I had my criticisms of Destiny, especially in the later years, but it was truly a towering and one-+of-a-kind achievement. Let me list some of the ways. I was a fan first, a dev later

If the actor with British accent is evil then you’re watching Sci fi. If the actor with a British accent is good then it’s Fantasy. If the actor with a British accent knocks something over then it’s a Rom com.

I think they saw Clefairy up there... I just can't prove it
An illustration of our dearth earth and moon from the viewpoint of a spaceship flying behind the moon. The small pink fairy Pokémon clefairy is visible in the foreground, tapping the window of our spaceship. From Earth you can see another spaceship flying towards the moon. The art style is colorful and stylized, whimsical and fun.

Doom is a form of mum game. Any game in which you clean the level meticulously and thoroughly before moving on and then the next time you return its a mess again is a mum game

huh so Google is kicking off the new year by pissing off knitters that’s fun
A Google doodle logo where the o’s in Google are replaced by a bad AI rendition of some non-anatomically correct bright pink knitting. The two needles look like a weird broken screw, there aren’t enough stitches, and it’s all very ugly and low effort. There’s a link: “Make a plan for 2026 resolutions with Al Mode”
