As a child, I thought “even educated fleas do it” seemed like a human acknowledgement of the value of a commonly devalued species
Now I see the hidden emphasis on “educated”, implying that fleas live in a society where a libertine educated class live above a peasant class who are not allowed love

Hi I went to the V&A player/performer event on Friday night and it was extremely fun

In the spirit of trans visibility, lemme just plug my ongoing project to document as many pre-2010 games as possible that had a trans person on the dev team. You might be surprised by what's on there. There's games going right back to the sixties!

If you squint, you might remember that brief moment when it seemed like iOS games were going to change the industry for the better.
Not at all! I’m fairly casual but am absolutely loving it
The game we've been working on with @poncle.games for... quite a while... Has a launch date, and a price!!!
Vampire Crawlers launches 21st April and costs 9.99. Get ready for a whole new addiction.

This is the good shit.

From this, which is surprisingly not shit?

Hello everyone. I come with the sad news that as you are no doubt already aware, we're saying goodbye to several of our friends and colleagues here at Eurogamer. Leaving us are Tom Orry, our editorial director; our video team of Ian Higton, Zoe Delahunty-Light, and Alix Attenborough; Alex Donaldson, our editor-at-large; and Will Judd, who worked across Digital Foundry, hardware and deals. I'll start with Tom, who over the past year-plus had made himself a hugely valuable source of advice, expertise, desert-dry humour and world class poker faces (I think we just about made him laugh once, for a moment, on his final day). Tom initially began the role when Tom Phillips was our editor-in-chief here, mostly working away diligently in the background in a two-Tom-tandem doing editorial director things, before taking on a more prominent role on the site itself over the past 11 or 12 months, gracing us with some signature console nostalgia and unjustifiably intense Project Gotham Racing enthusiasm. Tom, Dom, Alex and I, along with the rest of the team, worked together closely on what a 'new Eurogamer' might look like last year, and his experience in running multiple games media sites was consistently our rock to lean on. While he may have initially seemed an outsider of sorts compared to Eurogamer chiefs of old - at least to some on the surface, coming from his 20-plus years across our sister sites VG247 and USGamer, and before that the cult-favourite site he founded in our once-rival VideoGamer - I can't stress enough how much Tom 'got' Eurogamer. His goal was for us to be at the heart of the big stories that mattered most to our readers with original, diligent reporting and on-the-button commentary, and that will absolutely continue. In immaculately on-brand, limelight-dodging Orry style, Tom opted to sneak his farewell into this past weekend's What We've Been Playing column, but I'll be damned if he gets away with it that easily. Sorry Tom. Here's what he had to say…
From myself and the whole team at @eurogamer.bsky.social, a very fond farewell and huge thank you to our friends and colleagues (thread).💙
Ziff Davis are fucking vandals. The way they've treated these sites is a truly rotten business.

A new website about PC games, from me, @brendyc.bsky.social and @jonhicks.com.
Reader-supported, which means no ads, no guff, and lots of games blogging about delightful things to play. If you liked our work on RPS, we think you'll like @jank.cool.

Today I noticed the bongos in #Bananza.
They didn't have to put the bongos in.
Or give them a little start button.
Or make them bouncy!?
They didn't have to add an extra bongo track in the audio that comes in when you're near.
But they did.
I’ll be watching remotely this year from my sofa with some beer and space chews, because frankly fuck going to the US right now. But tune in later if you can, and stick around for when the GTPs start catching the slower traffic. Multiclass endurance racing is pretty much as good as it gets.

I don’t know of any other major international race where you can get this close to the winning car minutes after it’s completed its journey

Last time I went was a couple of years ago when they were filming scenes for the film - the most amazing thing about going to Daytona is the access you get, where you can walk right up to the garages and watch all the really special stuff happen
And ofc if the intro to the F1 movie took your fancy, this is a chance to see wrinkly old racers outbraking each other into the Le Mans chicane at just before midnight as the fireworks bloom

If you’ve got into motorsport through F1 and are curious about the world of sportscar racing there’s no better intro, and over time I’ve come to realise it’s every bit as magical as Le Mans in its own way
