I think medieval beekeeper outfits could be the strongest look in the entire history of fashion.

Lots of people dunking on this from just the title, but the writer is having a lot of fun here and there's an interesting examination of how King has created a shared but not shared universe in his books.

steam is apparently allowing "this game had AI in it that it didn't disclose" as a valid return statement, so if you or anyone you know actually paid $70 for slop, get that money back

3 years ago today, Riot Games offered me a job making more money than I ever thought I’d make in my life. I had 19 interviews over 2.5 months to get it. Partner and I were moving to LA for it. I put in notice at my job and apartment.

2 weeks later they rescinded the offer due to “headcount issues”.

This argument that we need to adopt fascism-lite to prevent electing fascists is a big ahistorical lie, and it has a lot of currency in Canada too. This will not solve any problems fascists blame on refugees, while it concedes the idea that they're correct to blame them. This is how you get ICE.
UK set to limit refugees to temporary stays
Shabana Mahmood is expected to say the era of permanent protection for refugees is over, in major changes to the UK's asylum and immigration system.

What a terrible mixup but also...humanity's mothetly guardian?? That's so much less cool and less fun and :(
The entire fandom’s (and Retro Studios) initial assumption: “Oh she hunts down the baddest monsters in the galaxy and gets paid for it, right?”

Nintendo: “What? No. She’s like humanity’s motherly guardian. What are you talking about.”

Sincerely giving myself a pat on the back for always repeatedly telling all my friends about every indie game I enjoy and recommend.

Indies are fantastic, and my gaming life is SO much better playing them :)
Random person who plays indie games, you are the most important cog in an indie game's success.

Most gamers don't know or care that indies exist.... unless a friend tells them.

Our games succeed because you tell other people you liked our game. Word of mouth is the best marketing there is.

So many people fall into the trap of thinking that the people who make their entertainment are wealthy and powerful.
The people who make your entertainment likely earn less than you. All that money you spend on big games goes to a handful of very rich people who couldn’t make a game of tic-tac-toe.

need to kill the recurring thought of "no I can't replay/reread that, I have other stuff to check out"

no. I am a poor little peasant living just after the advent of the printing press. I have five books at most and I will reread them so much they will know the death of the author was caused by me

Overwatch Spirit Showdown mode is pretty fun as tank or dmg, but as a healer I just feel like I'm watching other people play with the new toy/game mode. "Swap heroes whenever you eliminate an enemy" actually isnt an elimination, it's when you get the "final blow"

You GOTTA stop being so desperately afraid of the audience. Look at me. Look in my eyeballs. Stop being so desperate for approval. Stop writing for the whiny babies in your audience and start writing for the freaks who like cool fucked up shit
