I really wish we started treating Twitter in the same way we did 4chan. The legacy of what Twitter was and the problematic relationship people have with it prevent them from seeing that it’s 4chan. Yeah it can be funny, interesting, and wild…but you’re still on /b/ and /pol/… it’s bad for you.

Friends, Pipistrello and the Cursed Yoyo is very good.

If you crave a Zelda style game with neat movement-based puzzles, I cannot recommend this game enough.

Brian Fellow is a simple guy. He just wants to race laps around the house, get some scritches, enjoy 2-6 square meals a day, and yell at the occasional squirrel.

Look at this guy. You need this guy in your life.

Walking in front of these folks after passing them on the sidewalk and from behind me I hear: "I know that man. Why do we know him?"

Father: "He does seem very familiar."

Young daughter: "He was on Nailed It!"

Forever recognized by children from one episode of television.

If ya'll could boost my game I'd very much appreciate it!

Trying to get to 50 reviews for the Steam algorithm. I already have glowing reviews from the likes of Raigan Burns (N++) and Daniel Linssen (Leap Year) and just need a handful more.

The Brunch Bunch are learning to do Big Kitten things like eating wet food, drinking water, and pottying themselves (and how to play with toys, wrestle, climb, pounce, wrestle and skeedaddle)! This is my favorite stage of kitten development— it’s so fun watching all the little lightbulbs come on!

We still haven’t found a home for these two adorable four-year-old kitty cats in Los Angeles

If anybody is open to receiving all of this love, please contact Nico ASAP.

Their owner has passed away and they need a new forever home.

The “Calvin’s dad explains two types” meme, inspired by a Calvin and Hobbes cartoon.

Clockwise from top left:
1) Calvin’s dad walks into frame to find Calvin trying to operate a record player. The dad says: “There are only two industries left in America: gambling, and fraud.”

2) The dad shows where the record goes, and how to turn on the player, while Calvin watches. Dad says “Derivatives? Gambling. AI? Fraud. Video games? Gambling. Social media? Fraud.” Calvin says “yeah”.

3) With one hand open palm up, Calvin’s dad cheerfully explains to Calvin out of frame below him, “The stock market looks like gambling, but it’s actually fraud.”

4) In bed in a dark room, Calvin clutches at his pillow, eyes wide in existential terror. There is no text in the panel.

Picked up Pipstrello and the Cursed Yoyo and it's great.

It's themed as a Game Boy Advanced era Zelda but about a small bat, his magic yoyo, and the perils of an electricity provider monopoly. Lots of combat options, fun puzzles, good exploration.

It'll tide me over until Mina the Hollower drops.
