When the AI bubble finally bursts, I'm going to raise my editing and writing rates to triple digits per hour out of pure spite. Coulda hired me before, but you wanted to be a water-poisoning plagiarist instead ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Five corporations control 90% of the US media market.

Airlines merged from 12 major carriers in 1980 to 4 today.

Four giants control 80% of meat processing.

The evidence of corporate consolidation is everywhere.

It means more power for them and less freedom for you.

It’s a good thing I really don’t use YouTube for “Nintendo” stuff anymore because so much of the discourse is SO FUCKING TOXIC/NEGATIVE.

I’ve got my stints with Nintendo even as a fan, but some people act like Nintendo is committing the Rumbling and the Ghorman Massacre through one Mario Kart game.

Congrats on the accomplishment well deserved

Thanks everyone for following me and watching my videos!!

I can't express the gratitude that I have for everyone I've interacted with who have interacted with me back, supported me, and given me the opportunities to play the games that I love and find new ones to introduce to y'all! (>᎑<๑)/♡

why is *anybody* buying Warner Bros
why does Warner Bros need to be bought
how big do the entertainment conglomerates need to get before they are one single conglomerate

UPDATE:
Ashley has let me know that Gladio has been in contact with 2 immigration attorneys that are helping him. He has finally been given his seizure medication per lawyer request. Ashley attempted to appeal her suspension, but was denied. Bluesky is now completely ignoring her messages and emails

The grandfather clock struck twelve in the dead of night, and its chimes echoed throughout the castle. An eerie feeling flows throughout, along with another, the air seemed to vibrate with an otherworldly energy. As Harley awoke at the last strike of the clock, she looked around carefully, but within her ears, she heard this beautiful sound. It almost sounded like a flute being played within her ears, as she searched for where this sound could be coming from. She turned her body from the bed, pressing her feet against the stone cold floor, sending a shiver down her spine. Finally, she got up and headed outside, making her way across the castle grounds. Once outside, she was again introduced to the glistening snowy fields, which shone like twinkling stars within the night sky. Wearing only her nightgown, she put her feet into the snow, the crunching of the snow under her feet making her smile, but also sending goosebumps all over her body. But there it was again! That sound! It seemed to be coming from the forest that was just past these fields of snow. At first, Harley was hesitant, who would be up at such a hour playing a flute in the middle of the dark forest? But curiosity won her over, and she decided to investigate. As she began to make her way through the crunching snow, she felt her senses heighten. As she made it to the edge of the dark forest, she squinted her eyes in the darkness, but something appeared, a campfire made with sticks and stones, the fire crackled softly, small and flickering in the darkness. In the fire’s warm glow, she saw a silhouette of a man sitting there on a log.

"Eurovision must not be political" they literally banned Russia for the same shit but I**ael gets off scot-free cuz the contestants suck off whoever they can to keep going

That's how Toy won in 2018 and how they got 5th in 2024 despite getting into multiple physical altercations with others people

My games critic hot take (and it is a hot take) is that games absolutely can be both art and toys. The idea of "play" is what makes games so special compared to other mediums.

The job of the critic (and players in general, although that's a tough bar to clear) is to balance these two things.

THREE HOUSES AT #8 BIG DAY FOR ANNOYING PEOPLE (ME)

We literally had a a discussion months ago why censoring games is bad do we need a discussion again.

Abolish ICE. Abolish it so that it may never re-form.

If anyone has any resources to help, please send them to Ballin (such as on the replies of the original post) so they can reach Ashley

@safety.bsky.app @aaron.bsky.team banned a woman immediately after her husband was kidnapped by ICE pass it on

Bluesky hitting her with an instant suspension is chilling

Horrible horrible situation
