I feel like you can cleanly divide most millenials' lives into before and after developing a fixation on the credits montage of the SpongeBob SquarePants Movie.

Anyone know of any good alternatives to RomM? I set it up on my NAS recently thinking it'd be a good way of organizing my games/saves/BIOSes, but judging by their git repository it's quickly becoming more and more AI coded.

I don't have much to say or do around Pride Month very often but I have some idle thoughts I've been meaning to jot down. ratheronfire.com/thoughts/uno... (don't look at the clock I'm not 13 minutes late what're you talking about)

Some Thoughts About Pride Month (or, I'm Aromantic and It's All Sonic's Fault)

I decided to put down some thoughts about Pride Month, and my relation (or lack thereof) to it. And of course I end up talking about Sonic again. It's always either that or Star Trek.

I don't really think I want an Ocarina remake but if it happens at least we're sure to get a new BEATULS video for whatever new music is in it.

I feel bad for Star Fox fans for how they constantly get tossed around like this but everything about how that reveal played out was such an all-time Nintendo decision that I can't help but be delighted.

Does anyone have good pointers on re-encoding 4k Blurays? I've had some taking up hard drive space for a while and I'd like to try and trim them down if I can.

That new Mario movie is... fine, I guess. Nothing special, though I'll admit that scene where Nox Decious showed up to reveal he was behind it all and began a twenty minute lightsaber duel with Mario (whom we all know is a descendant of Merlin) was pretty sick, though.

I've been meaning to try and force myself to work on my projects a bit more proactively, so to help with that I'd like to try and make regular progress updates on here.

Because it's Trans Day Of Visibility I will celebrate by making sure my ko-fi link is visible. Just throwing it out into the wind right now. Alternatively you can watch any of my videos, I hear they're okay. ko-fi.com/ladyemilypre...

The Ranking of Sonics - Volume 3: 8-Bit Edition

This time around, I decided to take a look at some of the 8-bit entries and it only took me like a year!

Sorry guys, me and some buddies were messing around and we accidentally killed the Wall of Flesh. Yep, looks like the Crimson is already spreading to Alberta and Paris. got a pretty sick new sword though

A fun experiment: one of my characters I made for a potential show I hope to someday get off the ground, animated like a Pokemon GBC sprite! Uses only 4 colors too, though they might not actually be game boy color compatible. Still fun working within restraints! #madtaz #art #aseprite #pokemon #gen2

Seeing how much fun everyone had at GDQ and MAGFest this year makes me really want to do everything in my power to make it to at least something this/next year. Everyone's been having a great time and I want in.

For people that feel helpless, this period is so tough but there's ways to help for anyone. Go out there support Venezuelan ppl and artists living in it as they prepare for unpredictable times Here is a starter pack of artists with commissions or donations open as well: go.bsky.app/8daQmpX

It's weird, I could swear we as a society figured out the optimal UI for "logging into a webbed site" a good 30+ years ago, but lately devs keep trying to come up with new and innovative ways of making it worse.

The phrase "perfectly balanced" being associated with a Marvel villain is stolen valor from Guthix.

Our founder, Scott, would like to discuss the recent situation that happened on RetroAchievements as well as the measures we will be taking going forward to ensure a healthy, welcoming community for all enjoyers of retro games and achievements. retroachievements.org/forums/topic...

Clarifying RetroAchievements’ Goals

TL;DR RetroAchievements supports openness and celebrating retro gaming, but we will not provide a platform for games that contain illegal, hateful, or otherwise abhorrent content. Achievement sets for...

Extremely disappointing that yet another thing I care about seems to be catering towards pure, shameless hatred. Here's hoping the admins come to their senses before too much damage is done.
