The other thing fans don’t realize is that Nintendo literally operates on that rule. They won’t greenlight a new Smash w/o Sakurai!

That’s one big reason why Rhythm Heaven had no new titles for so long — Nintendo would not proceed until Tsunko was involved (& he couldn’t due to health issues)

There's a kid in my neighborhood who is always running. Yesterday I saw him stop, pull out a tiny bound notebook, open to the center and quickly scan the contents with a look of deep contemplation. He tapped the page with the back of his hand, said "Yes. Become stronger," and broke back into a run

longer phone numbers, the computers fingers get tired

I work in telecom and have some insight about why the 1st one is so hard. But I can help you implement a strategy that nobody else is willing to try and is guaranteed to work (destroy all phone numbers entirely)

New article is live on Stop Caring

This one from @otomeniki.bsky.social, who argues that Final Fantasy Tactics memes engages audiences in a unique form of reader-response theory. Which *is* art criticism, even if it doesn't *look* like art criticism.

Give it a read and a share!
