hi I'm dot!!! and uhmmmmmmm I like transformers and crash bandicoot and doom and pokemon and mario and sonic and SOAD and burgers mmmm beef burger,,,, oh also I'm a neurodivergent dog-gender transfem whose pronouns are She/It Pup/Pups

if i wrote for the onion i'd write a headline that was like "Breaking News: The president is an orange!" and then you'd click it and the article would be like "An orange-haired no-good crook, that is!" that might seem a little mean-spirited but the way i see it, i'd get a click and you'd get a laugh

I'd like to reword the phrase "conservatives aren't that funny" to something like "going up on a stage and talking about politics instead of doing fucking comedy, the thing people paid for, isn't funny" because like, while this is more commonly a conservative issue, it also happens with leftists.

I see a lot of the sentiment of "if you don't like it don't watch/read/play/ complain about it" and I just can't help but think... why not? What if I want to do that? What if U enjoy not liking something? Is that so bad? As long as ur not putting down other people for liking something, who cares?

for a while I've believed that evil doesn't exist but after hearing the way the coalition celebrated the passing of a bill that will destroy the lives of 10s of 1000s of people, I've decided evil does exist.

I've been working on this for over a year: I'm remaking all of Ocarina of Time's prerenders in 3D, trying to match the N64 style rather than the 3DS one. The provisional name is OoT unJPEG. It will be distributed as both a romhack that runs on real N64 hardware and a mod for Zelda 64 Recompiled.

thinking about it in hindsight, the "let that sink in" joke elon made when he bought twitter was, on paper, a top tier joke. It's interesting how jokes that SHOULD work on paper can be just completely fucking butchered when done by the wrong people.

I know I've been posting a lot about Nintendo and I'll stop soon but it just really infuriates me the way people are so willing to undermine the amount of horrible shit Nintendo has done for the industry just because they manage to do like 1 or 2 things right. They don't deserve a pass.

they are ahead actually, they raised prices before the others, they took away your physical games before the others, they took away your console ownership before the others. nothing about the switch 2 is consumer friendly but they were quieter about it so it slipped under gamer radar

It's important to point out that nintendo is at LEAST 5 years behind the rest of the industry. give them time and they'll pull off the same shit too but you'd be too busy going "hey look new Zelda" or the like.

can we not glaze the shit out of nintendo, pretending like they haven't at all contributed to many of the issues with modern gaming? For fuck's sake. I saw someone respond to someone saying Nintendo is also bad with "you're too into the discourse" and it made my blood boil

Yknow, if gaming just fuckin... stopped here and there was no more generations and we just focussed on updating the stuff we have now I'd be pretty fuckin happy. Like, maybe let nintendo get 1 more console generation in so they can catch up technoloigcally speaking, but otherwise we're good

Seen a lot of takes about playing games you don't like and how you should just "stop playing it" and I don't really have much of counterargument other than the fact I think it's boring to not play games I dislike every now and then. Let people complain about games they dislike, it's fine.
