The cruelty is the point. They want you to panic. They want you to give up. They want you dead. Don’t let them win. You have to live. Better days can only come if you’re still here.

I mean, literally, the answer to this is "I am federally prohibited from telling you anything about my students without a subpoena or judicial warrant; if you have a subpoena or judicial warrant, please submit it to [Legal Officer/Office] to ensure it is in compliance with all relevant federal laws"

Don’t like how the British pronounce yogurt. Feel like we’ve let that one slide for too long.

I got a copy of Space Harrier for 32X from ebay, inside the box was one of these fliers: www.ebay.com/itm/35600257... The flyer has 1991 on it, would they have still be putting these in new 32X games in 1994? Seems like a weird move to advertise the TV Tuner (pending FCC approval!) as late as 1994.

Occasional reminder that whenever you say "sparks joy" you are not quoting Marie Kondo. You are quoting her translator, Cathy Hirano. She invented "sparks joy" out of whole cloth. What Marie Kondo says is "This makes my heart go pitter pat."

Friday night marketplace haul! A little annoyed that the PS1 copy of Marvel Super Heroes Vs. Street Fighter in the ad wasn't available because 'my brother wanted that one' 😓 That would have made it a crazy good deal, but it was still a nice price for some great games 😎

In mourning for David Lynch. Never forget. In sequel season of Twin Peaks he plays an FBI boss who says to agents who disapprove of trans agent Denise 'Fix your hearts or die'

Eraserhead is a rite of passage many encounter in late high school or first year, pitched to them as a 'fucked up movie,' rental store contraband, basement watched deep in the night, only to haunt them for the rest of their lives like a shadow in ways they won't fully comprehend for decades

My new aerial embroidery experiment! I had some little circuit boards I thought resembled buildings and paths and added my stitches and trees in the gaps... and I had to add a car park! I imagine it to be a business park or factory grounds. What do you think? I don't usually do mixed media 😊

At Christmas my parents reunited me with two of these Zelda bath towels from my childhood. They're neat, and I'm not looking to sell them or anything, but I'm a grown-ass man, what am I supposed to do with these 😅

"Let's hope it will one day exist." In Nintendo Power issue 100 from September 1997, one Metroid fan unleashes a fervent wish for Metroid 64 - and a pretty cool piece of fan art featuring Samus.

A video game this good should not exist on an 8-bit system. And yet it does. It is an incredible port of Street Fighter II on PC Engine.
