tfw ben casually asks you to join a stream and you log on only to realize you have to compete against two soulslike buffs 💀

MinnMax’s @yozetty.bsky.social and @jacobgeller.com are joined by special guest @pokachee.bsky.social and soulslike expert @ironpineapple.bsky.social in this one of a kind multiplayer mayhem game called Machine Party. New Show Plus is now available on YouTube. youtu.be/nG-SwauCVg4

Big Walk is a great game because it perfectly recreated that feeling of being in a large friend group IRL where certain people just walk ahead and take off without saying anything and then there are the stragglers who move at a slower pace who are like, "Why do they always do this?"

We're live on Twitch playing Machine Party for New Show Plus! It's like Mario Party... but TWISTED! www.twitch.tv/minnmaxshow

In concert with anime industry interviews feeling like access journalism to publications that don't play ball, the ins and outs of requests asked of journalists breathing rarefied air with creatives feel more like stringent PR than actual journalism.

The thing about being a permalancer is your life is a series of side quests and I would like to get back to the main quest for sake of consistency but also you experience some of the most interesting characters and stories when you’re running around doing a bunch of random stuff.

it's wild that i can just work and do my little tasks all day and i can do them with a cat in my lap. life is truly so wonderful and magical at times.

Somewhere along the line, I developed this idea that having a crush is bad. I don’t really know where it came from but it’s almost certainly has sexist origins and it’s a way to put down teen girls (and adults too because let’s be honest people don’t stop crushing just because they get older).

It happened to me: I didn't write down an angle for a pitch and I forgot and now I can't remember the framing I had in mind for the life of me.

I just so happen to be in Chicago so I'll be swinging by the meetup. Come through for some beer and buds and plenty of nerdy video game fun. 🧡💙

each time someone says yes to playing league with me an angel gets their wings😇

the scope of these layoffs feels so overwhelming—that's 1,600 people whose lives are instantly changed and thrown into chaos. i think about how getting laid off impacted my life, then times that by 1,600... it's hard to comprehend.

Strange Scaffold's Oopsie-Daisy Drive-By Anime Game Has Me Rethinking My Isekai Ick

'Truck-kun Is Supporting Me From Another World?!' puts you behind the wheel of a kei truck with the power to isekai anything it wraps around its bumper—and it's as fun as it sounds.

this is true always but specifically for gta vi: sites that don’t actively pick a diverse writers pool to cover it are in for a generational fumble

unfortunately i do want to write about GTA VI

This is how neocolonialism works btw. The US will stop at nothing to completely destroy Cuba without needing to step foot on the island.

The process of moving into a new place this month and rebuilding my life as a person living solo for the first time in over a decade has been expensive and hard. If you've been thinking about picking up any of my games, this would be a great time to go for it. store.buriedwithoutceremony.com

Buried Without Ceremony

My name is Avery Alder, and for the past eighteen years I’ve been designing tabletop roleplaying games. These are games about community, relationships, doubt, queerness, and the collapse of civilizati...

Gamers would rather spend $1100+ than buy a stupidly long HDMI cable

PC gaming has become expensive but I'm also interested in the ways people are dealing with the rise in prices. I have two friends getting married and instead of a traditional wedding registry, they're asking their guests to buy different PC parts for them to rebuild their computers.

every time i see people taking the stairs in FF7 Remake I wonder how many people never even see some of Barret's best lines in the game because they're exclusive to the elevator route

happy juneteenth. give your money to black people today.

i feel sad when i see a podcast clip and only see white hosts. i also get sad when i see an all white (or majority white) masthead. when you are a marginalized person you see these things all the time and it isn't something you ever get a "break" from. i dont think i will ever get used to it.

i remain proud to have @mothership.blog alongside two extraordinary feminist publications, @theflytrapmedia.com and @autonomynews.co, as part of a VEEERYYYY good 50% off deal on a 90-day subscription! if you already support mothership, just use your subscriber email & we'll be taken off the bill~

I love only playing two video games and playing them a lot

my main hobbies these days include sending my friends podcast-length voice notes of my uninterrupted stream of thoughts and meeting neighbors through a local knitting group
