The wealthy have become very easy to sell to. Disposable cash they dont think about and a tailored algorithm and wide variety of available designer drugs.
Do some ketamine, go on an amazon binge and book a holiday to Greece to see a band you barely like cause fuck it, world is burning and I want a good time.
Honestly we just need to move on and start doing our own things and try to get into a place of power to maybe shore up some of the wealth hoarding.
Man, I remember when the DS was the thinking person’s console of choice. Oh the art you could draw on it and send to others. Oh the traces of goatee.
Fun being key here, not just a slideshow of colored images.
Most people respond to tell you how very wrong you are
Oh, how very wrong you are.

Yeah, the best peeling trick I know is a mason jar with a little water in it and you just shake the egg around like a bartender with a sleeping child next to them.
Riskier with soft boiled eggs though.
Sure, but you need someone who is inspired by it to have played it to be so. Dont get me wrong I also agree with things existing for the sake of it but thats also up to someone inspired enough.
I think its on the individual to not be responsible to spread themselves out but to actually interact with their niche and keep it alive, I want the games I engage with to be engaged with so that its felt.
I dont think art needs my support as much as people do.
I just type random words into the search bar and see what comes back, the mystery key bundles gave me frog detective 1 to many times.
But now I’m playing a fun gnome game so I am pretty happy with my method.
So like UFO 50? We just need basically demo jams in a packaged form factor
The problem is “passive”. Its not helpful to a game developer to not play their games cause then no one engages with their art. I wouldnt want to pay for a musician I dont listen to.
We do need a way to discover stuff easier. That was one of the joys of the early internet compared to now. But if you want to support indie devs, follow them or find smaller stuff and support it. Ignore the algorithms, decide what you want and look for it. Life isn’t passive.
He was born with power. Rich parents that owned swaths of land in NYC that gifted a billion dollars worth of assets.
He was corrupted by a lack of love and a surplus of wealth and no repercussions in his life. We really need to stop letting wealthy people get so detached from the human condition. We let people like Ethan Couch argue his wealth doesnt let him understand killing 4 people and then give then probation as if we agree.
Money is power, and its our favorite flavor of corruption.
Fun fact! As long as the soap inside the dispenser works as it should it literally doesnt matter if it is touch or how covered in germs it is.
It all started when I was nary a small child being raised by a welcoming family of porcupines…
Darn funny clips making us feel bad about their own extinction! They are like cats, weaponizing humans to make us care for them.
I dont like those little freaks.
They have an extra thumb to make eating bamboo easier yet their stomach can still barely get any nutrients from it from being… You know, a bear, that should eat meat. But sure grow a second thumb first.
Their mating window is a weekend a year and they dont even like each other enough to be around when it happens. And their pregnancy will last however long it feels like, until they plop out such a small creature it basically has a coin flip of dying no matter what.
And all of that… And they are still a bear! Like maul you and everyone else around you for fun, bear! We like this?
Edit : yes I finished typing this and looked back up at the video of a panda doing silly flips and yet my rage at their existence persists.
Oh oh, I have had this problem and I have favorites!
So for music, MusicBee, it has a great tagging system and music organization for free. I just run it in the same library and have a folder for unorganized files I add new stuff to.
For movies and TV shows, I know there is free options but I hate them. I dont know, I am a dumb dumb I guess but I can’t get most to work for me. Filebot, so good, I will parade for filebot it is so good. I know it is paid but I paid for it twice. It can even keep the file linked so you can keep a torrent running and will do so much so simply. It kind of works for music but not really but movies and TV its like a wizard.
Books… I do them by hand. Man thats still a thorn but its clean.
Meh, I’m poor and have no assets at all. Guess I just die.
I don’t know… With all the puppets he is making with them I am thinking Elon has A LOT of socks.

This is basically the pinnacle of game design to me. It is a collect-a-thon of course, but the gems always sparkle no matter how far you are from them so that if you are in line of sight you will know that they are there making it easy to find them.
Far off sections of the map are basically always reachable and rewards you for trying to get there and utilizing uncommon paths through the map.
When you beat the game to 100% it rewards you with extra stuff and a little more game to show it had fun being made as much as you hopefully did playing it.
All with a fun story that wraps it up and doesnt require anything special to jump in. I want to see games that have thoughtful level design and world building while using the game mechanics in fun ways. The fact that you jump into levels directly and the loading screen is akin to you actually flying to the world is all engrossing to the world.
Yeah that is fair. The most accessible library in the world has basically been burned down so scraps of it can be sold back out.
Or do as I do and buy random games for cheap. I’m on like hour 4 of Tim-Tim 2; The Almighty Gnome, that I got for like 50 cents.
Honestly a pretty good time.
