Hey, all! I'll try to post on here when I think of it - been very busy these days, if my last upload date was any hint. Whether you're here from the channel or a new viewer, thanks for keeping up with whatever I'm making. Peace 💙
For those curious on the video efforts: I've just reached the next part of editing today! For context, that's part 5/8 (8 being quite short). Gradual climb, but with enough push, I might be able to get it all done within the 2 year mark of the video's conception! Wouldn't that be something?

"placeholder text" "concept art" either the temporary thing you put in matters to the process, in which case you need to get a human to work on it, or it doesn't, in which case you can just as easily put a bright pink rectangle that says PLACEHOLDER in and save everyone time and effort

Reminder to add TOKYO GODFATHERS to your Christmas movie watchlist this season! Grateful to have given (English, dubbed) voice to the trans anime icon, our beloved Hana, in this Satoshi Kon holiday classic from @gkids.com! Watch it for free on Tubi or rent it on AppleTV!

What a great day to be thankful for what you have! Once you start to see the value in “obsolete” technology, it’s impossible to justify just how short our upgrade cycles have become.

Call me crazy, but I think TVs, phones, computers, etc SHOULD last for decades.

Happy to say my video is now halfway edited (for context, that's like 75% of the video done when including everything that's not editing). How will this turn out? No idea, but I'm having fun making it!

It's always fun seeing reactions to Skyline from anyone outside of the Midwest. We're having a normal one out here, just look at what we eat!
I feel like this is American beans on toast
It's about 50% pasta, 50% shredded cheese, and 20% chili.

Valve just updated their Steam rules to ban content that “may violate rules set by payment processors or banks.” Sounds boring. It’s not. It’s the quiet normalization of financial censorship and it’s going to hurt LGBTQ+ games and devs

Killer7 divided audiences and critics when it came out 20 years ago, but its influence and esteem only continues to grow. Here's @marcnormandin.bsky.social on the lasting impact of one of Suda51's first hits. www.endlessmode.com/video-games/...
Killer7's Influence Continues to Grow 20 Years Later
There’s a difference between shock for shock’s sake and giving players what they don't expect. Killer7 is made entirely out of the latter.

Feels like the videogame crash should actually be localized nearly entirely to the US cause the way Microsoft functions is a world's difference from how Japanese or French or even Canadian studios operate due to laws on the books

Meanwhile, Xbox's PR has been very much "This is fine" dog energy. The amount of layoffs, I can't even begin to fathom. Really worry for the future of other Xbox studios. This all feels like a fast sinking ship.
Microsoft is cancelling Perfect Dark and The Initiative Studio is being closed.

This is a result of the layoffs that were announced today effecting the entirety of Team Xbox.

According to Louie, the Ivory Candypop Bud will spoil within seconds of being plucked out of the ground. This may somehow be tied to the innate poison of White Pikmin, as other colors of Buds do not have this problem.

Essentially the entire summary of what I'm working on right now. I can't wait to do some quicker videos after this one. But rest assured, the one I'm making is probably my proudest achievement.
Been working on an extremely hard research-intensive video that's so draining I just kinda started writing something else for fun, and I can already tell the "fun" one is going to get like 5 times the views for 1/5 the effort

There is no game like this game. Up there in the top 10 of all time for me, no question. Feel like I learn something new every time I play it.
Happy 20th anniversary to killer7!

Originally released in Japan on the GameCube and PS2, June 9, 2005.
