Excuse me for stating the obvious, but the GOP's defense of the Minnesota shooting - which is on video for *everyone* to see - really is that 1984 quote writ large:
"The Party told you to reject the evidence of your eyes and ears. It was their final, most essential command."

Always expect the unexpected from Remedy.
The new Control game isn't a shooter, it's not set in the Oldest House, and it doesn't star Jesse Faden—but, y'know, otherwise it seems like a faithful follow-up
You can always count on Remedy to defy expectations, and it's certainly doing that with Control Resonant.

"I think that each project I make in whatever medium it will be, will largely be unconnected," says Blue Prince developer Tonda Ros.
My favorite game of 2025 won't get a sequel, says its developer: 'Each of my projects will be completely standalone'

I also find the whole ‘call your senator’ thing as a response deeply depressing. Does that ever do anything? I can’t recall in 10 years here one of them saying “well I was going to do this heinous thing but the the answerphone filled up.”

Mamdani winning feels like the first green shoot of recovery in this long-ass year. All my life I’ve heard these dire warnings of “if so and so wins then all the rich will leave”. Don’t threaten us with a good time. (They never do either.)

it's obviously important that zohran won. but it's equally important that cuomo and the despicable, racist, contemptuous, arrogant, loathesome forces arrayed behind him were brutally defeated. they banked on new yorkers hating and fearing each other. and they lost. what a town.

I feel like my main metric for measuring the internet is how often I internally say “oh my god please shut the fuck up” while looking at it, and these days it really is please shut the fuck up almost all the way down.

Horror tropes that mark a movie out as made by hacks:
* Young couple mourning death of a child is haunted by the manifestation of their trauma
* Child draws ominous crayon scrawls at school
* Crow flies into window as portent of impending doom
(Last one did happen to me and was scary tbf.)

Real opening paragraph in an Official Nintendo Magazine feature
"I once punched my younger brother so hard in the chest that he vomited up that morning's breakfast - cornflakes mainly. It wasn't technically the Heimlich manoevre, as he wasn't choking and I wasn't trying to save him-"

jokes aside, can you imagine how you would handle it if you asked a human assistant "did you make all this up instead of actually doing any of the work", and that person responded to you with "good catch"
