you shouldn’t learn about bands from shady TikTok manipulation, you should learn about bands by hanging out with a girl you like but are also extremely afraid of

Anyway, I have no idea how to market a thing but I made a physical media catalogue and collection management app. Give it a try! filmshelves.com/

FilmShelves | Catalogue and Collection for Physical Media

Track releases, editions, and collection ownership in one collector-first platform.

One of the many reasons AI can't produce good writing is it can't hate its own writing. It can't think to itself "Maybe I'm illiterate" during the writing process. And that's essential

This is awful. Ninja Theory make consistently engaging games, and Compulsion's South of Midnight was an incredible piece of storytelling. Hopefully all the devs involved stay employed.

Oh no, First Light chatter has referenced GotG for the writing, Sleeping Dogs for the fights, and Alpha bloody Protocol for the tone. That might be enough to get past the perma-smug crooked mouth.

Thanks @ign.com for further destroying my main site for 25 years. Getting published there was a privilege; I was good enough to feature among the incredible writers and editors. But you wouldn't know anything about that, would you. It doesn't make for a good spreadsheet. Shiteaters.

losing my mind at the "she should have followed directions" people really? really? you're cool with "if you don't follow directions, they get to kill you"? that seems like a good state of affairs to you? that seems like how law enforcement ought to work: instant obeisance or death?
