Minnmax acted quickly, decisively and rightly this week. But for some on Bluesky it's not enough as the outrage becomes performative in order to win brownie points. They're not happy unless Ben gets whipped on the street for hiring Jacob in the first place.

It's like when white guys cry racism because a white girl is wearing a yukata. Maybe leave it up to Japanese people to decide if something is racist to their culture or not?

Zero horror games in the PS Plus lineup for next month. Boo! But maybe I was expecting too much after October last year we got Alan Wake 2 (which I still haven't played lol).

I started watching Adults as I heard it being called New Girl for a new generation. Yeah, I suppose. If New Girl was unfunny and full of the worst people. Maybe I'll just go and watch New Girl again.

YouTube video using the word Boomer to describe games that came out on the Xbox 360. That's a no from me, dawg.

I think smiley faces are the future of game reviews. Less 6/10, more 😐

New episode! What we've been playing, featuring: - Marvel's Wolverine 🤨 - Silent Hill: Townfall 😊 - Orbitals 🙂 Listen wherever you get podcasts: open.spotify.com/episode/5NfI...

The Resident Evil movie definitely captures the vibe of the series. Segments that reminded of the horror in 7, cut to hilarious over the top nonsense, and game references that made me do the Leo pointing meme. Just because it doesn't have Leon in it doesn't make it a bad RE movie. 4/5

Blank Check is normally good when it comes to vetting its guests. Bit of a disappointment that the latest episode has Krumholtz on.

Forget the mad rush to a oid GTA, the start of next year is already looking packed. Stranger Than Heaven, Persona 4 Revival, Metroid Ravenous, Final Fantasy. Insane.

The more I play Marvel Tokon, the more it scales my best games of the year list. It might crack 3rd at this rate, behind the Capcom duo of Resident Evil Requiem and Pragmata.

AEW all over the place already with this presentation. Paul Wights mic not working, they're saying the wrong matches over the on screen advertisements.

Marvel Tokon easily jumping into my Top 10 games of the year. It's been a hell of a year for quality games. Shame that the executives and people at the top don't appreciate their craft and can't wait to fire people once a game is complete.

Fired up the Xbox 360 today and played some Dark Void. I have such a fondness for that era of games. The Gears of War clones, the indie arcade games, the downloadable classics, I have now even gained a soft spot for the grey brown shooter.

Doom The Dark Age is such good fun. Only a few chapters left and I'm still loving it. It's an absolute crime what Microsoft did to this company.

I accidentally saw a clip of that new Gervais animated cats netflix show. It might be the worst thing I've ever seen, and I've seen The Green Inferno. I guess now we can finally accept that Merchant was the reason The Office and Extras were good.

Took a trip to see Death Note The Musical. I was absolutely delighted that they changed THAT part in the story where a young kid gets introduced (if you know, you know). Songs were catchy too.

Just accidentally witnessed that "please pay for the BBC licence fee" advert. The utter brass balls for putting the News in there. The constant platforming of Farage and co has helped get us to where we are now. I'd happily pay for the license fee if they split off from their awful news coverage.

Let's be absolutely clear: there is no amount of new drilling in the North Sea that Burnham could approve which would be consistent with our climate goals. If we are to avoid complete climate breakdown, we need to turn all effort to clean renewable energy - not doubling down on dirty fossil fuels.

bloomberg.comBurnham to Back North Sea Oil and Take Control of Thames WaterWithin days of taking office incoming Prime Minister Andy Burnham is preparing to announce new drilling for oil and gas in the North Sea as well as taking public control of Thames Water.

i haven't been keeping up with whatever the performative outrage discourse was wrt the odyssey movie. i saw the reviews were good so i went to watch the trailer on youtube & 100% of the comments are about how the movie is going to flop really hard & ruin nolan's career. nailed it again lads

Thought I'd tried Modern Warfare 3 campaign as it's free on PS Plus at the moment. A low for COD campaigns. Retrofitted multiplayer maps? Really? In the bin you go.

Getting forced to watch my horror movies in the early morning before the sun turns me into a sweaty mess and I'm forced to fire up the noisy Aircon unit. Let's check out Lee Cronins The Mummy directed by Lee Cronin.
