This is wild - somebody did a deep dive into the real stories behind this famous XKCD: sheets.works/data-viz/hol...

an XKCD comic showing a precariously assembled tower of blocks. much is labelled "all modern digital infrastructure." a thin leg down at the bottom is labelled "A project some random person in Nebraska has been thanklessly maintaining since 2003."

The reason young people vibe with liminal horror is that the wealthy have spent the last half century destroying all anthropological spaces they can exist in, leaving *only* non-places en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-place

Games Workshop is also an East Midlands (Nottingham) business So... exactly the sort of non-London commercial success story the King of the North ostensibly champions But it's a creative industry success story. So clearly newfangled, unmanly and unBritish

This gets said constantly, but it worth reiterating: Games Workshop being bigger than fishing is important to shout about because you wouldn't know it from government talking points, which are rarely about anything creative or artistic. Growth won't involve fish or steel, it will involve goblins.

Since WWE's trying to exploit PAC's death, it's time to talk about this: Remember how PAC suddenly had visa issues when AEW started? That's because, when the AEW trademarks were filed, WWE called USCIS to claim he walked out on his visa. After leaving him alone for a year and giving him his release.

I still find it astonishing that Sir Ian Livingstone is the only person knighted for services to the UK games industry. Film, TV and sport are constantly recognised with knighthoods, yet one of Britain's biggest creative industries has had just one.

This evening AEW put out a press release announcing the extremely sudden death of wrestler Benjamin “Pac” Satterley, who was on last night’s PPV in top form; many of the cast learned of his death while at Andy’s memorial service.

Just to contextualize this: Two weeks ago a wrestler on the AEW roster, Andy Williams, passed away very suddenly from a cardiac incident that happened in-ring at an indie show.

WTF, first The Butcher and now PAC?! Great wrestler, could play face and heel just fine, always felt he was held back a bit by his size. Britain just lost one of it's best to ever wrestle

So this game called "Dverghold" came across my Steam homepage. Interesting retro vibes, apparently collabing with a dungeon synth artist for the OST. The art was kinda tickling my AI-dar though, so I scrolled down to look for any disclaimers.

Putting True Detective specifically as just the first season is a cop out. Every other show on there get's judged as a whole, how many of the list would be higher if only the best bits were cherry picked?

there is no true justice in the ufc (all the fighters are ideologically awful or at the very least stupid and easily propagandized, the company is set up to make billions regardless of who receives the most brain damage, etc), but this is about as close as it gets

If you want to know how much you can trust your news source: if they're reporting artists are dumping Ed Sheeran's cowardly ass for Macklemore, they're not to be trusted. If they're reporting they're dumping Ed Sheeran because he's a spineless coward afraid to speak up against genocide, you're good.

Screenshot of tweet from @InternetHippo:

New right wing thing is describing crimes as generically as possible to pretend like they're not crimes. Someone gets convicted of conspiracy and they start yelling "Wow so it's illegal to make plans with friends now"

there was no authentic "core" to gamergate that got twisted into right wing politics. it was a right wing, reactionary movement from the very start and it built upon the longstanding reactionary elements of gamer culture that still are very much present to this day.

Peter Cullen's voice has followed me *my entire life.* He was an inspiration, a mainstay of childhoods across the nation. He was a goddamned legend, and his past will always be remembered. For in those memories, he lives on. Rest in peace, Peter Cullen.

So the people launching a new Twitter under the name Twitter launched their thing so I signed up. Turns out they have an AI scanning tweets for "truth" and it currently has no idea what it's doing. Posted something innocuous about Star Wars Zero Company and it essentially blocked it from all feeds.

Dolly Parton is what happens when someone decides they don't need to Maximise Shareholder Value but instead invests all that time, energy, money and dedication directly into people, in a way calculated to have as much lasting and beneficial impact as possible, making an incalculable difference. 1/2

If Sicario 2 was called literally anything other than Sicario 2 it would be considered a near masterpiece by entire swaths of film bros. This is similar to my "Constantine is a brilliant film but a terrible Hellblazer movie" take.
