I didn’t have facial hair like that until I was 25. Dude is living life on hard mode. 😂

Love that the PlayStation app now has hints for trophies. Very helpful.

That feeling when you use a new PS5 controller after months of dealing with stick drift.

I’m in a Joe Sacco mood. Might need to read some of his work soon.

Nuts how many people are moving from Xbox to PlayStation after the whole GamePass process increase. Reddit is full of so called “Xbox refugees” posting pics of their new PS5.

Protesters getting cuffed should insist on calling the arresting officers “Daddy” just to make them feel weird as hell about the whole thing.

Playing Marvel’s Spider-Man 2! Never got a chance when it first dropped. Enjoying it so far. Everything feels a lot more engaging than the previous two games. Yotei looks amazing!

I sincerely hope that they return to this idea at some point. The idea that fighting the KKK might “offend too many Americans” is a fucking travesty and a sign of just how far the US has fallen.

Assassin's Creed pulls planned game about the Civil War, apparently because having a black protagonist fighting the KKK would offend too many Americans

The canceled Assassin's Creed Civil War game was a powder keg waiting to explode

Ubisoft was reportedly working on a game set after the Civil War era, but canceled it due to politics and Assassins Creed Shadows backlash.

Was gonna play some Spider-Man 2 tonight, but I’m knackered. Just gonna listen to my audiobook and drift off to sleep. 😴

New audiobook! Always loved Tony and his unquenchable love for history. I would not be the history buff I am without Blackadder, Time Team and his numerous documentaries. I also got a signed copy at a recent event where he discussed his life and this, his first work of fiction. #Booksky
