The retcon that the Clone troopers carried Order 66 because they had brain-control chips really strikes me as emblematic of why the Prequels fail: This should be the story of the Jedi and Republic embracing an industrialized mass-murder machine out of expediency, and where that inevitably leads.

I got hired by Namco to build out the lore of Dig Dug, but I got fired when I suggested that he should have an older brother named Big Doug

My biggest frustration with AEW right now is how they've structured #ROH. It shouldn't be a collection of dark matches filmed across multiple Dynamite and Collision tapings, it needs to be it's own dignified show. With the 2006 ROH ring canvas and a big fight feel production. A litmus test of a show

I feel so out of sync with video game fans at large because, while I love most classic gta, I just do not give a shit about gta 6

I heard Stephen A. Smith tell CNN yesterday that "people are afraid they're going to lose their job for messing up a pronoun" and it really amazes me how many people don't realize they are awash in intentional propaganda designed to make them afraid of the wrong things and angry at the wrong people

The convo being framed around work ethic and age is really, really funny when the men’s division is dominated by 40+ year olds and a lot of them are part-timers

I have bad sensitivity to certain sounds to the point where so long exposure to them will have me wanting to cry and claw my ears off and the response from my immediate family is basically “fuck off you’re imagining it”

And Tony Khan, the President and CEO of AEW, loudly doubled down on trans rights and human rights when I asked him about state athletic commissions not allowing transgender wrestlers in their state & fining wrestling companies if they did not comply. Quote in full, with context, here:

Another underrated bit from last night was that between two ROH matches the crowd kept excitedly waving and saying “Hi Bryce!!!” to Remsburg once CB e came out. In response to a fan repeatedly saying “I love you Bryce” he responded with “I’m a married man”

Every. single. woman. I know in real life. has experienced multiple instances of sexual assault/sexual harassment from men. Including myself. Miss me with the “it’s so hard being a young man right now because people don’t like men” shit.

I doubt it was entirely her intention, but after WWE fired almost all of their LGBTQ wrestlers, she proudly asserts her queer identity and it hits hard #AEWCollision #AEW

So, this summer we'll be publishing a 3-part deep dive into Sega's pinball history. It's an area not well documented. Part 1 (Sega Japan in the '70s) is done and is 4500 words, and I'm working on part 2 (Spain) now. Part 3 (Sega Pinball 1994-1999) should be done this month. I hope you all enjoy it!

The less expensive games there are in the world the better is my take. Everyone deserves the opportunity to play an original copy of a game on its intended hardware. Everyone also deserves to play a game on whatever newer hardware they want to. Keeping things accessible is inarguably good to me

I haven’t watched the tv recording back yet did y’all see Dax Harwood telling Danny he’s a virgin and he’s gonna get STD’s or was that just for the live audience? #AEWCollision
