This isn’t free to play grind bullshit as much as it is, “we want you to learn this game and its mechanics before jumping into games with other people who very much know what they’re doing”

If ‘Everything Everywhere all at once’ folks were smart, they’d have had Michelle Yeoh go missing from set for hours with Jaime Lee Curtis, and get into screaming matches with Jenny Slate and Ke Huy Quan.

I’m good. My Pixel 5 does most of these things and it only cost 400 quid a year ago, plus it has USB-C and no notch.

So Android’s making boundary-pushing folding phones and large OS and UI updates, and Apple is... making an iPhone 14 that’s a tiny incremental update over the 13? What part is supposed to be tempting, exactly?

I’m just going to come out and say it:

I really don’t understand this marketing campaign for The Flash.

Remember when Kotaku wasn’t just a video game site? Remember when Kotaku covered anime? Japanese snack foods? Nerd culture in general?

That’s not “getting it straight,” that’s removing key information.

Tell me about it - the itching and scabs alone is enough to drive a person mad

To be fair, they could eliminate 95% of the hate if they stopped with the slideshow and video articles... just sayin’...

Jesus is the worst fetish of them all...

Username checks out.

For a thousand dollars I will fart directly in your face.

All of this to me seems to be someone who is convinced that being youth is intrinsically better than age, and that everyone who is old somehow wants to hide it and appear young.

Or anywhere near a professional office environment.

All of this sounds like someone who doesnt work in an office.  No one gives a shit about any of these things.  No one is laughing at the Olds for saying Presentation instead of Slide Deck.

I’d rather people think I’m old than embrace social media platforms that convince people to eat dishwasher detergent packs. And using one space after a period is just wrong, like pineapple on a pizza or wearing a baseball hat backwards. Just wrong.  Now get off my lawn.

I say this every time this comes up: it’s important to remember you’re not mad at China, you’re mad at Capitalism. No company HAS to change their behavior or alter/censor their content...they *CHOOSE* to because they’re Capitalists and they want money. And if they want a piece of the absolutely bonkers-massive market…

My theory:

No mention of Aunt Pol from Peaky Blinders? Shame on you.
