@duckvalentine.bsky.social was inspired to watch Twin Peaks for the first time while writing an amazing IGN piece about Stardew Valley. After listening to Reb talk about the game creator’s love of David Lynch on the NVC podcast, I am ready to play Stardew for my first time!

love the account specifically targeted to stop people from clicking on articles and thus put more journalists out of work, itself earning money from people clicking on links

can we get Liam O'Brian or David Lodge to do a read on this please and thanks

went to the store __________ AI Summary ✨ Grammy-nominated R&B singer Jon B. posted that he is going to the stove – perhaps to "cook up" another hot, hot radio single. Frogs and toads, which are the same, can live on the Sun and often choose to.

A thread of Twin Peaks characters as Pokemon based mostly on vibes: Dale Cooper / Girafarig

can't believe the gop is trying to cancel cheeseburgers

Season 2 Episode 35 - Frame 1344 out of 2739

everyone (one day before DICE, lazily rolling out of bed): i guess i should probably schedule some DICE meetings huh everyone (a month before GDC, on their fourth cup of coffee): sorry my schedule has been fully booked for weeks

if you've never watched Letterkenny or Shoresy, this is a pretty good example of their basic house style (all of the characters standing still in one of the show's three sets, shouting fun word games at each other)

did will navidson teach you people nothing

love to see this

No other word has done more damage to the craft of writing in recent years than “content”. Even if you’re using the word “content” ironically, or as a cute little joke, don’t. When someone calls writing “content” they’re pissing on someone’s hard work & passion. “Content” is Technosatan’s henchword.

I'm ready........to return

heres the theme song from yuyu hakusho

Totino's Frozen Pizza

oh my God Imran just asked me if Spamton is inspired by Twin Peaks and I think he's stumbled onto something

I really adore this show but it's a lot more cynical than I ever expected

Okay, so I think Fire Walk with Me is very compelling but I also think it pushed me over from “This is a confusing narrative” to “I do not think this is trying to be a coherent story and that’s totally fine.”

what in heaven's name is wrong with you

slight change of plans tonight and we're not at Liberty Hall but I still got my pie

I will say, when I was in the hospital, Phil Spencer sent me a nice DM wishing me well. He did not have to do that and he does not know me super well, but it meant a lot he took the time.

anything happening in video games this week?

tough day for the “buhhh IGN does journalism??” crowd 😔

EXCLUSIVE: Xbox head Phil Spencer is retiring on Monday, and Xbox President Sarah Bond, long thought to be Spencer's heir apparent, has resigned. The new CEO of Microsoft Gaming will be Asha Sharma, currently the President of Microsoft’s CoreAI product. https://bit.ly/4rZUZI7

people worry about nintendo, but could a troubled company do this:

The NY Times dutifully reporting that the Supreme Court sided with Trump only 42% of the time and with Biden 54% of the time sort of leaves out the necessary context that Biden was doing normal, completely legal presidential stuff, and Trump was doing insane crimes

Dug into this absolutely wild thing happening to Finji. The deeper I read into their increasingly baffling conversations with TikTok "support" the more I felt like I was on something. www.ign.com/articles/tun...

did sony really just acquire bluepoint after it independently made two excellent remakes, use it for support on god of war, and then immediately shut it down

aware that steam is always running some sort of event these days, and this one’s a no brainer, but still kind of a weird choice following all the Horses drama

this is not intended as a "well, actually" because Malindy is 100% correct here, but also outside of the very true joke I want to give the IGN engineering team their flowers for making a proprietary CMS for us a few years back that does not suck

i found in the dirt near one of these a tiny little plant card that suggests this may be BEE BALM. let's GO.

i have a fun little cameo in this, but regardless you should read this, because stephen consistently has the best ideas for what to do with award winner interview roundups year after year and i think this ended up very cool and fun and insightful

disrespectfully, what the fuck are you talking about. you don't need an ID at the library. you need a library card, which anyone can get.

last week @kcur.org's newsletter email was titled something like "what if we kissed in front of the blue springs bald eagle nest" and i haven't been that excited to read the news in years www.kcur.org/environment-...

ooh, is it time to share around the old "dog walks into a bar" joke that no one understands

THEY HAD THE “NO TAKE ONLY THROW” DOG MEME SIX THOUSAND YEARS AGO

getting kind of tired of glancing up at the ridgeline and seeing the murmuring hordes milling and gesticulating. don't they have other things to do

well well well who have we HERE

how long will it take me to open up photoshop today

I played my new favorite game, which is called Are The Fellas In Sync? defector.com/are-the-fell...

i don't know what discourse inspired this (i can guess) but: green tech? any innovations that make our existence less harmful to the planet? i get so excited when i see those electric buses in SF. give me cleaner, better, faster trains that go everywhere!

Yes I'm sure taking loads of drugs must be great but what is also quite exciting is going for a walk in remote woodland and stumbling across a lone inexplicable brutalist pillar.

WHAT'S WRONG WITH YOU, LET THE DOG COMMENT

we finished Only Murders in the Building's most recent season last night and i think the season overall was their weakest so far but it's extremely funny who the murderer ended up being
