I reviewed MARTY SUPREME, which whipped insanely hard. Nobody does stories about creeps and losers like Josh Safdie, and he still manages to make you love them every time.

No son, they are not "magically delicious." The workers made them delicious. This is a slogan meant to mystify the social conditions of labor

Definitely first person at the company, potentially first person in the world lol

Ironic, as this was the magazine that referred to Pokémon as a "pestilential Ponzi scheme" in 1999, characterising its creator Satoshi Tajiri as a literal monster "His eyes are bloodshot; dark circles ripple beneath them... His monsters are a child's predelictions." He never gave another interview.

If you're gonna read any quote from an article on the game, let it be this one, because I think it sums up a lot of the feelings of fans pretty succintly

My most Superb Owl story, probably the hardest I've ever "worked" to find a bird. 🪶
250 miles from my apartment is the only known active Northern Pygmy Owl nest on public land in California.

These owls aren't, by far, the rarest birds in California, with a solid 2500 pictures on ebird, but they are hard to get

I've struggles for years to get a shot.

Yesterday I finally got it 🪶🧵

In my experience, talent is a *detriment* to learning.

I didn't have to practice early on so I *didn't know how*. I didn't start to learn how to practice until my 30s! (When much of my life was taken up with parenting, so I didn't have time!)

I didn't start to improve as a musician until my 40s!
I'm going to say this again in case you haven't heard this one: I was a talented writer and it did *nothing whatsoever* because I hadn't put in the work, and I put in the work for ten years (subtracting the bit where I had to quit for my mental health) to write Witchmark

talent alone could *never*

hard to think of a better example of "you may not believe in class war, but billionaires know they're in one" than this
This is bleak: Jes Staley, currently CEO of Barclays, reassuring Epstein that popular revolt against financial elites is unlikely because capitalism and pop culture have defanged social movements, leaving people more invested in consumption than justice.

You’re not crazy. The anti-trans movement is not organic; it was funded by pedophilic billionaires like Jeffrey Epstein who backed a network of conservatives to accuse the same people they were sexually abusing of being the real danger. @madycast.com exposes the truth in our in-depth report.

So it's Black History Month and that means I think it's a good time to get familiar with Mike Pondsmith, if you're not already.

When you see R. Talsorian Games, that's him. When you see Cyberpunk 2077, that's his world.

Mekton, Castle Falkenstein, also him.

The story goes like this, in 1967 a little girl called Takara’s customer service number, and asked to speak to Licca-chan.

Not wanting to crush a little kid’s dreams, the operator quickly replied “Hello, this is Licca-chan!”

Very cute, totally harmless. …right?
