What sort of footwear do people wear in the Star Trek universe? Obviously you're wearing some sort of shoe on Deep Space Nine, but are the crew of the Enterprise going barefoot? Not in their workplace. Slippers? Do sneakers still exist in the 24th century?

a major issue with video games is that they produce a bunch of people who consider themselves brain geniuses for solving problems that were designed to be solvable. as a remedy, we should be making more games that are actively and irreconcilably hostile to the player. thank you

this is a good post and "decadence" is a good way to think about a lot of things. true decadence is, eg, thinking you could let an insurrection go unpunished and the country would just keep chugging along nbd

video games aren't political! your switch 2 costs a suspicious amount of money due to recent bizarre developments in international politics

Don't agree with the $80 Mario Kart cope I'm seeing. "Games have been undervalued for a while", "Cartridges used to cost that much", don't do this to yourself.

I love how episodes of Star Trek TNG are "there's a crazy scientific phenomenon happening, what happens if we explore it" and in TOS, episodes are "what if there was a weird guy"

Cheap stuff is the only thing America has going for it!!! That's it! Everything sucks total ass, but at least we had the dollar menu! That was the promise - the spiritual sacrifice we made in exchange for not being able to afford a house, healthcare or retirement. Now we won't even have that?

I hope I'm not the only one comforted by the idea that restaurants and businesses from their childhood hometown are still around. Yeah, that one pizza buffet was really shitty, but it's still around! I'm so happy for them!

Reasonably good Nintendo Direct. Prime 4 looks fun, crazy that Patapon is still alive, and many other unexpected games. I can't get too bent out of shape about not seeing XYZ. It's really good for a console to have genre/title variety! Way more preferable to "No first party Sony releases in 2024"

Stuff like this is perfect because it shows how utterly devoid of creativity genAI evangelists are. Great you recreated a photo that already exists in a drawing style that only has currency because of who you're stealing it from giving the world something with absolutely no value or meaning.

Marvel has one button labeled Bring Back Character From Twenty Years Ago and for years, they've smashed it with all their might. They're gonna keep smashing that motherfucking button well into the future. That's not a judgment call on my part, they're just extrapolating market forces

really embarrassing stuff. I say this as a huge fan of the band: they haven't had a truly great single since 2013 a lot of their recent tunes sound like this (structurally, not in subject matter) - not sure they have it in them anymore to create a song as musically interesting as One Week

My senior year of college, I was an RA in a freshman dorm. One of the guys on my hall fancied himself an amateur rapper. He wasn't very good, and he passed out his mixtape to everyone on the hall, including the janitorial staff. He did not make it big, and last I checked, was working as a realtor.

My college junior year, a guy on my dorm's floor spent a week pissing in a giant water jug (I never figured out why). After a few days, when it was full, he opened it to show us how it had turned to ammonia. He gave it a whiff and immediately threw up all over his dorm room carpet

It doesn't explain everything but if you want to know one big reason we're in the situation we're in, it's that for decades our government has absolutely refused to hold any rich or powerful people responsible for anything no matter how damaging, disruptive, or blatantly illegal
