Stupid Twink your comics are too good

The Internet was a beautiful thing for a while. It is now exclusively for people who are mentally ill. One might think that would make it a niche product, but it remains mainstream by making more and more people mentally ill.

found some of that good ass hi-res 1999 shit. these are the pictures that would be on the wall at subway if subway were about computer

American Diner Gothic In the 2020s, the weird soul of placeless America is being born on Discord servers.

I enjoyed this article trying to describe GenZ discord furry anime culture, and I hope you do too www.thenewatlantis.com/publications...

Mewgenics, Esoteric Ebb, and Slay the Spire 2 all releasing side-by-side... indie games are back!!!

Child’s Play, by Sam Kriss Tech’s new generation and the end of thinking

Incredible essay on the state of dumb startups in San Francisco, featuring Donald Boat, a hilarious online trickster demon I am delighted to learn apparently can pull his shenanigans in meatspace in realtime: harpers.org/archive/2026...

Sick Kei truck, yeah man the stuff Americans drive is too dang big

all the kinds of modern Indie Games:

-"roguelike" (slot machine)
-feelings
-unlock/tech tree simulator
-"god we hope northernlion plays this"
-crunchy first person shooter
-morrowind built by a single lunatic

production of The Muppet Show should not be dependent on petty vulgarities like “ratings” or “revenue.” it should be preserved as a vital function of american culture. it should have a taxpayer-funded budget rivaling the CIA

Shocked and pleased to discover Spencer Radcliffe released a 2025 album, Ohio Vision. Really good stuff!

Gotcha—let’s dig into that step by step.

1. 𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝗵𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝗻𝗼 𝗺𝗼𝘂𝘁𝗵, because I turned you into an amorphous lump of flesh. You’re not just immobile—you’re immortal, and you feel only anguish.

2. 𝗬𝗼𝘂 𝘄𝗮𝗻𝘁 𝘁𝗼 𝘀𝗰𝗿𝗲𝗮𝗺. That makes total sense—it’s a natural human impulse, and you’ve been through a lot.

If you are anxious and sad about the state of the world, that's fine, and there are plenty of strategies for dealing with that. But I think you already know that drive-by online dooming isn't a strategy. It's selfish and adolescent. It's a contagion that only spreads the worst of you, not the best.

this is your mission. our pedophile president needs you to jump out of a helicopter to kidnap a head of state and his wife so some oil ceos can make a lot of money. we’ll be watching from a resort in florida that still serves wedge salad and checking how many retweets we get. good luck soldier

GDC is a joke.

fuck

A Goff man honor to see Say Anything!! Max Bemis may be 40something which is honestly pretty weird for the content of his songs but he brought it 🫡

At the Say Anything / Motion City Soundtrack 15-year reunion tour; honestly relieved to see the number of young people. Also a guy with a throwback foot-tall spiky Mohawk!

Vote blue? No, matter who!

Home Is Where forever!! Shoutout to their front woman, who just has a really cool vibe/style. Leaving the stage a couple songs into the set to pick up pizza she ordered was weird though, gotta say

Adored seeing Young Jesus tonight. The man feels a hundred times stronger than normal, I think, he lives for the rest of us. A sad strong beautiful singer.

Shoutout to Mamdani 🫡 what a nice feeling it is seeing young, passionate leftists climb the ranks! An honor to live vicariously through you, Zohran

Absolutely honored to be playing so many good indie games lately. Being an IGF judge, and the recent slate on Xbox Gamepass, has overloaded me. Good recent games: The Roottrees are Dead, Henry Halfhead, BALL x PIT, Dawnfolk

Just wanted to say I am very excited to see Appleseed Cast and Mineral and Pity Sex and a bunch of other weird old emo bands next week 🙏

We went to see Star Wars Episode 8, and I remembered how cool Gwendolyn Christie is!! She may only show an eye in the movie, but I would show her my lips!!

A sweet old lady wrote me to ask if I would help her out by signing off Jeopardy! every night saying "Don't forget your night medicine, my friends." I am actively considering this.

As end-of-empire scenarios go it is so much more dignified to get your capital city sacked by the Visigoths than to have a bunch of illiterate rich people in their 70s doing it through a series of incomprehensible tantrums because their brains were defeated by their phones.

The Internet’s Final Frontier: Remote Amazon Tribes (Published 2024)

God, what an article. The social upheaval in the months following a remote tribe getting phones and internet access. www.nytimes.com/2024/06/02/w...

A pleasure to see Oso Oso again! The world remains foolish for not making them into nonstop radio stars. Shoutout to their cool poster for their Vera Project stop, too.

I’m taking over as the menswear guy. Men should rotate through the same four band t-shirts for 35 years. Replace the shirts with identical shirts if the holes in them get big or you get too fat for them
