I’m not a political journalist, so was gladly surprised at the community I found here last night. To Americans anxious about the upcoming elections, a key thing we learned in Brazil that might help you: DO NOT engage with the far-right online. Don’t share rage bait. Amplify your people. Ignore them.

I think people intuitively understand that democratic candidates tossing trans kids to the wolves is not only morally repugnant but also politically ineffective, otherwise they wouldn't freak out every time someone said they weren't voting for a democrat who did this

You have been visited by the Sweater Kitty of Softness. We can't guarantee any good luck or anything will happen to you, but you can say "Thank you, sof meow" to her anyway, I think she'd appreciate it.

when people push back against the idea of arcade games being "quarter munchers", it's not to deny the idea that they were made to make money, or to give the impression that people would 1CC them on their first try it's just asking to not dismiss them as being completely lacking in value as games

I am seeing a lot of “I didn’t know going for one credit clears was even a *thing*” in response to this, and folks, let me direct you to my wonderful partner @lordbbh.bsky.social and his archive of 750+ 1CC Twitch streams

Painful review of the Capcom Beat 'Em Up Bundle on Steam that really highlights how destructive the continue system was to people's perception of arcade games. The beat 'em ups mentioned play wildly different from one another if you're actually trying to survive on 1 credit.

You have to laugh at the sheer insanity of Turning Point UK being found to be organising literal contract killings and paid agitation at protests up and down the country and it barely even raises a flicker across the press. If that isn't 'terrorism' on some level I don't really know what is

The whole world no longer smells like cigarettes.

Social media loves talking about how everything is getting worse. But what’s something that you’ve seen get _better_ in your lifetime?

really the thing about it is that it's not even about getting the 1CC as much as it is just actively going in with the intent of Trying Hard Not To Lose that reveals the goodness of a lot of arcade games (and the badness of plenty too!)

thinking back to the arcades I went to as a kid, it was games with no continues that I actually started to learn and get better at, while it was ones with continues that I basically dissociated in the general direction of until the game told me to put in more money
