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
kayinnasaki

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.

A New Color (1/5🧵)
Page 1: A man is walking home, smoking a cigarette, being quietly trailed by a UFO above him. As he enters his apartment, two aliens watch from inside the ship. Alien 1, who has a large head, says, “that’s him. Let’s move.” Page 2: The man walks upstairs as the aliens watch from the entrance of the building. The man enters his apartment and greets his little dog. Suddenly there is a knock at the door.Page 3: he peers through his peephole, and sees the two aliens standing in the hallway. Alien 1 is holding a briefcase. From behind him, the voice of alien one: “don’t scream.” Page 4: The aliens are seated across the room on the man’s couch. Sadie is in her bed next to them. Alien 1 says, “you’re not in any danger. Have a seat.” The man looks at his dog and thinks, “sadie is unusually calm.” Alien 1: don’t scream, or it’s a problem.

Discworld QOTD, from Night Watch
But the helmet has gold decoration, and the bespoke armorers had made a new gleaming breastplate with useless gold ornamentation on it. Sam Vimes felt like a class traitor every time he wore it. He hated being thought of as one of those people that work stupid ornamental armor. It was gilt by association.

(Calvin's dad meme:)

Browsing kink art? I'll tell you something interesting.

There's two types of kinks: squeezing, and lack of responsibility.
Vore? Squeezing. Hypno? Responsibility.

"Yeah..."

Inflation? Squeezing. Petrified? Responsibility.
Bondage is both.
AB/DL is one part responsibility and one part squeezing.
Counterintuitively, maids are lack of responsibility.

a six panel comic of me sitting at a counter and thinking.

i think “someday i’ll write a comic that fixes things”

“something pithy and organic”

“that ends exactly when it should”

i then sit unmoving for three more panels.

END.

Three panel comic. Panel 1: a small group of friends is hanging out indoors. Two guys are on the couch, holding video game controllers. A third guy steps into the room and says, “can someone move their car?” Panel 2: he continues, “there’s an impossible device blocking me.” In the driveway, a beige car is parked in front of a glossy, unfathomable biomechanic vehicle. Panel 3: back in the video game room, a spindly, three-eyed alien creature steps from across the room with a car key in hand. The alien says, “that’s me, bro— I’ll move.” One of the guys on the couch throws up his hands because the alien is blocking the TV.
