A glorious bit of How It Works here, being said openly in public

Exclusive with @AlexDooler @DNair5
UAE officials have warned the UK government that the severity of Man City's punishment could undermine their appetite for future grand-scale commitments in Britain, according to people familiar with the matter
They consider the Premier League's actions to have an influence on the bilateral state relationship, the people said, asking not to be identified discussing undisclosed information
The extraordinary pressure comes after Andy Burnham faced criticism, including from within government, for saying Man City's Abu Dhabi owners should not be disqualified specifically because of the investment they bring to Britain

Roman Sands RE:Build review - Werken tot de wereld vergaat
Roman Sands RE:Build combineert een bizar baantje in een vaporwave resort met psychologische horror, puzzels en een sterk mysterie. Maar is de herhaling het waard?

some of the paratopic: overdub response mildly irritating - the game presents itself & does quite a few things in (some subtle, some not) different ways to the original; it does this deliberatly. its ok if that doesnt resonate with you, but ffs give us the credit to know what we're doing lmao.

This new Paratopic really sticks with you, just like the original To me it reads as a story about addiction, decay, fruitless repetition set among the ribs of a dead industry, poking out of the landscape I see glimpses of Prince of Darkness and Videodrome in this, but the voice is definitely unique

One of the best games I've ever played. Had to take a break mid-stream and smoke a bowl to make me feel *more* in touch with reality than how it left me by the end. Followed it up with the Paratopic remake and holy shit, y'all at @arbitrarymetric.bsky.social are absolute treasures, thank you so much

one of my fave smears currently in the game is when betty yanks harold to get his attention when you meet the boomers. happens quickly right when the namecard cut happens so a lil hard to fully notice but hopefully your brain did!

I am finally able to share the key art I produced for Hot Dogs, Horseshoes & Hand Grenades 2! Thanks so much to @rustltd.com for trusting me to do this. It was really fun and a huge honour working together to come up with an image to capture the vibes of this game 🌭
Digital illustration of a brutalist facility with six human-sized cartoon hot dogs armed with various guns posed amid gunfire, explosions, flying debris, and robots. The central hot dog figure is the protagonist and wears a blue hooded jacket over a shirt and tie, cargo pants, and glasses. It wields a pistol and a red scanner, and has a bagpack bursting with junk.

fictional ad for j. cowe milk. it declares "who says never meet your hero?" the j. cowe milkman (a cow in a milkmans uniform) is SHOCKED at seeing an anthropomorphized bottle of milk in a pair of slacks. both are drawn in a 50s modernist cartoon style. the ad concludes "find j. cowe milk at any store next exit!"
