I host and edit one podcast and co-host another one for @gamepodular.com. I also do the YouTube, Twitch, and some back-end stuff. I'm always down to talk about games (or music, or wrestling).
I sound like an American but I promise I'm Dutch.

You know, despite all of the discourse and dogshit ways it's been deployed, I can't actually hate John Lennon's "Imagine". It's a hippie anthem asking "wouldn't it be good if people were just nice to each other?"
It's not like, actionable praxis or anything but it doesn't have to be.

Listening to the family year-end playlist is so funny because the most boring song I've ever heard will come up, and I'll check what it is and it's by Pink Floyd

If anything, it’s worse that you’re using it for shit you can easily do yourselves and not seeing any productivity gains for. You’re helping train mass surveillance tools so you can generate a harder to find Lorem Ipsum? For THAT? Fuck you.

Look man I don’t think the people being poisoned by data centers really care if you remove the generated assets before shipping, and I don’t really care if you “only” use the machine that stole my shit and convinced teens to off themselves for internal PowerPoints.
Cool motive. Still bullshit tho.

The games industry brings in 300 billion dollars a year. The guy who made DOOM gets his projects canceled, the guy who made Katamari Damacy is broke, everyone in your feed is begging for a job and there are 50 new games coming out on Steam every day all going towards buying Gabe Newell's next yacht
Keita Takahashi (Katamari, Wattam, Noby Noby Boy) has moved back to Japan, and says he may be forced to quit the games industry due to To a T underperforming.
He also says he'd love to work on Katamari again, and for someone to invest in his studio.

Look. Prog rock is not entirely foreign to me. I like a couple of Yes songs, and I've even seen them live in concert once. But I don't know how anyone regularly listens to this genre. There's so much going on that I find it exhausting to listen to.

I might be getting into modern emo a little bit. I'm checking out "Where The Heart Is" by Sweet Pill and I'm really digging what I hear

Just so I'm clear on this, computer memory has tripled in price because a bunch of it that hasn't been produced yet has been ordered to populate GPUs that aren't installed in data centers that aren't built yet in order to service a demand that doesn't exist to make profits that don't happen.

when a poor person uses food stamps for a steak or homeless person spends $5 on a beer, it’s seen as proof that all poor people are so bad with money that they shouldn’t be given any, ever, for any reason. $77 billion out the window, and zuck’s legacy as a safe government contract bet is secure.
Mark Zuckerberg’s gamble on the "Metaverse" has lost his company more than $77 billion.

One of the funniest and coolest things about Sleepy Hollow is how basically every famous figure from American history was actually involved in the supernatural.
This episode revealed that Uncle Sam, Sacagawea, Davy Crockett, and Paul Jennings were a secret team of monster hunters. It's so sick.

That's a wrap on the season of Monster of the Week I was running. It went super well! The finale was suitably epic and tense.
I worked up a legit sweat from a combination of standing desk and tension.
I'm so proud of what we did in that game. I think it's the best game I've ever run.
