the psycho terf groups are starting to have their eyes drift towards diy hrt resources again - so it's a good time to remember that under no circumstances in no world whatsoever for the rest of time should you talk to journalists, especially regarding anything related to diy hormones.

this writing has plumbing issues. it's leaking. my hands are wet with unintentional emotional seepage. the writer's badly-repressed damp little thoughts are coming out all over my shirt

disco elysium should have been a super-immersive VR experience that tracks your movements at all times and requires you, in order to start the game at all, to get into face down ass up position. like on the menu screen it checks for it and denies you access to the game if you're not doing it right

an indecisive poet trying to make breakfast: oatmeal could seal the deal, and to intake a flake for the sake of breaking the fast might last me 'til lunch, but here's a hunch: fried eggs on bread will keep me fed, and why not on rye for more fibre? yes...when pressed, would an egg be best...?

my personal experience with collectives, art or otherwise, for over a decade now has been that they've tended to dissolve into disorganised cults of personality usually to avoid responsibility for various abuses committed by prominent members. this is why, when I see "collective", I feel uneasy...

I don't know much about what's going on with the games industry, but i feel like seeing "Playstation airs State of Play" directly after "Sony tells gamers they don't own the digital games they buy" on the trending tab is doing a pretty good job at summarising it for me

Billie Méjean is an underappreciated character, it's unfortunate that conversations about characters like her tend to devolve into insidiously patronising "what a salt-of-the earth, bless her uncomplicated soul, the working class are such golden-hearted heroes, hear-hear" sugar-flavoured classism

there should have been a part in Disco Elysium where there's an unskippable cutscene of a white screen that you can't exit out of by any method accompanied by the first brass note of Instruments of Surrender stretched out for 3 hours, and if you input the konami code the word "POLITICS" appears

there should have been a scene in Disco Elysium where you get jumped in an alley by a gang of youths and then it turns into a side-scrolling beat 'em up where you need to punch and kick 3 different recolours of a guy called "Jackson "Beef" Sandwich" to make a giant "GO!" appear in the sky in blood

imagining Jean Vicquemare waking up at 4am (after only managing to drift off somewhere between 2 and 3) with a bad headache and sitting on his shitty couch holding a glass of water in tortured silence staring at a wall until his alarm goes off for work (he does not drink the water) <3 (^ w ^)👍

nostalgic about the lead content of solder. ranting and raving about how when they took the lead out of solder that's when the world went to shit, just absolutely losing my little mind, mind full of poison waving a circuitboard in the air but AHA, NONE of the components are falling off, SEE??

there should have been a scene in disco elysium where harry "harry" du bois and kim "don't you fucking dare" kitsuragi get into the kineema and then it turns into a top-down driving minigame where you have to press left and right to change lanes and avoid pedestrians. like a reverse Frogger :)

there should have been a scene in disco elysium where harry "good boy, sit, bark" du bois and kim "exhaustfucker" kitsuragi start a cult of disillusioned student-aged adults who're all encouraged to sit and carve miniature replica's of harry's lost gun out of driftwood and sell them on the street

SO LIKE Kim has two pens. Depending on what kind of choices you make, Kim can either give you a pen happily, reluctantly let you BORROW a pen, or refuse outright. Later, you can find out that Kim's previous partner, Eyes, is no longer around. He doesn't want to talk about why. Kim has TWO PENS.

thinking today about how brand/IP-centered activity and loyalty has for many, more than ever, become almost inextricably tied to identity and emotional/social health, and how this has been driven almost entirely by corporate interests exploiting the human need for culture and for community

the urge to draw our C-Wing the same as this still from The Misfortunates (2009) is incredibly strong
Characters from the movie walking down a street in a line, a crew of neerdowells each with a unique and descriptive pose.
