My coworker and I are playing a game we're calling "Allegations". Look up a random man on Wikipedia, and see if there's a section in their Wiki titled "Allegations"...

I always think it's funny when fantasy stories reference coffee or tea (camellia sinensis), specifically, because it's such a microcosm of colonialism and cultivar selection so very spefic to our reality

When I was a kid, I wished I could play more Magic the Gathering with my friends, but I feel like I got hit with a Monkey's Paw, because it's, like, "Ok, but it's Commander...."

I've argued with people who say they separate the art from the artist (not possible while she's using actively her money to hurt the trans community). or that they don't like "not being allowed" to watch something. but I think this really comes down to what you want to stand for

I've fully trophied Dark Souls and Demon Souls; ranked Pure Platinum in Bayonetta; S Ranked Mega Man Zero; beat every Gold Stake in Balatro. I've got credentials. But clearing Night Mode in all the Rhythm Heaven mini-games feels like the most daunting thing in the world...

I put on a "throwback" hip hop playlist, and was expecting songs from the 80's and 90's, not the 2000's 😭

Israel is giving Trump's former campaign manager millions of dollars to fill the internet with pro-Israel articles written by AI, not so that anyone will actually read them, but so that *LLMs will train on them* & regurgitate their perspective. This is the future of the information environment.

Former Trump campaign manager Brad Parscale is overseeing an operation posting hundreds of blog posts on behalf of Israel, with the goal of infiltrating artificial intelligence.

If videogames really are "art", and not just consumer products, then like music, I'm sure we will see a resurgence to physical media like we did when MP3s killed CDs and LPs made a resurgence. If anything, the market should self-correct if there is truly demand, right?

I still have a PS2, PS3, and PSP that I use frequently; I have a large physical library (backlog) of physical games from the PS1-PS3; many still sealed. But I have not bought a Playstation since like 2009, and I will never buy a physical game ever again. Like, I simply do not have the room...

Unfortunately, my local library is using machine generated images for their promotions. The results are about as funny as they are disturbing and sad

Don't like that #MTGSOS added the Bard and Sorcerer subtypes to Strixhaven. STX only had Cleric, Druid, Shaman, Warlock, or Wizard—1 for each color, and each school favored a set of types. Adding more feels like a retcon and evokes an asymmetry aversion in me. cards.scryfall.io/large/front/...

Creatures having "prepared" spells is cool, but not an entirely new concept. If you're looking for creatures that can "cast" iconic spells, for your deck, check out the "Magus" cycle scryfall.com/search?q=nam... #MTGSOS

Sad to see the Ides of March becoming commercialised like this. I really feel like we're losing track of the true spirit of the holiday. It's not about how many knives you can stick in a tyrant all at once, it's about the whole community coming together to stab the tyrant as many times as possible.

If GTAVI doesn't have delivery bots that you can beat up and harass, and driverless cars that lock you out when you try to jack them, what are we even doing?

The taboo to not talk about politics is THE SAME THING as HR telling you to not discuss salary. It only advantages the people in charge. Talk politics. Talk salaries. Blow up the system.

I decided to go with the games I think impacted me the most, by release date order, but ran out of room by 2004 lol I could easily fill out another 9 games from post 2004 (though maybe including 2002's Animal Crossing). my9games.com/s/5df8b3519c...
Gran Turismo 4, Katamari Damacy, Parappa the Rapper, Street Fighter Alpha 2, Final Fantasy VI, Super Mario World, Tetris, Quest for Glory I, Dragon Quest

That my 9 games thing doesn't have Magic Arena. Huh. It's not my absolute fav or anything, but I've sunk the most hour into that, by far, so it's definitely "me".

The party went ahead with dozens of political staffers as guests, who sang “Happy Birthday” to Chavez-DeRemer, who then blew out the candles on a birthday cake. After the party, her chief of staff, Jihun Han, sent a memo to the entire department threatening “serious legal consequences” against any staffers who spoke with the press.

Weeks afterward, Chavez-DeRemer told the House Appropriations Committee, “I did not have a birthday party.” Ultimately, though, the Times obtained a photo from a party guest showing Chavez-DeRemer blowing out the candles on her birthday cake.

Miami streets are now just a bunch of underpaid immigrants on scooters and small delivery bots, delivering smash burgers and poke bowls to NY transplants, with the intermittent tourist taking a selfie in front of a Bored Ape mural

i urge y'all to watch old interviews & debates in your free time. you'll see that we've been fighting these battles for a loooong time. we don't have to reinvent the wheel... the ancestors left playbooks & we have the benefit of knowing what didn't work to figure out what may work now

I think it's funny that Yakuza is often regarded as an "open world, 3D, action-adventure", but River City Ransom is often seen as just a "beat 'em up", not an "open world, 2D, action-adventure".

No to this. I get it, but emotional awareness is important—especially in terms of anger and is probably most important that men question their feelings of anger because it too often goes unresolved

Very surprised that the most compelling game I played this year was Monster Hunter Freedom. Not the best—but it's just got a very chill loop. Especially on a handheld. It's so easy to pick up, boot up from sleep mode, and do the thing. Just, like, anytime. I love it

Really grinds my gears that the word "meme" has just become synonymous with "joke". Or worst, when ppl just call any comic strip a "meme" Not even Milhouse is a meme, what makes you think your stupid Magic the Gathering commander deck is?

Like with sex work or drugs, criminalizing asset trading (or pushing it into a black market) would likely do more harm than good. Fucking Mark is just using the ol' "it's too complicated, so let's not bother regulating it" trick. But we can. We can do the work

Hey remember when the CDC dropped 6 of the 8 foodborne illnesses from the nationwide monitoring system in July and one of them was listeria? Mentioning for no particular reason www.nbcnews.com/health/healt...
nbcnews.com
The CDC quietly scaled back a surveillance program for foodborne illnesses
As of July 1, a critical surveillance program is monitoring for only two pathogens instead of the usual eight.
