my partner is playing this, and I enjoy asking ridiculous questions like, "are you still enemy to all crabs?" and "how is turning your body into a battery going?" Pretty sure he's been murdered by his evil twin at least twice. seems good?
WAKE UP, IT'S MOTHERSHIP MONDAY
ours don’t yip, but they sometimes make the purrp sound when jumping, like it’s an activation or hype up sound. it’s so cute!
wait that it so sweet!! 😭 i'm proud of y'all.
if you want MORE details about @zoehhannah.com's & my vision for @mothership.blog, listen to our guest appearance on our former boss (former polygon EIC) @plante.bsky.social's podcast Post Games. we talk about our history in the space & our dreams for its future postgame.substack.com/p/mothership...
omg so excited to be beamed aboard the Mothership. Very proud of @midimyers.com and @zoehhannah.com for making something ambitious and smart. Too long this is an audience underserved by gaming spaces, and I can't wait for full launch.
honestly one of my top games of last year. enjoy!!
this is just too iconic. we must!
Alright Dave Portnoy and Bill Ackman time to leave New York City and never return like you promised
For some additional vibes on Nexstar's local TV station network, I worked for a local TV station Nexstar took over managing in 2009. When they did, their health plans no longer covered birth control pills.
This story is a year old and very important. As someone who knows jack shit about right wing references and ideology but knows plenty about gaming culture, Helldivers was specifically attracting fascist freaks even though the devs went to great lengths to explain the concept of satire.
the shooter was an online gamer. it's important for newsrooms to understand video games more than ever. that's where i step in. so umamusume: pretty derby (ウマ娘 プリティーダービー) is a gacha horse racing simulator based on real life japanese race horses. in the world of umamusume, anime girls replace horses,
I think people need to mention this part, when talking about how culture desk work is dangerous. Rarely do news organizations understand when threats are real and how to respond.
As reporters wrestle how to cover another deeply online shooting suspect, I'm trying to imagine a scenario 30 years ago where shell casings had sports or music references instead of gaming ones. We continue to shout that gaming IS youth culture, but newsrooms can't speak about (or to) youth culture.
lol i was gonna say, this stance is hard to defend, Adam. But also disadvantaged against gen x for sure!
holy shit, thank you!!! i'm dying listening to this
four long cucumbers, one cut in half, on a cutting board. Also, a bunch of dill.
it’s been two months since i got laid off. In case you were wondering how it’s going, i’ve reached the “making pickles” stage of my unemployment journey, Send me your homemade pickle advice!
is going to atlantic terminal at 11 am on a Thursday a “perk” of unemployment?
for anyone in NYC looking: I was able to buy a Switch 2 at the best buy in atlantic terminal about 45 minutes ago. They said they had “plenty”.
Aww, i'm so glad you checked in, Julie. It's been so long. I will do that. <3
Danny! it's so nice to hear from you after all this time. Thank you so much. I'm glad our work meant so much to you and so many people.
14 years ago I pitched what would become Polygon to a startup called Sports Blogs Inc on the unfurnished third floor of a DC townhome. I held a laptop on my knees and went through a deck.
Today that same company -- now called Vox Media -- sold Polygon to Valnet.
here's that Starter Pack of Polygon people you were looking for bsky.app/starter-pack...
I'm still in shock and so so deeply angry about Vox Media's decision to sell Polygon. I am one of the over 20 people laid off today from the best damn website out there. I'm so proud of the place we built, and the workplace I helped shape. I'm sure I'll have more to say soon, but processing it now
i tried using the mouse on everything available to me (pants! back of my laptop! my arm!) and it all worked.
Snoop and Tom Brady: say no to hate
Kendrick: actually
"[Brendan] Carr, who was appointed by President Trump, said the investigation would focus on the stations’ practice of airing sponsorships." 🤔
I forgot this movie was from 2001! which was when I was a senior in high school. My recollections of Jones starting to get sinister was he became a 9/11 truther a couple years later.
I'm from Austin, so Jones was really a long-time joke on our public access channels. Like I remember when I was in high school watching a far different flavor of Jones get arrested after refusing to get fingerprinted with his drivers license. He was just kind of "local weirdo" then.
