I have been playing Armored Core 6 and have adored it. EXCEPT how they have missions that are an either/or choice and the only way to know is the MINISCULE symbol and wording they used to label them. I literally didn't see it until what I believe is the end of the game.

I am gutted to hear this. I listened to this trio religiously and Adam's sensibilities really jibed with mine and I loved his sense of humor. They were a huge influence on me starting podcasting myself and I am really very sad to learn he's gone so young. My condolences to all of his loved ones.

I will never get over how long it took Werner Herzog to get an inkling that John Waters may be a homosexual. What a gem. youtu.be/m9P_sxaaMJE?...

Benoit Blanc makes a discovery

The immersion in this game is outstanding

Greenland's biggest source of funding is Denmark sending them money. 90% of their exports are fish. Talk about a welfare state M I RITE? en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Greenland

Johnny Depp is playing Scrooge in an upcoming version of A Christmas Carol directed by Ti West. Not only is this dire casting, the fact it's not Christopher Walken makes me angry. Can't get Walken? How about: Willem Dafoe Michael Shannon Peter Capaldi Idris Elba Jacob Elordi

Imagining a guy named Rich carrying this around a bar wearing a top hat

If you help me find the time to play the two Alan Wake games I'll skip wishlisting and go right to pre-order.

Do you ever see something and it made you wonder if you were experiencing slow brain death and any time everything would just fade to white like at the end of Total Recall?

Live now! Gonna be playing some Silksong for a little, why don't you all come join me? www.twitch.tv/caseyexplosion

First CES panel. Intuit CMO Thomas Ranese is proud of his company's integration with OpenAI, which involves giving AI read/write access to tax data. Since prompt injection attacks are unavoidable, I asked him who will be liable when customer data is exposed: Intuit, OpenAI, etc? He had no idea.

That feeling when I'm not sure if I've skipped through the ads for other podcasts before the one I actually want to listen to because it's a bunch of white men who all sound the same.

Was watching Constantine and Rachel Weisz has a dire American accent that is so beneath her as an actor. We Brits do these dreadful US accents where we just lower our register and try a gravely affect. So in Constantine it just sounded like ahe was doing an impression of Keanu the whole time. Odd.

Igual alguien me puede callar la boca,pero no recuerdo ni una sola novela de ciencia ficción que anticipase a la IA como una tecnología que, antes de tiranizarnos o llevarnos a los confines del cosmos, destruiría la convivencia, la creatividad y la economía de la manera en que lo está haciendo.

It took me *checks calendar* zero days to fail the #JanuaryPagesChallenge

There are many things to love about Rami’s top 10 for 2025 but this is one of my favourites.

Angela Bassett in Strange Days appreciation post

The final scene played out in This Is Spinal Tap and I started to cry. Then the credits started and I was laughing through the tears because it might be the best part of the whole movie.

Truly one of the most underrated wrestlers, he deserved better.

Routine is great. If you liked games like Soma and Outlast, this fits in really nicely there. I do agree that it would be cool for this to have a story mode that spares having the shit out of you if that's not your bad. For me, the terror I felt made the ending all the more cathartic. It good.

Look. I have ADHD okay?

Another addition to my Cool Stuff From 2025 is the music video for Abracadabra by Lady Gaga. The cinematography is exquisite and the choreography literally made me gasp when I first saw it. A perfect video from one of pop music'a most creative artists. Gaga remains on a different level.

Very sad to say it seems Mike Fossey, aka Mike F. has died. Truly one of the funniest posters of all time and a talented artisan. Had been friends online for many years, but I got to hang out a couple times at shows in Boston and he was funny and sweet in real life too.

My 2025 Cool Things Review starts with the return of Pendulum. I got into them WAY after their mainstream success but these guys were way ahead of their time in how they blended genres Their new album Inertia is outstanding and their collaborations? *chef's kiss* youtu.be/4Ve3tinp3yA?...

Happy holidays to all that celebrate it

The Muppets Christmas Carol still hits, y'all. Probably in part because the very concept of Tiny Tim has been devastating to me since childhood. Is it empathy or is it trauma? Traumathy?

I had an idea for a masked pro wrestler and Iove it so much I want someone to use it. It's Santa Claus. But he's a heel, he's mean and cheats a lot and has a really bad attitude. Then December hits and he becomes a total babyface, giving out gifts, being jolly etc.

One of my favorite lyrics in a song ever is from Stand and Deliver by Adam and the Ants What's the point of robbery when nothing is worth taking? youtu.be/4B2a6l6wM2k?...

I watch every one of these videos slowly saying "Chiitan, no, please Chiitan. Oh no"

Perform empathy. Please. Perform the fuck out of it. It's so good to act with kindness. I hope it penetrates to a place where you feel it, too, but if you must act some way, act the right way. I'm not here to judge your authenticity, I just want you to be kind, thoughtful, and mortified by meanness.

when some people choose between a weekly injection or daily pill to regulate their hormones so as to align their body with their desired appearance i guess it's no big deal

So, I'd left for my Xmas holiday break by the time this stuff was starting to surface, but RE Expedition 33 being in my GOTY video, I was under the impression it had not used Gen AI in its development, based on part on statements made to the Indie Game Awards (which I helped curate with this year).

get ready to learn about some of the coolest motherfuckers who ever lived: Olaudah Equiano, Granville Sharp and Thomas Clarkson

It's the holiday luncheon at my job today. They suggested we wear something festive. Well my shirt is dedicated to a beloved Christmas film so I'm all set.

"they don't know how to express the idea" here's rian johnson's storyboard for knives out pick up a pencil and a napkin

periodically I'll see a backlash that goes a little too far or seems kinda unfair. i never say anything because i think we need to be kinda unhinged and zealous in our response to this shit. I'd take an honest-to-God crusade against this stuff over letting it proliferate.

This is totally a ME problem and I don't want to cast aspersions on anybody, but I am so tired of seeing people talk about Zulawski's Possession. Incredible performances, arresting visuals, but I just don't like it at all. Totally my opinion but it's become the Basic Bitch Art House Horror Film.

So this has bothered me for a couple of days now. My mother can’t see, so I’ve been reading her Christmas cards for her. Someone included a copy of a typed version of “Twas the Night Before Christmas.” She asked what it was and I got about halfway through the first part and said, “Nope…”

My wife and I watched episode 7 from season 2 of Twin Peaks last night. Yeah, that one. It left an indelible mark on my psyche decades ago and it hasn't lost ANY of that impact in the years since. The fact the show got so goofy in the 2nd season just made the scary stuff more horrifying.

If what they're using AI for is so trivial and unimportant, why fucking bother? If you would just use Google and art books before just carry on using them. You can't pay for AI and then justify using it by saying it's not a big deal. Just hire people like the person I am reskeeting.

One of the greatest pieces of American propaganda is the myth that we are "good and decent people." We can excuse so much horrendous ahit because we've been told endlessly that we're the good guys. We always mean well so it can't be THAT bad, we're a nation composed of good and decent people.

"Luigi Mangione cannot take a bad picture" is rapidly reaching "mass can neither be created nor destroyed" levels of scientific validity

s.team/y25/cfvggdj?... I loved playing through Pacific Drive early in the year, then apparently in September it was basically just Crysis 2 month. Can you guess which months it was too hot in my office to play on my PC?
