So I'm taking the plunge and ordering some PC parts over Black Friday.
If you appreciate what @startmenu.bsky.social has done over the years, like @rewinder.co.uk/my freelance work, or thought I didn't sound like an idiot on Game Mess Mornings, now would be a great time to show your appreciation.

imagine how much better a generation of men would be if their go to detective character was not sherlock or house and was instead benoit blanc. instead of sarcastic debate bros we could’ve gotten millions of silly little guys.

my kotaku anniversary is coming up, and we spent this morning talking about some of the batshit things that went down while we were under g/o media. if that company didn't deserve to never have its name spoken again, i'd say a documentary on the fucked up shit that happened there would go hard.

while updating this i remembered moana 2, a film that was made from a disney+ series, made a billion dollars, and i couldn't sing a song from it if you put a gun to my head. wild that a sequel to such a good movie made more money than god and has had no cultural footprint.
