This is pretty good!🤘🎶 But I'm surprised that it's technical brutal death metal. Why have I always had the impression that Benighted was a black metal band? 🤔

Also, interesting choice to have the official music video feature only the drummer.🤔

This is pretty awesome. "Post-metal" from Greece.🤘 Although this song is a bit more "metal" then many post-metal bands and projects. I don't know what the rest of their stuff is like though. This sounds quite unique and interesting. I like it! 🎶

A key album of my metal journey.🤘 Before it, I was a Metallica kid experimenting with Testament & Pantera, and with Motley Crue & Skid Row not far in the dust behind me. I was in my local, flipping through the CDs one day, and there it was...

Holy shit this looks amazing!🤯 I can't wait to see more. I love the distinct identity Remedy is giving it, b/c Dylan is the viewpoint character.👍 Sean Durrie finally got to play main character (he almost got it in Quantum Break)!🤣

This looks fantastic! 🎮 A new game from Frictional but in the spirit of Soma. So that has me 1,000% sold! Personally, I think Soma is the best game Frictional has ever made.

Just finished Routine.🎮💀 Really enjoyed it!😁 Thought-provoking themes & beautiful liminal spaces filled with dread. 13 years in the making & definitely a stellar (pun kind of intended 😅) achievement and worthy addition to the cerebral sci-fi horror genre.

Really great concert, and such an epic venue and vista! 🤘🏛️🎶 I was lucky enough to see this band in a small venue here in Australia last year. The whole crowd was transfixed. It was like being part of a ritual. It was an incredible gig. 🤘

Looks promising as a concept. 🤔🎮 Ofc, the usual, brainworm-incubating Culture War TM drones are already furious that this warlock is a woman!😮‍💨 But basic research would tell them that in D&D, warlock is a class not defined by gender but by the origin of your powers.🙄

Routine is pretty good.🎮 The atmosphere is excellent, and the visual design of the environments is impeccable. I'm probably about 70% through the game now. Apart from a couple of issues with bad signalling for puzzles and objectives, it's been great so far!😁

That's it. I'm going to spend the remainder of my life creating a time machine so that I can go back in time and tell childhood me to start learning drums so that today, I could drum as well as this guy.🤔

Calibri is "Woke", apparently, b/c it's more readable ... and scalable & versatile, esp. on screens. Rubio's politicisation of a font is obviously pathetic.🙄 But I wonder how much the choice of Times New Roman has to do with MAGA's massive hard on for the Roman Empire.🤔

Astute as always. 👍 But it's unsurprising that Evangelicals are so gung-ho for authoritarianism when for decades, under the guise of "missionary work", they've been lobbying various regimes to enact TERRIBLE oppression against LGBTQ people, girls & women, non-christians etc.😤

Not just 5 yrs of social media activity but ALSO phone number, residential & email address history AND fingerprint, DNA & iris biometrics. Oh & birthdates, birth places and addresses of family members and children.

Lol. "Welcome to the US", huh? Um, fuck off.🧐

This is a very nice upgrade to the game! 🎮 I've been playing this afternoon in portable mode. These screenshots are from that. You can see that the resolution, level of detail and visual fidelity has been very nicely upgraded for Switch 2.😁

Word to the wise, or rather, to people upgrading Skyrim to Switch 2: It's not an "upgrade" per se. It's a new game in your library, so any Switch 1 saves will NOT automatically download. You must manually download them before running the Switch 2 ver. It will prompt you to import. 🎮

Hmm ... 🤔 Who would have thought that a nation that has built itself upon foundational ideologies exemplified by tycoons, moguls, CEOs, oligarchs and mega corporations could end up being such a cruel and dehumanising place for 99% of the people who live in it?🧐

FFS. So basically, we are creating the kind of Internet in which "NetWatch" would need to deploy the "Black Wall".😮‍💨

This is just like what happened with the Torment Nexus, ... from that classic sci-fi novel, "Don't Create the Torment Nexus!" 😤
