Meta took down the No Kings instagram; TikTok banned the Musk documentary account for supposedly violating its political posting policies. A reminder that platforms are owned by the wealthiest of people, control the means of media distribution, & put their thumbs on the democracy scale as they wish

I tell you this to prepare you for 2023's PETRODRAGONIC APOCALYPSE, an absolutely face-melting thrash metal concept album about giant mutant lizards, witches that must stop them, and the end of our planet. Worth noting that this is actually their second thrash metal album and both are volcanic. 6/

Did I mention KGLW have 27 albums? The discography is rich, eclectic, and mesmerizing. Like I said, the best band on planet earth and now you know about them! Enjoy! end/

2017s FLYING MICROTONAL BANANA was where I first heard these beautiful boys. This album is made entirely with microtonal instruments, instruments that play the notes between notes. This is a wild, psychedelic rock journey with some ridiculously catchy riffs. See: Rattlesnake and Nuclear Fusion 4/

This is probably where I should mention, if it's not obvious, that KGLW doesn't stick to a genre. They just kinda go where they are feeling curious and want to explore and play before seeing what else they can do. 5/

Start with 2016's NONAGON INFINITY. I think this is the best alt rock album since SONGS FOR THE DEAF. Incredible concept album where the album's 9 songs bleed into each other until ultimately the end of last track leads into the beginning of the first and now you get the album title. 2/

After that buckle up, we're going to 2015s PAPER MACHE DREAM BALLOON, an entirely acoustic/folk rock throwback to a 60s Beatles/Haight-Ashbury sound and recorded inside a shipping container on a farm in Australia. 3/

A Saturday morning cartoon type of TV show based on the universe of Star Wars Galactic Racer would be the best thing Disney could ever do.

Popped on to Twitter for 2 seconds to see a video of play from College Football today. I'm here to report that, yes, it is still a post-nuclear wasteland of toxicness and edgelords.

MIGHT I MAKE A SUGGESTION

PC Gamer@pcgamer.com

"In addition to regularly releasing major new titles each year, Capcom is focusing on re-activating IPs that haven't had a new title launch recently," the developer said.

pcgamer.comCapcom expresses continued interest in 're-activating IPs' as the first new Onimusha game in 20 years surpasses 1 million sales on launch dayOnimusha: Way of the Sword's launch day sales have propelled the series to 10 million lifetime sales, says Capcom.

RIP to the wonderful Sam Neill who everyone loved and who was fantastic in every film he appeared in. Yes, he was great in Jurassic Park, but you want to see range? Watch Event Horizon then Hunt for the Wilderpeople. He will be sorely missed ❤️

I have had an iPhone since the literal first one came out in 2007, but I would leave for Android before this tweet hits the internet clouds if the typing was more accurate. Can we use AI to better read where our thumbs are typing?! Bah!!

This is extremely good news for a games industry that really, really didn't need another big flop headline. Congrats to Bungie!

Marathon Server Slam stirs Steam with nearly 150,000 concurrent players day one, and that's not counting console participation. https://bit.ly/4rEd2nk

For reference, Arc Raiders netted out with 190,000 concurrent on Steam. This basically guarantees some metric of success for Marathon with attention THIS high. On top of that, the game plays very well. This will not be Concord 3.

sometimes the youtube algo will feed me clips of moneybal, so I watch it, then another, then another, then another and pretty much what I'm saying here is holy moly moneyball is a GREAT movie.

Boys Don't Cry. To this day I get mad thinking about it. I wish I had more hands so I could give [that movie] four thumbs down. (Except for the acting which was great).

fun question: what’s the maddest you’ve ever been leaving a movie theater? not necessarily worst movie you’ve seen, but the one that just pissed you off the most. mine is Batman v Superman

The John Wick series is so effective because it fully embodies the three major tenets of dumb guy fantasy: 1. being able to kick anyone’s ass, 2. living by a code of honor, and 3. paying for things with gold coins
