Mister Misato

The cast of the video game “Paper Mario: The Thousand Year Door” gives a curtain call.

Beating Thousand-Year Door again - on Halloween day, no less - was quite the experience. Every time I finish this game and reach this screen, I always think, “welp, that’s it. That’s the best game I’ll ever play. Now it’s just disappointment on down for me.” And I’m right at least 1/2 of the time.

all i want from the Dems is to not grease the wheels of genocide. i’m a single issue voter i guess. they’re not going to help us build a better world but they don’t have to join in on our demise

Welcome to the winning team brother

idk about y’all but the rest of my 2023 is fuckin ruined

I truly can’t imagine the person I would be, the art I would’ve made, the choices I might’ve made, the wide-open vistas that might exist in my brain if the constant anxious horror of the last 10 years in America wasn’t just 24/7 squatting its horrible carcass on every cell of it.

Andrew Cuomo’s campaign just posted — and quickly deleted — this AI-generated ad depicting “criminals for Zohran Mamdani.”

Features a Black man in a keffiyeh shoplifting, an abuser, a trespasser, a trafficker, a drug dealer, and a drunk driver all declaring support for Mamdani.

Vivian being this scared of a ghost will never not be hilarious to me

the only things gamers hate more than people who don’t play video games are video games

“Open” is the operative word here though and I do think they always wanted to be something like this even if they weren’t always explicitly like this

If we are being honest the shift in culture has to do with the fact that all the people that are richer than god are massively anti social nerds

a swastika? in a republicans office? of the republican party who all explicitely endorse fascism? no way this could have been predicted

Most realistic and relatable character 🖤

Asuka arrives at the only honest emotional and logistical takeaway from insomnia one can have.

Asuka asks the only important question

"tell your republican family and friends that-" i'm gonna stop you right there, we must have experienced wildly disparate bush administrations

It’s safe to say we’re officially in a Sonic renaissance now, right?

I’ve been wanting Mario Galaxy 2 on any type of Switch for over half of a decade now and it’s finally here and I got it (thanks to a mistakenly issued Target eshop gift card 🤫 ) and I’ve barely touched or even thought about it because I’m physically incapable of putting down CrossWorlds

Wisdom, moral imagination, an enlarged sympathy for those who live or have lived differently from yourself. This is what you get from studying the Humanities. So quite important, actually.

Gotta say, CrossWorlds is pretty darn good. 40 hours in and I still just wanna play in nonstop. And it’s getting new content every month?? I’d definitely recommend getting it when it inevitably gets a discount in November, even if you’re not particularly Sonic-brained.

i've been hinting at it for a while but let's make it real: Bimbo Mentality, a podcast about bimbos learning about all sorts of neat things, starts recording tomorrow! co-hosted by me and @emma.meangirls.online and produced by @deathcarpets.sisc.one

Has there been a show of Mad Men’s type that’s been as good as Mad Men since Mad Men ended?

Love Better Call Saul & Succession but don’t think either of them are quite on the same level.

Would say BoJack Horseman is definitely on the same level but it’s not the same type of show.

Sonic Team has been on a roll for the past 3 years so I was fully expecting CrossWorlds to be good but I was not at all prepared for it to be, like, one of the best games I’ve ever played

Morpheus hyping up everyone in the wake of their seemingly inevitable doom to spur a mass celebration of their collective humanity is just some of the greatest life-affirming storytelling.

I really can’t even start to comprehend how everyone is driving now without assuming that Covid caused mass brain damage on an unprecedented scale and nobody wants to admit that our brains are all scrambled.

it's cute that the three tracks of the Secret Cup in Sonic Racing Crossworlds are just "hey check out our last three Sonic games we're really proud of them :)"

Having worked in both grocery store bakeries and bougie cake boutiques, this is wildly accurate

Also I wish we had a Carvel where I live

perfect encapsulation of what the far right is doing, they want to push the overton window as far as possible. they want to enact fascism and it’s intentional

Space Princess in space

Space Princess pays a visit to Hell

Gotta admit that Rosalina lends herself well to artsy Mario Kart World compositions

I have known this is how the median voter functions for many, many years and it still makes me angry every time

please, I beg of you, consider what the change actually is before voting for it

Yeah I’ve always thought troops should be deployed to protect healthcare
