PC Gamer asked me to do a series of spotlights on Resident Evil mods across the series.
I couldn't NOT do BioRand first.
CFP: Race, Law and Empire
New from me. A years-long battle with Valve's ineffective moderation rumbles on as bigotry and harassment is given persistent passes on Steam. It leads to lengthy, sometimes traumatic, processes to get content that violates Steam's own guidelines removed β if it ever is. In @theguardian.com.

Unfortunately not - but did have a copy of Chopper Squad on my Amstrad CPC 464 written by my namesake which always made me smile.
@alexpaknadel.bsky.social here's the video I mentioned last night: youtu.be/4o2F6t84UhA?...
Del Toro's Frankenstein is a visually stunning loveletter to classic gothic horror with a surprisingly tender heart but a few adaptation choices just hold it back from being the definitive version of Shelley's novel. Got loads of ideas for approaches and readings of it though.
@earlymodernhorror.bsky.social has played through Vampire: The Masquerade β Bloodlines 2. Find out his verdict at the link.

Gallbladder removal.
Gallbladder removal.
Obligatory 'I lived' post.
Off to get my gallbladder removed so see you all on the other side I guess. Given the state of the world not having an organ to store my bile seems pretty appropriate...

Stefan has been playing some Little Nightmares 3. Have a read of his preview to dive into some details.

13 year old was not impressed when I sniggered at this name. I think he's much more mature than me ;)
This'll be my first academic event in a long while so be gentle with me ;p Looking forward to supporting some incredible research by young scholars with vital perspectives on the field. I'll be the old bald one nodding furiously and trying to spread good vibes :)
Can recommend Merlin Sheldrake's Fungi too on this: www.merlinsheldrake.com/entangled-life
It's not real research until you've passed the 'did I dream this?' threshold :)
You say that, but they did that after a private education so consequences don't exist for them. Rayner wasn't the right class to get away with anything.
Kirby and the Forgotten Land Switch 2 Edition + Star Crossed World gets a 9 from @earlymodernhorror.bsky.social! Find out why in his review.

How are you finding Wuchang? Had to respec and switch away from smashy axe build for Honglan so rocking longsword now. Hit another roadblock with a later boss though. Many such cases.
Heartworm is a fantastic indie horror and definitely one to get your teeth into.
5 panel comic P1: Not Optimus Prime stands striking a stoic pose inside what looks to be a spaceship interior. A little bug of a human stands by his feet, and says "wow, you're amazing, Optimain Protag! I wish I could be just like you!" P2: Optemu Prime lays his open left hand down on the ground, palm up, and booms"STEP INTO MY HAND, BILLY" Billy, a little boy, is starstruck as he steps on to the palm. "WOWWW!" P3: Gently clasping Billy in both hands, Amazon Prime raises Billy up to his gargantuan head, to observe the human child with his implacable yellow eyes. P4: With a sickening "KRK-KRK-KRACK-POP," Ombusprem contorts poor Billy in ways no human should be contorted. Tears form in the all too soft and pliable human's eyes, mouth gaping in a silent scream. P5: We pan back, as Leader-1 proudly holds up the contorted Billy --arms stretched out-- and pretends to fly him around. "YOU ARE AN AIRPLANE NOW, BILLY" Billy, voice barely a whisper, says "ow my spine" The heroic robot replies "WHAT'S A SPINE"
give me the transformers comic and I will tell the stories that need to be told
Cheers dude. Means a lot coming from you :) I'm fortunate in lots of ways - family, friends, home etc. Just feeling a bit sorry for myself work wise at the moment. These things will pass...
New publication alert for my #gamestudies folks
www.frontiersin.org/journals/psy...
Didn't get a job I interviewed for - doing something I already do - and definitely feeling in a rut. Need to do something to break out of a negative routine. Feeling over the hill and too old to retrain but without prospects where I am.
Post pets pls I guess?
