Newgrounds' approach to verifying age is interesting and transparent.

Brits can get around Discord's age verification thanks to Death Stranding's photo mode, bypassing the measure introduced with the UK's Online Safety Act. We tried it and it works—thanks, Kojima The UK's new act blocks access to adult content without identification. Turns out, you only need a copy of Death Stranding and a phone to get around it.

Oh my god

It’s funny they can’t use the “first Katamari game in a decade” line to sell the new game because that title got stolen by the Apple Arcade exclusive lol

Sorry but personally if a miniature horse woke me up from anesthesia by banging out nonsense on a miniature keyboard it would send me into a liminal space between life and death from which I would never return

Excerpt from a Wikipedia article about Vincent Boudreau: “During the 2024 pro-Palestinian protests, Boudreau was criticized for employing the City of New York Police Department to break up an encampment in City College of New York campus. Amidst layoffs and an expected $100 million in budget cuts, the City University of New York approved $4 million to hire 100 additional police officers.”

Excerpt of an article from The City: “Boudreau, a political scientist specializing in the politics of social movements, was arrested at least five times while pushing for the university to divest from South Africa as a grad student at Cornell University in the 1980's. He was one of hundreds of students there arrested over the course of several months in demonstrations that included sit-ins and the erection of a "shanty town" where students camped out for 65 days. “But last week he told faculty members Tuesday that he stood by the move to clear the encampment, adding that he wished he'd done so sooner. The remarks were made at a previously unreported online town hall meeting with faculty that was viewed by THE CITY. Boudreau spoke to students at a similar online town hall Wednesday afternoon, which was also observed by THE CITY. “‘Allowing the site to harden. That's my one regret,’ he said. ‘If what you're implying is that we have to allow demonstrators free run of the campus...I reject that.’”

Now that I officially got my diploma, I wanna take the time to say CCNY President Vincent Boudreau SUCKS‼️

Tweet from Sonny that says “don’t watch a 3 hour YouTube vid about colour theory just pick from this photo I’m not joking,” with the picture of Jim Henson and the muppets

This is a technique I’ve used for years because of this one tweet from @sonnyross.bsky.social. Thank you Sonny for changing my life

The book cover was designed by Talia Abramson at Penguin but they let me have a bit of a say over the colours. And I said boy do I have an idea….

if there's any OC yall want me to add to artfight please tell me asap. Just because I haven't added them yet doesn't mean I don't want art of them. In fact it more so means that my brain is so fogged rn that i forgot...

Wow thank you!
