Pretty sure when you win the election it's a big election night. Pretty sure when your party's leadership all endorses the loser, it means the leadership is out of touch with the electorate.

Just about every CEO ever at EA, historically speaking, has been an awful piece of shit human being that the world would have been better off without.

I have, with my own eyes, watched my tax dollars in the form of missiles as they hit buildings inhabited by civilians. I'd much prefer subsidizing a grocery story I don't use.
USA TODAY Opinion@usatodayopinion.usatoday.com · 2d agoOpinion: Mamdani's idea may sound appealing, but it's NYC taxpayers who will take the hit, subsidizing discounts they may never even use.
i don't mean this pejoratively to anyone's who's upset at shiftup for this but how is anyone, like, surprised that they're promoting stellar blade 2 with AI slop? not everyone knows the company's founder has been crazy AI-pilled for a while, but that game has always looked like 'that' to me idk
not weird at all, that’s how you make supafrienz

psa: there is a distinct difference between beat ‘em ups and fighting games. fighting games require direct head-to-head combat between players, whereas a beat ‘em up involves kicking the shit out of waves of minions across multiple stages.
Pet Shop Girls@phoeberobo.bsky.social · yesterdaysay fighting games instead of the childish beat-em-up. You are an adult
so like i do agree it's a classic but they were right when it came out, the MVC2 OST makes no sense, stylistically.
That’s gonna be tough if the wrong branch of democrats keep getting the votes. Because we already saw what “held accountable” looks like to them. It’s why a certain someone is in charge instead of in prison.
@ruthkub.bsky.social · 2d agoClearly his staff is complicit in this fraud. They all need to be held accountable when Dems have the power to do so.
The fact that this shit is being done to stop a special election from taking place in Kentucky should absolutely be treated as an act of direct malicious interference with the highest echelon functions of the federal government. Every person connected to this farce should be tried for treason.
Christopher Webb@cwebbonline.com · 2d agoMitch McConnell’s communications director’s silence and smirk speak volumes. If he were fine, or even improving, she’d just say so. There’s no way this man is coming back.
Sometimes you gotta go visit Tekken 7 - Infinite Azure just to feel something
After halo infinite, bioshock infinite, and marvel vs Capcom infinite all were mismanaged sequels that heralded the collapse of their franchises im pretty sure that using that subtitle is the game industries low key version of 'directed by Alan Smithee'
I knew I’d get blocked, so here’s the full context: - Someone posts about fighting game on conversation based social media - My feed quite literally feeds me fighting game conversations - I replied with relevant, factual info - Weirdness ensues - It wasn’t me being weird
Yeet Kune Do@yeetkunedo.bsky.social · 2d agoYou have tools that stop people you don’t know from interacting with you, which you absolutely have the right to use, but it does beg the question of why you’re on a platform explicitly designed for people to start, find and participate in conversations centered upon mutual interests at all.
I don’t know who all needs to hear this, but if you’re spending time posting on a social media platform that’s explicitly designed for people to start, find and participate in conversations centered upon mutual interests, then you lose any and all right to complain when the public engages with you.
This is also not the first time he does this; years ago, he was hired to make a "Capcom vs SNK"-styled Kain R. Heinlein sheet and went ahead and made off with that money as well. I had to unblock the fucker to get a screenshot of his BlueSky profile, but he's here as well.
A friend of mine got scammed, recently. 750$ gone with nothing in return. The scammer in-question is RamzaNeko, or Gilson Nalesso. Please spread this around as this person dead-ass DOES NOT deserve your hard-earned money.

I won with a 70, & am so honored in that, unlike the rest of the field, I’m given very little time to practice, bc I’m focused on many other things. It’s called TALENT, and I have it”

There’s a million reasons not to trust this campaign. This is just one.

As someone who ran a third space for people that wanted to play together, it took a scattered spread of like-minded individuals and wound up building a fairly large community of very tight-knit friends who still speak to each other on a near daily basis.
