The data for 2025 was just released via Luminate, and 88% of songs have been demonetized.

This is still one of my favourite things I've ever written, and makes me look like a cool trendsetting type, what with it coming out just before King's Field-likes started getting popular.

Nice little independent central bank you got right there. Would be a shame if something happened to it.
Sen. Kevin Cramer: "Maybe the point should be if you're the attorney for Jay Powell and you want to avoid an indictment, how about you go to Jeanine Pirro and say, 'I'll make a deal. I'll step down today if you drop the investigation today.' To me, that would be a win win for everybody."

GameStop CEO Ryan Cohen could make $35 Billion in stock options, but whether or not he gets paid will be based entirely on the company's performance.
Apparently closing around 390 stores will help GameStop meet those goals. https://t.co/bunyvP7wyD

Fantastic video looking at just how much stuff is coming out on Steam even during a 'dead' period.
There's so much good stuff lurking in there but you need to have *skills* and TOOLS to dig through the garbage. Being able to filter it effectively is a big deal.

NEW VIDEO ALERT:
230 games came out on Steam the first week of 2026. I looked at every page to see what I could learn about the state of Steam. It made me feel like I was dying.

With each letter sent by Microsoft, Sony, WB, Amazon to notify the state of a mass cut was a long list of roles eliminated.

I called the Herr's Product Quality Concerns line and reached a nice lady. She listened to my whole little saga.
She waited, then said, "I bet you believe they're made from real potatoes now!"
I may never recover.

Got my first bag of potato chips in months. Cracked it open. The first chip out of the bag was... soggy?
The second chip was almost fungal.
Baffled, I explored the bag and discovered AN ENTIRE POTATO. Unsliced, brined, like a wad of seasoning juice. It had survived, and now was juicing the chips.
