Jesus fuck. I was like "sure, I'm autistic, but no way I get a bingo! I function *mostly* on a societally 'normal' level."
I'm gonna head out.

I'm a retro freak - I've got an entire office setup to prove it - but there are experiences in gaming now that simply didn't exist in 2005. When the closest you get to queer voices in a library or era is from Joachim Valentine, Kanji Tatsumi, Vamp, or Hana and Rain, you start looking elsewhere.
let me put it in plain english, how many gay characters are there in ps2 games

This was one of the best and easiest times I've had editing a piece. @otomeniki.bsky.social is an incredibly talented writer. You'd be a fool to not hire her if she's got a pitch for you. You'd better pray she's got a pitch for you.
Niki Fakhoori examines parental trauma, the effects of dementia, and living with ADHD, and C-PTSD through the lens of Pokémon Black & White's rival N and his relationship with his own father, Ghetsis. A strikingly open and honest read. You can find Niki's other work at nikifakhoori.com.

“I see you, I hear you, but this rapists video essays are so good.”
I’m just thankful she can give us women & survivors permission and acknowledgement to speak on the topic even though her differing conclusion is that *rereads essay* predators should be absolved in the exact same ways that they already benefit from plain old patriarchy

"Level 5 is holding diamonds and spitting on them" from @seamoosi.bsky.social is the best quote I've heard in a while.

My favorite studio brought to its knees by some quarter-baked-non-functioning-techbro-nonsense. Get bent. We won't be playing the new Layton.

Oi why don't the "HD Rumble" rumblers rumble during cutscenes of the new smash hit Fire Emblem: Fortune's Weave?
I yearn for the rumbles of yore. The rumbles of yesteryear. They call to me. *brrrrrrrrt*

Sam Vu Nguyen is a 21-year-old second generation Vietnamese Australian with ADHD whose new piece grapples with perfectionism, masking, and the "need to be observed as legitimate, normal, or real" through the eyes of Ava in The Game Bakers' 2026 game Cairn.

I cannot accurately express to you in the English vernacular how anxious it makes me every time my phone buzzes. Will that anxiety inspire me to change the settings to allow fewer unnecessary notifications? Hell no, dog, I have ADHD.

I do think it's cool that whoever finalized or first suggested this book cover to her hates her fucking guts.
Hey Sarah? This book cover sucks as much as you do. It's so fitting, girl. You think you eated.

Apparently ai "writers" have started using copious m dashes. I fucking love m dashes. Don't take away my m dashes, please.

This is the profile of the AI "writer" that videogamer dot com used to write their Resident Evil Requiem "review". They gutted the staff to post this garbage. This shit is insidius, and it's past time that heads rolled from the execs making these decisions.

There's not much better than accidentally forgetting to claim your Humble Monthly for 3 months and then going through and activating all those new games on Steam. 🤌
