I feel like younger people don't realize that the internet wasn't always optimized solely to make you as angry and miserable as possible, and people are having a lot of nostalgia for 2000s internet vibes now because it wasn't like that back then

In Death Stranding 2, the Magellan is a vessel for the most dangerous waters of an uncertain "doomed" future. It is powered by the incredible bonds of those who inhabit it to be able to survive even darkness with their improvised tools

Such a vision is why I started @crowhop.dev with @slimekat.com

been making games for over a decade, got burned by the investment pullback and laid off for the first time

the only way forward for me right now, has been back to basics

so i started @crowhop.dev with a friend, focusing on our talents and what we want to make, with jack shit money

two old chinese guys, one very old, one smoking a cigarette and one extending a cigarette to the viewer. from a viral tweet that said the ancestors are going to need you to lock in son.

the energy with which i am wishing you all a happy new year

A scene from The Princess Bride in which the doddering King is so dazzled by Buttercup's kiss he doesn't realize what she has actually said.

I've seen The Princess Bride over a dozen times throughout my life and every time I see it again I discover something new that I love or another joke that permanently lodges in my brain

😂😂😂

This year has been an absolute nightmare in a lot of ways. The dead body of the current order is rotting atop all of our souls.

But I am proud that I have chosen, at least, to channel what remains of my energy into art.

Writing, coding, writing, coding. That's how I'm surviving at the moment.

genuinely, you have to stop relying on corporations to build and maintain your connections to others.

if you want it to last, you're going to have to build it yourself, with others.

Rotating coding and Deadlock is surprisingly effective for both activities...but maybe not for my sleep schedule lmao

its so juicy and inspiring tho, and it feels like the spirit of Hopoo games has infused the whole project. Games are really good actually!

THE GAY TRANSGENDER ANTIFA POLYCULES OF SEATTLE ARE GOING SICKO MODE TONIGHT

THANK YOU SEAHAWKS TOTAL CULTURAL VICTORY!!

AMERICAN IDIOTS BLOWN OUT BY THE AMERICAN WOKE ALLIANCE HELLLLL YEAHHHHHHH

BREAKING: We’re suing the Trump administration for refusing to issue passports with accurate sex designations for transgender, nonbinary, and intersex people.

This action violates the Constitution.

Metal Gear Solid was a prophetic vision no one was ready to heed

excerpt reads: "I hear stories about directors who scream at actors, or they trick them somehow to get a performance. And there are some people who try to run the whole business on fear. But I think this is such a joke -- it's pathetic and stupid at the same time. When people are in fear, they don't want to go to work. So many people today have that feeling. Then the fear starts turning into hate, and they begin to hate going to work. Then the hate can turn into anger and people can become angry at their boss and their work. If I ran my set with fear, I would get 1 percent, not 100 percent, of what I get. And there would be no fun in going down the road together. And it *should* be fun. In work and in life, we're all supposed to get along. We're supposed to have so much fun, like puppy dogs with our tails wagging. It's supposed to be great living; it's supposed to be fantastic."

once again thinking about this passage from David Lynch's book Catching the Big Fish

Image telling a story about David Lynch which reads "In my attempt to make David Lynch sick by thinking mean thoughts about him landed me in the hospital due to a fairly damaging seizure. I was in the hospital for 3 days only thinking a happy thoughts about me and stealing any sort of medical equipment I could find and have about two bags full of hospital equipment now. Tonight I am back home and I will hook up all of the hospital tools and start thinking negative thoughts about David Lynch again. The 3 days should have rested me and tonight I will use these heartbeat monitors and toilet things to have extreme negative energy.

David Lynch is my favorite filmmaker of all time, a deeply inspirational artist who has forever improved my approach to art, and he also inspired perhaps the most fitting and funny post ever made. Absolute legend who will forever be missed.

The monstrous cruelty of this nation should never be forgotten

proposing LIFE IMPRISONMENT for being on the wrong side of a line, enforced by citizen bounty hunters and allowing "legal" slavery

I have nothing but disgust for the American Addiction to cruelty and hatred.

give Ultros a try! its an absolutely gorgeous, psychedelic sci-fi game that takes the metroid style in a really cool direction (cultivating a map-spanning garden)

also, I definitely second Hollow Knight, its probably the best game of its type in many years!!

doing all i can

to make something to be proud of

"engage in non-conforming behavior" is literally just ordinary human freedom

afaik this is the closest conservatives' have come to outright and on-record stating they want to coerce everyone to conform to their narrow, stiff, bland social conservative lifestyle

Been watching through the Fargo TV Series and absolutely loving it.

First season was good but felt like it was finding its footing. seasons 2 and 3 have been absolutely fantastic. Loving the weird surrealism of season 3 and the extreme stylistic choices therein.

Good stuff!

youre going to LOVE it, some of the best TV ever made. legendary!!

flying means having at least one thin metal bar pressing into my knee and/or shin for hours just because I have longer than average legs!

oh my god yes, the times Ive been able to take even slow rail long distance have been much more comfortable. being able to realistically stand and move a little makes a huge difference, not to mention enough leg room that my legs arent in physical pain

wow I got free snail wifi after jumping through a bunch of logins and “reward program” so I can complain about how miserable and expensive flying has become

almost everyone I know is scattered across america so into the tube that hates my body I go!

the airline industry of 2024 is just a parade of meticulously designed discomforts and minor humiliations to try and squeeze you into paying even more for an already horrible experience

insanely hostile to disabled ppl and anyone who isnt young, thin, and short.

tired, maybe a little sad, but dreaming of strange little guys and weird gods to put on the page :)

Pastele, Pernil and Mofongo today at the market, chill Waffle House run at midnight, saw beluga whales, two whale sharks, and a huge manta ray at the aquarium. Spent time with my nephew and in-laws. Beautiful day tbqh

Icme is an all encompassing entity tasked to keep the town, that has been ripped from the planet's surface, safe.Of course most people fear it, but some find it's embrace comforting and see past the imperfect, fleshy exterior, willing to aid it in it's mission.

Sometimes the freak matching yours is the avatar of the pulsing flesh embracing your post-apocalyptic town, and that's okay!!👁️👁️👁️

the universe demands Milwaukee Queen Mike and Jay Bauman (on estrogen)

It seriously bothers me that, much like email spam bloat, there is now notification bloat.

Apps with necessary, time sensitive notifications like Uber, Doordash, etc. take advantage of your need to leave notifs on to spam you with endless ads. Encroaching uselessness!

I think I might be a cigar guy…
