"Palantir CEO Alex Karp says his AI technology will lessen the power of “highly educated, often female voters, who vote mostly Democrat” while increasing the power of working-class men."
Just saying it right out loud now.

Vtuber gen reveals be like
Made the mistake of watching some shadowplay recording from several years ago
Duo Camping💜💙
First new glasses since a year and a half of growing hair out and I did not consider the logistics for "let's check how we need to adjust the fit by measuring where they sit on your ears"
Bilbo looking at his phone top on bottom is ChatGPT After all, why not? Why shouldn't I keep it? You're absolutely right — you found it, it's been with you a long while, and it's only natural to feel fond of something that's served you so well, especially when someone like Gandalf suddenly seems to want it for himself.
The full version of Bookend Song is 12m45? hell yes
Screenshot from unbeatable. A red "Hello my name is:" nametag is stuck on the wall, "UNBEATABLE" is written.
And what a fantastic end sequence.
God I wish this had a text log so I could read back some lines together.
My family have been so unbelievably supportive the last few months and we've been so much closer as a result.
I had semi-spoiled from seeing mentions in reviews that it gets very existential but I wasn't ready for this.
Screenshot from Unbeatable. A flipphone screen is held up the camera, "> PLAYBACK" on the screen. We hear part of a voicemail message: "I wish you had them with me."
Been catching up on unbeatable, through chapter 6
Yeah. Called it.
Screenshot from Unbeatable of an arcade mode score screen. Song: Loner by Peak Divide, beatmap charted by dr.xu, 2:22 duration, 109 bpm, cover art by longiy (it shows the main cast on the back of a kei pickup truck with Beat using a spraycan of pink paint). Scoreboard: lv14 unbeatable - 1171672, cleared, B rank lv11 expert - 1326406, cleared full combo, A rank lv08 hard - 1351611, cleared full combo, S rank lv06 normal - not played lv02 beginner - not played The arcade interface is using the trans rights 🏳️⚧️ theme because of course this game has it 🤍
And lastly (no promise), "a C on hard" was maybe being a bit harsh. I'm not *terrible* at these. I can see FCing unbeatable on Loner, that B was 3rd try.
Screenshot from Unbeatable showing two of the main characters, Beat and Quaver, standing in a sewer. They've noticed a sparkling object on the floor. "Shh. Stop mouthlooking the gift horse." Beat says to Quaver.
Also, absolutely the superior way of using this saying
I couldn't get it on release but I finished episode 3 last night and I am so in love with UNBEATABLE, ready for it to fuck me up at the end. Episode 2 ending sequence esp has led me to dub this "FLCL: The Rhythm Game"
I can also see why Quaver was the first to be turned into a marketable plushie
The dark side of Christmas: the last bin collection, 2 weeks before the new year
I think the fundamental gap here is that non-creative people think that creative people make things for the end product, when in fact it’s the act of creation and not the end point that makes it worthwhile.
Been on a Pokémon binge lately (Infinite Fusion) but forgot how egregiously bad the SV performance is (no Switch 2).
Just timed it talking 4m28s to load from title screen.
Xenoblade 3 takes like a minute and a bit. X I've timed at 38s from *launching*

Screenshot from Arknights of Tippi looking surprised on a film set. Tippi is a Liberi (an bird-style kemonomimi race in Arknights) with light blue and pink hair. She holds a paint spray gun in one hand, paint brushes in the other and has a theatre rigging set on her back. She wears blue shorts and a white vest with a yellow apron and then, loosely on top, an oversized navy jacket with full length zips along the arms. There are paint splatters on her clothes and attached badges of a cloud (with a smiley face), strawberry and lightning bolt.
Not read the story yet--doing stages first--but I *really* hope Tippi's vibe matches her outfit, it's so cute. 45 pulls to get her (got some French guy too I guess...) and already E2, Skyranger is just so fun to use.
In Super Mario Galaxy 2, the Wigglers on the Tall Trunk Galaxy slide are special slide-only Wigglers that literally cannot exist outside of it. If one of them is allowed to make it all the way up the slide, he will lose his head and become a singularity.
Bit over two months now, and patches have been great for many reasons but every now and then, even though I do all the same prep as usual, my skin is just like "this is literally sandpaper AAAAA" and I want to gnaw my leg off.
Ik it's just the moodboard but the idea of either "random stone carving??" or "$15 of gas, take it or leave it" being options amuses me
Ok, the Bastion medley at the end though
I may be biased because half the tracks are from Transistor (which I need to actually play more than 10 minutes of, but gosh the soundtrack is easily my favourite of them).
How am I only now finding out that there's an orchestral rearrange best-of album for Supergiant games? EXCUSE ME?

No context (because spoilers) but: Arknights 15-14

I was loaned a Wii U from a coworker 5ish years ago (for a single at-the-time-exclusive) and it lasted like 15 minutes. Luckily the charge cable was decently long!
Soundtrack for internally screaming right now (in a hopefully good way)
Xenoblade X screenshot: The party of Elma, Tatsu, Lin and the player character (and Al, but only as the 4th member) stand on a grassy ledge at sunset looking towards the crashed habitat unit of New LA.
Anyway, until the Switch 2 upgrades (Monolith, PLEASE)... [7/7]
Xenoblade X screenshot. A mountainous desert landscape with Mia, distantly being carried away by a large flying creature as the party look on: "AAAUUGH! HELP ME, CHIEEEEEEF!"
Xenoblade X screenshot. On a white sandy plain, Mia, to the player character in front of her heavily damaged Skell: "Oh come on, I've been shot down AGAIN?!"
Xenoblade X screenshot: Mia, from behind a locked door in an underground alien hideout to the party: "Trust me, you don't want to know more. Unless you do--in which case, not judging. Buy me a drink and I'll catch you up."
Xenoblade X screenshot at night on a semi-arid island. Mia, with the player character and Tora, a small Nopon, says aloud: "Now I really miss my dads."
It also has Mia. Mia is the best. [6/7]
