Since this post is aggregating my Bloomberg column, I kinda feel the need to clarify that the Imagine Dragons game is not "live-service" (designed for recurring monetization). It's a $15 multiplayer shooter with no microtransactions.

Here's the original article: www.bloomberg.com/news/newslet...

i feel like this when I'm stood with my friends (I am a lot taller/bigger than most of them)

Even if Harry Potter was actually the most woke book ever made, it would still be funding the worst political attack on trans people in our lifetime.

Anyone arguing about whether the book is good or not is missing the fucking point.

good morning bluesky friends ❤️

Such a shame. His last words were about how F1 isn't what it used to be and we should bring back the v10s.

On metacritic the first film was a 46, but this one is a 35.

IT'S POPPING EVERYONE STAY CALM IT'S STARTING TO HAPPEN
