University, comic books, videogames and too much politics for a normal person to be interested in. Autistic n Nigerian Free Palestine check this out
I appreciate the diligence of salon’s reporting here
Nigeria is an incredible place. Like where else do the terrorist militias refer on chat gpt
I agree that massacring civilians is bad! following this logic, I would consider the state of Israel unimaginably evil. Surely this good fellow would apply those same standards—ah, nevermind There’s so many guys on this platform more bothered by bad tweets than Genocide.
What the fuck is wrong with gamers? Tweets like this and many others with a similar sentiment) have five-digit likes and aren’t even that controversial. It’s one thing not to care about game developers but the outright maliciousness is shocking.
For all the complaints I have about the gaming industry, gaming *culture* is absurdly malicious and I have no idea how to fix this. There just isn’t a literature/movie equivalent to stuff like this and it sucks
Denmark is a good example of how even if your country is extremely homogenous *and* has fantastic social welfare *and* is a generally nice place to live, you still get hit with asinine nonsense like this. And this party gets a fair amount of support!
Some of the hardest I’ve laughed in a while. extraordinary honestly
The article does address the first point at least. These screenshots are a very small snippet of it but the tl;dr is that the gap in sales likely is motivated by ai usage even when (crudely) controlling for genre, experience, etc.
Indie animation take I’ve ruminated on for a while. Speaking as a big fan of glitch productions lol
Saw a cool game on steam and bought it. Due to my twitter detox I did not see the gigantic discourse that would've soured me on it beforehand. I may be healing
to play devil's advocate for the mostly-teenagers that make this complaint, these strike me as jokes people obsessed with porn. there's puritanism for sure but it's not this. arguably this people (in their mind) pushing back against oversexualization. also this is not conservative christianity--
To this end I have a long-running "list of cool words I came across" notepad file.
the state shouldn’t kill him tor the reason the state shouldn’t rape him: cruel and unusual punishment is a waste of time and resources. Emotional satisfaction does not make for great legal theory.
I think about this a lot whenever some comedians start to do the rounds about cancel culture
As manically annoying as these articles always are, I am surprised to see that their breakpoint wasn’t just “you mean the price of oil DIDNT come down?”
Above all else, we must hold Aaron Rupar in our prayers,
Neat article! Though I am forced to comment that Joel doesn’t 100% fit into this framework, at least when compared to Kratos / Lee. Although he kind of does in the last of us 2 haha
in fairness I didn't give DND a pass. for the other two, I tried to highlight that they are different from Frieren more than them being 'good'. I could probably have scrutinized LOTR more but then it'd be a different essay, you know?
