twice a year the entire U.S. press becomes a marketing extension of a single billionaire-owned retailer, and nobody in any position of editorial power thinks it's weird or gross

not sure with shadowbringers because like mayb 7-Remake/Rebirth?? but like idk I really like the narrative themes and plot concepts in SHB.... I played a ton of 7rebirth but rebirth is kinda *so* huge and... normal it kinda dilutes its 'best ever' quality? even tho its really great???

Nearly a decade ago, a man's fantasy became reality in a form never seen before, Kitchen Stadium, a giant cooking arena.

The motivation for spending his fortune to create Kitchen Stadium was to encounter new, original cuisines, which could be called true, artistic creation

"nono!! this time it'll be good, im sure!!" (they fail to understand the flaws are so intrinsic to the model that either you create a site so lacking some of the things-that-cause-flaws it withers away (cohost) or just make The Latest Iteration of Twitter)

Alex (netverk) @netverk.org.uk · 6d

its so funny people (even b4 musk bought twitter) were calling it 'the hellsite' for years that when it was endangered they went 'lets do it again' instead of 'what if we just lived without it'

Originally to be inspired by vague memories of a planet simulator I played as a kid but kinda went its own path: Software Echoes

A giant rainbow star, radiating energy, hangs above a horizon. Low poly clouds float in the sky. 'Software echoes' is written in front of a grid in front of a starfield. Software is in a san-serif font, echoes is in an italicized serif. The top of the image is clouds. There are also some dots, 3 lines of them, in an irregular pattern.
