Good Opinion Haver and that’s just about the only good thing about me

Decided to do an annual media thread for 2025 (or at least for as long as the idea interests me!)

Not going to assign scores, just cutting down my thoughts on a given game/book/film to one tweet

Also has the side-benefit of gently bullying any ~nameless friends~ known for procrastination~! >;3

Finding myself a little confused by Talisman (4e) it feels like it’s at a place between a simple, normie family board game and a more serious tabletop game…

It reminds me of a thing Nina Hartley said about swingers being the most kinky vanilla people or the most vanilla people in the kink community

How do you fuck up the pronunciation of a game YOU NOMINATED this badly?

It pronounces it for you when you boot the game!

Rebecca Heineman is a goddamn legend among women. She did SO much great stuff, from her impossible game ports, to tirelessly keeping the mac gaming scene alive, to making sure that the Kinect works when you're wearing a skirt, to making the worst version of DOOM kinda glorious in its own way.
My trailblazing game industry bad-ass friend Rebecca Heineman has passed away.

Fuck cancer.

Friends, let’s not forget her: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rebecca...

in the early 2000s Rebecca took the time to chat over IRC with a teenaged and gender-confused Me on the practicalities of transition - in a time where being out as trans online was something that could get you socially ostracized. I owe her a lot for that and only hope I can pay it forward.

I'd like to share this old video of hers, where she talks about her time working on the 3DO port of Doom.
it's a wild story that stuck with me, and a reminder that sometimes "bad games" have amazing people working on them

it is incredibly fucking cursed that one of my A'SMR t'riggers is people earnestly reading ad copy

when I was at google, their class on licenses basically said "we can't use any license that's funny"

so I suggest everyone license their software as funny as possible
finally a normal software license that definitely holds up really well

Lots of folks gotta start getting way more comfy defending pornography and adult content with their whole chests, because this trend will not end well for anyone.
My new Buy Me a Coffee account was suspended before my first payout was received, the site stating it is “required to deactivate accounts that contain or use adult content to generate revenue through Buy Me a Coffee”

Adult content was never referenced on my page nor used as a motivator to tip

It really needs to be pointed out how every one of these embarrassing statements is made by a c-suite executive and not an artist or even art department lead

"surely there's a more nuanced take" isn't totally unreasonable excepting when you use your next breath to say "-because actually I think the AI voice thing everyone hates is good, actually" and then follow it up with some AI bro bullshit about how AI voice is actually very human and will connect us
