So, I uh started drawing up a crossover. Here's a one-page gag

Five-panel comic:
Panels 1-2: panning shot from left to right of Green Lantern Jon Stewart eating lunch in the Watchtower cafeteria. Across the table (panel 2), sits the Flash, Wally West. Between them, oddly enough, is a Robot Master, Quickman. He's just watching
Jon, talking to Wally: "I can't believe a kid like you had never played a Megaman game. I know I still fire up my copy of Megaman 2 on my days off. Even if I still can't get past those lasers without the Time Stopper."
Wally: "Listen GL, I was a Sonic kid because Genesis does what Nintendon't."
Panel 3: Batman approaches their table, holding a tray.
Batman: "I did a Buster-only speedrun for Gotham's All Games Done Quick."
Panel 4: the other three characters staring in shock
Panel 5: Closeup on Batman
Batman: "It was for charity."

If you leave short story-sized comments in your code, it should be to explain something so messed up that you need to leave a message to yourself, Memento-style See: the first half of a comment block I left in the weapon code of Reelism 2

A massive comment block in the Basketball weapon code for Reelism 2. It reads, in part:

"Abandon hope, all ye who enter the Splot_BasketballProjectile section!

During the Early Excess period for Reelism 2, the Basketball was extremely prone to crashing. This was probably the most frequent piece of feedback that we received. We tried many, many, many times to fix it, and for that reason, I must tell you the story of what happened.

The Basketball was originally split between two objects: a projectile actor, which handled the collisions with monsters and geometry, and a WeaponGiver actor with a larger radius, which is what the player picked up and made the ball easier to grab in the air. This configuration ran into an issue where, randomly, GZDoom would crash immediately after the ball was thrown or dunked. The problem stuck around for months, even persisting into the first public release of Reelism 2, much to our frustration.

As far as we can tell, the underlying problem was related to how the two Basketball actors would need to constantly reference each other. If one actor was removed from play in the middle of the other actor's script, there was a chance that GZDoom would crash by trying to reference the properties of an object that didn't exist anymore. We could never get the two actors in sync, no matter how many safeguards we added.

The obvious solution to this problem was to combine the two Basketball objects into one actor, which is what you'll see below. However, I was reluctant to do this at first, because we would lose the expanded WeaponGiver hitbox. The Basketball is a pretty small object, so I was hestitant to cut that feature.

I started to implement the trimmed-down version of the Basketball on the evening of December 2, 2020 when the solution dawned on me: We could still use a hitbox actor, as long as it did NOTHING."

Ideally, code comments should explain why you did something and also express how wonderful or terrible it is to use a computer (comments are from various contributors to Reelism 2)

"ohh FUCK we gotta figure out the angle of the wall we hit. fuckkkk"

"Prototyping while enjoying an alcohol on a 41c/105f degree day. Ignore or unfuck at your leisure."

"This has to be here to prevent a compile failure on startup due to return mismatch. I hate it so much."

Comment on a high score parsing handler: "guhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh"

This is why Autism Speaks is so fucking dangerous and toxic. They have always treated Autism like a disease needing a *cure* and unfortunately AS is the most well known Autism "Charity". The commercial alone that they put out years back should have had them dissolve their org in shame.

There are so many people, so many, that love film and want to dedicate their whole lives to making films, in front of the camera, behind it, in editing suites and casting rooms and makeup trailers. And that these locusts can come in and just devour the industry, take it from us all, is devastating.

Supper Mario Broth @mariobrothblog.bsky.social · 13h

In the Mario Teaches Typing games, Mario never criticizes the player for underperforming and tries to be understanding and supportive. According to Charles Martinet, that was his initiative, as he felt being negative would go against the core principles of Mario's character.

In the Mario Teaches Typing games, even if the player does badly or underperforms compared to previous attempts, Mario will try to be understanding instead of critical:
Uh-oh, that wasn't quite as fast as the last time.
Hmm, are your fingers getting tired? Mine would be by now... if I had any. (laughs)
Charles Martinet, speaking at TooManyGames Convention 2021:
I got this marvelous opportunity to do Mario Teaches Typing. And when I got the script and I'm in the studio - I'm reading the script for the first time, there were things like "You failed!"
"That wasn't very good." "That was much worse... that was bad."
And I was reading that and I said, "Do you mind if I just, like, play with these words a little bit and just change them around?" because, you know, I never say "no" and I never say anything negative as Mario... and the producer graciously said "Sure, go for it!"
And so it became "Oh, that was good, but I know you can do even better!" "Oh, nice one but let's try again!" so it was always uplifting and always trying to be positive. And I think that that is the essence of the character to me - it's that love and that joy.

a little louder for the cheap seats in the back

One of the biggest myths is that men rape by mistake. Like, "Oh, they need consent training." But research is very clear: Sexual violence is not a mistake. It is an intentionally made decision by people who know they don't have consent. They just don't prioritize consent over things like status, power, domination, and sexual gratification.
For my research, I got a certificate of confidentiality from the National Institutes of Health, so my notes couldn't be subpoenaed. One of the reasons I call them perpetrators in my work is because every single person I interviewed confessed in that context. The first question I would ask them was, "When you received that email from Title IX that you were under investigation, did you know what it was about?" Every perpetrator I interviewed said "yes." If sexual assault were a miscommunication, you would be wondering, What have I possibly done wrong? That is not the way that any of them reacted because they knew.
