descriptions in alt text. I have another (Fujigen Iliad seven string) but I can only place four images in a post and I'm also thinking of selling it.

...also this is why I've had the same car for 13 years.

Hey y'all.

A South African dev released a blackity black game during BHM and it's currently getting the usual suspects in the reviews.

Imma grab this up myself anyway, but can we all be some chums and help push the racists out of the reviews? 🙂

my brother millions of metalheads around the world have been happily listening to incomprehensible Finnish shrieks and Japanese death grunts since we were teens, you’re just boring and racist

having been on the periphery of the music industry, seeing super talented, passionate and smart people take a once-in-a-lifetime chance at doing something great and getting fucked over for it is something I've gotten too familiar with and it's always heartbreaking.

really enjoying Nioh 3 so far. it's definitely easier than the previous two games but I guess it's good not to overwhelm new players with high difficulty *and* a bunch of esoteric systems that probably only a relatively small percentage of people will explore.

Nioh 3 increases inventory capacity threefold from the first two games which implies they heard all the complaints about the loot system and were like "damn that's crazy"

loot goblins triumph once again

Bezos isn't destroying the Washington Post because it isn't profitable. He's destroying the Washington Post because he's calculated that a robust free press threatens the ability of his class to warp society around their interests

Sega Mega Drive between the sheets~

One image of a slideshow prod of carefully converted artwork from their original PC-98 colour palette and resolution to that of the Mega Drive, which I popped onto our MD's Everdrive to check out.

more guitar shit I forgot to post here. I do this sequence as a kind of warmup since it helps me get comfortable weaving different techniques together in a single run. not the cleanest take, but the purpose is to get comfortable so it'll do.

Happy Black History Month.

It's a good time to remind you about Jerry Lawson's influence in the video game industry.
This is Jerry Lawson. He invented the video game cartridge for the Fairchild Channel F system. Because of his invention, many consoles had cartridges and CD formats and would become the norm.

The Atari 2600, NES, Genesis, and many consoles wouldn't exist without him.

Happy Black History Month.

Donald Trump wants to distract you from what ICE is doing so badly that he permitted the release of millions of pages of Epstein files.

If that doesn't work, he'll go to war with Iran.

The Democrats are negotiating milquetoast "restrictions" on ICE.

But only grassroots resistance will save us.
Remember, WE HAVE NOT WON YET!

ICE is still kidnapping and terrorizing in the Twin Cities and all around the country.

Democrats are scheming to squander the advantage that Good and Pretti paid for with their lives.

All out to the Twin Cities!

Keep fighting! 🏴

One detail getting lost in the coverage of Don Lemon's arrest?

The church at the center of the case has ties to the Christian nationalist movement, including the “TheoBros," a loose network of mostly millennial, extremely online Christian nationalist pastors, podcasters, and shitposters.

Darren Aranofsky's new project is AI slop, but what do you expect him to do? Satoshi Kon tragically passed away in 2010, so Aranofsky has long been lacking in an actual artist to steal from
