It is truly impressive how they crafted like 3 different techniques to immediately kill a cartoon A. "it's gotta sell toys, also you're not allowed to make any" B. "new show! 6 AM on a saturday, or 2 PM on a weekday" C. "oh you wanted to tell a story? die"
I’ve only had Fortune’s Weave for a week but if this game doesn’t earn every single music award during Game Award season then we can definitively call the whole enterprise irreparably washed.
Tomorrow, Discord will place everyone into an age group using account signals. They claim 90% of users won't have to confirm their age. They are also introducing new verification methods if you do need to verify that you are an adult, including Credit Cards and App Stores.
I’d highly recommend that nobody download this app. At best, it’s unfiltered propaganda. At worst, it’s spyware.
no one is posting the best video in the world today, so ill do it myself
newsom is also the reason why you still can’t sue AI executives and companies for the harms caused by their models
Karl Bode@karlbode.com · 4d agofor your future voting knowledge, Gavin Newsom was central in pressuring the AGs to settle their antitrust lawsuit against Paramount:
This should be the final nail in the Democratic establishment’s coffin. “Centrists” like Newsom just showed their whole ass just like Ed Sheeran did; all he’s doing is helping strengthen Trump’s unpopular and collapsing regime… and Trump will still kicking Newsom while he’s grovelling.
Nick Field@nickfield.bsky.social · 4d agoThe State AGs were on pace to kill the Paramount/Warner Bros by litigation and delay until Gavin Newsom stepped in and turned the tide. Now the Trump loyalist Ellisons will control CNN and HBO. Don't ever, ever forget that Newsom stabbed us in the back www.wsj.com/business/med...
Black Adam is such a weird fucking movie. It almost has a decent message about U.S. imperialism in the Middle East being bad but it’s a movie produced by and starring The Rock so it’s not actually allowed to be about anything except for how cool The Rock is.
a lot of people act like there's a trade being offered where we give up trans athletes in sports and in exchange fascism is defeated forever
If you're a creative in any way, I'd very much recommend diversifying what mediums you're into, even if they aren't necessarily the ones you want to work in. Whether it be games, film, TV, books, graphics novels, or what have you. You never know what form your next inspiration may take!
AI hallucinated a report that a Chinese ship was transporting nuclear material to Iran and the US military scrambled and nearly boarded it. We were apparently minutes away from a major war because of an AI hallucination. www.cnn.com/2026/09/18/p...
Exclusive: US military had close call after using AI for false intelligence report, sources say | CNN Politics
The episode shows the risks of using this new, relatively poorly understood technology in the middle of the Iran war

Lots of mutuals clowning on this but I feel compelled to be That Guy and say I liked the gameplay of The Last of Us more than either modern God of War game and think that Bruce Staley is right to call that template boring when applied to literally any other game that’s not TLOU.

Zack Snyder makes it so fucking difficult not to mock him or his limited palette for comic books.

The ninth Spider-Man movie is the newly-minted highest grossing film in domestic box office history and DOOMSDAY is selling out theaters months in advance, but the guy who kneecapped DC's last attempt at this thinks the answer is a lesser Batman story that's been adapted multiple times already.

Speaking as someone who kinda liked Final Fantasy XV despite its obvious and glaring problems, there exists no greater slander for that game than being directed by Hajime Tabata.
huh lemme check out his studio's site- oh yeah that makes sense
cat! (kreepykulture)@kreepykulture.pink · last wk.there’s just no fucking way Tabata ripped off Nomura’s iconic throne sitting shot for his shitty AI dev company LMFAOOOO

My love for Kingdom Hearts does not extend to the Slop Factory Battle Royale, so no I will not be cheering for the KH x Fortnite collab.
LRP: Close enough, welcome back “Hold Boost to Win Sonic Forces video”
before any of you freak out, let this bunny remind you that fortnite has gone full AI for a while now, and the ceo of epic (tim sweeney) fired his staff for it, and has zero shame in it i stopped playing this game a very long time ago, and you can and should too. don’t give in

Show up in person if possible. Cheeto is still trying to muck with the postal service to screw up mail-in voting. Once you're in line, STAY in line, no matter what.
I have never once dragged or piled on WS before, but this is an absolutely fucked-up take. rather than considering that a marginalized group may have a very different perspective & experiences than you, smear them all as a "cult" of sorts instead. that way you can dismiss their opinions en masse
Will Stancil@whstancil.bsky.social · 2w agoever since @eleanor.lockhart.contact pointed out to me that a lot of online trans discourse has the dynamics of a high-control group, I can't stop seeing it. "you can only trust your brothers and sisters in the group" is a tried-and-true social control mechanism
yeah so we need to talk about how "screentime is bad for kids" is not really true, but "short form video on algorithm-based platforms is bad for everyone" IS true
escapedexplorer.bsky.social@escapedexplorer.bsky.social · 2w agoincredibly concerning that not one but TWO close friends, both progressive-lib-left, whom I've known for 15+ years both independently and separately said they believe Israel was behind 9/11 in the last two days the information space out there is BAD, folks. get your friends off tiktok.
Been playing A Hat in Time for the first time as of late. I do not like the Parade level.
sikhs were beat up for supposedly being muslim. muslims were branded terrorist cells. democrats were sent anthrax and called pro-terrorist for opposing invading iraq. this post-9/11 unity you always hear republicans, democrats and the media talking about NEVER HAPPENED.
I have no serious interest in the Wolverine game tbh, so my only input on the current discourse is that I think PlayStation should stop trying to make every new game they make into God of War: Ragnarok. Even Santa Monica learned that lesson.
welcome to 2020s tech. we got - pervert glasses - wiretap - wiretap - wiretap - wiretap - the button that does nothing - we outta ram - we outta hard drives - we outta graphics cards - ten trillion vibe coded apps that nobody uses - wiretap
