Today I Will Look The Burrito Man In The Eye and other stories of manifesting success

Yea my first thought, before "why are you all like this" is "that's what I get for actually looking at my feed."

The real old person factor is that the only reason I keep a Facebook tab open is I'm in Messenger groupchats and I prefer typing on the keyboard to using my phone lmao.

Like alright sure whatever I dunno how to argue with people who engage in perpetual bridge-too-far-ism and always want things to be an epic betrayal or a hundred year conspiracy or a warcrime instead of just malicious opportunism or the wrong thing to do.

I was just about to post something complaining about how people care more about being "on the right side" than the literal truth lol.

Had a Faceboook argument that amounted to "this happened, and in this egregious way!" "It did happen, but not at all like that." "You're wrong and a N*zi*"

What a time we live in, that the generic fanservice character starts preaching and it actually resonates.

Was watching Sky News earlier and Israel called it Lion's Roar, international politics is just nonsense now I guess.

A monstrous two-headed Ash Drake, enveloped in a cloud of volcanic ash, circles round a rocky outcrop to ambush a Chaos warband and oh my days, is it not going to go well for them. One of them readies his spear to throw it, one is in a fighting crouch, and one is intent on attacking the tail of the Drake before it spikes them.

HOT FRESH NEW ART! A two-headed Ash Drake confronts a perhaps outmatched little warband, in this illustration from the just-released Champions of Chaos for Age of Sigmar: Soulbound!

Last reskeet - that old meme about the Chick-Fil-A worker getting disposed of for saying "thank you" instead of "my pleasure" is gonna become real huh?

What lights used to look like before people decided everyone needed to be half-blind for the entire drive home.

IT HASN'T EVEN BEEN A WEEK!

remember when EA was considered a big enough deal to be included in these kinds of things

The city commissioner 50 years from now on his deathbed: "OOOOOOOOOOOH, BEATORICCHEEE!"

the ushiromiyas if they stayed in their lane stayed true to the hustle and committed to the grind

I really have to wonder why any company even bothers with GAAS if they're unwilling to properly give them time? Stuff like 2XKO, Highguard, Concord etc - regardless of how you feel about them, killing them off or downsizing the teams just 2-3 weeks after a game releases is insane to me.

IF YOU MAKE A BAD GAME, YOU'RE FIRED
IF YOU MAKE A GOOD GAME, YOU'RE FIRED
IF YOU MAKE A DEAD GAME, YOU'RE FIRED
IF YOU MAKE A PROFITABLE GAME, YOU'RE FIRED
IF YOU MAKE A SUCCESSFUL GAME, YOU'RE FIRED
IF YOU MAKE A CHEAP GAME
IF YOU MAKE A AAA GAME, YOU'RE FIRED

IF YOU MAKE NO GAMES, YOU'RE SONY

Act 2's pacing always felt off to me but release rate slowing to like 2 chapters/year is probably part of that.

It was also just, a lot. I think they achieved what they were going for with each subplot, but the subplots didn't mesh smoothly, they just... happened concurrently.

if this is gonna happen in under a month to every multiplayer game that has almost a decade in the oven then at the very least it should just be open sourced and left to the laid off devs to do whatever with. literally the least you can do

A casino bot followed me because I used the word "game," not here too smh lol.

Really interesting seeing this right after seeing a rant by a senior officer about how top brass were being taken advantage of or manipulated because they lacked the political experience and connections to play the Washington game but you do you, Dort and Publius.

I suppose it's possible other people have really funny dreams instead of "I'm flying a plane but nobody gave me any of today's information and it's at an unfamiliar airport and the ATIS and tower frequencies seem to be nowhere in the cockpit" or "my mom is making a crisis scenario worse again."

I never believe the "had a dream that-" tweets, uh, skyts anymore, but LR, uh, S is a banger.

A fabricated statement from Nintendo of America's Twitter account addressing a fictitious scenario in which the Earth's oxygen supply is presumed to be depleting at a rapid pace, leaving humanity with mere days to live. "This is Miyamoto. On behalf of everyone who is employed at Nintendo Co. LTD and its subsidiaries, we deeply mourn the countless human lives which will be lost due to the depletion of the global oxygen supply. To anyone who has ever played one of our games, we are eternally grateful to have created long-lasting fun and memories for you. To ease the suffering of families and children across the world, the Mario Kart World game for the Nintendo Switch 2 system will be available as a free download on Nintendo eShop for the foreseeable future. We hope this small gesture of kindness will ease the pain as humanity prepares for a worst-case scenario." The statement is distastefully plastered with logos for Nintendo and Nintendo Switch 2, as well as with a render of Mario from Mario Kart World.

A fabricated Twitter thread responding to the fabricated Nintendo statement. John Default Profile Picture: "No one read this statement and thought it was distasteful? Why did Miyamoto think this would help anyone?" NintenDeen: "Simple: Nintendo is so depraved that they'd exploit a global crisis to boost the player count of the failed Mario Kart World and force consumers back into the Switch 2 ecosystem to boost sales and player numbers."

A fabricated Twitter thread responding to the fabricated Nintendo statement. PlayStation Nation: "What the fuck are you doing falsely advertising sales during these trying times? I went to the website and Mario Kart World is still selling for $80 USD." Kremling Kevin: "If you actually read the statement, it clearly says the discount is available on Nintendo eShop. Meaning the application on the Switch 2 itself, not the web browser version." PlayStation Nation: "Point still stands."

A fabricated Tweet responding to the fabricated Nintendo statement. Isaboner: "Nothing for Switch 1 owners?"

Had a dream that there was global panic about the world running out of oxygen, Nintendo was the only video game company to make a statement about it, and the internet collectively spent its final hours on Earth debating whether Nintendo was being genuine or not

Posting “my lungs got no oxygen and PlayStation got no games” as I start to black out

Only thing I know about Sakiko Arknights Mujica is her mission failure voice line and it's so real
