Celebrating the Xbox 360's 20th anniversary on LGR!

Opening a boxed and unused Xbox 360! They released it two decades ago now, so this was the perfect time to unbox a 60GB Pro model, set it up, enjoy the Blades, and play some games. While HOPEFULLY avoiding red rings. Jump in!

Please keep putting pressure on PayPal. Stories like this are becoming more and more common. Artists don’t deserve to lose their source of income over payment processors being puritanical/anti-small business.
I'm devastated, if I don't find an alternative that works with argentinians I'm contemplating the worst, I can't do regular jobs, art was my job for around 15 years
I don't do nsfw even when people insist me to
my life was already crumbling and now I don't know what to do

Most folks don't know this, but many Native Americans don't "celebrate" Thanksgiving the way the rest of the country does.

For us, it's a National Day of Mourning. It's a time to honor our ancestors, remember the truth of what happened on this land, and hold space for all the lives, cultures ...

I get that you feel embarrassed to talk about porn but if you come at it from "they're censoring PG games and ASMR" maybe you can like... get over yourself?

this is hurting so many people and it's just going to keep getting worse?
would be really cool of any indie journalists who want to like.... talk about this massive form of censorship since it's a byproduct of the fascism we are all dealing with?
A couple times I see people say “UGH I wish I didn’t have to keep Ana unblocked, but she’s the only source I have on paypros censorship stuff…” and honestly I am really sympathetic to that kind of person

I think it is a major failing of the contemporary journalism industry that people feel like

Please forgive the thinly veiled sales pitch, but I'm TRULY thankful at the incredibly warm reception "Drogune: Fortune's Lap" has received. We're near 300 copies sold! (physical+digital). That's WILD!

It's an 80pg B&W OGN by me & @adambrycethomas.bsky.social. Please check it out!

Lots of people sharing this clip because it's funny and cathartic but I also genuinely believe it's important.

We have to win the narrative battle between "I live in a corrupt society and that's just how it is" and "I live in a corrupt society and we are going to defeat and humiliate these ghouls."
Good morning to Brazilian reporter Manuela Borges, who’s been waiting eleven years for this petty moment. ❤️ 🇧🇷

trans people seem to be freely entering and leaving womanhood and that really pisses off the people who want womanhood to be a cage

Letting people just 'believe' they were cool progressive thinkers for being weird about boobs for almost a decade was seriously a bad thing to do.

if you go to /r/games people are acting like this, too, is porn - defending this shit as highbrow and Not Like The Other Games is also doomed from the other end as anti-art motherfuckers confuse their discomfort for another person's arousal

In Morrow County, healthy adults were coming down with unexplained medical conditions, including diseases that usually afflicted the elderly.

In a survey of 30 homes, at least 25 miscarriages and a half dozen people living with one kidney were reported.

Every time I hear anything about Steam's content policies, the more inconsistent and baffling they seem. What does "content [...] intended to shock or disgust" mean and who decides when it applies? Doesn't that describe virtually all horror games? Should Resident Evil 7 be banned from Steam?
Our upcoming game HORSES was preemptively banned from Steam, with no path to appeal. The game will still launch next week on December 2nd and will be available on EGS, GOG, Humble, and Itch for $4.99. Here is a detailed FAQ covering what happened: horses.wtf/BannedFromSt...

Glad to have a go-to, peer reviewed article to point to now which backs up the vague ramblings about Real Consciousness I go off on whenever LLMs come up in conversation.

the ruleset seems to genuinely just be, "there's only a handful of people ruling what gets allowed or doesn't, and if they decide it doesn't, no matter how much you appeal to the fact they're being hypocritical, you're banned, because how dare you talk back at all".

This is your sign btw that you should call Mastercard
Spoke to my source familiar with internal workings at Mastercard. The holiday call campaign re payment processor censorship is working, there is a lot of pressure being felt from your calls. This is resulting in increased response times at a core moment for Mastercard due to the holiday season
