a digital poster made of colorful, mis-matched cut-out paper letters. the message says "Gen AI makes you look goofy as hell". digital text below says "do it yourself, pay an artist, steal judiciously." at the very bottom, in red text, it says "have a little self-respect."

Where I am from, Ryu Hayabusa will have to team up with the likes Hayate, Ayane, Derrick Cole, Alex Hendrickson, Torque Blackmore, Sam Fisher, John-117, BloodRayne, and every single Duncan Idaho ghola if they want to clean house before the next election cycle! 😤

We've still got Teruyo Nogami, Kurosawa's assistant-turned-documentarian, and who is 98.

We've got Kyōko Kagawa at 93, youngster Akira Terao at 78.

But for *STARS* - actors who led those hard-hitting dramas and trend-setting genre films of the golden age - this is it. This is the end. RIP Nakadai.

Friendly reminder that politics is NOT a spectator sport that you partake in once every 2-6 years and then deliver color commentary every other day. The capitalist elite know this and the elected officials LIVE this, so issues like the ACA tax credits are something you have to care about well beyond any election cycle and across ALL levels of government that represent YOU. Sincerely, a concerned social democrat stuck inside a deep red state.

I mean, what’s stopping you from adding tits and/or cock to your spooky guy?

Such an addition could only enhance the spookiness!

No matter how hard people try to convince us having empathy is wrong,

it is right.

No matter how hard people try to convince us that diversity is a weakness,

it is a strength.

No matter how hard people try to convince us that love is limited,

it is unlimited.

“The arts are not a way to make a living. They are a very human way of making life more bearable. Practicing an art, no matter how well or badly, is a way to make your soul grow, for heaven’s sake. Sing in the shower. Dance to the radio. Tell stories. Write a poem to a friend, even a lousy poem. Do it as well as you possibly can. You will get an enormous reward. You will have created something.” -Kurt Vonnegut, A Man Without a Country

This. Always this.

The one time that Sterling Archer was 💯% justified for having a violent outburst against a colleague:

Might be the most truth ever delivered in one thread.

No Mac collection can be declared complete without a boxed copy of one or all Marathon games!

SNAP is not the reason your taxes are high.

SNAP recipients don’t need to “just go get a job”.

Most of them work. The rest are disabled, elderly, children or caregivers.

People need & deserve assistance

Your taxes fund wars and tax cuts for the ultra rich

Be mad about that

People are upset about the 32-round AR that was introduced in Halo 3?

Fox News is Cocomelon for old people. Change my mind.

Oh hey, it’s releasing on my birthday!

Will definitely try it out on my Xbox Series X.

CW: satirical rage-bait ahead.

Me forgiving Phil Spencer for all the Xbox layoffs, cancellations, and price hikes because he helped to get development for Ninja Gaiden 4 off the ground (it’s the best 3D Ninja Gaiden game in 17 years):

First impressions on Ninja Gaiden 4 be like:

North American box art for the 2001 video game “Dead or Alive 3” released on Xbox.

North American box art for the 2003 video game “Dead or Alive Xtreme Beach Volleyball” released on Xbox.

Resource Based Economy | A New Vision For Humanity THE NEXT STEP IN SOCIAL EVOLUTION Resource Based Economy offers a straightforward approach for an alternative socio-economic system unlike anything...

IMHO a Resource Based Economy is a lot less of a mouthful to say…

Sleep is a biological necessity, and sleep deprivation has real physical, psychological, and social consequences that need to be taken seriously. The way our society treats it as slothful to sleep according to natural rhythms (including midday naps and variant chronotypes like night owls) is evil.
