Yea, it's obvious why he's popular, even if it's really not my thing. I definitely prefer Let's Players who do more analysis about game design and storytelling. I love the Spoiler Warning crew featuring Shamus Young and the Errant Signal guy. It's the most fun you can have listening to people just critically lacerate…

I tend to treat them like podcasts with a visual element so I can do other things. I'm getting older and really don't have the time to play a lot of games or even go through the trouble of having multiple consoles. But my job is LOOONG hours with lots of semi-downtime so getting to see lots of different games with…

Just a heads up, "red pill" carries a very specific meaning in the nutjob MRA camp. As much as I love the analogy of seeing through the mental traps of patriarchy and gender binarism and seeing the code of the matrix*, misogynists and pickup artists have co-opted the terminology in a really gross way.

It was really prescient of them to name their company after the sharp, annoying bark a tiny dog might make.

Even with nasty bugs and half broken save system, Walking Dead and Wolf Among Us most definitely did NOT suck.

So I was listening to the Cracked podcast and apparently Florida has a unique open public records law. The assumption that weird crime and police encounters happen more often in Florida seems to be a bit of a myth and its just that other states don't have those bizarre specific details available for public consumption.

This looks fine. And don't worry. Watterson still has complete control over Calvin and Hobbes. If history is any guide, he'd never agree to a movie. And no one cares enough about any other newspaper strip for a blockbuster movie to be viable. (Unless they wanna take another crack at Garfield or Dilbert).

I'm just gonna sit out the feminist discussion here and plug Waking Sleeping Beauty like I do every time this era of Disney is brought up.

Y'know I'm still a few hours from the end of the game, but I didn't need a sad music video to glomb on to the fact that Talion/Celibrimbor are essentially Sauron-in-training. The Wraith straight up admits that we're gonna manipulate the orcs exactly the way Sauron intended to do himself and Talion's weak protests that…

And content that isn't normally sold? Is adblock disabled for Kotaku? Is it disabled on your favorite youtube channel?

And you compensate content creators... how exactly?

Ok, all together now: GAMERS ARE NOT A MARGINALIZED GROUP.

A real discussion of humanity's troubling relationship with kids and their pre-sexuality is impossible as long as its couched in an ongoing, anti-celebrity hate mob.

Here's a book trailer that shows off a bit of his process. He's definitely one of my childhood artistic idols, even if the illustrations scared the ever living piss out of me.

You really shouldn't get poly folk's hopes up like that.

She's got a point. It's just going to take a lot more, from everyone, to deprogram several millenia of entrenched fetishization. I mean the bikini needed no less than a super star like Brigitte Bardot and an earth shattering movement like the sexual revolution to really catch on. In the culturally fractured 20-teens,…

You can't just claim an artistic medium for yourself, shitass. Life doesn't work that way.

Or he did exhibit signs and the family members simply rationalized them away.

By no straight men admitting to it do you mean sexual partners or just friends in casual conversation? Because masturbation habits aren't really common topics of conversation anyway. For the most part, no one really wants to out themselves as being the weird one in a group of people.

My big veiny dildo was shipped discretely Amazon and reasonably priced. There is no goddamn excuse for this anymore.
