to sex. Rather, it's because of the necessity of keeping sex workers marginalized to control them.

male socialization is when your parents give you all the love in the world but you still grow up with cpstd from neglect because the person they loved wasnt really you, just a shell you were puppeteering to make everyone happy except yourself

It's really fun! And gay! You can wear a funny helmet and stab things too!! Show me a gamer who doesn't like to put on a funny helmet and stab things and I'll show you a fake gamer

People need to abandon this idea that the governing mechanisms belonging to the ruling class can be used against them

The human brain can, backed by millions and millions of years of complex social evolution and with a great deal of training, carry out some of the simpler operations of computation, just like a computer can, with millions and millions of operations and highly complex algorithms, approximate some

Recently I built a new Famicom with the OpenFC project and I love how it turned out! This project lets you build your own Famicom using mostly new parts, and has a number of improvements while still replicating the original design. Check out the installation video here: youtu.be/V8x1_Q33Uts

A dictator is just what you call someone whose foundation of power you either disapprove or have yet to understand

US "journalists" learning for the first time that this shit is not a game I see

shoutout to one of the greatest tweets of all time

"Fallen child, you have not reached your desire. The cruel hands of fate yet grasp it from you. I have brought you to this hidden place of the earth, where you may take refuge and counsel, and try once more. Seek my mark. I will be here for you, until you have broken the chains that bind you." -K

Someone write a thesis on how the growth of games as a medium was conditioned by the Hollywood/advertisement media complex

How's that vibe coding working out for you Bluesky?? *app crashes all day*

I am unsympathetic to the suffering of anticommunists; and if forced to be honest, I would admit that this is partially out of spite. But it's important to remember that, in the end, all the "victims of communism" chose to be victims. All of them, down to the very last, had the option to give up and

Man loving the kind of music I love kinda sucks lol

Welp, looks like Hungary is *royally* fucked

“the pharaoh’s tomb is cursed! the necromancer’s ring is cursed! the witch’s grimoire is cursed!” that’s how you sound. everything is fucking cursed with you bro. i don’t care. i’m taking this skull.

Yep, that's about the size of it 😢

Ok I've played it now and it's a good'un. Gate says they're obsessed with platformer mechanics and wanted to create a game that felt ideal to them and the story checks out. I've only played a bit so far but it looks like it's gonna be a master class in game design economy

NEXT WEDNESDAY! The Maryland Coalition to Stop the Camps (of which GBDSA is a member) is holding a rally to demand no ICE concentration camps in Maryland! 📅 Wednesday, April 15th at 9am 📍 Garmatz Federal District Courthouse, 101 W Lombard St ✅ RSVP at bit.ly/April15Hearing

This actually highlights one of the major*attraction* points of LLMs for the fascist movement behind pushing them: it allows them to bypass a huge number of obstacles and steps in fabricating a new shared reality for people, a propaganda shortcut the likes of which Goebbels would have shot rope to

Sorry, why would we reckon with the random opinion of some nobody again?? I'm confused

"All authors are using AI now." Not true! In a forgotten corner of the interior cosmos, past each cowardly warning scrawled and scratched on the labyrinth walls, ichorous dew bubbles from the uttermost depths, guarded like the skaldic mead and offered in solemn compact only to those horny enough

Wouldn't dream of it, the chaotic little fuckers are an inspiration to us all

paul denton: telling a cashier that a bomb has been planted and everyone needs to evacuate out of the Circle K seems like a pretty mean spirited april fool's prank, JC. jc denton, ransacking the candy shelves: what's april fool's

The conflict between communism and capitalism is literally the most morally black and white issue that exists in the real world today. There is no gray. Capitalism is evil, communism is good. Period.

If you summed up every single unjust death under every communist movement since the ideology first became an active political force it would not even register as statistically significant compared to the number of unjust deaths under capitalism in the same time period

Oh SHI-

But it's a great idea if you're a slaveowning band of bourgeois conquistadors looking to ensure that the government they are about to found will never, ever allow your exclusive hold on the ultimate power will be threatened by the limited democratic elements you have been forced to admit to it

Kobold facts: kobolds are fond of storytelling, weaving tales incredible-and mostly true-of their dragon, their warren and their own accomplishments. Dragons never pose more regally than when they are being regaled by their own kobolds about things they may or may not have actually done.

Happy Trans Day of Visibility ❤️🏳️‍⚧️❤️

Hi, I'm Terra, and as a generally masc-presenting "AMAB" non-binary person I am the most invisible gender there is. I don't feel like making a big deal about it because it never does any good, but if you can spare the time and effort try to remember we also exist on this day of trans visibility.

Controversial opinion: I love Nine Sols but Red Candle reserved to have their next game smacked down by the PRC government. All they had to do was *not* hide a racist, fascist meme in the game's assets and they would have been fine. I don't even know why people defended them

This is why I keep fucking telling leftists not to get confused about the global pecking order: Israel works for the US, not the other way around. Yes, the Israeli government has more influence over US law makers than YOU do, but that's because you don't matter at all, not because Israel runs the US
