One thing we hear consistently about despelote is how much its writing resonates with people around the worldβ€”it's a personal story, in the best way.

Star Trek The Next Generation scene. We're in Picard's ready room. Picard is sitting like a normal guy at a desk in his uniform and across him is a hoighty toighty looking Vulcan lady with a tall hat and some fancy official looking clothing and accessories sitting across from him. Standing with hands resting on the 3rd chair is Mr. Data, in uniform. 
Closed caption reads, "Mr. Data, based"

Game company sows misinformation to cover up union busting, fans fall for it, actual employee posts explaining the employees were fired to prevent the studio unionizing

This is *unacceptable*

The problems with AI in schools Teachers had one big question: What are we even doing here?

I would very much like to thank the roughly two dozen educators and experts who answered my call when I started in on the research for this episode. It took longer than I meant to make it, but we got there. ❀️

guy said, β€œDo you like Marx?”

I said, β€œI haven’t met him.”

Guy said, β€œNo, no, he’s dead.”

β€œWow, what happened?”

β€œNo, no, he died long ago.”

I thought the guy Marx had just died. So then, β€œWhy are you asking me if he died long ago?” 

β€œNo, he wrote a lot. He wrote that poor people should not be poor.” 

I said, β€œSounds amazing.”

I’m giving you a sense of how naΓ―ve I was. After they left, I went to the library to look for Marx. So that was my introduction to Karl Marx.

BS: The FBI.

MM: The FBI. Then, of course, I took a class on Marx. Couldn’t just get Marx out of the library. But,

HAMLET: THE VIDEOGAME
YouTube video by Alien Bob HAMLET: THE VIDEOGAME

NEW VIDEO: In 1996 Kenneth Branagh released an epic 4 hour version of William Shakespeare's Hamlet. In 1997 it got an official videogame adaptation that fell into deep obscurity.

Until now.

It feels pretty nice to get some material confirmation that people by and large do in fact still care about things.

The headline about Spanberger's blowout victory in VA--along with the Dems romping in the House of Delegates--is that transphobia really doesn't work as an electoral secret weapon. And this fact needs to set in, despite the dearest wishes of the most ossified members of the commentariat.

The Outer Worlds 2’s satire has a Microsoft-shaped problem The team at Obsidian talks about returning to the RPG series after becoming part of a giant corporation.

Incredibly exchange where Leonard Boyarsky says Microsoft has never told Obsidian what to do right before a Microsoft rep tells him not to talk about Israeli apartheid

So...The SΓ©ance of Blake Manor is my favorite game of 2025 so far.

A first person murder mystery with detailed investigation mechanics, superb writing, and atmosphere. Also the best game about Irish History I've ever played
