Writer/Irish-born American dumbass. Working (very slowly) on a reference book about the 3DO. Voted funniest man on the northbound Metro Blue Line.

BBC announcer voice: At 6pm we'll be showing Sex Secrets of the Druids, and at 8 it's the entire panel at QI talking about Brexit and randomly pointing a loaded revolver at each other.
I feel like the cumulative mental damage created by uncontrolled marketing -itself an act of mass manipulation of public behavior- is something that we can't unprogram and has to die out generationally.

This guy feels less like a person and more like the avatar for sucky bullshit. A vaporous concept, the genius loci in the simulation that sees how much shit you'll put up with before you realize what's going on and find the exit.
Democrats have been fighting for months to address America's healthcare crisis

For the millions who will lose coverage
For people with cancer who won't get the care they need
For working families who can't afford to pay $25K more a year for healthcare

We will keep fighting

Last call - we are only short on N64, GBA, and MD/Genesis.
I just want to put this out into the universe.

If you are a homebrew developer of a GB, GBC, GBA, NES, SMS, MD/Genesis, N64, or PS1 game with a free version or a free demo of you game, I’d love to ship it with SuperStation as a physical or digital demo disk.
This is a very impressive PS1 game by @eliasdaler.bsky.social running on SuperStation.

Graph pervert: "You are wealthier than anyone ever has been"

Everyone I know: has multiple on-the-books jobs & stuff on the side to afford an apartment 1/20th the size of the house their grandparents owned at age 30 on 1 job. Their clothes, appliances, and cars last half as long for 1000x the cost.

Elon asked Grok to post a rebuttal to his account but clearly he had such a ketamine slur that the AI picked up the words "boring" and "un-scathing" as descriptors.
lol she got his ass and he knows it

Bobcat Goldthwait was asked by TMZ about a potential remake of Police Academy and he said that he felt it was the wrong time for a movie about a bunch of wacky cops, but also said they should make it a comedy this time, like the 21 Jump Street movie.
MY WIFE HAS THE ROOKIE ON AND I SWEAR TO GOD I CANNOT RECKON WITH THE FACT THAT THE COPS ARE SUPPOSED TO BE THE "GOOD GUYS".

Guys, collect mp3s. And CDs. And vinyl. Trust me, it'll change your life.
Spotify is crashing HARD because of the boycott. Their stock dropped 11% in value over the last month. Let’s keep this going!

Tell everyone you know to boycott Spotify. There are plenty of alternatives that don’t run ICE advertisements and screw over artists.

We made it easy at boycottspotify.com.

To put this in scale, Elon Musk's salary from Tesla alone could fund the SNAP program for the entire country into 2034.

Reject modernity etc etc

And honestly, I'm kind of baffled that people care that much about another GTA game. I do get the appeal of the bang bang dick joke game but to make such a cultural moment out of it even as the company destroys lives is a great example of our human zoo.

Every time I hear Dragula I involuntarily think about some mid-range SNL sketch my traitorous brain created where Rob Zombie is at a garden party trying to share his deep, meaningful poem and the other guests are increasingly whipping themselves into a lather as they turn it into the existing song
There’s no description of the Dragula given in the song Dragula so it’s entirely possible that it’s just a normal sedan with a funny name

It's got the testicular feel and shape of bait, but I've played modern games that do most of the work for you and this could be a genuine take.

Wow, Premium, the really expensive membership. This makes the Portal about .00004% less butt.

At least it's not just a handheld that gets useless the moment it's out of home WiFi range, now.
Cloud Streaming officially arrives on PlayStation Portal today.

PS Plus Premium members can now stream select digital PS5 games in their library, in addition to hundreds of compatible games from the Game Catalog and Classics Catalog: play.st/4hShAmg
