Sonder is a comic about how each choice you make ripples beyond time and space.
If you're into JRPGs, isekais, ensemble casts, weird sci-fi, coming-of-age stories, doomed romances, and/or complex family drama, I think Sonder might have something for you.

I've always held good thoughts about Penn Jillette. I've seen him evolve his stance on things repeatedly over the years and correct the record anytime he's been wrong. There were many episodes of Bullshit he was fact-checked on, and he followed up.
Happy to see it.

Good on Penn Jillette. Having to come to terms with your entire political identity and philosophy being wrong is not easy and most people could never do it.

One thing I love so much about Chrono Trigger is that it's not quite DQ and it's not quite Final Fantasy. It's got the DNA of both, and along with the influence of some other collaborators, it sort of transcends both of its parents in becoming something wholly new.

I worked at Sport Chek, multiple grocery store departments, and spent many years at Costco during College.
Sport Chek was by far the worst, most vapid place I've ever worked.

The low-angel Frieren meme is genuinely inspiring. Someone braver than the troops shares a picture they know turned out weird. Thousands start sharing their own art, offering advice and laughing together at something that is genuinely hard.

I had a friend in elementary school. We used to "play" Mega Man, pretend we were bosses and all that.
One day, I was at his house, and he was like, "We're going to meet this guy who has Mega Man X!"
My kid brain thought that sounded like the coolest shit ever.
Cue that guitar shredding title screen.

Maybe, if you have to keep having this conversation, people just don't fucking want to pay for Clanker slop.
So stop trying to cut corners and just making fucking video games. Like has been done for an eternity.
If games stopped needed to make "ALL THE MONEY" we'd have a much healthier industry.
