hall of fame "gamer as a protected class" post here
The rumor: Ghost of Tsushima was made by the dev team on the left, Yotei by the dev team on the right. It was shared by Kern, centered in a video by one of their more religion-focused obsessives, and otherwise taken as gospel.

i think we're looking at it from the wrong angle. andrew tate is an abusive pimp. women are to be treated like cigars, consumed and disposed of for status.

what is it that my friend always says? players are usually correct in identifying the existence of a problem, but they are almost always wrong about what the solution to that problem should be
One of the producers on Guilty Gear Strive said it was basically impossible to source player feedback on balance changes online because nobody had original opinions and would just parrot what the most popular content creators said and so they had to rely on data and I think about that every day.

the "shamshir" in elden ring is obviously not a shamshir. There is an actual shamshir in there, but for some reason they call it the "bandit's curved sword"

why does the western media talk about these premeditated killings like they're weather events
BREAKING: At least 24 people are dead and 54 wounded after Israeli airstrikes in Gaza, testing the ceasefire that began in October, officials say.

couldn't get more than two paragraphs into that free birth article. childbirth is probably the most cronenbergian regular occurrence in the world, and we've deluded ourselves into it being a beautiful miracle. we're so alienated from our processes, like raw milk people who boil it first.

Jair Bolsonaro is the absolute master of having things happen to him that you could have sworn happened to him two or three times already.
"Brazil’s former far-right president, Jair Bolsonaro, has been arrested at his villa in the capital, Brasília, amid suspicions he was poised to abscond to a foreign embassy to avoid going to prison for masterminding a military coup."

for some reason my brain keeps thinking of how funny it would be if some median voter moron tried to kill biden for reasons unclear to even them. news arriving daily about trump eating babies and some numpty still thinks biden's president because he personally wrote him in.

need a "no gods no mayors" like podcast at the provincial level, mostly because Mayor Shit™️ in Australia happens at the state level, but it also seems Lusophone political shenanigans aren't exclusive to the municipal level
So this week, the libertarian governor of Minas Gerais, Brazil’s second-largest state, pulled a Guinness stunt.
He bussed 20,000 public school kids to a soccer stadium for the “world’s largest AI class,” sponsored by Gemini.
The kids promptly broke into a massive brawl.

occurred to me this is like Holly in Red Dwarf insisting on the Rimmer hologram specifically because him being so annoying is more likely to keep Lister sane
thinking about how nobody really went crazy from cleverbot back in the day, and in retrospect that's probably because cleverbot was a massive confrontational asshole. i miss it sometimes.

funny that there's a right wing version of this where every john mcnaughton painting has a complementary pdf and video where he goes through what every part of his painting is supposed to represent and mean. literally leaving nothing to interpretation.
the rest of my life is gonna be every month or 2 getting a text or pm like "hey i saw your old tweet on ____ and it had a bunch of updoots and imbeciles arguing in the comments"
