whatever you think about this game they wrote a perfect earworm stage theme, the kind that you look forward to every run. and it's about being a turd being flushed down a toilet.

I'm sad that the comments section of the No Children video on YouTube is full of moral oral references, not because i dislike moral oral or anything, but because i was hoping to find people bitching about their ex's and spouses

saw No Other Choice last night and it was super beautiful. fantastic use of color. super creative captivating imagery, awesome sets, before even considering any other aspect of the movie, it’s just spectacular.
also one of the best scenes ive ever seen 1/3 of the way in.
hugely recommended

this is a disgusting act of incompetence by riot. they moved into a scene that’s infamously niche and challenging for on-boarding, poured colossal resources in and then threw in the towel after a few months.
