I've been testing out adding greenscreen footage into Unreal, but compressing it to look like it's a 90s FMV game

Fell asleep watching Scott the Woz throw a Wii U out of a moving car. Then I dreamed that he proceeded to use that same car to drive into things and inflict actual property damage in another one of those classic Scott the Woz bits.

The Japanese Mario 64 official strategy guide is an incredible thing. "Can we make little hand-made dioramas of all the levels?" "Sure, why the hell not."

A model of the first level from Mario 64.

STOP WRITING TO ME

PLEASE RESPOND IMMEDIATELY

A letter from Gonzo, a villager in Animal Crossing.

"Poor-sport Brian,

Stop writing to me. Letters are nothing but trouble! Do you check your mail every day? If so, send me an answer RIGHT AWAY! Give me a shout sometime.

Insincerely, Gonzo"

LMAO, I didn't expect it to come out so perfectly.

Screenshot from Animal Crossing featuring an interface where the player must draw a face for the character Blanca, a cat with no facial features.

A screenshot from Animal Crossing depicting the character Blanca with a face drawn by the player. The face resembles one commonly made by the character Hitori Gotoh in the anime "Bocchi the Rock!"

In response to the drawing Blanca is saying, "Are you all done? ...I don't know. It kind of seems like you just scribbled something down."

YouTube comments are something else. You have a video explicitly advertised as "teenagers reacting to a thing" and the vast majority of the comments are complaining that they're talking over the thing (reacting to it) and that their opinions have the depth of a teenager's.

Man, having the bathroom window open even with the blinds shut feels like I'm in a porta potty with all the foot traffic outside.

This thing that Moom reposted made me feel at least marginally more sane seeing even my own family members blindly post about him. (full post for more context since quotes are only one level deep)

it's absolutely critical to understand in this moment that people aren't largely reacting to who Charlie Kirk was as a person, but who they knew him as because of what tiny pieces of him got clipped out and stuck in their newsfeeds.

Claire Willett @clairewillett.bsky.social · Sep 13

reposting with alt text because this feels incredibly significant. the right-wing disinfo machine means a lot of the people grieving Charlie Kirk never heard any of the things he said that would have tarnished his brand as Guy Who Just Wants to Have Dialogue Across the Aisle

I thought it looked unusually sluggish compared to 3 but I've only seen a couple streams where the player has been at the beginning of the game and whatever's like 6 hours in so I don't think I've got the whole picture.

Got an ad for BL4 that's just a dude opening a loot box in the game. That's it. That's the whole ad.

Bart Simpson opening a "Where's Waldo?" book to the first page where Waldo is not only clearly visible but another character on the page is pointing directly at him. Bart comments, "Man, he's just not trying anymore."

Various pieces of my life are at last beginning to move. May it lead to me escaping the hell I've created for myself these past couple years. 😬

Putting this right here to remember what I promised this October.

Thanks @dangerlocker.bsky.social!

Same, especially since the only gameplay shown didn't really reveal anything. Dang.

My grasp of the passage of time was lost to the pandemic. My brain swears it's still like 2021 at the latest. 💀

But past that, yes!

I remember you posted something similar back in 2017, so I'll say it again: That's precisely why I'm here. I want the depressing shit in front of me. You elevate voices that need elevation. That shit rules.

I have a reusable bag with a warning label that lists off like 3 different substances you don't want in your room that it claims not to be made of... "in toxic amounts." Very reassuring!

Playing Mario Kart World again and unlocked mirror mode only to be quickly reminded why I put it down to begin with.

I can only watch in horror as my Pianta fella gets his skull caved in by a blue shell while Waluigi is granted a divine favor from the gods in the form of a mushroom.
