Hoooooly shit why aren't more folks talking about LOVE ETERNAL this game is incredible?

Comic of the beetle from the cover of Massive Attack's "Mezzanine" meeting the crab from the cover of The Prodigy's "Fat of the Land".

Hi this joke is for me

When I say gamers treat you not buying the entertainment products they like with the exact same degree of pain like you chopped off one of their fingers, this is what I mean.

It also launders its reactionary framing in a dishonest way by just quoting another contributor to the site as if they're an independent expert, which feels really gross. "Should you feel bad? Some people say yes, but my buddy Jerry says it's fine, so you decide!"

I think there's a whole separate, interesting conversation to be had about the efficacy of the modern slow-burn company-wide social-media driven boycott. I think it's unclear whether they're effective as a tactic, even if they're morally justified! But that's not what this piece is about.

"We, The Consumers, Need To Vote With Our Wallets" - The Moral Dilemma Of Supporting SNK In 2026 "You have the right to boycott, and the right to buy"

The problem w/ this piece is that it individualizes the entire concept of a boycott... which isn't a boycott. "If the company that makes my lil' treats does bad things can i still have treats?" is a personal choice. A boycott is an organized push to pressure corps in the only language they know.

MotorSlice will release May 5, 2026

Fight epic boss fights, parkour through a deadly megastructure, ang get the job done when the game is released in 2 weeks!

MARSUPILAMI - Official Trailer HD YouTube video by Pathe

IMDBing what Jean Reno has been up to is how I found out they made a film of the comic (and Disney Afternoon Cartoon) Marsupilami.

I did /not/ expect the trailer to end with a man having parts of his bike inserted into his rectum played as a joke in a kid's movie.

I hate that Troy Baker is a genuinely talented voice actor because he's also a terribly petty and insufferable human being.

The Internet’s Favorite Lawyer Says We’re Living Through ‘Multiple Watergates per Week’ Devin Stone turned punchy legal explainers into a YouTube empire. Now he’s warning that the sheer volume of Trump administration scandals is distorting reality itself.

I will be on @maddow.bsky.social’s show tonight to talk about InfoWars. Unlike the site’s current proprietor, I am not presently shirtless.

Mr. The Onion, Sir, I am a comedy person of The Internets of 20+ years experience (endurance? suffering? 🤣) and will crawl through unspeakable things to be a part of this noble endeavor.

...although I'm already on LinkedIn so really I'm not sure how much more unspeakable there is TBH 🤷‍♂️👍

documentary in which the Minions reenact their past atrocities in Indonesia.

Generally mid 30s is when the primaries and generals in purple districts are one sided against the incumbent enough that people start to peel off to try and secure reelection.

Trump just issued a last-minute warning to Virginians that if they vote YES on the redistricting referendum tomorrow, he will lose power:

“If the Democrats get additional seats, they’re going to be making changes at the federal level.”

Like the film really REALLY *REALLY* wants your ONLY possible visual-narrative takeaway on the subject of its main/title character in this realm to be: "Wow! In the mid-1970s and 80s Michael Jackson was ABSOLUTELY considered a handsome sex symbol to female fans of popular music!"

There are **SO MANY** concert reaction cutaways to (VERY SPECIFICALLY 😏) adult-age women doing Beatlemania-style screame/swoon/fainting in "MICHAEL" and, I mean ...I get the very deliberate at association/transference, movie, but - I don't think that's how you deflect those particular questions 🤦‍♂️

Once again "the death of the West" meant "the death of my secret bank account."

when you read cultural injunctions from the past, you have to remember that some of them were written by crazy people even by the standards of their day, like this shit is.

I'm probably suffering in the metrics for not having flashy titles like "Curious George's Dark Past!" or "You'll Never Believe Inspector Gadget's Secret Origins!", but I really, really, REALLY don't want to be that kind of channel.

Credit where it's due, even to The Mouse: This is a VERY positive thing to do and was also probably incredibly difficult 👍

The Jackson estate can't hide Leaving Neverland from those who've already seen it A suppressive legal battle turned the moving Sundance documentary Leaving Neverland into a ghost haunting the Michael Jackson biopic.

I will never forget the experience of seeing LEAVING NEVERLAND at its Sundance premiere. For @avclub.com I wrote about a devastating, definitive documentary about surviving sexual abuse that cannot be erased.

I just want to say, by the way, that the Wikipedia pages about the MJ allegations are obviously controlled by stans

also even Thoreau wasn’t actually like that! that guy recognized the value of community!

who raises the cattle that you cook? who grows & harvests the vegetables that you prepare as a side? who transports it to the stores that you buy it at? who maintains the pipes that fill your glasses with clean drinking water? and who cleans the water?

when's the last time you truly fed yourself?

we owe our evolutionary success to our social behavior; interdependence is our species' primary survival strategy. it's isolation that will get you killed in an apocalyptic scenario, not the other way around.

like this is an extremely well documented and verified fact about humans writ large: cooperation is how we became such a staggeringly successful species.

this fact also enrages and confuses loathsome manosphere types who know somewhere in their bones that it’s true

It bears repeating that historically, the #1 thing that keeps people alive in hard times and disasters is “the ability to play well with others”

Counter-counterpoint: This is a take that's only held by people who have never lived through an actual disaster.

This Mary Morgan person is, for lack of a better term, fucking insane. The more she digs in on this position, the more deranged she sounds. I'm sorry she is surrounded by horrible men, but that's your problem, lady, not ours.
