Schmoolecka, Pre-Fall Release

📌

YouTube video by Trevor Treefort Immediately humbled. Pantheon 5 reaction. #shorts #hollowknight

In honor of the impending Silksong release (Sept. 4th!) here is one of my favorite Hollow Knight clips (very loud!). Always remember: once a fool, forever a fool:

Investigation into 'horrifying' death of French streamer Raphaël Graven, also known as Jeanpormanove, was found dead at a residence in Contes, a village north of Nice, prosecutors said.

Periodic reminder that the streaming platform Kick is a hellhole with virtually no TOS and age restrictions that are easily circumvented. It is funded by Stake, an unregulated crypto gambling casino that uses it as a front to hook young people on gambling.

Lies of P DLC kicked my ass, but it was well worth it. Final boss is one of the toughest I have ever faced, but it’s a blast. Regular enemies were doing massive damage, but have now been nerfed. Going for my 3rd run though this week, this time on a new save file 😀

The summer is fun because I just kind of wake up whenever my poor, overworked air conditioner can’t keep up the temperature down below 78 degrees. The post-apocalypse will not be kind to me, please kill me quickly and make good use of my carcass.

Seeing Zohran win tonight is the first time I have felt hopeful about American politics in months. Establishment Dems should take heed; lead with populist ideals - stop running scared towards the center

The Hollow Knight Silksong trailer at the Nintendo Direct today may have only been 6 seconds, but 120k redditors will be less of a menace to society for one whole day.

No Silksong announcement, but at least we get a release date on this!

Yep. There’s a reason why the Narcissist’s Prayer is my pinned post

How are you calculating the price, exactly

I really do love my cats, but some days I want to turn them into a pretty hat or gloves. They never bite or scratch, but today one of them literally bat a chicken finger out of my hand and ran away with it. The other has been stalking and jumping on me all day so she can rub her face on my face 😭

Haven’t quite figured out how to be funny or poignant in our current maelstrom of horrifying news

Remembering a comedian who used to get high off drinking her piss while addicted meth. Don’t do meth, kids

The image displays a scene from a video game, portraying an observatory named "VALIS OBSERVATORY." A blue door with frosted glass panes appears on the left, set into a red brick wall that extends to the center of the image. The observatory's name is embossed in raised lettering on the brick wall. To the right, a decorative wrought iron gate blocks the entrance to the observatory. The gate is flanked by brick pillars, one of which has a large "V" logo. Beyond the gate, the observatory features a prominent dome with a blue roof, situated atop a building nestled in lush greenery. The sky is clear and bright, suggesting a sunny day. The image is taken from a perspective near ground level, looking up towards the entrance.

The image is a wide-angle shot of a country road from a video game, shown on a monitor. The road curves to the right, with white dashed lines marking the lanes and a solid white line along the edges. A wooden fence runs parallel to the road on the left, separating it from a grassy field with tall trees. The trees have thick trunks and lush green canopies, suggesting a well-established grove. The terrain gently rises to the right of the road, where more greenery and flowering shrubs are visible. The sky is clear with a few clouds, casting a bright and sunny ambiance over the scene. The image is framed by the monitor's bezels at the edges, with the brand "SCEPTRE" visible at the bottom center.

The image depicts a sunny playground scene within a video game, as shown on a monitor. In the foreground, there's a colorful children's bicycle with blue wheels, a yellow frame, and red handlebars leaning against a red swing set with swings missing. To the left of the swing set, there's a red slide. The playground is set on a grassy area with a soccer ball lying on the ground. In the background, there are residential buildings, a white house with a blue roof to the left, and brick houses to the right. A sign reading "ROBERT GRAHAM Auto Repair" is visible beside the houses. The sky is blue with sparse clouds, and the scene is framed by the monitor's edges with the "SCEPTRE" brand visible at the bottom center.

Just started playing "Everybody's gone to rapture" - and it's gorgeous. Can't believe the game is over 8 years old.

Under settings -> accessibility you can choose “require alt text before posting”. Super helpful!

The US economy is heading into recession.

At this point everybody's baseline assumption should be that the US is headed into a medium-nasty recession, with risk to the downside.

You don't even need to be good at math or economics to see it:

GDP = C + I + G + (X-M).

Mini thread:

*Malenia, how sad that an awesome boss has a name so close to our most milquetoast First Lady

Completely stupefying. All else aside, good luck “getting out of elite circles” while also “moving away from the dominance of small dollar donations.” Absolute clowns.

Mike Myers as Elon Musk limply holding a chainsaw behind SNL cast members playing Trump and Zelenskyy respectively. Elon has an expression as though he has forgotten who he is and/or recently shit his pants.

Better put the gun away, Zed

Is there a way to put the sleeping beauty curse in a chocolate truffle? (And just skip the whole rape part, obvi) Will sign up for the medical trial, please pass along
