I love @ocremix.org !
I'll note that "the last" is at least stretched by one website, because @ocremix.org has been around since 1999 and it just as functional now as it has ever been -- over five thousand pieces of music posted in support of the site's mission to "promote video game music as an art form."
wikipedia turns 25 today! the last unenshittified major website! backbone of online info! triumph of humanity! powered by urge of unpaid randos to correct each other! somehow mostly reliable! "good thing wikipedia works in practice, because it sure doesn't work in theory" - old wiki adage

Annual reminder that you can just leave a one word Steam review and make an indie developer's day.

On top of everything else, there are possibly 3 or more monkeys loose in a North St Louis neighborhood but because people have turned them into a meme the health dept is ending the search because they have wasted too much time following false leads from ai slop.

I have like 3 projects I want to start on but I have absolutely no drive or energy to do so lately... I just stare at the empty screen and can't do anything.

What an awful day...

After 10 hours in Expedition 33 I'm uninstalling. I have never been more infuriated by a game in my life. Not even Demon Souls. I have had to re-try every single fight more than once. I can't parry or dodge with any reliability at all. I'm not engaged with the story at all. Everybody else loves it.

How the hell does anybody even stand this game!?!!;? The most infuriatingly bad combat system I've ever played the most eye rollingly cliched story so far boring characters visual style is just "throw a bunch of crap everywhere" mechanics are overly complex I can't believe I wasted $60 on this 🗑️🗑️🗑️🗑️

The government is owned and run by the rich, the corporations, the billionaire religious zealots, and all the foreign governments (also owned by their 'investors') dangling money in front of our corrupt 'leaders'. They are laughing at everyone else. There is no fixing it. Nothing will change.

I am so sick of the human race. I'm sick of watching smug entitled idiots in power bold faced lie and make stuff up to get whatever they want and it WORKS and they never get held accountable or even seem to register any criticism & WAY too many people are still cheering about it!?!?!?!?!?!?!!?

Looking Back:
13 years ago, in 2012, my 8 best friends & I tried to start our own Let's Play channel.
We released almost 150 episodes + had recorded TONS more footage that never got edited...
It was a lot of fun & WORK
I haven't talked to any of them in years at this point

I watched ALL of Pluribus. I put it off but y'all were right: it's fantastic!
I've never identified with a character from any story nearly as much as I did with Carol... and if you treat the 'weirdos' as a metaphor for just other people its spooky how much it resonated with me personally...

I was excited for Prime 4. I really enjoyed 3 and the rest of the series as well.
I don't think I made it 1/2 way through and I already fell off completely.
It was slow, boring, the puzzles were rudimentary at best, the 'open world' was dumb, and I hate ppl interrupting to tell me what to do.

These 'live-action series based on video games' completely miss the mark for me. I haven't watched any of them, and probably won't watch any until they do one that is based on something that actually has a good story...
None of these are games I can even stand to play let alone want to watch...
