The image is of a four panel comic.
The title reads, "Suddenly Finding A New Obsession".
In the first panel we see Sarah, the protagonist, in front of her computer. She has a bored expression on her face.
In the second panel we zoom in on her face. She looks suddenly alert.
In the third panel we zoom in even closer on her face. Her eyes and mouth are wide open in intrigue.
In the fourth panel we zoom out and see Sarah in front of her computer again, but this time she is dressed in a frog costume, surrounded by frog toys, and has an "I heart frogs" poster behind her.

The image is of a four panel comic.
The title above the first two panels reads, "Dog Toys".
The first panel shows Sarah, the protagonist, holding a bone shaped dog toy. She says, "Look!"
The second panel shows a dog wagging its tail. There is a speech bubble leading back to Sarah saying "It squeaks!"
The title above the last two panels reads, "Cat Toys".
In panel three we see Sarah again. She says "Come, child."
Panel four shows a cat raising its paws in glee. We see Sarah's hands holding cat nip. We see a speech bubble leading back to Sarah saying "It is time to do drugs".

The first panel shows a black cat. The text above the cat reads, "For a long time, black cats were said to be evil and working with the Devil."
The second panel zooms out and shows Sarah, the protagonist, next to the cat. The text above the pair reads "But now we know that's not true."
The third panel shows Sarah hugging the black cat.
The fourth panel shows an orange cat behind Sarah, standing with its arms reaching up as a fire blazes behind it. The text reads, "It's the orange cats."

Extremely sad to think I'll never release another physical game for PlayStation. Releasing the physical versions of Animal Well was a huge motivator all throughout development. It really kills my desire to develop for the platform. I'm hoping they reverse this decision : (

Now feels like a good time to shout out GOG. If we ever have to be forced into an all-digital environment, backup installers are the most practical way to re-access YOUR games at YOUR descretion.
Screenshot of two file explorer windows. The one on the left shows folders named after various game titles, and the one on the right shows the inside of the Clair Obscur Expedition 33 folder containing the exe and bin files which will install the game from a local drive. No network connection required, no platform holders gatekeeping your right to access what you paid for.

I suspected that Nintendo would end up being the last bastion of physical, because they are the only ones who were lucky enough to set themselves up for physical to be practical on handheld devices. I hope the fact that they essentially have a monopoly on physical games now keeps hard copies alive.

All of these cases are basically litmus tests for any Dem nominee. Are immigrants Americans? Do trans Americans deserve human rights? Are corporations superhumans who get to spend endlessly on elections to put whoever they want into power? These are simple questions with simple answers.
