“We didn’t see anything strange,” say friends and family who proceed to recount behaviors that any outside observer would raise and eyebrow over. This is what happens when you indulge creepy evangelical extreme behaviors with “both sides” BS for 50 years.

I wish you could get stripped down arcade versions of recent gen fighting games with just the “fight 8 opponents” part and some simple couch/online vs stuff. No rankings or fancy pants special modes or lobbies with titles or avatars.

Tfw you’re a Disney Channel actor and an adult does something stupid

Mick Garris is the Chris Claremont of horror in the sense that he absolutely cannot resist inserting a clever (to him) bit he came up with, even if it makes no sense and is detrimental to the work as a whole.

Pet Peeve: When some retrogaming news venue hypes a "COOL NEW GAME-CHANGING EMULATOR" that is in a promising early state but lacks the stability and compatibility of the current go-to emulator for a given platform. Just say "Hey, this is looking promising, but still needs a bit of work."

1998.

June 20, 1985 television listings. Pick your poison...

The May 6, 1994 episode of Late Night: John Wayne Bobbitt jokes, John Goodman promoting The Flintstones, Rob Lowe promoting The Stand miniseries, Shonen Knife performing, a commercial announcing Demolition Man is now available on videocassette.

Happy Hex Day to those who celebrate! (Hex #1 on sale date: June 20, 1985)

Still irked BlazBlue Cross Tag Battle lacked a basic arcade mode. Saw dipshits say it would've been "too complicated" -- which is why SNK and Capcom managed to make it work in the mid-1990s, apparently.

That's $2750 in present day USD. By comparison, my current laptop has a upper limit 4.0 GIGAHERTZ processor and cost me, with aftermarket upgrades, just shy of a grand in December 2024.

Done with clowns who will use every opportunity to whine about how miserable grade school was for them, but have chosen to inject grade school bullshit into every social interaction. Your inability to evolve is not my problem.

May the projections based on unrealistic expectations be with you!

new art! RSPinUpChampionEdition - Quiet (Metal Gear Solid V: The Phantom Pain)

"fragrant characters?" I did not realize Tea with Mussolini was a sequel to Polyester!

Oh yeah. Another Late Night and Friday Night with original commercials — this time from the Friday before The Phantom Menace premiere in May 1999. The hype, it is strong with this one.

COMBAT COSMIC CREEPAZOIDS WITH THE X-MEN! THEY'RE A STRAIGHT-SHOOTING STRIKE FORCE! (2001)

The thing about Jean Grey that has gotten lost over the decades is that she was the only one of Xavier's students who'd achieved his goal for them -- she mastered her powers and confidently moved on with her life!

if I wanted to see every inane post that fascist motherfucker makes, I'd start a Truth Social account but I don't need to because everyone here feels compelled to dunk on his garbage, apparently

Yesterday, I went into the bathroom and found water all over the floor and the toilet seat. Cleaned it up and went to complain about the Kid to Maura, only to stumble across a fugitive sopping wet Henri by the stairs. Stupid little doofus.

starting to see "elected Dems aren't doing anything" being used as a fundraising grift and the folks doing that shit deserve a fresh circle of hell to inhabit not that Dem leadership is adequate, but if you use outright lies to pump up that angle for your own purposes, you are also the enemy

I think of this scene -- from the perspective of the desk clerk -- every time the media repeats another "two weeks" claim from that fucking guy without mentioning how that's his default dodge for doing nothing.

I’m all for seeing retrogames get a current platform rerelease, but there’s a growing trend towards overpriced laziness. Capcom putting 5 straight arcade ports in a comp at least offers value for money. Dumping Final Zone as is, though? Could’ve at least tossed in the TG-CD sequel, ffs.
