Don't worry, Mungle is here.

Genestealer Cult Outlander Claw, I figured you could use it to represent a street racing Escher gang in 40k.

Anyway, I should be done editing R?MJ Mystery Hospital soon, which is quite laid-back and fun in contrast to when I talk about The Other Things.

Coalition loss: ‘The transphobe thing was an absolute disaster’

Interviews with more than a dozen senior Liberals show how Scott Morrison’s belief in his own ‘genius’ and self-image as a ‘master strategist’ cost the party government.

A lot of people did because we were primed to by the discourse around them. Same with "They're intentionally impossibly hard and the audience are masochists". I'm just exhausted with it still going on almost 15 years later.

Whatever From do next will be fed into the slop mill while it's still in beta. I'll be called a faker who jumped on the bandwagon, like every other time. Frauds will wank on about a hidden story for which there is no evidence at all, and that I'm stupid for not noticing it.

Can I just skip this?

I don't care that they're superficial, simplistic, infantile manchildren building YouTube grifts on their own illiteracy.

I care that they take up so much space that anything else is aggressively gatekept with non-stop abuse and condescension.

It's exhausting.

Had to stop editing and step away for a bit because revisiting it is seriously damaging my mental health.

I want to revise my "I might play the next one" to "I will never touch anything this studio do ever again, and I've been here since 1998".

Most recent recording was almost three hours long and described by Sin as "your divorced aunt ranting about her ex".

I think a wise use of Adam Johnson’s platform would be talking about this exact sort of thing, in detail, for the past decade.

Citations Needed podcast episode from July 2019 titled “How Claims of ‘Sowing Discord’ Are Used to Silence Criticism of Power” where Adam Johnson and Nima Shirazi discussed, in detail, how valid criticism aimed at people in Power was constantly redirected and dismissed under the guise of “we have an election to win.”

"Miyazaki, is it true that the message of your games is 'please fucking touch grass'?"
"(laughs) That's one interpretation. Others have said it is 'TERFs get the wall'. I like it when people enjoy my games"
