I went all in on vertex color and gradients - It's a nice way to add depth to pixel art/low poly without it feeling too modern!

What do you think?

Screengrab from a 2021 Slate article headlined An Interview with the Guy Who Yells Mortal Kombat in the the Theme for Mortal Kombat. The subheading is Nearly three decades later he's still got it. The byline is Matthew Dessem. The featured text is the form of a Q and A. I see. Will you do it over the phone? Would I do it over the phone? Absolutely. Let's hear it. Mortal Kombat!

Bring back proper games journalism.

This is an edited 3-panel Calvin and Hobbes comic strip. The first panel is a somewhat narrow rectangle. It contains Calvin's dad, sitting on a spotted living room chair (upholstered) near a desk lamp (the kind with a lampshade over the bulb, not the kind that can be adjusted thanks to hinges). Calvin's dad has a book in his hand, but his attention has shifted to look at Calvin. Calvin is walking past, but his head is facing his dad. Above his head is a textbox that reads, "Oh, just so you know..." The second panel is a wider rectangle, with plenty of empty space. In the right-hand corner, Calvin appears from the waist up, pointing towards one of his fingers with his eyes close, as if counting or smugly making a point. Calvin's dialouge in this panel appears in a boundless speechbox- meaning, there is a single short line indicating speech, rather than a rounded container connecting to a line. Near the upper left is the text "I am" and lower down, is the text "all of me" (no punctuation.) The next panel is depicts Calvin's dad leaning over in his chair with an expression of shock, mouth agape and eyebrow raised. To his right, where calvin previously stood, is a full-color picture of Shadow The Hedgehog from the Sonic The Hedgehog. Shadow's body faces away from the camera, but he has turned slightly over his left shoulder to look in that direction, with his fist near his face (and Calvin's dad's nose). He has a look of mild annoyance or anger. The picture of Shadow extends past the borders of the image and the panel.

Pilotwings Resort states that guests are only allowed to drive electric vehicles on Wuhu Island. Earlier in the series, in Wii Sports Resort, this was phrased as "only electric vehicles are allowed on the island". However, in Mario Kart 7, Mario Kart races take place on the island where the racers all use gas vehicles. This suggests that Mario gained special pollution privileges for his Mario Kart activities.

In the Wii series games, Wuhu Island is committed to clean air by only allowing electric vehicles. However, in Mario Kart 7, gas vehicles are used in the races. This implies that Mario made a deal with the Wuhu Island administration to receive exclusive pollution privileges.

"Over the past two decades, the free-to-use online encyclopedia has carried on with its mission, expanding its global community of volunteer editors, known as Wikipedians, and ultimately resisting the kinds of platform decay that have claimed other 2000s-era internet phenoms." Quote by Allison Morrow, via CNN Business.

"In a minefield of glitchy AI search and social media, Wikipedia becomes one of the most reliable places on the internet"
