Personal music. When I was a kid, an FM+Cassette Walkman with garbage foam headphones was hot shit. Now I have a wristwatch that plays thousands of CD quality songs wirelessly to far better earbuds. Plus I can ask for virtually any song from decades of recorded music (while running) and it plays

Last month we lost our jobs. This month we made new ones. Introducing X BUTTON: an independent gaming network from three ex-IGN employees. A new weekly Nintendo podcast! A new weekly video game podcast! And that’s just the start, but we can’t do it without your help! www.patreon.com/cw/XButtonShow

STOP LETTING JD VANCE MEET POPES

the question here isn’t “why are we part of a media ecosystem that doesn’t give a microscopic fuck about truth,” nah, it’s “why didn’t talarico’s campaign keep us from looking like gullible rubes”

Great read. “They're incredibly well positioned to leverage their contacts and love of technical innovation to help build better platforms for journalists. Instead, we got a lot of weak-kneed white supremacy apologia and a face full of sorry-ass gaslighting.”

Should have used this Friday. A coworker dropped a 1,000 word “analysis” to me in a slack reply.

An absolute giant.

Amazon thinks of me as someone who “likely maintains vehicle proactively” and “Owns multiple Nintendo 3DS systems”. I’ve bought air filters and 3DS hard cases in multiple sizes. So, not exactly a stretch. www.theverge.com/tech/1006712...

This homebrew mega man game for PICO-8 is called Kiloman. As I said to no one, out loud: “Kiloman? That’s so fucking good” www.lexaloffle.com/bbs/?tid=159...

Eddie Vedder & Friends, The Honking Seals, Piss Bottle Men, what have you... Thank you, Ohana! 🌊 See you Sunday!

@p1podcast.com @superpac.bsky.social @sewart.bsky.social I don’t see this week’s aftershow in the feed yet. Is it still coming or did your best friend Mike make it so tough you can’t post it 😀?

[spelling bee] JUDGE: your word is "pantomime" KID: can you use it in a sentence JUDGE: *doesn’t answer because he's trapped in an invisible box*

the fact that john ossoff can kick off a two-day media cycle by saying that the president is uninterested in doing his job and is sleeping through meetings and traveling around with a young blonde, suggests that not enough of these guys are speaking plainly and effectively about these assholes

I think polio is bad and the vaccine for it is good.

The very tedious return of covid lockdown discourse reminded me of this series of pandemic propaganda posters I made during the 2020 "get back to work" push

If you show up to Bluesky without following anyone, you'll be treated to a series of posts about art, music, and dogs. If you show up to X without following anyone, you'll be bombarded with right-wing conspiracies and white supremacist slop. It's weird which one is seen as a "political bubble"

The system ONLY dreams in total darkness

Me: What about that time I saw 11 sets of footprints in the sand Jesus: Look it’s a public beach

Same. But it’s also my favorite from the years I did not turn 18.

I want to congratulate the administration here. For this mass deportation effort they promised to find the most dangerous people in the country, the worst of the worst. And that’s exactly who they found. Now let’s show them justice.

I regret to inform you that I am now a projector guy™️

On Bluesky? All of us

Watched this yesterday and it was fantastic. Give me this lo-fi show any day of the week over the CBS one. I mean, Colbert sucks helium and sings Fell in Love with a Girl while Jack White looks on, then provides facts about Sasquatch extinction.

Fuck it dude. Let’s go bowling.

I just think they're neat
