I love games and so many of the people who make them. It was an honor to accept the award on behalf of the team and a privilege to be able to speak to what I believe in. ♥️

A promotional still for "Bridgerton: The Official Podcast" on Netflix featuring Allison Hammond in front a backdrop of the Bridgerton house, with SM7B microphone on a boom arm photoshopped in front of her but visibly out of scale, perhaps about half the size it should be

I know there's a lot of feelings around Bridgerton but clearly the worst part of all is this terrible photoshop job, SM7B mics are SO much bigger than that

Hey.

Tell people when they do good job.

When you like the stuff they make.

When you like the characters they’ve created.

The stories they’ve told.

Nobody hears it as often as you think bc everyone thinks everyone hears it all the time.

Trust. They don’t.

Tell. Them.

Lines of academy cadets, one in command red seated but at attention while in a wheelchair.

I have a friend who said, of Starfleet Academy, that this took them out of it - that seeing a person in a wheelchair in the 32nd century seemed unrealistic, since medicine in Star Trek "should be able to cure whatever was wrong with them."

That's not the case, for any number of possible reasons.

CONGRATULATIONS!!!!!

It could be really bad for Discord if Californians contact the office of the Attorney General to report the potential violations of CCPA and CALOPPA citing the recent breach from a few months back where 1.5tb of user data and millions of IDs were leaked, but who can say for sure?

Next time somebody tries to get me to justify the existence of the humanities, I’ll just point out how for the past two Super Bowls we’ve all jumped online and engaged in collective semiotics and hermeneutics of the half-time show as text.

You're laughing? The team that lends their plane for deportation flights and whose owner is best pals with Trump got utterly humiliated in front of a hundred million viewers, and you're laughing?

Sunny beat me to the very next statement I was going to make.

The whole performance wasn’t about the triumph of the individual, but the collective effort and joy that that elevates all of us out of oppression.

They literally danced their way through and out of the history of colonialism TOGETHER.

honestly respect for the ad that’s just like “pokemon are cool.” they are cool

Bro literally came out and said “it’s our labor and culture that has always made the Americas great: y’all are just the beneficiaries of slave owners from sea to shining sea,” and I am here for it.

[P] Bad Bunny's halftime show featured farmers, a pickup truck, people drinking and having a party, fireworks, the American flag and him saying "God bless America."

Good thing country music fans had the TPUSA show so that they could see anything they could relate to.

“Ring uses AI to help find lost dogs” yup it probably stops there, sounds fine

age the actors back up.

OK "god bless america" and then naming every country in the americas from south to north is absolute king shit

So many cool things about halftime show but the detail that’s sticking to me is how defiant it was to be joyful.

Bad Bunny “together we are America”

Super Bowl confirming what i always knew in my heart: the kicker is the most important guy on the field

Bad Bunny did a variation of the Spike Lee double dolly shot live so you’re now legally required to give this a five star on Letterboxd!!!!

So far, the toilet commercial wins for me. "Take a look at your pee" to the tune of "Take a look at me now"? Singing toilets of all kinds? No notes

Dookie is over THIRTY YEARS OLD, you've had time to catch up

Sorry, Green Day did "Holiday" and someone said they weren't being political?! Please, no, I will hurt myself laughing this hard

At least they kinda failed at censoring the "fuck America" lyric during Green Day

That was all Sarah, I'll never be as funny as she is

Yup. This is also why I get annoyed when people start suggesting "golden age" science fiction titles to people who are new the genre and are asking for suggestions. You want to turn a modern 15-year-old off science fiction forever, recommend stories that were old when her grandparents were her age.

I will also say, in a genre with a higher than average chance of parasocial connection to performers, I can see why people would be hesitant to participate beyond just purity culture as well

“Did they grow up under a rock??”

Yes. And the rock was probably put there on purpose by men who wanted uneducated people to control.

This is why we don’t leave any state or county or town behind. Nobody deserves to grow up under a rock. Especially one they would never have the power to move.
