On this day in 1999, Cartoon Network aired a 24-hour Scooby-Doo marathon for Halloween. The marathon was filled with little clips between episodes parodying THE BLAIR WITCH PROJECT which had been released in theaters just a few a few months earlier. Link below for the first 12hs of the marathon.

I have been meaning to write about this for a month or so now but it breaks my heart. AI has infected every hobby. Everything is noise. It's hurting existing communities and trudging through the slop is exhausting.

the last thing I want to say about generative ai

the era ended a long time again but this is still so fucking bleak to see. this didn't need to happen. heartbreaking. we are in hell.

“I am, somehow, less interested in the weight and convolutions of Einstein’s brain than in the near certainty that people of equal talent have lived and died in cotton fields and sweatshops.”

Do you think that in 2000 years when the colors fade people will assume that funko pops were always little grey plastic guys the way we think of roman statues

It annoys me that a transformers meme is this true of the human condition.

ah damn, RIP Margaret Hamilton. she took safety-critical software engineering seriously, and got people to the moon and back. news.mit.edu/2026/margare...

George: She put Baldur’s Gate 3 on her “games that made me” 3x3! Jerry: So? You like that game. George: Don’t you see? It’s too new to have made her. I can’t be with a woman who doesn’t respect prompts. Kramer: Minnesota Fats Pool Legend, now that’s a game

mmygod

This whole thread makes me feel like my scalp is on fire. I feel like some of us have been shouting the bolded part here for years and they just tweeted it out (in court).

this was the awards show equivalent to “I want shorter games with worse graphics made by people who are paid more to work less and I'm not kidding" and it dying because there weren’t enough creative people followed by an ominous speech by one of the greats should be a canary in a coal mine situation

If you're in the mood to play some Zelda: Ocarina of Time right now for some unknown reason, I hylianly recommend this kickass ROMhack. "The Ultimate Trial" turns OOT into a Rogue-like Souls-like campaign that teaches you how massively influential it was on 3D combat www.youtube.com/watch?v=3t1m...

Guys, Super BunnyHop is right. This slaps. I finally FINALLY get this epic. The dry way it's been shown to me before wasn't it, this is. www.youtube.com/watch?v=jJ9v...

Nancy 9/7/26 … Happy Labor Day 🛠️

Bro fuck off this is awful. Borderline irresponsible article. If I was one of the people behind Dawnwalker I'd be outraged at their use of my game for the photo here.

CHADLEY: cloud. i'm happy to tell you that in this next mission, you can go in guns blazing. Or! you can take the stealthy approach

This is the letter kids got at the end of Dolly’s Imagination Library. I defy you to read this and not cry.

She also really debunks the common justifications about religion, region, and age. Your grandparents and parents have shitty values because they have shitty values, not because of anything else. They could do better. Anyone can use their eyes to see the world and have the correct read.

i have done what many said is impossible. i have made an order guide for playing the entire kingdom hearts series, for normal people. i hope this can be a helpful resource to at least one person out there:

on a big walk with you ❤️☁️ #art #bigwalk

Ocarina of Time is mostly about the differences between childhood and manhood, which mainly that boils down to having three pairs of shoes that you have to cycle through regularly instead of one.

The US really just doesn't have the architecture to do Dark Souls 3-style eclipses

The only responsible attitude for liberals and progressives to align on is that all right-wing grievances, claims and believes are not only false, but malicious lies. Nothing passes the mouth of an American conservative in public life that is not meant to harm and destroy the lives of millions.

nobuo uematsu is possibly the most famous and well acclaimed video game composer of all time. indisputably he's in the top 3. and i'm gonnna say it: he's probably still underrated

Here’s Why Weather Forecasts Have Seemed So Inaccurate Lately. Meteorologists simply aren't able to gather as much data as they used to, and you're suffering for it. gizmodo.com/heres-why-we...

He's credited by Japan's cultural historians as having personally saved enormous amounts of folklore from being completely lost, too. Hundreds of yokai legends are only known now because he collected them from remote communities that are themseles often gone.

my extreme emotional response to this has been instantly clarifying: im like a starving man. the absence of inspirational leaders who appeal to my better angels and challenge me to do more has been completely corrosive. how can any community live like this, with no lived moral center at all

It's obviously infuriating when this happens but I take a little issue with the "literacy crisis" framing of this topic because I kind of believe at most points in history, people were a bunch of dipshits who wouldn't change their mind. We're just exposed to more of them now.

If anyone sees this and missed the context of what Spike is talking about here, it is this video from Doctors Without Borders #sdgq #msf

@doctorswithoutborders.org is the embodiment of compassion knows no borders. When we say we're here together, we mean it. Here to stand for what is right and together as a collective to help those in need. Don't underestimate the impact of your support making this world a better place ❤️ #SGDQ2026

lol, lmao

Shout out to this mental health wellness check ad that was at the LACC during AX that's using Cloud as an example of someone who needs a therapist
