UFO50 is one of the most astonishing pieces of game design I’ve ever seen; its a master class in elegance.

The Oblivion score is so good.

Hilarious how they throw the bootlickers under the bus to protect the POS sheriff.

Good pick! I was so bummed when I heard that was cancelled.
- Comment on What's a cancelled game you really miss? 5 weeks ago:
I’d like to play around with whatever alpha build they made for the original concept of Team Fortress 2.
I love the one that came out (it’s probably my most played game of all time), but those first few screenshots before retooling were captivating when we’d already been waiting so long for the release.
- Comment on Metro 2033 Redux is free to claim on GOG for the next two days 1 month ago:
I can’t grab it either. It keeps telling me to log in when I’m already logged in.

Time to replace our infantry with the mighty phalanx. The Achaemenids won’t know what hit them!

Urm, actually… These glyphs were pressed into wet clay and then fired.
Much like Ea-nāşir should have been.

I might have to dive back in. I had so much fun with this on the Steam Deck.
- Comment on Elon Musk Calls Social Security 'The Biggest Ponzi Scheme Of All Time' 2 months ago:
Maybe we shouldn’t have elected this fascist as president then.
He knows he’s lying, he wants to gut the benefits that we pay for to get a payout.
Fuck him and anyone who put him in office.
- Comment on It's almost that time of the year... (Easter lamb cakes) 2 months ago:
I’d never heard of Easter lamb cakes before, and it’s my sincere hope to never hear of them again after seeing this.
- Comment on Bombshell report reveals staggering amount of government funds paid to Elon Musk 2 months ago:
The thing about reactionaries is that they think that money is finally going to the right place. Enriching billionaires is the one thing the GOP consistently delivers on.
They’re happy to be subjects to the elite; that’s exactly how they want it. They don’t want that money spent on making people’s lives better by providing services, they want to be ruled by someone who they can see themselves in and therefore be raised up in the social order.
It’s pretty pathetic.
- Comment on Do you think progressives understand the difference between legal and illegal immigration? 3 months ago:
Reactionaries don’t care about other people.
Even their family; they’re notorious for disowning their children for being someone different than they wanted. They treat their wives like slaves.
He’s fine with it, because it doesn’t affect him. There’s no more thought to it than that. It’s an inherently anti-social ideology.
- Comment on Does anyone actually know what MAGA all agree they are getting out of all this? 3 months ago:
Reactionary ideology is all about protecting privilege by demonizing marginalized people. They believe in zero-sum rights and privileges: in their view, expansion of rights for another group inherently means a loss of rights for them.

I always thought it was a Nintendo thing first.

Maybe it’s aspirational.
- Comment on Exploring Kowloon Walled City in an Afternoon – Vlog (1991) by Suenn Ho 4 months ago:
Fascinating video!
I went looking for some footage of Kowloon a few months ago and I couldn’t find anything. I’m glad she recorded this while she could.
I watched the Jackie Chan movie Crime Story to get a glimpse, and they had some amazing scenes, but everyone had already moved out. It did have some crazy cool action scenes though with some long cuts.
- Comment on Dungeons & Dragons Rolls the Dice With New Rules About Identity 4 months ago:
Exactly! And then you can get the books even cheaper.
Besides, the last ten or fifteen years have been the most inventive (in terms of mechanics) in the history of the hobby. Something like Wildsea or Blades in the Dark will have a similar level of “crunchiness,” but uses those systems to empower the players and GM to improvise an adventure that is, to me, far more exciting than a D&D story and gives solid, transparent mechanical consequences for success or failure.
- Comment on Dungeons & Dragons Rolls the Dice With New Rules About Identity 4 months ago:
Some longtime players are upset.
So… The same thing that happens every time a new edition is released.
I don’t hate D&D (as a player; I’ll never run it again myself), but I do wish people would try the better offerings out there.

Well I’ve had to deal with them my whole life, so you should too.
- Comment on I'll just wait for my doorbell to ring, thanks. 5 months ago:
I would have if I expected it to be delivered. It wasn’t supposed to be there for another week, hence my surprise.
- Comment on I'll just wait for my doorbell to ring, thanks. 5 months ago:
We have a parcel room.
They don’t use it half the time.
- Comment on I'll just wait for my doorbell to ring, thanks. 5 months ago:
Same thing happened to me.
I ordered an expensive instrument, and they said it’d be delivered the week after Thanksgiving.
Got an email that it was delivered to my porch the day after Thanksgiving, when I was all the way across town.
I didn’t want to leave a $1,300 lute on my doorstep for anyone to snatch, so I drove the hour home to secure it. It wasn’t there after all, so I installed their stupid app and it told me it would be delivered next week.
One of the worst buying experiences I’ve ever had. 1/10, would not recommend.

Thanks, I could kind of tell CO by comparing to those around it, but that’s not an option the way DC is presented.
- Comment on I live in the green part 5 months ago:
The green is almost exactly the same in value as the red.
- Comment on I live in the green part 5 months ago:
Coding data in color is a pet-peeve of mine. As a colorblind person, maps like this are nearly useless to me.

Right? They were awesome.

Minestrone or Italian wedding soup are both pretty chunky.
