the forced self-censorship gibberish we all have to do on social media now is having a devastating effect on the way people communicate with each other. nobody in a healthy society is saying "unalived"
Do you have any extremely niche, but serious, ethical stances?

It's between Shogun and Interview With The Vampire for the single best pilot I've ever seen, and I think it's gotta be the latter. I felt like screaming when the credits started.
Holy shit, the INTERVIEW WITH THE VAMPIRE pilot is *astounding.* I’m absolutely gobsmacked at how much I loved it.

Started and finished both seasons of Interview With The Vampire this week — easily one of the best shows I've ever seen, and an immediate all-time favorite.

I already want to rewatch it all.

The endings of Life Is Strange, A Plague Tale: Requiem, and Arthur's story in Red Dead Redemption II.

In that order; nothing comes close to them for me.
What's the most EMOTIONAL moment you've ever experienced in a video game?

The Plague Tale games have been on my mind so much lately.

I could never go through it all again, but I really miss them... there's something so special about them, and their effect has lasted so strongly with me ever since.

I know they were highly received but I wish more people experienced them.
I understand there's way darker games out there tonally and aesthetically but I don't think there'll ever be a story in mainstream gaming darker and more emotionally horrifying than A Plague Tale...

Like comparatively it makes The Last of Us Part II seem cheerful. It's just devastating.

I hate it when a curiously gregarious pair of thugs, one large and one wiry, surprise me and beat the hell out of me in an attempt to ward me off of a mystery but who instead only confirm to me that I'm onto something.

Not even a slightly spontaneous person but I just woke up and within three minutes committed financial parkour and bought a whole new graphics card for my PC, entirely unplanned.

Rediscovered steroids and caffeine today for the sake of a family event and THOROUGHLY fucked myself up for the next week or so.

This'll be fun 🥲
Been a really rough few weeks since I started some new meds and altering existing doses. No idea if any of it'll pay off; probably not, but it's worth trying.

Just looking forward to being halfway stable and capable of doing things again. It's times like this I feel more ghost than person. #MECFS

Pirates. Shanties. Mayan temples. Sharks. Digital recreation of the 18th Century Caribbean. And a powerful and emotional story, with an ending that made me cry like a baby.

Black Flag is by far my favorite Assassin's Creed game of all time.

Assassin's Creed: Origins admittedly has a special place in my heart. The Greco-Roman Ancient Egyptian setting was just incredible, and it's my favorite of the recent RPG Assassin's Creeds. Not a perfect game, but one that gave me amazing memories.

...I don't have the self-awareness to know what these reveal about me.

I like overly theatrical yet sincere melodrama? And also some sad Tom Cruise yearning?

Calling this a "tribute edition" while reanimating a dead man's voice with AI generated material stolen from his actual work to erase someone else's is insane; there's so many layers to how fucked up this is, and it's all coming from the worst kind of fanboy entitlement.

It's pathetic.
