(Surprisingly not bad for a Bubsy game. A bit *too* self-aware to the point it feels like almost everyone seems to tolerate Bubsy at best, even Bubsy himself, and the bridge level could've used an extra checkpoint, but the controls were good and I had some fun with the levels)

Renault would be lying in bed, his pillow over his face, though thankfully not trying to smother himself.

Seems like he's in one of those ruts.

(And of course, they obviously don't care that if RA *did* walk it back because of them, that would also be "caving" and "giving in", because it would benefit them, and that makes it ok)

Renault Amamiya @cardinalrenault.bsky.social · 1d

(I honestly don't know if they genuinely believe those games should be allowed on RA or if they're just butthurt their RA score's going to go down in a similar fashion to the main argument against Student Loan forgiveness being "I suffered, why should we make it so no-one else has to?")

"Just had to fire someone from the IT department and now I'm sitting here trying to figure out the logic that led him to conclude that he didn't need any bubble wrap to ship laptops and monitors to remote workers, and I just can't wrap my head around it."

Renault Amamiya @cardinalrenault.bsky.social · 1d

"Heh, of course. Thank you, Storm."

Renault Amamiya @cardinalrenault.bsky.social · 2d

"That would be very much appreciated, Storm. Please let me know if there's anything I can do to repay you."

Renault Amamiya @cardinalrenault.bsky.social · 2d

"Ah, thanks, Storm. Saves me from having to throw something in the microwave again when I get home."

Renault happily takes a sandwich.

Renault Amamiya @cardinalrenault.bsky.social · 2d

"Fair enough."

Jet the Hawk @jetthehawk.bsky.social · 2d

"Why is it? We need specialists in everything."

"And besides, a tense, quiet heist can really hit the spot, too."

Renault Amamiya @cardinalrenault.bsky.social · 2d

"Honestly, it's surprising that the Boss, who loves loud heists and exciting getaways, keeps me, a guy who specializes in keeping under the radar most of the time, around."

(There's a word that describes a skilled player creating a new alt account just to dunk on lower-skilled players who underestimate them, but I can't remember what it is, even though I feel like that's what was probably going through their heads about you)

Renault Amamiya @cardinalrenault.bsky.social · 2d

(To be fair, "slime people" is an apt description for those who'd throw a huge enough hissy fit over this policy to change to make RA decide to walk it back)

("Iron Dominion"

I didn't read much Archie, but the fact that that's the arc where Nicole is hacked to serve the Iron Queen causing Mina to hold a fearmongering concert slandering her afterwards hurts my heart.)

"Just admit it, you're contractually obligated to have Sonic, Tails, Knuckles, Amy, and Shadow as the face of every promotional crossover so you had no choice but to dump green paint on Amy like it was Nickelodeon slime and call it a day."

Turned Amy green just so we don’t have to pay Jet

I think you mean "𒁀𒄀 𒋠𒀭𒋀 𒀀𒃠𒊠𒀀𒁠𒂠"

Renault blinks.

"Probably should've cut back on the bacon, hedgehog...or...chili dogs..."

"Too much chili dogs can cause heart attacks too, right? I'll need to consult Dr. Aquene about that..."

(Update on RetroAchievements: I've seen a post from the creator making it clear that the site's stance should NOT be supporting hate content, and have heard that the site has nuked the set for Custer's Revenge, so they are taking steps in the right direction.)

"Why do you think I have to *have* the Phantom Rogue of Babylon identity to begin with? If the police found out I was working with you guys, my garage would be shut down faster than you can say 'police brutality'."

"Believe me, Jet has no problem being wanted for felonies. He causes too many on his own."

"I wish he'd STOP bringing heat to the Rogues all the time with needless offences. We spend too much time needing to lay low because Jet thought it was a good idea to start collecting teeth from random cops."

Kage @kages-log.bsky.social · 4d

"but it'd be coooool and thats his fault thinking he's cool enough. Ya can always be cooler.

And where's the fun in always moving on to the next most important thing? Live a little, frame your friends for felonies"

"...and so, if you take into account Arthurian Legend and who the knights are in that world, then in at least one universe, the Boss has fucked Knuckles' mom."
