As someone who spends a lot time thinking about the values I want to teach my kid (besides PLEASE DON’T EAT DIRT), the thing I keep coming back to is this: I want him to believe that the strongest, bravest thing he can do is give a shit about other people—especially ones who aren’t like him at all.

what do you think would happen if someone elected to political office turned out to be an idiot

My meanest video game feeling right now is that pretty much all upcoming sword-slash action games look the same and that's a real problem because that "same" is also ugly.

It’s the same picture

The progress of gaming technology really is incredible. Toxic kids around the world can call me a cunt faster and in higher definition than I ever would have dreamed of 20 years ago.

I guess this year we're supposed to watch the dumbest & most pointlessly cruel Civilization game ever, but irl

Gaming hot take: Items in games should have expiration or best by dates. They should degrade in value over time to keep people from just hoarding them. This would drive a subset of gamers insane and I’m here for it.

Nothing quite stings like uninstalling a huge game you haven't played in 5 years to clear up harddrive space you need, but you might want to play it again at some unspecified future time, you just *MIGHT* 😬

there are people out there saying "keep politics out of video games" and their favourite games will be like Fallout or Metal Gear

I respect any videogame that tells me the world is ending but lets me go fishing

Look. If you play a game on easy...you're gaming. If you play it on hard, you're gaming. The only way that you're not gaming...is if you're actually not gaming👀

As best you can, ignore him.

There were better shows on Netflix when it cost $10 a month

There is a special place in video game hell for games that have waterfalls with no treasure behind them

Who made this 🤣

lmao no, TikTok users are not moving to Bluesky. They would literally rather learn Mandarin than learn how to read a feed of text posts. This is a millennial retirement home.

I can hear this screenshot

I hate when games get too technical. I’m not maxing out crit or speed or whatever. I’m gonna do two things: have more health and be more strong. That’s it.

Are you really a gamer if you don't own at least 30 games you haven't started yet?

How about an indie horror game where nothing is wrong or spooky but you have to pick up the phone and call someone

Fuck. I just remembered the first time I heard about being able to SAVE a game instead of losing all your progress when you switched your console off, and it just blew my mind. What I'm saying is that I am an old.

The scientific method served humanity well for hundreds of years but it was rendered obsolete in 2013 with the discovery of Vibes

Do I love video games? Yes. Am I a terrible video game player? Also yes.

Do you ever just casually walk through a town/city in a video game and just admire it?

Somewhere deep inside the Pentagon a captain puts down the phone and sighs heavily, rubbing tired eyes. He opens PowerPoint to a blank presentation. "Here we go again," he mutters as he types: "Greenland Counterinsurgency: Thawing Hearts and Minds" at the top and "slide 1/3841" at the bottom.

*terrible beatboxing noises* “My name is Mark Z and I’m here to say that i’m letting people use slurs in a different way!”

The Rock just congratulated the audience on paying the highest prices for an arena show in WWE history, and they resoundingly applauded.

I’m almost okay with Hulk Hogan being back on TV if he gets publicly humiliated like that every week. That was incredible. I didn’t give the WWE audience enough credit.

After spending the day playing GTA3, I spent a couple hours in the evening with GTA5 again after not really playing through it for, like, 10 years? It really is an impressive game. The leap in quality between 3 and 5 is gigantic.

nvdia should make chips i can eat, bullshit 3.5 trillion dollar company and they can't even figure out the potato

On the side of the wall at the Golden Globes there’s a studio leaderboard, lest things become too classy

Games that let you pause during cutscenes are the real heroes 😔✊🏻

One more of these, and then one of the worst #Bears seasons of all time is finally, mercifully over.

Possibly the best clap back against ignorant antivaxxers.

Really pleasantly surprised by the New Indiana Jones Game. I'm 5h in and I haven't fired a single bullet. After being really bothered by the murderous rampages of uncharted games, it feels nice. No annoying side characters giving me the answers to puzzles after 30s is nice too.
