#Excuse
Last tour of the year is over
Had a total blast, drank a lot of stout, and played, what I think, were some of my best shows of the whole year
And now I'm tired as fuck
So if you'll excuse me, I'm going to take a much needed rest, and catch up on Only Connect and Top of the Pops reruns
Over and out

EXCUSE ME, THE WAY I GASPED AND MY JAW DROPPED THE MOMENT I SAW THIS WIRED COVER.

Have they tried that excuse yet with releasing Epstein files, that it’s a matter of national security?!

Only terrible human beings support someone as terrible as he is. There’s no justifiable excuse to vote for a nazi and I won’t be forgiving anyone who did even if they wake up and realize they were wrong. They can all eat shit.

The Nazis will use literally any excuse for their pathetic and craven attacks on other people. Vile People.
December 16, 2025 at 5:06 PM
that's such bullshit, after 10 years there's no excuse

Excuse me, and I never thought I'd write something like this about two people I've always admired, but ...

Where are the fucking Obamas?

Dear leader now wants to try & execute journalists for speaking truth as traitors? Excuse me? It is he who is the traitor and unless he's brain dead he damn well knows it, but they've been twisting truth around for decades & it's 100 X worse now because we let it slide for too long.

Does he do anything? It’s his excuse for everything he doesn’t have an answer to. The whole Republican party is like this—the party of NO or I haven’t reviewed that yet.
December 16, 2025 at 5:03 PM
No. He is the worst President ever and a pathetic excuse for a human being!

i like this because i want more street parties, and having a standing monthly celebration where the whole town shows up to congratulate with new citizens would be a great excuse to make that happen

Because this apparently has to be repeated again: Anyone using GenAI for concepts and placeholders is just looking for an excuse to use GenAI and would use it in the final version if they thought they could get away with it.

i'm actually losing faith in gaming industry now. Larian and Vincke were my heroes, and i was so hyped about new Divinity game

now i'm disappointed and want to cry

while i love both Original Sins and BG3, there is actually no excuse for this

and Vincke's speech about creativity...
Genuinely awful to read, there's no justification for genAI use

Concept art - Where is that being pulled from? Whose art is being used for the dataset? And again, power/water usage

Flesh out Powerpoint - Just why? It's a powerpoint

Placeholder text - LOREM IPSUM IS THERE FOR A REASON

Cannot wait to see people excuse and defend this tirelessly because "Oh but BG3 was SO good though! It's just in the concept art stage that they're using this on!"
NEW: I spoke to Larian boss Swen Vincke about their ambitions for their new RPG Divinity, cutting down development time, pressures from Baldur's Gate 3, why BG3 wouldn't have happened without Tencent, how Larian uses generative AI, and much more www.bloomberg.com/news/newslet...

Yes! In grocery stores if I need to pass with my cart as someone is surveying the items I say excuse me or pardon me. What I notice is no one ever says that to me - and as I have aged I need to look longer for the specific product because there are now 10 variations. It’s sad to me.

Diarrhea. Always the perfect excuse. Nobody wants to delve deeper into it.

Anyway, Merry Christmas...

Rachel, I am so very sorry. I heard the same dismay from Jewish friends in London after the attack on the synagogue. There is no explanation. There is no excuse. These attacks on innocent people are deeply, outrageously wrong. I can only thank you for having the strength to keep sharing the light.

100% - that is what I'm Qing myself about i guess - am I using my nostalgia for these games as an excuse, and that's only a judgement on me, not anyone else. But I also agree there's value in critically, vocally, visibly, dismantling and rebuilding these things! 🔥

The festive season is a time of great joy for many, but for some it is a difficult and challenging period. So please spare a thought for those facing awkward work lunchtime Christmas buffets and nights out they were unable to think of an excuse for missing.

Poor excuse for a human being. Trump makes it about himself. What a pike of steaming 💩
December 16, 2025 at 4:57 PM
Can't even use the excuse that they're "trying to appease shareholders" since they're private. He's just a full-blown believer in AI and anyone who thinks they're going to stop at concept art is kidding themselves.
December 16, 2025 at 4:56 PM
Excuse me???

Excuse me…
