Those of us, especially those who live in the United States, who are fans of video games and not fascists should openly, constantly, and vociferously condemn ICE's usage of video game memes in their propaganda.
We should also be loudly calling on any owners of these IPs to do the same.

In 2006 a high school English teacher asked students to write to a famous author & ask for advice.
KURT VONNEGUT - born 103yrs ago today - was the only one to respond.
His reply was a doozy.

Voters want a Democratic Party that fights back against the forces that have rigged the system and made their lives more difficult.
A party that comforts the afflicted and afflicts the comfortable —not a party that buckles and capitulates.
When will party leadership learn this lesson?

I keep seeing regular Americans taking more risks every day to fight tyranny, want, and cynicism than I see from the opposition party, and I imagine many of those regular Americans are asking themselves what the value proposition of such an opposition party is, really

The fun thing about deciding to do long-form retrospective for the first time in over a decade, is that I get fun reminders that my YouTube budget isn't actually $0.
Anyway, I have this on my E-reader now and have another book to hunt for as well as one on my Christmas list 'cause it's 'spensive. 😅

I did not expect a new godzilla project featuring suitmation to hit my nostalgia THIS hard, but man, as soon as I realized that was a suit it all crashed in. Lol
Also, did they drag the godzilla 2000 suit out of storage for this, because it sure LOOKS like they did.

It’s good that Newsom is trolling Trump, and it’s great that Prop 50 was proposed by him, and passed.
Don’t be fooled by this corporate shill, however. He is NOT to be trusted. He’s just another empty suit, pro C-Suite, donor class supporting, neoliberal hack that will not repair the damage done

The thing about Godzilla, and why I find it so hard to talk about and recommend as a life-long fan, is that I fully acknowledge that the VAST majority of the franchise is unwatchable to most people.
Godzilla has a reputation: dumb, campy, cheap, and with dogshit dubbing, and that is not unearned.

I love to see people get introduced to the Godzilla franchise and have this reaction to the original film.
I usually don't recommend it to people due to its age, but maybe I need to revisit that decision.

I made my post about Calamo and then the next time I opened Bluesky, I saw this post.
And I was like "Yeah, that checks out." 😂

I voice the brave Korok warrior CALAMO in HYRULE WARRIORS: AGE OF IMPRISONMENT. This character was an absolute joy to play, and it was really cool to get to be a part of a Zelda game. The game is available now on Nintendo Switch 2.

My only problem with Age of Imprisonment so far is its not Calle Age of Calamo.

The full weight of western capitalism is about to laser focus on NYC. The robber barons failed to win and will panic. They will sabotage NYC because the system cannot allow Mamdani's term to be successful. They cannot allow people to believe things can be better. Your job now is to hold the line.

The oligarchy came out in full force against Zohran Mamdani's fight for a more affordable NYC.
It didn't matter.
Let his victory in the face of Big Money serve as a reminder that people have the power.

Voting states: get out an vote for your progressive candidate. And if you are in California, vote yes on 50.
More Gerymandering is bad for the country, but a full Trump term with the GOP in complete control is worse.
We can work to claw that shit back once the current crisis is over.

And from this side of it, the frustrating thing is just knowing that if you have no actual talent, empathy, or moral fiber whatsoever, how INCREDIBLY easy *and* profitable that sort of content would be to make.
Like I have seen multiple influential social media personalities be built on the backs of reactionary content about Pokémon or Star Wars that turn toxic when the person didn’t like it anymore, but still felt the need to keep engaging with it to satiate their followers.

In 2015, Godzilla was granted honorary citizenship in Japan. A fictional character, a manifestation of nuclear horror, a big lizard creature... I don't know if anything else speaks to the cultural impact this monster has had.
He is a global icon that everyone recognizes.
Happy Godzilla day.

Getting real annoyed at Udon's loose goosey release schedule. The Mega Man ZX comic was supposed to release in September.
Then it got pushed back to late October.
Now it's November and I can't find anything about it is supposed to ACTUALLY release.
And the website STILL says September!

I've been saying, ever since this little nazi twerp came on the scene that he was the future of the Republican party. The fact that he has been platformed by both Glen Greenwald and Tucker Carlaon (despite Carlson seemingly getting backlash) is the next step down that road.
