All sport needs heels. That's why football has Chelsea players.

We're putting the paywall on a handful of Jank posts so we're celebrating with a week of articles about walls which includes reviewing 2008 movie tie-in game Wall-E
Jank@jank.cool · 4w agoHere's the Wall-e review you've all been wanting. www.jank.cool/wall-e-revie...
The worst thing a Spurs player has done since the last time Spurs played.
I love football. I love caring about things that don't matter at all so much.
Remember the internet before Google, before algorithmic feeds, before monolithic social media corralled us onto the same handful of apps? When small, *personal websites* and webrings linking them together reigned supreme? Time to bring it back.

Baffling to me that people think Nintendo are playing it too safe, as if Bananza, Kirby Air Riders, Tomodachi Life, Yoshi And The Mysterious Book aren't all deeply strange games or unexpected sequels. Even Pokopia takes a beloved series into an entirely new genre. The Switch 2 is only a year old.

There's no article on Jank today because I instead made a supercut of every time Gary Neville says "at this moment in time" on his podcast. Sorry www.youtube.com/watch?v=rjBc...

GOLD TEETH has launched! It's a piratical TTRPG set in a cursed version of the Age of Sail, with 350 pages of briny phantasmagoria, colonial terror and nauseating seafood. It's part Master & Commander, part Blackadder, left to ripen in the sun like a beached porpoise. teethrpg.itch.io/gold-teeth
