I went to meet the 'Rockstar 31', the developers who were suddenly fired from their work on GTA 6 for what the studio has described as gross misconduct.
That's not what the workers call it though. They have another couple of words they prefer to use: union busting.

I told my friend I'd catch her a Hoppip in White so that she could use it on her Black 2 playthrough. I was grinding to catch her a good one, and all of a sudden...!

Frost’s video on Silksong is thus far the most substantive and perspicacious take I’ve seen on the game’s difficulty from someone who wasn’t only singing its praises. This guy GETS it, and he gets it on a level many tend to miss.
Lots to takeaway here that you don’t get from game design junior

Pokemon is actually really hard if you insist on using all of the terrible Pokemon that only have 2 stages of evolution and don't do any damage

Korra is not even close to as good as AtLA. It’s too bad because the animation is still fantastic and I love the world. But these characters aren’t nearly as gripping, and the stories aren’t nearly as well written

finally watching legend of korra
Weird that Korra respects it when they threaten to arrest her. They're bluffing. They can't arrest the Avatar. She's a reincarnated spiritual leader, an icon of peace. That'd be like kidnapping the Panchen Lama- ohhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

Yellow used to be my least favorite color but nowadays I’m totally infatuated with it

my friends have made me into a person I love being, and I don’t think I will ever be able to love myself quite as much as I love them.
people are worlds, and they’ve made mine a paradise
