Mickey 17? Expedition 33? How about John 3:16

INTO THE SUN

BIG BARDA I LOVE YOU

Killing all gaming media on the eve of a big console launch and a few months before what will likely be the biggest video game of all time is smart and well thought-out business from people that definitely do not spend all day eating their own shit.

Getting a job in games media seemed almost unattainable when I broke in back in 2005. In the years since, it’s become almost impossible and ultimately inadvisable. I can’t imagine trying to break in today. Independent is pretty much the only option now. Support your favorite creators directly.

Fuck Fandom. Shoot it into the sun for all I care. Then, support Game Mess!!

It's 2023. A dramatic disaster surrounds Worldcon. It's 2024. A dramatic disaster surrounds Worldcon. It's 2025. A dramatic disaster surrounds Worldcon.

10/10

🙂‍↕️ forever and ever amen

When was the last time Worldcon managed to NOT step on the most obvious of rakes? It seems like every year, this convention finds some new way to hemorrhage its goodwill.

The thing with Pedro Pascal is he not only gives a fuck; he knows he's huge enough to spend all day trashing bigots safely because entire franchises are built around him atm. He's no dispensable Gina Carano-tier secondary guy. This also underlines how most famous artists as big as him are cowards.

I'm not even Canadian and I'm just staring at my phone lmao PLEASE

Fuck YEAH Canada!!!

Between you, me, and the trees, I'm a tad bit homesick! So you can imagine how excited I am to see THAT!!

For the record, Wikipedia actually kind of rules at what it does? It has been a great source of cursory information since at least my high school years. If LLMs were even half as reliable as Wikipedia, we'd be having a very different conversation.

Sinners invites a new bold business idea. What if people want to see movies because they like them and not due to a pavlovian response to being 12 years old once!?

Hey, you guys want to see a dead body?

You cannot tell me that pigeons are not just the cutest little guys 😍

Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 believers gonna lose their minds when they wake up lmao

Tomorrow, a certain online mega-retailer launches a book sale, just days before Indie Bookstore Day on 4/26. This is no coincidence; Bookstore Day is one of the largest revenue drivers for indies. Indies need our support to thrive & build community spaces for all...mega-retailers do not.

Oh goddddd, my Star Wars Celebration tickets were for YESTERDAY

My variant for Absolute Wonder Woman 10

Trans rights are human rights They were yesterday, they are today and they will be tomorrow 🏳️‍⚧️✨ #TDOV #TransDayOfVisibility

Lmao I won at the crane game

The Wano arc of One Piece is the natural and justified result of refusing dudes the right to rock. Like?? Oden was just hanging with his homies, being jacked as hell, and they boiled him? Because they wanted to commit oppression? Systemic inequality??

I'm done with doomerism.

Hey, did you know there's an alternative to ChatGPT that makes sense economically and doesn't destroy the environment? It's called English majors and they will happily fix all of your documents for the low price of health insurance and a living wage.

For the afternoon (my timeline) peeps! There's a few more hours on the flash sale, so just hoping we can raise enough to get this piece of equipment (otherwise it's over $500usd - so you can see the rush). Thanks!

Buh byeeeee!!!

Gamers, WOKE KONG
