Marathon is "Graphic Design is my Passion" The Game (complimentary)

right after this letter went out Paramount announced Max Landis doing a GI Joe movie

No more animation landlords The recent (re)announcement of Warner Bros. acquisition is but one representation of how corporate higher ups have made poor custodians for the art.

Listen closely to @kambole.bsky.social: no more animation landlords.

All I want for my birthday is for everyone who sees this to buy #TheMangaBible or borrow it from their local library. If you buy it from an indie bookstore or bookshop.org that's even better because it shares the love even further.

happy birthday Helen!! hope you’re having a great day

I am so tired of hearing about shareholders

I’m having a great time

also while there’s the threat of losing stuff, you pick things up just as quickly, my vault has been overflowed for the last 3 runs

just had a run go IMMEDIATELY sideways because we got jumped by the bots on the map and then more when one teammate activated an objective lol

took all health kits to survive, was a very tense run from then on (we got some reason played out the time limit after that, got out in extra time)

spooky green AI face, named ONI

another menu. refracted image of “Rook”, one of the Runner Shells in Marathon

map of Perimeter, one of the levels

ONI, speaking at the start of a match: “Engaging affirmation protocol… Assert: You are a winner. Assert: You can do it.”

MARATHON is actually so sick, presentation going a long way but combat feels *great*, very tense without the player encounters feeling offputting, the PvE stuff is surprisingly challenging too

not accepting election losses, casting non-white votes as illegitimate, are defining features of trumpian fascism

this rules, also that Matt Goodwin cunt can go kick rocks!!

we should team up!!

none of this was ever going to be good, but certainly this is categorically the greater of two evils

ah jeez

strangely appropriate reality game show tie-in now that I think about it (hell yeah I’ll DM in a bit)

me and @thesaintoftous.bsky.social are accepting applications for a MARATHON teammate for the free preview starting today

(no references required, just help us not get steamrolled by extraction shooter experts)

deleting those last posts because I don’t feel like starting shit and I have work to do

The Moment review – it's not that easy being green Charli XCX stars as a fictionalised version of herself in Aidan Zamiri's debut, telling the mostly, sort of, kind of true story of 2024's brat summer.

Forgot to share my review of the moment but i think my subhead deserves recognition lwlies.com/reviews/the-...

excellent work

Evangelion, like all source material, is untouchable A new Neon Genesis Evangelion is fine and dandy, no matter the outcome.

Bit late to sharing this one as I caught a nasty bug and have been stuck in bed, but: Evangelion is going to be just fine.
