The Dapper Critter (or just "Critter".)

Displaced Palestinian families suffer as heavy rains flood Gaza tent camps Palestinians call for better tents and other supplies as Israel maintains restrictions on aid to war-ravaged Gaza Strip.

The Israeli genocide continues as expected: with all infrastructure brutally and intentionally destroyed, Palestinians in Gaza are dying from Israel's continued blockade on aid, Israel's continued land theft, and Israel's continued murdering.

Sharing in light of ongoing discussion of Samus's identity in a meta sense.

Also more cultural context for Metroid and Metroid in general because FUCK YEAH.

I think nothing is more telling of the kind of person & general age demographic of this social media more than the fact how through just casual browsing I see many people actually appraising TV Tropes.

Guys the Old Internet is Not that cool.

OK I'm seeing too many comments and QRT's being silly and dumb (but not me, I'm smart and considered), so I'm going to point out that the main problem is that Americans think Samus is Boba Fett, while the creators in Japan were more likely thinking of these:

Happy--OH.

You know what, you guys do what you like, I think I'll skip this one.

Happy Purple Fire Cat Day to all who celebrate!

@b0tster.yeag.gay is one of those inspiring artists that make you believe in yourself to achieve such projects through your own hands, since they inspire a lot of people who are doing indie projects wether animation or games, in the age of AI bros there's still hope for human crafted works

Blaze the Cat

Sonic Rush came out 20 years ago today.
Meaning it's been 20 years of Blaze the Cat.
Still one of my favs they ever introduced into the franchise and it's kind of crazy she's now been around for that long.
I hope we can play as her in a platformer again sooner than later.

Mainstream palaeoart often seems lily-white in terms of the diversity of its contributors. But pieces of palaeoart that rank among the -MOST SEEN- works in the entire field were examples of black craftsmanship. This week came news on the passing of Garfield G. Minott (1966-2025)... cont

Big if true.

Like I'm so-so on having more verbal characters around, especially when we don't know if this is for storytelling or marketing-based decision, but I am DYING for somebody to flesh out the politics of the Metroid universe.

It's my one weird hill to die on here.

Been waiting months for this one and I can assure y'all it is worth the wait.

Disclaimer: Weirdly enough this wasn't inspired by Metroid Prime 4 news at all, I just had some pointed shower thoughts about how bad gamers can be at naming shit.

...

Ok, you can eviscerate me now.

Like has nobody ever once thought it was easier to just say "search-action" and "survival RPG/undeath simulator"?

You know there's nothing inherently evil about saying "Metroidvania" but I also feel like it's a lot closer to "Soulslike" in terms of "annoyingly derivative nickname that limits game design and the discussion thereof for the genre to copycatting" than people will admit.

One thing that's abundantly clear: passing the SAFE Research Act would permanently end the United States' ability to be competitive in any area of advanced technology. Just straight up suicidal policy-making.

AI is DECIMATING trades you take for granted until they're ruined by reckless slop.

Airport announcements? Somebody voices that.

Medical diagram your dentist shows you? Somebody drew that.

Your customer support ticket? Somebody answered that.

College textbooks? Somebody wrote that.

Pomni kart....

God-tier taste

people are mentioning berserk but honestly the thing that inspired this helmet shape first was the phantom of the paradise mask

The Adult Swim animated special “The Elephant” premieres December 19th at 11PM EST.

The special is an experiment that consists of three-acts from Cartoon Network veterans Rebecca Sugar and Ian-Jones Quartey, Pendleton Ward, and Patrick McHale.

Its clear that allowing any one person to amass as much wealth, power and influence as Jeffrey Epstein and his clientele have was both a policy and a moral failure. We owe it to the victims of these monsters to never allow one preson to hoard wealth. Save the kids, tax the rich!

i think peter thiel should have his fortune stripped on the way to prison and everyone who worked at gawker in 2014-16 should get $100 million
