Rachel, Kairi's Strongest Soldier

there is no emotion quite like a person in a mmo jumping up and down

A third of the way through the Anachronox demo, the player encounters a hulking alien merchant. “My sorrow runs deep,” the merchant, whose name is Demonstrare, says. “I will only exist for the short duration of this demo. I do not exist in the full version. “Write the company. Tell them that you want me in the full version.” What Demonstrare, even with his curse of self-awareness, did not anticipate was that if anyone did ask Ion Storm to bring him over to “the full version,” it wouldn’t have mattered. The demo shipped on a disc stuck to the cover of a PC Gamer — where it shared space with now-forgotten

titles like Throne of Darkness and The Corporate Machine — four months after Anachronox itself had been released, and three months after Ion Storm’s parent company had shut down the studio. Demonstrare never made it to Anachronox. And while twenty-five years later the game can run on modern hardware, the demo does not. Demonstrare is gone. Recently, I asked Richard Gaubert, the writer of Anachronox, if the developers ever heard anything about Demonstrare. Gaubert didn’t even remember the character.

Here is a little bit of @duncanfyfe.net's afterword for "How Can We Bear to Throw Anything Away?"

Anyways.

Maybe we should not all be forced to build games that require servers

Aka a shit ton of people cancelled their Nitro's (imagine paying for discord lmao) and it tanked their perceived value right before IPO

If you cancelled your Nitro, proud of you, don't resubscribe. If you still have Nitro (why?), still cancel it.

if i must tear this wretched world down, i shall

Really want to thank @nbcwashington.com for covering Ludovic's story! We are working tirelessly to bring him home and make sure he sees justice! #FreeLud

Please keep sharing and contacting your representatives during this extremely crucial time for his case!

When Terry Pratchett died it struck me that our door to the world inside his mind was forever closed. Other people could write Discworld books of course, but they would be their own interpretation - not bad but inherently different. I realised each human mind is a unique, limited resource

Labour is what happens when the nominally "center-left" party stands for absolutely nothing and just shifts more and more to the right in a foolish attempt to woo voters to their right: a massively unpopular party that's going to get absolutely crushed... and right-wing policies.

many people have recommended edward said's work which ofc is vital to understanding orientalism but id also like to recommend the colonial harem by malek alloula, which focuses more specifically on how orientalism effects women and this very sexual image of racialized women that keeps cropping up

If anyone needs video editing / photo / etc done hit me up. I’m now officially looking for work again since my last job actually let me go because of my medical bs.

read a very good thread last night about black music and it's integration into japanese city pop and influence in shinjuku fashion and clubs. very cool. mariah carey and whitney houston were some of the most popular artists in japan of all time during the early eras of clubbing and such.
