"guarding the secrets of the unique [GTA] gameplay and design" is a phrase thst will live in comedic infamy in my mind for quite some time

Lily Wachowski is so cool. Most celebrities use high profile interviews to be like "it was such a pleasure to work with so and so on such and such" and she's like "JK Rowling funds trans genocide and Elon Musk is a fascist misrepresenting my work to destroy the planet" Let her make more movies.

Laughing with my buddy about how the new heroes of the storm content is CAD $27+tax for 1 hero + 2 skins + 1 mount That's just too high, especially for a game that hasn't had a content update in 4 years and that there's no promises (let alone a guarantee) of more content. jesus

Lots of cool announcements from blizzcon (new hots character!), but hard to have any faith in any xbox studios announcements given all the constant firings and downsizings to make room for microsoft's budget in AI + Israel support

9/11/2001 I was a freshman in high school in Alabama, I wore a hijab. In gym class my teacher wheeled in a screen. Something horrible was happening. I watched, mouth agape as the second tower hit. We were silent. As that period reached an end, my name was announced on the loud speaker. 1/

Once again thinking about the people who got SUPER pissed at the optional girl heads for a warhammer army in a model kit rerelease that was 6 months from then Still bewildering tbh

9/11 has got to be the number 1 single most successful attack in all of human history. totally destroyed the psyche of the worlds most powerful empire and 2 decades later it throws away its own hegemony desperately clawing to regain the confidence it lost
