I am nearing the end of my Look Outside playthrough and it is an absolutely incredible game, well worth your time. It's going on my must-play list.

I am looking seriously askance at any indie GOTY shortlist that includes Clair Obscur but not Look Outside.

"What is obvious, however, is that the Democrats who both voted to initiate the shutdown and then caved in the face of no material change of circumstance were either wrong 41 days ago or are wrong now."

One of the most fun sports games ever. A brilliant distillation. Played it a ton as a kid with my brother, and it is STILL fun to boot up and play today. Highly recommended to any indie game developer. The combo of limited scope, dynamic replayability, and top notch gamefeel is worth aspiring to

For my second attempt at King of Dragon Pass I used Poetry whenever the game let me. My warriors swiftly grew irritated with me.

SCOOP: Last year, Ubisoft cancelled an Assassin's Creed game set during Reconstruction. Was to feature a Black Assassin who, among other things, fought the rise of the Klan

Sources: Leadership nixed it over concerns re: U.S. political climate, backlash to Yasuke

This photo's so fucking old it's got $1.19/gal gas.
A zoomed-in crop of the photo in the CNN post showing that the gas station next door has gas for $1.19/$1.29 per gallon. In other words, this photo's FUCKING OLD.

I played Strange Antiquities, and I think the moral of the story is that people probably shouldn't leave me in charge of distributing strange objects.

America’s military leadership has more important things to do than listen to lectures on character from an unqualified drunk who assaults women.

Any soldier who was as careless as Hegseth was with war plans would be fired if not prosecuted.

And everyone in that room knows it.
