One day more. The wait is almost over - CONTROL Resonant launches tomorrow. #CONTROLResonant

This aired just the once in 1998 on the live SNL show for which McKay wrote it. It was effectively banned as it never aired again. I wonder why. MEDIA-OPOLY

By the time this merger ruins HBO, destroys WB, gets 5,000 people fired, moves production overseas, and guts the quality of the movies the new studio makes, most people will have forgotten how fast the AGs caved and how little they got in this deal. Writers will not.

Paramount has reportedly reached a settlement with California and other states suing to block its proposed acquisition of Warner Bros

When a game studio ships a solid game, it creates TWO valuable products: 1. A solid game. 2. The team that spent years learning how to work together make a game. Because Western studios keep disbanding #2 while development cycles get longer; we will inevitably see less of #1.

‘Doug’ creator Jim Jinkins explains the meaning behind the characters’ different skin colors: “I wanted all skin colors to be beautiful. The Doug universe is a parallel world where it doesn’t matter what color you are—it’s who you are on the inside that matters.”

Fucking shameful to let go of such amazing talent @ign.com. @brianaltano.bsky.social writes up how much material, and basically handles half of your interviews?!?! To the leaders who allowed this, please go fuck yourself. To all others impacted, you will be truly missed.

@digitalsungames.com great sign when you purchase a game on #NintendoSwitch2, and it crashes at launch, and then again after the first level. #moonlighter2 I’ll wait for updates I guess, but definitely regretting jumping in at 1.0

I’m literally playing this game right now, and loving every damn moment of it. Would be a real shame to brake up this amazing team. 😕

For my newest video I took people's assumptions about game development and... addressed them! Including why crunch actually happens, how much money game developers make, and the unique way that making games 'ruins them' for you: youtu.be/WnfKzdTUjtw?...

I fear we have misunderstood game development

Peter Cullen’s family has confirmed that the legendary voice of Optimus Prime passed away peacefully. “His family asks that you honor his remarkable legacy by serving your communities and leading others with compassion, integrity, and loyalty and always remember, ‘be strong enough to be gentle.’”

Oh come on. Dolly and then Tim Curry? What a harsh and unforgiving week. May both their memories be a blessing.

This is why Dolly Parton will be remembered and loved ❤️📚

Every subsequent U.S. president who tries to do a modicum of good via foreign policy or trade is going to be sitting across from someone thinking yeah sure, okay, but what about the next guy. Absent political reforms, tribunals and truth and reconciliation, that credibility is gone forever.

Holy shit I despise that disgusting pig. He’s toxic sludge in human shape and I can’t wait ‘til he’s gone. Sad for anyone that’s still a believer. He and the people that surround and enable him are the worst of us. I look forward to all of them facing consequences for their actions.

23 years ago today, ‘Duck Dodgers’ premiered on Cartoon Network.

97 years ago today, ‘The Skeleton Dance’ released in theaters.

There it is. While you struggle to afford groceries, or find any that are edible, and pay thousands more every year in gas, rent, utilities, childcare, and healthcare, they are laughing all the way to the bank.

I resent AI for the time it now costs me having to check virtually everything I see online to know if it’s real or not. I’m fairly savvy about this stuff and have been fooled plenty of times. This is what destroys us, not Skynet but the slow death of objective reality. It’s only going to get worse.

On this day 15 years ago, we launched our first game, Bastion. To everyone who helped the Kid survive the Calamity, thank you!!🙏 You're the reason we've been able to carry on as an independent studio ever since.
