- Comment on Sure, mom, liberals are racists 3 days ago:
It’s a historically centre right ideology, e.g. the Aussie RWNJs call themselves liberals. Fox has successfully renamed the progressive left as liberals in America, as part of a larger effort to keep actual leftism out of the overton window.

Let it be known that today I consciously decided not to send something horrible to my loved ones.
Today they are well loved indeed.

This is a simple misunderstanding caused by the difference between what the word actually means and what propaganda has made it

You don’t feel you came on a bit strong? Did you actually expect a sensitive and conciliatory response to your comment?

- Comment on oh man 1 week ago:
The corporate media are inveterate reactionaries - that stance even sums up their business model. It is hilarious that they are so lost in their own bullshit that they assume their enemies are reactionary also.

Apparently I’ve just shared in Funko Pop’s passion for creativity.
Is this a different language that sounds deceptively like English? I feel like someone wrote this by ruining whale song through an LLM.

Don’t worry about it. If the whole thing would still be hot without the novelty, that ain’t a fetish it’s just window dressing.

… Maybe it’s in the tradition of Magritte? “This is not a game.”
- Comment on Making peace with liking very few games? 2 weeks ago:
We don’t really teach appreciation of art enough. People unabashedly “hate watch” shows or go out to see blatant cash grabs in theatre, and buy games they don’t enjoy…
I’ve had arguments with friends who defend shows they admit have no redeeming value, and are only watching it because there’s a lot of it. Like there’s a hole in them that can only be filled with sufficient volumes of content. I can’t even talk to them anymore.
Art is in a way the study of choice. To simply make things without meaning anything by them, without doing anything on purpose except to make money, to me is little more than cheap nihilism - without adding to the conversation in the way that considered nihilism can.
A few game makers actually do contribute to the conversation of games as art, following on what came before and enriching us with new ideas. Those few should be followed closely and supported, when you find them.
- Comment on Obsidian's new first-person RPG Avowed channels Baldur's Gate 3 in one key way: "The core of RPGs that makes them special is missable content" 2 weeks ago:
Of all the callow villainry, I wish a comparison to Baldur’s Gate 3 was the worst I’ve heard. I have seen such articles talk about Avowed in terms of Skyrim, which was released closer to Banjo Kazooie than Avowed. No irrelevant remark is beyond them, no matter how patently inane.
- Comment on 'Moana' is the most streamed movie of the last 5 years with more than 44 billion minutes of stream time - Streaming Movies Right 2 weeks ago:
