it's funny to me that Full Metal Schoolgirl, a silly D3 Publisher budget action game, is one of the only media in recent years that I've seen use zombies as an allegory for being enslaved even after death as it was in Haitian folklore rather than the directionless killers of most modern zombie media

The manual for Wario Blast: Featuring Bomberman shows an extremely low level of effort regarding Wario illustrations. Despite Bomberman receiving various different drawings, only one artwork of Wario is used, which is repeated 19 times without any alterations.

Are you YES AI or NO AI? Vote now.
Big Tech doesn't care if you want AI or not. They should.

Call your reps, tell them to PROTECT section 230, and do not vote to repeal it. If it is removed, it will be the end of the free speech on the internet
Posted by Sen Graham on Twitter, calling for a week in February “dedicated to advancing legislation that protects children from online threats and tackling the Section 230 crisis once and for all.” 10% of the senate sponsors the S230 repeal bill
