I wrote a blog for my 5-year work anniversary today: "If I were to summarize what I mean: games heal all forms of elitism. My experience in this industry has made me increasingly sensitive and resistant to elitist and meritocratic narratives elsewhere in life"

So the usual suspects are going after a "cozy survival indie game" because they allegedly worked with Sweet Baby Inc.

These people need to be put away.

Just finished Consume Me! The game is unapologetically personal but at the same time I think everyone can see a bit of themselves in it. I hope one day we’ll all find a way to be free of the critical inner voice that bounds us!

I try not to bring over twitter screenshots but I’m making an exception for this, the website that logs every slur said by TF2 players and reveals that the second most slur-using player is named “hekki grace”

a screenshot from twitter that says:
“there’s a real website that logs every slur said by tf2 players

even has leaderboards and analysis by country

you people are crazy”

included are several screenshots of the leaderboards, featuring a user named hekki grace in second place

A scene showing a gay wedding in the movie 'Together' was censored in China using AI, but it makes a big chunk of the movie nonsensical.

5. These sublet ads. I get at least one in my groupchats daily (it's 'registration not possible' for me)

Anyways there's a lot more to offer in this short and dense experience. I was surprised at the depth it was able to go in such a short amount of time. (If you play it pls also leave a review!)

3. These haircuts ifkyk 😭
4. Everything about this exhibition brochure is so accurate that I thought it's real

Finally finished Don't Get Your Hopes Up (store.steampowered.com/app/3795490) by @krishraghav.bsky.social all I have to say is pls play it yourself! Without spoiling the experience too much here are my favourite moments in the game with minimal context

1. This was a brutal read, I audibly gasped

I want to be Gemma Chan when I grow up

Seeing her in person at ONL 2023 was a highlight of that Gamescom and the whole year!

as a child but never watched the actual show, I remember it so clearly because I liked that the all-girl cast looked cool and different with their powers, which still stands from today's perspective.

I'll continue watching anime from my childhood to see which parts touch little me and me now!

The cycle repeats every 300 years. In the story the girls defeat the bad guy and end the cycle for good but the way this goes sounds really similar to real life 💀 Almost as if Caliban and the Witch were made into an anime.

I wanted to watch My-Hime because I remember seeing it on TV and magazines

to uphold their rule for the country. To maintain this, the girls are tricked into fighting each other at the cost of the life of their most loved ones. The winner who survives everyone else is awarded with the honor of marrying the literal bad guy and reproducing with him to create a new world.
