I always imagine this kind of poster as a psyop. Not because I particularly believe it to be true, but because I want to resist misanthropy. Imagining a faithful opposition of Internet devils out to deceive me is less demoralizing than tiresome try-hard nihilists with their thumbs up their asses.

you shouldn’t learn about bands from shady TikTok manipulation, you should learn about bands by hanging out with a girl you like but are also extremely afraid of

(in the family group chat): that wont matter. without radical change all of this is meaningless in fifteen years. we have no idea how dire things are (in the communist group chat): they should make a turn based final fantasy again with the two minute summon animations

A critical element of games culture today is that there's a common in-group experience. For the same reason nobody wants to hear about the dream you had last night, a unique and irreproducible game experience has diminished cultural value.

People who know about game design: Do you think open-world procedural narrative on the fly is bottlenecked by hardware, or is it a situation where players just don’t in practice want the openness that sounds cool in theory?

I could see LLM procedural generation helping to fill in the gaps and add perceived depth with richer interactions "in the small", working within the constraints of a designed world and narrative. But truly open possibility spaces are much more of a niche market than most assume.

Bluesky knew the strait of Hormuz, Graham Platner, and AIPAC democrats were all cooked months before the experts did. Meanwhile Twitter was convinced Spencer Pratt would win and the Odyssey would bomb. Which site is the not-real-life echo chamber again?

"I ask all of you to think of it, graduates and families alike, let yourself dream of a future in which we can harness this amazing new technology to eliminate entry-level jobs entirely. Indeed, that work has already begun, and that future is now." /college kid booing intensifies "Wow okay,"

On its third attempt tonight, Marblehead Town Meeting approved an “MBTA Communities–compliant” district largely centered on the 125-year-old Tedesco Country Club, meeting 3A requirements on paper while all but assuring no new housing would be built. This comment says it all.

Middlebrow media enjoyers rise up. We want art with complex stories and emotional nuance featuring characters with interiority and yes we also want them to solve a murder or be a spy or kill a vampire or something

“This technology disrupts humanities trained, largely Democratic [often female] voters, and makes their economic power less, and increases the economic power of vocationally trained working class, often male voters." - Alex Karp, CEO of Palantir — Wild to see AI disruption framed this way.

always so funny to me when people are like “how am I supposed to explain Gay to my kids?” my kid asks me way harder shit all the time. “why did they build the road this way? why are some people bad?” I don’t know. please ask me about Gay

I think one of the biggest reasons it’s happening here is that many people still believe it can’t happen here.

Don Moynihan@donmoyn.bsky.social

One theme here is the speed of American institutional collapse. “It took Erdoğan 15 years to do what Trump did in 100 days. If [Americans] do not accept the fact that this is a long game, and it will be brutal, I think you won’t have the patience and stamina to bear it.”

In general, pretty much all video game adjacent IP from the 1990s is an utter disaster today rights wise. It's why GOG has to hire private detectives to figure out who even is the IP holder for a lot of games. The constant cycle of studio closures and mergers created a real mess.

notice the general mood of the timeline? how everyone is in a good mood and there’s a lot less misery and dooming? how there’s a lot of “we’re going to beat these assholes”? anyway that’s why these events are important

Writing like this, you love to see it: > We can’t say for sure what history Trump has “knowledge” about, but this narrative is nonsense.
