This book is bonkers. It includes prose walkthroughs of every level in the first three Super Mario games (plus Super Mario Land) with no screenshots whatsoever.
Imagine getting to, like, World 7-3 and having to come up with a fresh new way of writing "jump over the pipe."

VA Senate president pro tem absolutely rips MD Senate president for opposing redistricting.
Notably, VA Dems win massively *after* pushing for a new map.
And that's how it's supposed to work: There has to be an election after an amendment is proposed so voters can weigh in before it can proceed.

A deep dive into the ABSOLUM, the latest from the Streets of Rage 4 team!
I dig into how it evolves the arcade spirit of games like Capcom's Dungeons and Dragons beat-em-ups, its remix of fantasy tropes, and even its take on gender and identity.

055: Absolum brings the arcade spirit of its fantasy inspirations roaring into the modern age
The latest from Guard Crush Games, one of the main developers on Streets of Rage 4, Absolum takes plenty from their work on SEGA’s brawler. The skeleton of the game can be seen in their experiments...

As many have pointed out, Mamdani didn't stand apart from our trans brothers and sisters. He didn't play the "Gee, gosh, it sure is complicated," milquetoast moderate card. And he crushed.

I feel like Smaug and this post is the black arrow.
