If y'all really boycotting Google, I better not see y'all on YouTube when you need to look up a video tutorial on something. 👀

One of the best things about the Back to the Future movies, is that it knew when to STOP. It didn’t need to drag on forever like SW or Marvel or Jurassic Park or even Ghost Busters, they made a Trilogy and decided “Ok that’s enough”.
‘Back to the Future’ writer Bob Gale says they’ll never make a fourth film

“People always say, ‘When are you guys going to do a Back to the Future 4?’ And we say, ‘Fuck you’ … And you can quote me on this”

Jerry Lawson invented the video game cartridge. He's the reason they stopped making pong consoles in the 1970s. If it weren't for him, the Atari 2600 and many others would literally NEVER exist at all.
Nintendo, Atari, & Sega happened because of him, Jerry Lawson. #BlackHistory

Feel bad for MultiVersus devs, who largely had nothing to do with the major decisions that devestated the game's momentum.

Taking a game offline for like 2 years at the peak of its popularity is bizarre, just to bring it back with worse monetisation. Brilliant gambit.
MultiVersus is shutting down, with online servers closing on May 30 when Season 5 content concludes.

The game will remain playable in an offline mode.

Way to completely undermine and insult the crew that brought this to life, as well as completely spit on the spirit of the character.
Peter Parker voice actor Hudson Thomas says his biggest fear about #YourFriendlyNeighborhoodSpiderMan was that it was going to be 'annoying and woke'

"And it wasn't ... It's so well written"

He says this when the showrunner is a black man.

Somehow I don't think the crew are reacting much better to this than we are.

If it's not broken, don't fix it. I feel that was the philosophy in designing the Switch 2. I'm glad they went this route. It's the same reason I prefer the second iteration of an iPhone than its redesign. When you keep hardware similar, you have more bandwidth to improve software and performance.

The reaction to Elon’s salute compared to Will Smith’s slap? Quite telling.

(And some of us are sick and tired of telling y’all. It’s egregious hypocrisy.)

Yes, there are terribly, shitty, godawful right wing trans people. I don't get it either. But you don't get to deadname them for that. Deadnaming a trans person you don't like just shows us that your support of trans people is conditional.

Just rewatched Mulholland Drive today. Man, David Lynch was truly a master.
