April 19th Welcome back readers. Kept you waiting, huh? It’s taken me an extra day to do the work, but we’ve got 23 new-and-interesting picks ready to go this week, so pull up a chair and grab a b…

This Week: Unfair Flips, River Kings, Wrestling Monopolies, and a whole lot more:

It’s 4/20 and you know what that means: time to crack open 0.25g of marijuana and watch Contra speedruns

Island where you can go hunt the most dangerous game of all — man.

After All These Years, it’s Moon Child Moon Child languished in obscurity until the internet discovered the power to be his friend.

For @aftermath.site, I spoke with @seven.eurosky.social about the sudden, viral love for Moon Child and the rocky history that led to it. aftermath.site/moon-child-t...

Not optimistic about this guy or his ideas.

Dawg, Google Maps is routing us through Roadside Picnic

They have already explicitly declared in-universe that minions were like frozen in blocks of ice through the whole Hitler thing, so not sure what this movie will be about

Unhappy to report the phishing one is quickly becoming a real problem now. Why go to the trouble of social engineering when people will just give up their ID, financial info, biometrics, etc. to an AV portal? There's no standards so how can you differentiate a fake one from a real one?

Steam :: Caves of Qud :: Experimental branch for testing our localization framework Hey folks, We put up a new, experimental branch (lang-experimental) for testing a total rewrite of our text generation systems. This was done to support our efforts to localize Caves of Qud. We don't ...

a bear vacuuming a floor as a japanese salaryman looks on in terror

found out about the manga kuma gurashi which is like those ones where a manic pixie dream girl comes into a salaryman's life and starts doing all his domestic chores for him to heal his heart except in this one it's a realistically drawn bear and the salaryman is terrified on every single page

Yes I know the little girl vapes SD cards or whatever. That’s different.

You know what the pragamata “discourse” should be? It doesn’t have a dedicated “smoke a cigarette” button like Vanquish.

It's the 26th anniversary of Mega Man Legends 2! If you weren't aware, we released an English patch for Mega Man Legends 2: Episode 1, a prequel demo with a unique story that never released outside of Japan!

Kotaku hires Rebekah Valentine as Senior Reporter as site expands under new ownership Owner Keleops says that traffic has doubled in under a year; further hires planned to drive further growth

I work at Kotaku now! :)

You can go watch back today's KFGD to hear me talk about it a little if you want. You could also read my alma mater @gibiz.bsky.social to learn more! www.gamesindustry.biz/kotaku-hires...

20 years ago i bought two MOTHER 3 DX boxes – one for myself, one for The Future

I can get several rejection letters from jobs I applied to yesterday this morning and it will not defeat my mood, because the infowars news is simply too good

NOT good if it still requires approval of the bankruptcy judge. STILL

As a person who has known about Infowars since alex was on public radio, I am so happy today. Fuck that guy. His legacy is the destruction of American media and he needs to lose it all.

ME NEITHER!!!! Alex has been freaking out for a couple months and not broadcasting under the infowars label, also been suspiciously absent from studio for at least 2 weeks (and a few more before that, where people assume he was drying out). Assumed it was the trump collapse… but maybe it was this

This has been in the works for about a year and a half through bankruptcy and various probate courts, and I thought the onion’s bid had been fully refused, but I guess not!!!

Join The Onion Don’t just read the news. Feel it. Be among the first to feel the news.

For fuck's sake, sign up for The Onion, and get a free limited edition IW tote.

A share of merch sales will go to the Sandy Hook families, which will be the first time they get any money since they filed this lawsuit eight years ago.

Legal fees have been insane. Please sign up and help us out!

When are you hiring Dan and Jordan

There's a war on for your mind.

pulled out the camera app so fast you wouldn’t even believe

Come get the job that I am pretty sure was financed by the sale of a Super Mario Bros. demo cartridge. You can be a more powerful asset to video game history than Mario

Twink coded Gex can still happen if people want it bad enough
