Mark Luther @markluther.bsky.social · 28/09/2026It makes me irrationally upset that Brits call anything inside a burger bun a burger. The meat must be ground and formed into a patty, you fools. 000
Mark Luther @markluther.bsky.social · 27/07/2026You're quite mistaken if you think not having an international monolog means my brain is quiet. I assure you it is full to burrsting with non-stop invasive thoughts thanks to my anxiety. It is not a zen experience in any way. 001
Mark Luther @markluther.bsky.social · 19/07/2026Nobody in America cares about soccer outside of once every four years, regardless of which team it is. You don't have to like it, but that's the truth. 100
Mark Luther @markluther.bsky.social · 19/07/2026You think this is about women's sports when it's about *soccer*. 100
Mark Luther @markluther.bsky.social · 19/07/2026It sure is. It last occurred three years previous, though. Nobody cared during those three years. Forever a novelty. Not the fault of the sport or the athletes, just a reality. Nobody cares about the men's team until a world cup either. 100
Mark Luther @markluther.bsky.social · 19/07/2026The world cup is once every 4 years. The issue is making anyone care inbetween them. Soccer fails to do that. In England the local soccer club has it's own chants and history. In America it's a game played by kids. 110
Mark Luther @markluther.bsky.social · 19/07/2026You're correct. Yet still there is close to zero cultural penetration. We just don't have the culture. 130
Mark Luther @markluther.bsky.social · 19/07/2026It won't. The culture simply isn't here. The paradox is that America will never care about soccer because our national team will never be any good, and our team will never be any good because we don't care about soccer. We don't have the culture to tolerate middling outcomes. 221
Mark Luther @markluther.bsky.social · 19/07/2026Convince me to give a shit as to how the World Cup final ends, if you can. I knew the US wasn't doing shit, and the only team I got slightly invested in was Norway. Why should I care whether Spain or Argentina wins? 000
Mark Luther @markluther.bsky.social · 17/07/2026The Republicans are politicizing wind and smoke now? However low you think they're capable of going, they always manage to go lower. 001
Mark Luther @markluther.bsky.social · 16/07/2026America finds itself currently within the realm of the chronically-ill patient that decides they no longer need thier maintenance medications because they feel so great, and that must be because every problem has resolved itself and we can all just sing and dance ourselves into a true peace! 000
Mark Luther @markluther.bsky.social · 16/07/20261066 --> 2026 Time is a flat circle and the English are destined to lose to the French yet again. 120
Mark Luther @markluther.bsky.social · 13/05/2026It being "a real game" is ultimately irrelevant to how it experienced as art anyway. Something like Space Invaders is as gamey as a game can get, but I doubt it makes anyone feel any particular way their lives or experiences. It's a spectrum for everyone, and we all have a different center point. 000
Mark Luther @markluther.bsky.social · 12/03/2026Today I learned that Montana and Pennsylvanian are connected by the term "lightning bug". I honestly say both that and firefly, but lightning bug is much more dramatic and interesting. 000
Mark Luther @markluther.bsky.social · 06/03/2026Let's be very careful not to sympathize with this particular pustulant nodule of the corporate AI hegemony simply because they said "no" to amoral capitalistic engorgement one god-damned time. 000
Mark Luther @markluther.bsky.social · 05/03/2026I voted for John Fetterman. At the time it seemed like a good idea. 010
Mark Luther @markluther.bsky.social · 28/02/2026The Anglo-Saxons clearly established that the sky is the bit of the upthere that exists just between the horizon and the heofan. It all seems very straightforward to me! 000
Mark Luther @markluther.bsky.social · 23/02/2026I do understand why outside observers might think team USA should take some dour, miserable stance about winning gold because of geopolitics, but they've spent just as much time and effort as anyone else to reach this goal, and thier joy is as genuine as any other's would be. 000

Mark Luther @markluther.bsky.social · 01/02/2026Obviously not everyone who interacted with Epstein was a pedo, as the ultra-rich are an insulated, incestuous pocket of society, but I say we forget about sorting it all out and just burn them all to the ground. It's the most optimal solution. 000
Mark Luther @markluther.bsky.social · 25/01/2026While I fundamentally agree with the idea of FIFA boycotting the US for the World Cup, that is undermined by the fact that FIFA is the most corrupt sporting organization ever to have existed, and as such they do not care. 000
Mark Luther @markluther.bsky.social · 04/01/2026Surely this time America will invade a foreign nation, prop up a puppet government, and everything will work out wonderfully! It's just improbable we'd fail *again*, right? 010
Mark Luther @markluther.bsky.social · 29/12/2025It isn't that you're wrong about the major sports leagues being run by corrupt billionaires, it's just that so is every major form of entertainment. I guarantee you partake in others. It's a faux sense of superiority to pluck one corrupt thing and say "I'm superior for not liking *this* one" 010

Mark Luther @markluther.bsky.social · 11/11/2025As a Pennsylvanian it's time to admit that voting for Fetterman was just voting for Dr. Oz with extra steps. I'm all for undermining the current democratic party standard, but only to further progressivism, not to kowtow to Trumpism. I'd 000
Mark Luther @markluther.bsky.social · 08/09/2025Imagine not wanting your own MVP quarterback to win a game, and instead opting to punt it to the *other* team's MVP quarterback to win the game instead. John Harbaugh is truly a man of grace and concession. 021
Mark Luther @markluther.bsky.social · 30/08/2025White Castle hamburgers are absolute swill, and I have no idea how that place continues to exist in a country with the stunning depth of burger quality seen within the United States.

Mark Luther @markluther.bsky.social · 22/04/2025Yes, we need eastern Devs like Capcom to save us with wonderfully optimized games like Monster Hunter Wilds. (I should note that I love that game, but it runs like shit, even on console) 020
Mark Luther @markluther.bsky.social · 29/03/2025If you spend all of your time on Twitter, maybe. But Twitter is not a representative sample for society. The internet has sort of been carved up into little enclaves where like-minded people cloister together, and it might *seem* like one opinion or the other is the "major" one if you stay there. 110
Mark Luther @markluther.bsky.social · 29/03/2025People complain about whitewashing of characters all the time, though. Not saying it isn't valid, only that it's very loud and accounted for. 140

Mark Luther @markluther.bsky.social · 27/02/2025How wonderful is it that we have an entire generation of voting American citizens who apparently think that the Gilded Age must have been great because it had such a cool name? 000
Mark Luther @markluther.bsky.social · 27/02/2025You can tell the release of a new Monster Hunter game is close because 50% of the posts on the MH subreddit are bitching about it not being hard enough. Very exciting! 000
Mark Luther @markluther.bsky.social · 26/02/2025Huge props to Avowed and Monster Hunter Wilds for making February tolerable. Otherwise, you've got the shortest month that manages to feel the longest because of how truly awful it is. 000
Mark Luther @markluther.bsky.social · 15/02/2025Some people just lack any sense of subtlety. If a game does something they don't like, they immediately say its "trash" or "terrible". It's a combination of tribal behavior and entitlement, I suspect. 040
Mark Luther @markluther.bsky.social · 14/02/2025I, by all means, endorse Canadians booing our national Anthem, but I just hope you don't get too riled up into your own nationalism and start hating all Americans.
