EVERYBODY GO READ THE BEST PIECE OF WRITING ON THIS GAME!! artemis is one of the best writers out there right now and i'm always happy to force a peer to play one of my favorite weird mediocre games
New Stop Caring article from yours truly.

@quimbles.bsky.social forced me to play the impressively mediocre videogame The Evil Within, so to """spite""" them I wrote about how the forced stealth section at the beginning reminded me of having sex with men.

Always appreciate a read or a share!
Sex With a Sadist
The psycho-homosexual drama of The Evil Within's intro.

OH I was not aware this piece was coming out today! Yay for Thursday!

Anyway, my first feature at what’s now @theavclubgames.bsky.social is about Spooky Express and how it made me reckon with my feeling about mobile games:

Last week, my former housemate punched me multiple times in the eye, forcing me to break the lease for the beautiful apartment we shared and move in with a trusted friend

As I try to rebuild my life and find more permanent housing, I would greatly appreciate any support you could offer Stop Caring
Stop Caring
A publication about video games focused on the ways they evoke unique cultural conversations as well as the personal lessons we can learn from them as artistic media.

The proliferation of AI is also a bizarre symptom of how non-functional the American government has become.

In a functional system, the Consumer Product Safety Commission is taking action to prevent harm to users.

The Patent and Trademark Office is blocking the theft of work.

Just want you to know that when I asked Geoff why he gave the silent treatment to an open letter written by his own "future of games" program (& co-signed by 3000+ industry peers), he replied:

"Because that's my show and nobody gets to tell me how I should use my platform". 💀💀💀

"Steve Mason either learns to be the Reaper or defaults to the reaped."

@jhensliterature.bsky.social draws parallels between Harvester's suburban hellscape and the American suburb's foundation of violence:
Harvester and the American Reaper - Unwinnable
To be a proud American is to constantly condone the legacies of violence and bloodshed that still haunt us.

Gaming Alexandria is a huge deal in game culture preservation. Incredible organization. Probably the single most important group this side of the VGHF

I reference their work constantly for @hyruleinterviews.bsky.social!
Hard to believe it's already been ten years that Gaming Alexandria has been around. Here's a (late) article about our history, as well as special thanks and small blurbs from others of what Gaming Alexandria has meant to them. Here's to another ten years! www.gamingalexandria.com/wp/2025/11/g...

The Funko Pop is something that we wish we could uninvent, like nuclear weapons and synthetic nerve agents.
Funko is $250 million in debt.

The company behind the Pop! vinyl figurines you have undoubtedly seen absolutely everywhere warns it may not last another 12 months without an acquition or additional funding.
