Twitch streamer, host of Arcade Pit!

New games weren't scarce in the 90s, but you could've easily played most of the hits. Now there's so many masterpieces that everyone has their personal endless backlog of amazing content.

AI slop shouldn't be able to thrive in a market bursting with so many human-made, genuine banger pieces of art.

29 long years have passed since I founded the emulation archive, Zophar's Domain, on 11.9.96. To this very day, the site still stands as a testament to an era that never actually disappeared but continues to live in the hearts of retrogamers all over the word. Emulation Forever!

I had a 'Bill's hat' from playing L4D competitively. Every day, a new TF2 rando would send me a trade request for it, furious at my declinations. Never understood the system. Tried to get rid of the cards every game gave for 10c each, futile.

Still have the cursed $20~ hat in my gigantic inventory
My grumpiness against Valve is 50% them being boneheads with store policy stuff, but the other 50% is them tacking lootboxes onto a personally fine game I already owned and pretending they did me a favor.
Yeah, I wish people would remember that Valve gave us the Team Fortress 2 and Counter-Strike loot crate economies, YEARS before the other big companies latched onto the scam and got all the shit for it.

Often feel obligated in 2025 to say these facts I figured out in 2001:

Poor people should be allowed to have nice things

Trans rights are human rights

Evolution is undeniable, the backbone of biology.

People with more money than Smaug's treasure horde are worse for the community than he was.

With a heavy heart, I move "Pit Fighter" to #2 in the worst of SNES list, defying every other top ten worst game.

Pit Fighter, a score of 2 out of 40

Your new champion, with a score of -1 :

I am more or less satisfied with the apology and direction of retro achievements' response after pulling that set, and reeling in the lunatic that was banning everyone who criticized them for supporting a hate-speech game. They drew the correct lines, eventually. took friction, shouldn't have.

Archiving hyper racist Klan comic strips with the same energy as Garfield strips is not being "neutral," zero censorship is actually anti-freedom; You've created an environment where I no longer feel safe the N-bomb isn't gonna show up on my feed when I visit your front page. Site sucks. Farewell.

Not sure what this thing is, it was on my car. However, it's good to see AI is absolutely nailing it these days

The Sting is a great movie, that everyone should watch, and rip Newman and Redford, its stars.

When they weren't busy making banger films, Redford was: an environmentalist, LGBT advocate, founder of the Sundance festival

Newman founded Newman's own; 100% of profit goes to charity (600m to date)
In honor of Robert Redford's passing, we're watching one of the greats.....

Roast em, kings
We don’t want AI slop.
Stop sending us AI slop.
Stop wasting our time with AI slop.
It doesn’t sound good.
It’s antithetical to our core values.
You didn’t even make it.
Knock it off.
