Takashi Miike's Audition, but the Discord Chat has no idea where it's going.

Please dispose of your ewaste safely and responsibly.

There are facilities that will strip her for parts and use her skin for recycled 3D Printer Filament.

Discord added "favorite game" lists and other profile stuff but they're missing the key video games! Insane! At least I can suggest that they add it.

Like how streamers say that they're playing "I'm Only Sleeping" when they're zonked out on stream while watching Pokemon reruns.

It is very good that Discord seemingly built their initial game list from games/apps that show up in their activity feed and somehow pulled the box art for Dolphin for the 2600 when everyone is actually running Dolphin the Emulator. I hope they never change it.

is anyone else getting tired of the victorian / middle earth aesthetic discord has been using? guilds were fine but this is a little excessive

discord context menu that lists

"send to the gallows
enroll as royal guard
stop the tomfoolery
behead postehaste
seize this user
inform of a malicious plot"

as available options

There are so many things to be confused by.
The integrated stovetop looks awkward here, what are those things on the cabinets, why is the kitchen carpeted by the adjoining dining room? is not, my sims playing heart is living for the blending-in dishwasher? BUT WHAT IN THE HELL IS THAT SINK?!

As a reminder to people who think talking peacefully to these idiots is going to change them, this incident is what led to the beginning of the end of her career. She lost her cushy orange juice sponsorship contract due to the negative publicity surrounding her as well as her other endorsements

honestly even beyond the existential issue of mobile games being erased when companies get bored, another more local issue is because the west is such an insignificant part of gacha revenue, the last dubbed piece of Final Fantasy side content we got was the Chocobo Racing game

What's the worst game you finished/rolled credits on?

(games media folks, it can't be something you were assigned to review; this has to be something you subjected yourself to of your own free will)

The short version: the Gzdoom team has finally had enough of Graf Zhal's shit (including but not limited to pushing AI code into Gzdoom).

The entire team has packed up and made a new fork of Gzdoom.
