Whether itโ€™s News Radio, King of the Hill, Barry, or Strip Law, if Stephen Root is the third-billed actor on a show, you are required to watch it

Here's the thing I will continue saying every time this came up: Kamala Harris did not mention trans people in her campaign. She went out of her way to avoid it. She dodged every question on trans rights. And then she still lost. So what Newsom wants is *open hostility* to trans rights

"Dems are focusing too much on identity politics" is like if I said "I kissed so many girls in high school." It didn't happen, but it's a nice thought.

This is my 4K setup. It can output 120 frames per second, OLED, smooth update rate. It lets me see how much games look like shit. Just makes them look godawful. There is nothing in the world that looks good on this screen. Thank god. I was close to having fun.

one extremely clear thing about the BAFTA situation is that the BBC editing out 'free Palestine' and not the n-word is exactly the kind of clown-shoed institutional racism that makes people dislike the BBC

No win scenario where maybe they could mitigate some damage and choose a better loss but nope showing themselves so much

knowing that nobody at the BAFTAs spoke to Delroy or Michael, that apparently there was a 'sorry if you were offended' apology, and the fact that the BBC took time to edit "free palestine" and not the slurs has made an already ugly no win situation much worse

There's a broader conversation to be had about the conflation of games journalism and games writing, but yea I guess I just wanted to make the point clear: I am not a journalist, I am just a girl with strong opinions about art and media.

This is a nitpick, but I see people qualifying me as a "videogame journalist" and it's like, no, I do not do journalism. I'm just a critic/writer.

The CEO-brain around Overwatch is real despite most people trying to read Twitch metrics and Steam numbers. But I was also in a Discord recently where someone worried that Tomodachi Life being launched so close to Pokopia would threaten it's success due to audience overlap

It doesn't help that business news is among the easiest content about video games to aggregate and regurgitate. How many websites that are left that still have a news tab just rehash a Totilo or Schreier or Kotaku news team or Rebekah Valentine story but worse

Metroid Prime scan ass plan. Find it in the pirates' base next to a scan about how it all went wrong and the vapor-brained science team was put in the trash compactor

game audiences overvalue content so much. first of all thereโ€™s never ever enough your players will vacuum an entire elden ring in 3 days. but similarly if a game is suddenly boring and empty after youโ€™ve played the new patch content once or twice thatโ€™s not a content problem lol

The video game industry decided to discontinue their product, the video game, in exchange for trying to make Fortnites. They have in recent years found out this doesn't work, so they have pivoted from making Fortnites to making ????????????????? nothing I guess
