Young people in NYC absolutely showed out and there should be 1000 articles and profiles about this. Because we have had to put up with 1000 MAGA diner stories for years now.

I keep thinking about the symmetry of Hades 2 and Hollow Knight: Silksong both being second games where the original had an emo sadboy protagonist and then the sequel being about a girl who is just incredibly task-focused and direct and probably shops at Athleta

Consume Me is a work of autobiography born out of its creator's real experiences growing up in NYC. I spent a day with the devs visiting real places that inspired the game and looking through boxes of high school memories. A chat about how to adapt reality to game. www.polygon.com/consume-me-j...

About a year ago I was approached by Scholastic to pitch sketch ideas for the reprinting of Animorphs. After cryingscreamingbarfing I said YES OF COURSE. I am so grateful to have been chosen and for the enthusiasm everyone has expressed so far. David Mattingly left me some very big shoes to fill!

interesting that both mega raichus seem to be a combination of him and pikachu. x has pikachu’s color scheme, y had pikachu’s body. a little frustrating when raichu’s biggest problem is never being let out of pikachu’s shadow. but i can’t complain too much after begging for this for a decade.

Incredible quote from Team Cherry. Can't believe they make games like this
![It's a famous quote from Kurt Vonnegut about computers. It goes: "I work at home, and if I wanted to, I could have a computer right by my bed, and I’d never have to leave it. But I use a typewriter, and afterwards I mark up the pages with a pencil. Then I call up this woman named Carol out in Woodstock and say, “Are you still doing typing?” Sure she is, and her husband is trying to track bluebirds out there and not having much luck, and so we chitchat back and forth, and I say, “OK, I’ll send you the pages.”
Then I’m going down the steps, and my wife calls up, “Where are you going?” I say, “Well, I’m going to go buy an envelope.” And she says, “You’re not a poor man. Why don’t you buy a thousand envelopes? They’ll deliver them, and you can put them in a closet.” And I say, “Hush.” So I go down the steps here, and I go out to this newsstand across the street where they sell magazines and lottery tickets and stationery. I have to get in line because there are people buying candy and all that sort of thing, and I talk to them. The woman behind the counter has a jewel between her eyes, and when it’s my turn, I ask her if there have been any big winners lately. I get my envelope and seal it up and go to the postal convenience center down the block at the corner of 47th Street and 2nd Avenue, where I’m secretly in love with the woman behind the counter. I keep absolutely poker-faced; I never let her know how I feel about her. One time I had my pocket picked in there and got to meet a cop and tell him about it. Anyway, I address the envelope to Carol in Woodstock. I stamp the envelope and mail it in a mailbox in front of the post office, and I go home. And I’ve had a hell of a good time. And I tell you, we are here on Earth to fart around, and don’t let anybody tell you any different.
Electronic communities build nothing. You wind up with nothing. We’re dancing animals. How beautiful it is to get up and go do something. [Gets up and dances a jig.]"](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:flstla3vf27s7vpb4xeipci5/bafkreiaz4vttzwz5ev3lpzblti3ihwmnkxhagtqldl2kpx2kpdwmei7wqa@jpeg)

Making haunted Tarot Cards for a spooky, chaotic party game you play in the dark was loads of fun. Super grateful I got to help define the look of Midnight Murder Club. It’s out of early access with a new Co-Op PvE mode.
