Imagine looking at the media landscape—music, books, movies—and concluding that it would be better if it were all simply infinite reflections of yourself, if you never had to be exposed to another personality, another experience, another life. Just you, you, you. Sounds fucking horrifying.

Pretty much proving that the reason why Sony doesn't want to release physical PS5 games anymore is because of that disc exploit that was found on the PS4. youtu.be/WOva7vxaJXg

Bruh! I haven't paid attention to The Odyssey movie, but can someone tell me if the monsters in the film are just giant marionettes, or are these in place for some CGI BS? I would love to see a modern film with Clash of the Titans-esque stopanimation.

I'm just happy that the figure 8 web worked with my existing code (and just had to add a manual normal flip field to make the player orient properly.) If I can get my tokens under control, this might actually get released. #pico8 #retrogaming
