Con men are about appearance, so that fits. Meanwhile we have to watch a historic building get torn down and perverted into some kind of wannabe dictator palace.

The video and podcast were both really great. I feel like it's kind of a tough game to cover because of the subject matter, but also how much nuance the game has and how many supporting details are easy to miss. I've played through it three times and every time I catch details that I missed.

The prototype of Monster Party for NES was a very different game. It was much bloodier, and featured references to iconic horror monsters like Audrey II from Little Shop of Horrors, a gremlin from Gremlins, and even Jason Voorhees.

That's a great collection, and there is soooo much content in it!

I've been playing through Yakuza 0 this week and it's one of the things that's been pretty consistent even in the newest entries. I love that Sega quietly slips in excellent conversions of their classic arcade titles like it's no big deal. And it's nice to take a break and play some Outrun.

It's good that kids will have a safe way to Trick-or-Treat without getting kidnapped by ICE, but they just had to "Trunk-or-Treat" because of the pandemic (and many still do).

Traditional Trick-or-Treating is fading away because Republicans aren't allowing the US to be safe enough. I hate that.

Indoor trick-or-treat events. Candy dropoffs. Neighbors patrolling with whistles.

This is how Chicagoans are helping kids have a safe and ICE-free Halloween this year: blockclubchi.co/47qJSzi.

I don't know who's in your feed, but I've just seen people excited for it. I never played New Horizons, but I might pick it up because of the update.

In the main menu you can go to "Practice" >> "Fight" to go straight into the hockey fight mini game. It's simple, but very fun.

"With the pass!" - in your pocket.

The frame rate chugs a bit (which is understandable given how many players are on-screen at once), but there is some additional presentation flair that's quite lovely and adds some additional energy to this port.

There are videos clearly showing Kat getting thrown to the ground while peacefully protesting at the Broadview ICE facility. The current administration may not like it, but our first amendment rights are real and the courts will uphold them. The guardrails may seem thin, but they still exist.

Kat Abughazaleh @katmabu.bsky.social · 2d

I have been charged in a federal indictment sought by the Department of Justice.

This political prosecution is an attack on all of our First Amendment rights. I’m not backing down, and we’re going to win.

democrats of all stripes should be rallying around kat abughazaleh asap. it doesnt matter where you stand ideologically. trying to jail dissenters is fundamentally unamerican and 100% fascist. democratic leaders at all levels should be making noise about it. you dont need a poll or focus group.

Do not be a doomer about this. Just call your New York friends and remind them to vote, and tell them to do the same. He is more popular and will win with good turnout.

i hate to be that bitch, but my sources are telling me this early voting data has gotten Zohran's people rightly spooked and y'all better stop assuming this one's in the bag. GOTV

In a year where we're seeing $80 price tags on games, carts that don't even contain a game, companies laying off dev teams right after launch, and AI slop shoved into games, it was really nice to see Expedition 33 succeed without doing any of that.

They re-released Snow Bros on the Evercade, which is good in the sense that they acknowledged that it exists, but not so good in that it's a lot less accessible than PC or major consoles.

I'm in the same boat and really excited for the Thor. Also the RP5 plays everything I want to play on it perfectly already. I'm not sure what to do with an RP6 or Odin 3. I'm just hoping the Thor makes it into the US with the tariffs coming and then being delayed over and over.

I picked up a Mushroom & Truffle "stuffed gnocci."

The outside is great, but the filling is disgusting and it kills the soft pillowy texture gnocci usually has. It's so bad we ordered a pizza lol. We have a Mozzarella & Tomato version to try, maybe that will be better. Or we'll stick to ravioli.

We have Mr Beast Burger, and Pasqually's "not Chuck E Cheese, but totally Chuck E Cheese" Pizza, the good ones are gone though. It's a shame because it seemed like it could have been a great way to test various menus in an area without committing to a full brick and mortar place.
