New article from The Free Press

My Favorite Actress Is Not Human

“Not everyone is happy about this gorgeous innovation,” writes Tyler Cowen.

Tilly Norwood doesn’t need a hairstylist, has no regrettable posts, and if you wish to see a virgin on-screen, this is one of your better chances. That’s because she’s AI.

In the old days if you bought an action platformer you wouldn't beat it! Entire bosses would be rumors! You'd hear "my brother says if you beat it fast enough Samus takes off her clothes" and everyone would say "shut up Cody" but then the quiet new kid would say "it's true" and it would be news!

Metroidvanias are either Protestant or Catholic. Castlevania? Catholic, of course. Metroid? Protestant. Blasphemous is Catholic. Dead Cells, Protestant.

Hollow Knight is Protestant, but Hollow Knight: Silksong is Catholic. That's why people are complaining the game is hard. Cause it's Catholic now.

UPDATE THIS LITERALLY HAPPENED

Two law enforcement sources told CNN that agents quickly ran an initial search on one of the markings, including a series of arrows, which analysts initially interpreted to be a connection to the transgender community.

Nothing funnier than the back covers of board books for infants. Just an editor working their ass off to tease a plot out of "reader says good night to some animals." Two quotes from an author and the NYT being like "Mesmerizing... A modern masterpiece" and "Little Blue Truck's triumphant return"

Okay look the Department of Defense was a pretty stupid name considering we've been in shooting wars as long as anyone can remember and the last time our country was invaded was when Pancho Villa rode over with a handful of cowboys to provoke us into invading Mexico
