I'm pleased to announce that I have acquired the rights to the Grundy NewBrain after raising the sum of 79p and a pack of funsize Crunchies. I have plans. Please send all of your Grundy NewBrains to me so that I can rebrand them as Grundy OldBrains and send these obsolete machines back to you.

Ok now what…

This but WWE. I’m not telling parents to make their kids watch AEW instead I’m telling them to sit them down with F-Zero GX and make them unlock everything in Story Mode instead of watching WWE.

Since the Supreme Court ruling, Rowling’s relentless abuse of Imane Khelif, and now Simone Biles confronting Riley Gaines, more people are waking up to the sheer absurdity of the trans moral panic, and the cold cruelty of those fuelling it.

Almost verbatim, unbelievable

"Cora Jade Feeling Relieved After WWE Release, Gushes Over AEW" What a random, interesting headline from TMZ sports.

It is so frustrating when people say that Trump needs a pretext to escalate or a reason to be authoritarian. There is no justification for either and he has already done both without needing an excuse. This is what abusers do. They victimize regardless of what their victims do

you deserve someone who will do everything to keep you.

It's possible that Grammarly has lost it's damn freaking mind. #writing #writingcommunity #booksky

When we said that we're the party of small government and resisting tyranny to stand up for free speech, we meant just when we're not in power

Keep in mind that it’s not any behavior that has threatened the regime — supposed violence on the part of protestors is aimed squarely at silencing dissent. The most peaceful protest on earth would have the feds claiming they were attacked.

Paul basically telling his kids that Santa isn't real type energy

The same people criticizing the protestors who protect their neighbors from violent abduction will ask “Why isn’t anyone doing anything?” This is doing something. And resistance isn’t palatable or polite. When you are resisting violence, there aren’t always nonviolent solutions

the current labour smear campaign against zarah sultana is especially tiresome in its disingenuous stupidity. left wing politician speaks in favour of union causes... but wait! she's married to a union leader so obviously this is corruption. 😏 'labour together' really are obnoxious fucks.

just once id love to see a liberal apply "violence is never the answer" to the perpetrators of actual genocide

Kudos to Ron Killings for knowing his worth. He didn't take the WWEs lowball offer & became a bigger star. As a bonus, Triple H has to pretend it was a work because he made such a stupid personnel decision.

My delusional take is that Simone Biles chastising Riley Gaines and advocating for "the trans" to have their own separate category in sports is a sign that we are moving out of the worst of the trans moral panic and into late aughts style clumsy-allyship entering the mainstream.

FUCK ICE

The Oscars for Sex Trafficking

Shotzi Blackheart making her return to the indies in back to back unadvertised appearances at Hoodslam and in Tournament of Survival is a hell of a way to say "I'm BACK!" and maximize her earning potential. #GCWToSX

YES

Signs can certainly help, but I think what matters more is developing interactions and follows with the people who are smaller accounts that don’t have them. It can be frustrating joining and talking into a void. For wrestlers to be here it has to make economic sense for them to be. 🤼

"I wish we had titanfall 3"

i don’t know what to say about the images coming out of LA right now. but in case you need it, here’s a reminder that out in the streets, only water goes in your eyes. flush with water. take your clothes off when you get home & take a cool shower, wash yourself with dish soap a few times. godspeed.

i was referred to as a solo dev frequently when bloodborne psx launched & it made me uncomfortable as it downplayed the amount of effort @art-mino.bsky.social, @thenobledemon.bsky.social & @funnywes.bsky.social so every interview i did i made sure to mention them to push away from this narrative

AEW legend Trench is in the new Sabrina Carpenter video. Tony fumbled. youtu.be/aSugSGCC12I?...

I tried a little bit after Nitro went off the air, but I was a WCW kid more than WWF. I just didn’t particularly care for the style. I still don’t. But that’s essentially why I quit watching wrestling until Kenny vs Okada. If I had found the Indies, maybe I never stop.

Most interesting Meltzer news bit in forever on Observer Radio today: he said WWE is rarely, if ever, discussed by Tony & AEW execs anymore. They finally moved on!

Can all DLC character announcements for fighting games just be announced with Kenny Omega cosplaying as the characters? PLEASE???

NEW VID: My first ever Puroresu vid from 2019, all about Mitsuharu Misawa's final GHC Title reign, is back, remastered with new/better audio. The road started here. Enjoy, and please share youtu.be/mq9Ipao8D6c

Good morning. It's Saturday and I'm writing news. "It's not hard to imagine ways in which repeating the myth of Clair Obscur's team size could contribute to worse conditions for games and the people developing them." www.pcgamer.com/gaming-indus...

Riley Gaines wasn't even beaten by Lia Thomas. She has built an entire career on coming joint fifth in a uni swimming race. This is all because she's sad she was never ever going to make it to the Olympics whether trans women existed or not. I cannot imagine a shitter way to make money.

Democrats should not (must not) take Musk's money, but I want to point out how chilling it is for the president of the United States to be promising "very serious consequences" to someone if they donate to the opposition party. www.nbcnews.com/politics/don...

- saying someone who says they’re using gen ai, are in fact using gen ai, is not ‘bullying’. It’s agreeing with their statement that they’re using gen ai. - do not EVER compare calling out ai use to ‘being gay in the 1940s’. - it is theft. They all admitted to scraping data w/o permission/payment.

IT APPEARS YOUR HIPPOS ARE NOT AS FAMISHED AS YOU CLAIM, MR. 47

The "Mercedes Hogan" thing is pure racism & misogyny from WWE fans mad a Black woman told Vince McMahon & Triple H to kick rocks. Did anyone invoke that name when Kenny Omega did his belt collector gimmick? Of course not.

One of the weirdest parts about this is that it's pretty obvious we're meant to take the neon cityscape of f'r ex. BLADE RUNNER as bad and dystopian but it's been so effective at shaping our vision of the "future" and changing attitudes to East Asia that young USians interpret that stuff as positive

We all know the nazi salute is terrible. The salute launched the Tesla Takedown protests. But since then Musk is responsible for mass murder. That needs to be stressed so that people know what they're facing and can form a meaningful opposition. It isn't mentioned because it's unpalatable.

I can't believe they're actually trying "trans people never had human rights in the first place". It's like something out of 1984

60,000+ women in the demo turned on AEW during the Toni Storm match on Wednesday. That is crazy. The data in this week's Observer seem to indicate women (who are also fans of Omega & Hangman per ratings) are driving the increases.

Safe to assume vandalizing a Tesla is no longer an act of terrorism? Just vandalism, same as if you did it to a Ford.

Here’s a crossover from my day job art! Happy Pride Month wolves!

This would be the top leopard eating faces moment of all time.

I hope they do, and I hope they don’t announce it until it’s well over halfway finished. Have it take as long as it takes and put out a finished game.
