This captures the strangeness of our times better than any well crafted think piece.

Eight years ago, I published my first novel, "Advent of the Roar."

A fantasy adventure about what happens centuries after The Last War. A story with monsters and conspiracy and a language all its own.

Shadow of the Colossus Slowthrough - YouTube A tale of obsession and desecration disguised as love and rebellion. What is a Slowthrough? ​I imagine it as Slow TV. Its spirit wants to slow down the chaos...

Recently released the final episodes of my 16 part #slowthrough of Shadow of the Colossus.

Having never played before, I found the game to be a beautiful, poetic work. A story about relationships, even between player and game.

A shame about #BluepointGames. They they did amazing work here.

Jerry Lawson, the inventor of the video game cartridge.

Jerry Lawson, the inventor of the video game cartridge.

This is Jerry Lawson. He invented the video game cartridge for the Fairchild Channel F system. Because of his invention, many consoles had cartridges and CD formats and would become the norm.

The Atari 2600, NES, Genesis, and many consoles wouldn't exist without him.

Happy Black History Month.

This is all stupid bullshit but I remain pretty disgusted at how things like marriage and having children are treated like Xbox achievements instead of actually loving and caring for someone else. Yeah I’m going to work 70 hours a week but definitely need a spouse, her name is Beth or something idk

Mubashir and his family came to the United States as refugees from Ethiopia when he was a child, and they all became naturalized citizens in 2019.

Despite being a U.S. citizen, Mubashir was targeted by ICE, assaulted, and detained. Listen to his story:

Photograph from 1911 taken by Herbert Ponting whilst with Scott's Antarctic Expedition

The monochrome photo is taken from within a cave. The walls of the cave are made of ice. The cave entrance is in the mid distance with two figures standing looking out towards a distant ship. Between them and the ship there is first a 'beach' of ice before the sea itself. The ship could be up to 800 metres away

What makes the photo so special is that where the figures are at the cave entrance there is a band of very white snow and ice (contrasting with the comparatively dark inside of the cave) that creates a stark framework in which the men and the ship are captured. It is made even more dramatic by the fact that the cave entrance is at least 30 metres high and is in the shape of a distorted elipse with the tail sloping off to the right at the top of the elipse

The photo being in monochrome in a largely white environment makes the photographers skill all the more laudable

This photo was taken in 1911 using glass plate technology by Herbert Ponting who was part of Scott's Antarctic expedition,

The composition and detail are exquisite with the band of white snow/ice creating a perfect frame around the two people and the ship in the distance

Iconic imo

Report: Migrant's death at Fort Bliss detention center likely ruled homicide The death of a migrant man who died inside Camp East Montana at Fort Bliss earlier this month will likely be ruled a homicide, according to The Washington Post.

If only they were trained in de-escalation.
