SailorSoapbox 💙@sailorsoapbox.com · 2h agoI got shown one of those “10 Anime Titles For People Who Don’t Like Anime” lists (it was bad), which led @battlehork.bsky.social & I to discuss the opposite intention of those lists. What is the worst possible anime to show to someone who’s never watched anime before? I’m going with Elfen Lied.
I'll never get tired of posting this photo of the Christian Universal Ministry basketball team in 1980...
It's genuinely fucked that I spent three hours arguing with Amazon to unsuccessfully get AHmag listed on their storefront, while garbage like this gets through with zero issues.
Indie Book Spotlight@bookspotlight.bsky.social · 14h agoThis is just so depressing to see. Readers deserve better than this.
tech ceos love to talk like it's impossible to know what the computer will do at any given time as if that's smart and powerful and amazing. the determinism was like, the best part of the computer though. removing the determinism is the opposite of smart. it's stupid

I'm sorry, I was looking for a restaurant for morally ambiguous people.

Mayor Zohran Kwame Mamdani@mayor.nyc.gov · 22h agoIf it looks like an Amazon delivery and drives like an Amazon delivery, then it's an Amazon delivery, right? Not according to Amazon. Big companies like Amazon have built a vast network of subcontractors who deliver their packages while shielding them from accountability.
The Daily Fail had <medication> <body part> on today’s Mad Libs
lol, Toronto Star actually published a highly propagandistic reader’s letter from the Shen Yun people Y’all know you don’t have to show “all” sides of the story when one side is blatantly lying, right?
Like 1 out of every 5 dudes in America need the bumpersticker.
The entire Hot Take economy is people who would have passed their lives in comfortable near-anonymity as columnists for a regional newspaper or some third-rate national magazine in the past, but now those jobs do not exist so they cook their brains to generate a middle-class income on Substack.
mtsw@mtsw.bsky.social · yesterdaytempted to come up with some elaborate theory about sunscreen denialism, but I genuinely think it's mostly a case of the increasing salience being stupid has in our political divide
The modern conservative hates winning more than losing. There are no games journalists left, all the devs have been fired and everyone in a position of influence is terrified of offending reactionaries. They got what they asked for, and they still hate it! Because a woman said a thing!

Guess it's not Embracer Group or constant massive waves of layoffs or endless monetization or Bobby Kotick or Randy Pitchford or overpriced PC components due to crypto and then AI or rootkit anti-cheats or lack of optimization in high end AAA games or games being shut down with no other way to play

I lost my job, my kids have measles, I can’t afford gas, I can’t breathe, and I can’t eat lettuce or strawberries without getting explosive diarrhea. But at least now schools are forbidden from celebrating Black History Month.
this guy said i can say the c word now. but i will not say it !!!!!!!!!!
Staying sane by looking up pictures of dachshunds whose owners have slipped a wooden spoon across their harness to keep them from escaping through gaps in the fence.
I went to go pick up sushi at my local sushi place, went to go use the bathroom and...that is definitely Castlevania music playing in the bathroom
Awkward moment in the Brazilian top flight: Coritiba player falls into a tunnel celebrating against Chapecoense, only for the goal to be ruled out for offside
'Death Crimson' released on this day in 1996. In 1996, a perfect storm occurred on the Sega Saturn; given an amateur developer, an incomprehensible creative vision, and limited means. All hail the "Emperor of Kusogē" -- the rail shooter which spawned a dedicated cult following.
