silent hill townfall's music is excellent - among the best in the series. the gameplay is great except for a few areas. the atmosphere is wonderfully eerie and tense. i really want to love townfall. but then shit like this happens and my eyes roll into the back of my skull

wikipedia article on the story of silent hill townfall that reads: "After defeating the monster representing his guilt, Simon..."

i'm sorry but the entire time reckless ben is getting arrested i can't help but feel like we're all the fat cat in the background just watching this shit go down

raw footage of reckless ben getting arrested by the american fork police department dated 2026-03-11 at 17:49. ben and his friends are being taken into custody following reports of death threats by ammon mcneff and reports of stolen merchandise by josh johnson who both work for the franchise bricks and minifigs, but that's not important. what is important is the giant cat in the background of the footage, lazily reclining on concrete and watching the arrest go down

For every journalist who is like this: What is the benefit of you over Al? You cost more, you write worse and the one advantage you have - the capacity to generate original ideas - produces this.
Al is slop, but you are also slop, and the Al slop is informative and pleasant.

Palestine is the idea that the multiethnic, multiracial, multireligious democracy of Israel should be dismantled by removing/killing seven million Jews, then replaced with a 100% Arab Islamist dictatorship.
This idea is affirmed by every faction of self-proclaimed Palestinians.

Zionism is the belief that Jews have a right to a Jewish state *to the exclusion of anyone else* namely, Palestinians, in Palestine. There is no Multicultural or Plurinational Zionism. Its a belief rooted in ethnic cleansing which is exactly what was done to Palestinians in 1948

btw the company behind silent hill: ascension (genvid) has fully transformed into an ai slop generator. they've also made a 22 minute film called 'the seeker' using their ai tool and i'm real tempted to check it out and report back on how bad it is

genvid's site that reads: "GENVID. Built with Provenance, by Professionals
Genvid implements the production rigor that professional animators and filmmakers expect: structured pipelines, role-based collaboration, version control, and approval workflows from script through first assembly.
Every asset in the system carries full provenance, content credentials, and an immutable audit trail, aligned to MPA content security standards and built for enterprise-scale teams.
We are a model-agnostic agentic system, so your teams orchestrate whichever foundation models fit the project and swap freely as the market shifts, without ever being locked to a single provider."

"Provenance
Every asset in Genvid carries a complete, auditable chain of custody from first generation to final delivery, built on C2PA, IPTC, and OMC standards that studios and distributors already trust"

sometimes i question why i'm still working on my video about 'the medium' and then i see people desperately trying to repair the game's reputation with half-baked plot summaries and my doubts disappear

about the medium ending and what actually happens:

Spoiler: The Medium message and ending
The ending of the game literally ends with the father having found a way to cross to the spirit world after spending more than a decade researching it in order to save his daughter, and we already know through environmental storytelling that time can be manipulated/rewound in there. The ending of The Medium is an obvious red herring. "You can't always save everyone" is uttered by the daughter's father spirit version ( his tulpa if you will) who was imprisoned for a decade without connection to the real Thomas, so he thinks there is nothing that can be done because he lacks a decade of context. But Thomas actually found a way to bring his physical body to the spirit world where the creature (the maw) exists, meaning the ending makes you think nothing can be done, but thinking about the journey, the clock and clock ticking imagery and the post-credits recontextualizes that both Marianne and Thomas both very much love Lilianne and will do anything for her. The journey literally shows that Lilianne is a hugely selfless and self-sacrificial person who doesn't want to hurt anybody which is why her remaining family works hard to help her out of what she thinks is a pre-destined outcome. It's just a red herring and a cliffhanger that is taken at face value...in a psychological horror game. The game is about family bonds surviving through the ages. Silent Hill 2's message is fives time worse with Angela Orosco's outcome too so it's even less comprehensible to see the latch on to the medium in that respect
