So I bet whenever you picture your body's internal systems, organs, bones, circulatory, etc. your brain just kind of assumes it's at least somewhat self-illuminating in there.

JD Vance becoming President, no matter the circumstances, feels like it forever seals America's reputation as an unserious country. Like you'd think Trump already did it but in a weird way, he feels inevitable, like of course we'd vote for that guy. But Vance? Just a complete 4chan country.

I'll keep saying this: The left are annoying while the right are assholes/monsters. But most human beings prefer the latter, even if they logically know it to be worse.

I get the feeling Animal Well is relying almost entirely on its aesthetics to hold my attention. And good aesthetics, those are. But if you're a Metroidvania, you've got a very limited amount of time to convince me why I should care more about you more than the other 18 billion games just like you.

Adding to this: Games that refuse to explain how they work because, art. Rarely is your game's creative vision good enough to justify this annoying practice.

What is even the joke here? Things outside this specific religion exist? I don't want to be 'kids these days' about racism but racist jokes are lazier now, right? In fact I'm not even sure this qualifies as racist. It's like an incomplete sentence. Like yes, Bacon. Then what happened?

I love that the ascension of Vance is basically viewed as either the immediate collapse of this regime and its supporters or the functional end of virtually all civil liberties in the United States and maybe abroad, depending on who wins the ideological war - Trump diehards, or Thiel and Yarvin.

When I was deep into playing the Long Dark, I couldn't really sleep restfully knowing I left my character in some kind of predicament. Like, if they weren't comfortably indoors with a stash of food, it added a cloud of anxiety over my real life until it was resolved. I called into work over this.

I'm getting fatigued on indie games that just present themselves as one big joke, and would love to have more that present themselves earnestly without being outright pretentious. But that's basically what you get in indie gaming. One or the other. Feels like we're hurting for something in between.

Bouie said some time ago that US Soldiers weren't a mindless bunch of killbots that would just do whatever Trump told them to do, and while I think he was being characteristically optimistic at the time, I do think that Trump himself could engineer that take into being exactly right, in time.

I'm hoping the fact that people clearly hate this overrides the propaganda campaign that anything and everything is justifiable so long as number-go-down. Americans ruin so many good things, regardless of statistics, because it annoys them. So here's hoping it sometimes works for bad things, too.

America's traditional lust for profit & greed was insulating to a point, its own stabilizing power structure that brought a warped sense of order to society, where everybody's money was worth seeking. Now, the ultra wealthy have increasingly chosen control over profits. Turns out, that's much worse.

The reason I'm a lot less confident in the emergence of a 'Woke 2' is that corporations didn't even want to do Woke 1 but figured it would be more profitable, while corporations now very much want to be racist and homophobic and don't seem to care what effect that has on profits at all, anymore.
