Someone just reblogged this on tumblr with this tag and I just fucking died I've been on this shit for over a decade and it's only getting worse

written about this before but whatever.

Videogames as an artform have a problem with nostalgia. Not that people shouldn’t have nostalgia. Or that games shouldn’t draw from the past. But instead the weight we give to nostalgia.

When people go back to enjoy old games, we assume it’s a nostalgia thing. Do people assume that with books? Or movies? Or music? People certainly do go back in time with those mediums for nostalgia! It happens! I know when my sister is listening to certain cheesy old boyband pop or punk she’s often having a musical nostalgia trip! That’s cool! But we still don’t ASSUME, CONSTANTLY thats why people go back to stuff.

People like old stuff because it’s cool and interesting. It’s historic. People go watch Metropolis still, but how many people alive could even be nostalgic for a movie like that?

I almost want to see the word Nostalgia excised from discussions about video games – not because nostalgia is bad but because we over use it to the point where it’s actually harmful I think.

I mean I made IWBTG and am making an NES style game right now and even for me, the obsession with ‘nostalgia’ seems crazy.

Old stuff is cool. I know this because I see a lot of you kids on my tumblr feed talking about games I know you didn’t grow up with. It’s like finding your parents record or CD collection. Thinking the primary greatness of old games is bringing back memories of eating cereal and playing games on a saturday morning is a great injustice, even if those memories for some are perfectly worthwhile things.

Not watching Harry Potter won’t hurt her financially but it will hurt the ghouls who chose to work with her and the fascist-backed companies crowing about acquiring the IP and probably also her feelings. All worthy goals.

Thing is the whole thing is premised on the idea a child should need a six figure loan to keep going to school rather than educating people being a public benefit.

it is deeply funny (read: extremely not funny) how the spreadsheet that aaron posted about how hard it is to be the head of trust & safety includes multiple (!) examples of him being told to "enjoy the camps" and related expressions. Almost Like That Sentiment Is Always Bad, Aaron.

RIP one of the best wrestlers 🇨🇦 will ever see. The following is a few matches of Eddie Osbourne's I was able to record and archive. For those unfamiliar with EO, I highly recommend going through his near endless body of work. His effects on BC & Canadian Wrestling will be felt for generations

English Teacher here. I never have gotten into following pro sports. I just am not hooked because for me, there isnt a story. There are just things that happen. But Wrestling can really get me, because it is a story. Wrestling isn't real, but, it can be true. Tell people you love them while you can.

This is absolutely insane. I've met Canadian wrestlers who have spent the better part of a decade trying and failing to get a visa. Uno obtaining visas for TWO DOZEN people opens up the door not just to them but a lot of potential future Canadian wrestlers. 🫡🍁

This is what the public is sick of. Democrats who are elected to office with political power and sit on their hands and simply shrug as society continues to collapse. "What am I supposed to do?"

I feel the rest of the world (Americans included) have no idea of how aggressively the US is pushing to make Latin America into a giant colony. Every day we get news about political interference, increase in military presence, absurd trade demands, online propaganda, Venezuela being pillaged, etc

Headline from one of Brazil's biggest newspapers that reads:
Brazilian Intelligence Agency (Abin) warns the government and the Superior Electoral Court (TSE) about the 'critical' level of escalating US pressure against Brazil in the elections.

twitter became unusable for me when musk killed tweetdeck. since then it's only become a worse and worse user experience, to say nothing of how it's explicitly a far right propaganda machine. all that's keeping a lot of people there now is familiarity and hollow feelings of clout

One of the things that also pisses me off is that in a vacuum, this technology is value-neutral. It's development in conjunction with the profit motive is what causes the worst aspect of it to manifest. The problem is not the technology itself, but is and has always been Capitalism.
