i have enough love for lionhead to be sad about it but molyneux's career has been characterised by outright grifts for over a decade now, and his customers and staff have bourn the costs. he can't be discussed without that context

NEW: Remedy's latest game, Control Resonant, is filled with art galleries. The galleries are filled with real art When I began talking to Remedy about it, I was delighted to discover who the artists are: many are the game developers' parents My story... www.gamefile.news/p/control-re...

it's gotta be so miserable living like this, man. to not find incredible joy in working with others, to see the discovery that comes from the clashing of different tastes and experiences colliding as an obstacle and not the whole goddamn point of it all.

Brazilians recommending not to amplify right-wing talking points by dunking and quoting, as a winning strategy Next day, my tl is full of people dunking on rfk jr I literally would not have seen the bigotry if it wasn't for y'all repeating it. That's exactly what the Brazilians were on about!

Refusing to have sawdust in your hamburger is becoming an extremely privileged lifestyle choice that feels social justicey while actually being the complete opposite

my nuclear-grade AI hot take that’s sure to get me cancelled until kingdom come is that refusing to use AI at all is rapidly becoming an extremely privileged lifestyle choice that feels social justice-y while actually being the complete opposite

Stupid Never Dies is an interesting and very weird game so far. However: having a "Were- chihuahua" is something magical and oddly terrifying as someone who's dealt with the lil bastards in the past.

China’s first AI-generated theatrical feature has flopped, earning just $181,000 in its first weekend. By contrast, the scrappy ‘Niu Lai’ turned its crude animation into a viral attraction, grossing nearly $10 million a couple of months ago. www.cartoonbrew.com/box-office-r...

The God of Bad Art gets offerings from all over the world, but in Their temple, They sometimes appear. "Why bad art?" I ask. "It is brave", the God replies. "To try and fail?" "No," the God chuckles. "Any creative work is a defiance of entropy, of Death itself. If you create, you do not fail."

Artist is “Hayden Clay” but I imagine this is how most historical artifacts in Caves of Qud look:

Years ago while I was still developing the whole meme format, I toyed with the idea of having a "Punny Pavel" spin-off. Never really got the traction that Jellico did. #StarTrek #JellicoTrek Rest in Piece Walter. You were the absolute best as Bester.

Not only an incredible talent, but a rare talent who also thought it was funny to just voice random memes every once in a while

Lula has been reelected president, Brazilian media has now called. An extraordinary comeback for the left-wing politician who trailed by 2 points in round 1 but managed to hold off Flávio Bolsonaro, the former president's son.
