Why are boomers so obsessed with accountability these days? Its like some projection for the crazy shit they pulled as they die laughing on a mattress full of money.

Man fuck this AI with its natural language attempts, thinking it knows anything, owns anything that it didn't suffer with evolution for thousands of years to develop and reify into the elastic, composite, diachronic thing we have today. Its undead pantomime. Leave us alone. You're dead already.

Look guys, buy one of those android handhelds, or pick up the SuperStation One, get a CRT from Facebook marketplace or your local electronics waste establishment, and just get out. Get out of the rat race of wealth extraction.

We're in a gaming recession, the kind that makes you wonder if the gaming history you lived through up to this point was really a sort of primordial pre-history, and the future will be so unrecognizable and imperturbable to explain to your grandchildren.

Once you realize that Stephen King introduces colloquialisms in the same way (official term, x, which Y often calls Z) you cannot unhear it. It is everywhere.

Strange to be sitting here on the sidelines, now that ive enjoyed my time with Marathon, wishing I had started playing Destiny 2 all those years ago. Because it may be the case that the Bungie i love for the past 2 decades+ is over and will never come back.

You rarely see these public personalities say things like, "I'm learning, I was wrong, I'm sorry." I guess it's because it's not on brand and it's not a good look. But these kinds of phrases are important for every day life out here in the real world.

Everyone's shrugging their shoulders wondering what we should do, when if we simply taxed rich people a lot, we would have money to do the most basic things we take to mean society.

Gaming has gone from physical to physical with digital goods to digital to digital with digital goods to digital with digital goods that may not work universally with the digital good. The diminishing returns rivals Zeno's Paradox.

Zizek's concept of "too late to awaken" seems totally apt right now. It easily feels like we slipped into apocalyptic behavior and didnt even recognize when we crossed the threshold.

4 days ago, NPR reported that the Trump administration is still withholding, in violation of the Epstein files statutes, 37 pages of documents that implicate him in the rape of a child. This should end his presidency. www.npr.org/2026/03/05/n...

Justice Department publishes some missing Epstein files related to Trump

The Justice Department has published additional Epstein files related to allegations that President Trump sexually abused a minor after an NPR investigation found dozens of pages were withheld.

My whole life, advocating war has been fed to me as “the adult position,” akin to drinking your coffee black or reading the business section of the newspaper. Let’s be very clear — war is the childish nonsense of impulsive destructive idiots playing baby-brained video games with real human lives.

It's sad when the gaming environment you grew up in is no longer sustainable. I know the burden of proof is on me to let go and let gaming become whatever it needs to, but it's hard to unsee the amount of hurt and anguish that came as a result.

People I talk to are under no illusions that the Epstein conspiracy is and will likely be the biggest political event of our times. We're going to have to explain this in history class to students 50 years from now and we'll have to say, "well, um, you see..."

Was reading War and Peace and I was shocked to find how voyeuristic the young men are on the eve of battle, and it made me realize one benefit of video games is their spectacle with the ability of young people to see violent things without the need to carry them out with their bodies.

If someone had told me ten years ago that in 2026, there could be evidence of the president raping and threatening to kill children, and he would *still* be allowed to stay in office, I would have politely asked them to put down the meth pipe.

Everyone should proceed on the assumption that Donald J. Trump is proven to be a child rapist in the Epstein files. If that assumption were incorrect, Trump would have released all the files by now to prove his innocence.

Reading Hesse's "Steppenwolf" and the idea that one goal of philosophy is to suffer now as an individual what thousands will suffer later is such an incredible way of thinking about it.

The fact that the United States is sitting on a green revolution so big that it could rejuvenate our lives and put us possibly on a relative utopian arc and would rather instead shoot, sex traffick, and poison its own citizens certainly reminds me that we will never be modern.

Absolutely insane to me that preventative care, the kind that would help our medical system, and our people, is much harder to get than it ought to be.

This Atlantic piece on Pam Bondi, wow. Some people I guess just get subsumed into conflating money, and "meaning," and eventually...lose any moral compass? It's sad if it weren't one of the most intense moments in American political history, and therefore I can't sympathize.
