First pottery class done! Never done this before but I really enjoyed it and my instructor was impressed by my first attempts. I picked it up pretty quickly and made what I wanted (a yunomi 湯のみ) after my third attempt. It was then cut in half to better understand the process 😅
Matthew Lillard out here aging gracefully and doing good things with his life.
Meanwhile Quentin Tarantino looks, sounds and acts like a miserable racist grandma at a Christmas party.

I caught an ice-type #Metroid. What do I do with it?

I can’t believe that I tripped, fell, landed in the #NintendoStore and accidentally bought all the #Metroid merch.

I’m so clumsy sometimes! 🤪

Honestly the joke tells itself.
I don't even know how to joke about this

I never used to be like this. I never used to take joy in seeing corporations fail and stock prices plummet.

WTF is wrong with me!? I should've been like this WAY sooner. This feels GREAT!
Duolingo announced it was going “AI-first” just over six months ago. Since then its stock is down 64%.

Absolutely in LOVE with the UI/PDA system in @routinegame.bsky.social. For most of the game, you're just in it - pure diegesis.
Inspecting and interacting with the C.A.T. feels mechanically clunky in all the best ways and the PDA? *chefkiss* Love that its projection mapped on surfaces.

Look, I know many people still have an issue with it, but we're pretty much at the point where pirating everything really is the best answer.
Netflix confirms it will acquire Warner Bros., including its film and television studios, HBO Max and HBO, for about $82.7 billion, after separation of Discovery Global (which is expected to be completed in Q3 2026).

Went to KFC earlier and ended up getting the #MonsterHunterWilds promo. Got a free sticker sheet and in-game items.

Whenever someone whines about needing a male choice when the game predominantly features a woman, just slap together a male model but make them sickly-thin, with 30% the stamina, 50% the speed and 50% the hit points of the original protag.
In other words, more relatable to these male "gamers".
Us: here's an awesome new mystery survival game with giant mechas battling it out in a post-apocalyptic world rendered with Unreal Engine 5!!

Studio execs killed off Wheel of Time at its absolute PEAK, yet they just keep churning this shit out.

Netflix just paying a lot of money to eventually kill off entire backlogs of entertainment from the last century.
Netflix has made the highest bid to buy Warner Bros so far.
