This is your regular reminder that food doesn’t slap. Nor do shows, movies, objects, people, video games, drinks, tweets, YouTube videos, twitch streams/streamers, naps, clothes, non-abusive parents, etc etc etc.

Nobody would say this about any other medium. This hobby is infested with people who like the idea of video games but not actually engaging with them

it takes no courage to be evil, it’s actually a very cowardly act

This game is so weird but I used to love that shit. Spamming the right c button to win those relay races had me heated lmao.

Probably a weird thing to be so passionate about, but I’ll be in the cold hard earth before I stop using en/em dashes. Why should my prose suffer because a monoculture of idiots decided that any instance of it in writing MUST be AI? Like, idk man, maybe you’re just stupid.

Guess you gotta use new adjectives every single time you describe or give a critique about a game. Folks, be sure to break out your thesaurus at all times!

The fanbase of an artist who continues to write middle school level poems thinking they’re highly intellectual is frying me.

Can’t no artist with ghostwriters be in the goat rapper discussion. That’s an instant disqualification.

“But what he said was true!” Ask Smino about what Goldlink stole from him. This man has no integrity or consistency lmao.

4-8 years of "better things aren't possible"

the trouble with reading ursula k. le guin rn is i'm getting mad all over again at what's been done to sff over the last decade lmfao

Big Bad Wolf, Cotton, and Blackberry Marmalade the top 3 songs on the whole album.

My fav part of working in a *generally* quiet office job is when the boomer has his TEXT sound as the looney toons intro blasting at volume to assault my ears as he lets it ring several times a day. So cool. So fun. Def doesn’t make me want to saw my ears off.

The whole "we used ai at the start of the creative process oh but dont worry human hands made this game at the end of it!" is such a missing the forest for the trees thing that game devs are either blissfully unaware or intentionally obtuse about. And it's now becoming common.

Ignitement by @SoerbGames is a bullet heaven roguelite with some of the dopest fire VFX I've seen in a game... he's fr COOKIN up something special. Check it here: youtube.com/watch?v=9l26nIoT…

How 90% of people who claim “it’s just a different opinion” sound

there is something incredibly satisfying about reading the first page of a book, and immediately something in your brain sits up and goes 'oh, i'm going to like this' — and then every subsequent page proves you right.

PSA TO GAME DEVELOPERS/PUBLISHERS: I will not buy your game if you used genAI at any point during production, and neither will anyone who likes and RTs this post. Hope this helps! ❤️

“Don’t touch other people’s stuff” you mfs are crazy and don’t belong in a regular society. This happens where I live too. Set a timer. It’s not hard. Other people got shit to do and I’m not waiting for you to come back an hour later. Fuck is wrong with you people.

Generative AI used at any level of development is bad, no matter how little is used. Doesn’t make devs lives easier, feeds all these insane servers making all your consoles so expensive, stop trying to compromise and actually push back when it’s not convenient.

so let me get this straight: -soccer counts as brazilian/argentine culture, basketball counts as serbian/lithuanian culture, hockey counts as canadian/swedish/finnish culture, rugby counts as NZ/UK culture, but baseball and american football and college sports/march madness cannot POSSIBLY count as american culture? -afternoon tea is british culture, masala chai is indian culture, espresso is italian culture, turkish tea/coffee is turkish culture, but iced coffee (and sweet tea down south) doesn’t count as american culture? -telenovelas are part of latino cultures, bollywood is part of indian culture, but hollywood cannot count as american culture? -kpop is korean culture, jpop is japanese culture, but boy bands (which literally originated in the US) don’t count as american culture? -wine is part of italian/french culture, beer is part of czech culture, vodka is part of russian/polish culture, but cocktails and soeakeasies aren’t american culture? -kilts are scottish culture, saris are indian culture, but blue jeans and cowboy boots don’t count as being american culture? -italy can be respected for having varying regional cuisines throughout the country EVEN IF 85% of it is just different variations of PASTA but the fact that louisiana cajun and creole food is entirely distinct from NE lobster rolls and tex-mex and jersey italian american cuisine and southern biscuits and gravy etc still doesn’t count as america having regional cuisine ? -maori history counts for NZ, aboriginal history counts for australia, but native american history doesn’t count for the US? -quinceañeras are latin american culture but sweet 16s aren’t american culture? i could go on for ages but this is already too long for twitter. i’m tired of this conversation! EVERYWHERE HAS CULTURE! even if you don’t like it!
