One of the worst things about big budget western games is that they take up so much space it makes modern consoles feel like they have less space than the older ones

An easy way to explain luddites:
Textile manufacturers brought in machines that could do in an hour what would have taken 12 hours by hand.
And then, tried to keep paying the now 12x more productive workers the same wages as before.
That's it, that was the problem luddites had. Not complex.

Cosmic Invasion actively knows its audience far better than a vast majority of game studios. And it's unashamed to admit it.

When I'm feeling stressed out in life, I'm trying to channel that into leaving nice comments for people because it's something I can do to feel better. Anyway totally unrelated to my job moving offices, let me know if you've got anything that could use some positivity!

Gender is a spectrum from just wanting have fun to being back in town, and to varying degrees, each of us contains attributes of both, which is a beautiful thing

This show has kept me company during stressful and good times for years, so if you want to do a good turn for me you could sign up to give them a dollar a month if you've got it, you could even listen if you want to find out how great it is 💖 I'm ready to talk about PWTU at all times 🫡✨
So if you’ve ever enjoyed our show and want to hear us go through Sinnoh hop on over to patreon.com/heyjakeandjosh. Once we hit the goal it’s locked in so you can think of it as giving us a little tip for the holidays

No one does play along podcasts quite like Jake and Josh! If you haven't already please consider supporting them on patreon before the month's end so we can lock in another Pokemon season!
For a little while we’ve said that our next season will be us covering Brilliant Diamond/Shining Pearl in a Lampert run like we’re doing with SwSh but only if we hit $750 on patreon. Thanks to some listeners we’re getting close and for the rest of November we’re dropping that goal to $700!

The thing about CrunchyRoll’s enshittification is that normally I’m a big proponent of supporting official channels but if the money from subscriptions isn’t being used to pay talent and labour and the quality suffers as a result, then morally what’s the purpose of supporting those official means?

Today, I'm thankful for @morphingrid.bsky.social ! It's where Jake and Josh talk about Power Rangers, wrestling, video games, outfits, and pitch "what if this Power Ranger was secretly a dog turned into a human?"
Here's some fanart I've made over the years!

idk pride flags are always just stripes so I made a non-binary flag with my favorite dinosaur archaeopteryx. Two heads to symbolize balance between two genders!

Remember your favorite creator possibly might be struggling with imposter syndrome and doubt and this timeline sucks.. so if you find yourself thinking “wow I really relate to this persons work” or that persons work gives you joy, you should probably tell them. It’s a hard time to be a creative.
