Easy mistake you make interacting with people online is trying to say a thing that takes more than a second of thought to realize that you’re not saying the opposite of what you are trying to say because, folks, let me tell you what nobody will spend

Game devs and journos are the real troops. We don’t get our employers making a public statement every time someone is a little mean to us AND we never even once get to let off steam less lethaling a content creator or redditor when they start acting up

re last QRT I feel like players need a togglable "giving off the vibe" buff that you can use to tell the game if you want to pursue a romantic relationship with someone you are talking to lol. I always find it annoying when the game interprets "i find your questline interesting" as "wanna fuck"

I honestly think many male dominated game development studios do not understand that there’s an inherent push/pull in a lot of heterosexual romance, and that a man who just kind of blandly rolls over for you is…….. boring
Just opened my other browser tab and it is: fanart of Goro Takemura, who they ALSO won’t let you fuck in cyberpunk 2077

The cool thing about game development is even if you put out a bad game, if you wait 10 years you'll have adults who played it as kids tell you it fuckin ruled because kids are nonjudgmental like that

I feel like everyone memory holed the libertarian response to 9/11 and the bush admin lol, these have never been serious people
Seeing libertarians say “well if you don’t want to get shot by the secret police then don’t go outside” has been so enlightening

Homan: "We gotta stop the hateful rhetoric. Saying this officer is a murderer is dangerous. It's just ridiculous. It's gonna infuriate people more which means there's gonna be more incidents like this."

I think the real source of incandescent rage is the knowledge that actual deserved justice is such a remote possibility.

I am extremely curious about the minute details of how composers got sound into NES games. Curious how many of them had audio programmers who wrote tools, how many did it themselves… the iteration time there must have been wild!

What an absolute failure Karen Bass has been. Complete disaster for the city of LA.
Tonight, Mayor Karen Bass released a statement about local protests in LA. She says people better keep it peaceful, or else Trump will send in the troops. Worth noting that:
- Trump tried to send Nat Guard to Portland, even tho there were no riots
- LAPD/LASD brutalized people instead of military
