Finished my watch through of Debris. Now that that is done, I'm starting a full watch through that I've always wanted to do: I'm watching through all of Miami Vice.

Concerning the situation with Santa Ragione and Horses, I do recommend checking out the FAQ they posted on their site. It does address some questions a lot of ppl have right now: www.horses.wtf/BannedFromSt...
Why is HORSES Banned from Steam?
First person horror adventure HORSES was unjustly refused by Steam prior to release with no path to appeal.

This was my white whale for a long time, but the sourced audio sample during Xenogears' "Blazing Knights" boss fight track was taken from Christian Brando's manslaughter trial in 1990!

Punch. Kick. Shift. Heal. Demonschool’s combat is aggressive, tactical and a true joy to play. It’s a game design coup. A true brain-itcher. @necrosoftgames.com

I'm going to wear PJs and flip flops to the airport, and you can't fucking stop me.
Sean Duffy: "Dressing with respect -- whether it's a pair of jeans and a decent shirt, I would encourage people to maybe dress a little better which encourages us to maybe behave a little better. Let's try not to wear slippers and pajamas as we come to the airport."

I remember when I played through Watch Dogs 2, it just didn't feel like it made sense to use a gun as a hacktivist, so I played through the whole game only using hacking abilities, the cue ball melee, and the stun gun. I don't usually restrict myself when playing games, but I did do it this time.

Made the mistake of posting something on a Youtube video about genAI lovers not understanding art, and got swarmed by a bunch of ppl that REALLY want to defend AI. Dude, just go live your shitty life. You're never going to convince me of your dumb opinion.

This year I'm spending thanksgiving alone, so I decided to order a bunch of food from Omaha Steaks. No steaks, of course. I don't like hunks of meat.
I ordered a bunch of seafood, because my mom is allergic to shellfish, and this is my big opportunity to indulge while she's away.

Well, I'm pretty happy I don't touch either platform, and haven't in many years.
"In late 2019, according to the brief, Meta designed a 'deactivation study,' which found that users who stopped using Facebook and Instagram for a week showed lower rates of anxiety, depression, and loneliness. Meta halted the study and did not publicly disclose the results"

I'm having a hard time choosing between Nightreign and Arc Raiders as my multiplayer game of the year. Both are really fresh in their respective genres. Both are HUGELY elevated by having friends on comms. Both have provided incredible moments in gameplay.

I'm so anal about my own writing in a way I am not about anything else. I literally just edited a Steam review I left for demonschool, because I noticed that I used the word "turn" twice in the same sentence. NO ONE CARES WHY DO I DO THIS

I was a teacher in Japan, and became friends with @budokaimr2.bsky.social while he was in college there. A couple years after moving back to the US, he called asked if I'd like to work on video games in Japan. He was working at a young upstart called Playism, and he wanted to know if I wanted in.

Is AI inherently bad? Of course not.
The question is: WHO controls it & for what purpose?
Does anyone believe that the richest people on Earth are investing hundreds of billions in AI to improve life for ordinary people, eliminate poverty & solve global warming?
I doubt it.

Finished my second watch of Ad Astra last night. Absolutely loved it. I really resonated with the very messy paternal relationship that underpins the whole movie. Definitely a movie I'd like to rewatch some time.

My return to Nightreign continues, and I just had to share my most clutch save of the session. Ended up beating the boss!
(I know I did some dumb shit here. I'd never fought this boss before).

Alright! Let's actually talk about this waterfall thing. It is an amazing showcase of many things that I adore from late 90s/early 2000s graphics.
I am replicating this in Blender through mere observation, so some things might not be fully accurate to the mind-boggling effects of the PS1.
