reminder: It is illegal to use a device like the Allmiibo ($12) to skirt around the $30 greed of a $4b company UNLESS of course you own every Amiibo and manually scanned them into the Allmiibo (after wiping it because it comes preloaded with all of them)
you should never do this

Our episode on INSIDE is out now! Draped in opaque storytelling is a fascinating little horror-tinged puzzle-platform dealing with themes of autonomy, free will, and systemic oppression. The best thing about games this interpretive is...well, exactly that! Hope you love the show today. Links below!⬇️

i can't believe we're hurtling into the cyberpunk future but we don't even have any of the cool shit. if a corporation is going to own me I at least want to smoke a cigarette in a dingy, neon-lit bar while a bartender with a robot arm despondently cleans a glass next to me

I talked to @ckunzelman.bsky.social about his Assassin’s Creed book, which turned into wide ranging conversation about how everything in entertainment is basically trying turn us into conspiracy theorists

Video games may be turning players into conspiracy theorists, but so is everything else.

Treasure Planet 2 (unproduced): The Centurion, art by Emil Mitev
It's all the more unfortunate that Treasure Planet didn't find its audience, as it was conceived as the beginning of a saga. A sequel was already in pre-production before being canceled a few days after the film's disastrous release.

The idea that one has to be a Jew in order to have any meaningful understanding of what is or is not Zionism in theory or in practice is to more or less render the term meaningless. Like saying you have to be white to understand white supremacy or Hindu to understand Hindutva.
As a Zionist, you don’t speak for me and you’re not Jewish, you probably don’t know what Zionism is.

My thesis was painful to write. I’m still working on expanding it into a creative outlet, but losing two intellectual figures I deeply cherished made me step back for a while. Now I’m focusing on learning rather than producing. And yes — the lyrics from the song are the opening of my thesis. 🥲
“I don’t want to talk about it anymore, if that’s all right. I feel like the dust hasn’t settled”: The devastating personal pain behind one of Radiohead’s most affecting songs
The melancholy masterpiece was a highlight of the group’s last album to date, and was accompanied by a surreal Paul Thomas Anderson-directed video
