ah yes, the joys of sewing, sitting and repeatedly stabbing ruffles through lace, showing myself that i am a god among mortal men who can never be stopped…except by an empty bobbin.

We're experimenting with format on WUHIT for one night and will watch @hbomberguy.bsky.social's Roblox_OOF.MP3 instead of many different videos.
We'll still start with music and end with a Joe, but come through in 50 minutes to learn about a veritable video game industry icon.

The House votes 427-1 to approve a measure that would require the Justice Department to release the Epstein files.
House votes to approve releasing the Epstein files by a near unanimous margin
The measure would compel the DOJ to release files regarding convicted sex offender Jeffrey Epstein. It now goes to the Senate, where some lawmakers want extra guardrails around what can be released.

Game reviewers should use the full range of scores and opinions available to them. It’s not a healthy cultural environment otherwise. Tommy Wiseau worked really hard on The Room but that doesn’t make it a good movie.

It appears our beloved Rebecca Heineman has now passed on. She lived her life in such a way as to leave a trail of joy in her wake next to a long list of creative accomplishments. She was a fixture in many communities and a titan in games history. Becky was the best kind of person.

Lex's Call of Duty review treats Call of Duty like it's art that says something, not a product. It is an essential review of Call of Duty that has the gall to examine it as more than a yearly excuse to play army man and kill other people online with your buddies. You should read it.

I actually do go out of my way in my review to contextualise how Call of Duty's yearly release cycle and use of AI actually undermines and devalues the countless hours of hard work that humans put in at these companies, but go off, I guess?
Also, wanna say that Hogwarts Legacy part a bit louder?

As someone who works with a team who puts in a lot of time, effort, and perspective review into what we do.....
I'm extremely tired of the "take a personal stand reviews" we're seeing more and more of. Reviews are always opinions but the stuff we've seen from Hogwarts to ARC Raiders is @$%*

Today, Paste Magazine shuttered all its non-music verticals, a choice I am both professionally and personally heartbroken about. Sadly, I am once again looking for a place that wants to let me write about Books and TV on the regular, so hit me up if that’s you or anyone you know.

This is a great obit, and I appreciated Alice’s fight for Palestinians in Gaza being highlighted. I also want to give a shout out to Miles for asking permission to cite my post when technically you don’t have to do that re media law but still an ethical thing to do.

got sucked into a manic crafting black hole today and did about half of my wig today. i am god again. my girlfriend and i have also decided to carry unsettlingly realistic photos of each other’s pony on our person - mine in a keychain misprint that says “I 💕 my girlfreind” and theirs in their wallet
i sewed the hems and elastic channels in place today, as well as my tiny lil ears, therefore i am a god and nothing will ever stop me
think faux fur, tulle, lace trim, box pleats, beads, bows - it’s gonna be NUTS lol

almost comical that the parents that refused to even say hello or thank you to me the last time i paid for their daughter to see them wanted me to do it again. and of course they’re making my partner deliver that request to me, the partner their family refuses to meet.
this is to say: parents, it is actually incredibly crappy to pretend your child’s partner(s) don’t exist and you do not want to interact with said partner when communication actually needs to happen for safety and wellbeing. that’s really conditional love and *really awful* for everyone involved
