Nope. Best practices for suicide reporting recommend not using “committed,” which sounds like a crime or, to religious communities, like a sin, and “kill yourself” is just insensitive, crude, and poorly phrased. “Died by suicide” is the phrasing recommended by mental health professionals and the American Foundation…

Dishonored was indeed excellent. I’ll have to agree with you on that being one to try.

Sorry Imperator it looks like Max is in another car.

I honestly think the assertion that HL3 will never be made is a bit over dramatic. There’s no reason for them to drop the property and I think many people misunderstand why Valve decides to make their games.

Most developers seem to make games simply to put a story or a game mode forward that they think would be…

We’ll probably have to play Tiddlywinks to earn Sale Tokens that we can spend on a slot machine that will randomly determine how much our next purchase will be discounted by, based on our Zodiac sign.

wait no! that's not how to test it! some normal mirrors have a gap and some don't as well - it depends on the thickness of the glass, so the fingernail test isn't actually reliable. what you can do, however, is knock on the mirror, because if it's two way there'll be a room behind it so the sound will be hollow. or…

Oh my fuckin' god I love Which Wich. They wrap their sandwiches up so neat and tidy, which is very important to me. But the best thing of all may be that I just turn in the bag with the kind of sandwich I want so I don't have to make eye contact with a cashier as I request extra bacon and a criminal amount of pickles.

Ah, the early 90’s. Such a glorious time to be a gamer. Fighting games galore in every Arcade. Back then way before Youtube I was making crud music videos with game footage. I would connect my Genesis or SNES to my VCR and record game footage. Then connect two VCR’s together for editing and connect a boombox to the…

Unfortunately, stupid attitudes haven’t really changed in 50 years. Women were only allowed to compete in the bobsled starting in 2002 because they were deemed “fragile”.

Holy good God, what was that? I feel like I just read a page from the Necromonicon.

I'm so sick of that car. Leave my family alone!

HANG ON TO THEM HATS AND GLASSES! CUZ THIS HERE'S THE WILDEST RIDE IN THE WILDERNESS!!! YEEEEEE-HAAAAAAW!!!!!

Showing cleavage and shoulders = selling sex? Yeah... no. They're breasts, not even the whole breast. Yours is a horrible argument and stupid as fuck to boot. No, women (nor men) should not be harrassed because of their profession or where they work and no, these streamers aren't selling sex. Are you stupid?

OK, so why is this suddenly such a big thing?

Dude, third-wave feminism started addressing that years ago. While it's certainly true that certain schools are entirely too focused on economicaly advantaged white women, many schools of feminism are focused on something called "intersectionality", and attempt to look at the links between, say, the hijab and the…

What you just did has a name: The Fallacy of Relative Privation. Also known as "whataboutery" or "the starving children in Africa argument".

This is my job. I love that you guys post this shit every other week or so. The motion industry is one of the most fun industries to be a part of—we get to dip our toes in everything that is creative.

Felix Mack works at Nightjar, a studio that specialises in, well, it's hard to describe. You know the animation/footage that plays behind an artist when they're on stage? Or the menus on a DVD? Or the credits sequence for a video game? Yeah, they do that.

I'm afraid that the suicide angle has been played so much in fan-made short films (especially in SFM) as an easy out for "emotional/depressing mood" that it has lost all effect.
