I drive by the office almost daily since it's on the way to all my main spots. I drove past a few minutes ago and there is an electricity in the air I've never seen before! Looking forward to what they have in store this week 💙💜

In 1 hour, we're going to once again show that no one does it like Kinda Funny. Kinda Funny's Top 100 Games of All Time is a five-day, ticketed live event here in SF. 100 fans each and ever day. Think it's going to be JUST another podcast? www.youtube.com/watch?v=lnj5...

God, she had like 10 polygons but PS1 Ada is both my first and somehow current video game crush

You did such a great job! I haven't been able to watch RE yet but I'm so excited

I didn’t want it this to be the case. It was my favorite game at SGF. But it’s further proof that preview builds typically show off a game at its finest. Control Resonant is mid.

Narrator: *James zooms in the photo and puts his hands next to Aaron Sorkin's face.* James: … Wow yeah, he's almost there.

My girlfriend didn't seem as fascinated by Aaron Sorkin's insane spray tan as I was expecting

well, here’s what’s gonna happen. you’re gonna open the document, stare at it, write nothing for a while. you might get distracted by your phone. start with a few words. soon you’ll realize you’ve got a whole page. then another and another. once you know that’s possible, it all gets easier

Los Angeles has cheaper living, more work, way more friends per capita, cheaper food options, many more El Pollo Locos. Moving back to SF for the summer wasn't the smart choice. … but living in your car during constant heatwaves supercedes all that lmao Worst living but high last week was 64°F 🥶

I love being able to migrate whenever. I might move back to LA when things get cooler, so like late November? We'll see. I have a solid bartending job in San Mateo that's keeping me afloat. Would hate to leave it behind but housing has been tougher than usual in the Bay, and it's usually tough haha

I'm desperately trying to get back into sit-down comedy (what is colloquially known as "Twitch Streaming"). Goal was to start again before January. But my credit score is just barely too low for most livable places. 3 months to improve it is a toss-up but, in my current circumstance, is doable!🤞🏽

I need a cheap hobby that takes up little space. Maybe stand-up comedy, but I care about my mental health too much to do that.

Making dice. I *loved* doing it but casting dice is too expensive for something I didn't want to monetize. Also, considering being homeless, it involves too many large pieces of equipment that's not easy to store. The act of making dice was perfect for my ADHD, but maintaining it was not sadly.

what abandoned hobby would you love to get back into, but just can't get yourself to start again?

So my ongoing theory over the last few months: Doom is not played by Robert Downey Jr… but will actually be Chris Evans. I think the trailer scene of Steve Rogers and Thor is a fake reveal, or more realistically misleading storytelling.

Marvel fans need to prepare for "a very surprising ending" to Avengers: Doomsday, directors Joe and Anthony Russo have teased. https://bit.ly/4z1aMtK

Popeyes has a new chicken biscuit sandwich where you drizzle honey on it. But they legally can't call it honey, since it's mainly corn syrup, so the packets say "Honey Sauce." So all the promo ads have someone holding the packet with their thumb covering the ingredients and the word "sauce."

But I think they also legally can't do that, so behind the thumb you still see "Ingredients: Co—" All this for what's actually a corn syrup chicken sandwich is bizarre

Finally dove into Control Resonant after getting a code once the embargo lifted. Got through the SGF demo part. Still fun. The stuff after? Hasn’t clicked and I’m really not enjoying myself. Just tell me where to go and move the story along. 😕

sega canceling sonic? that’d be like if microsoft didn’t know what to do with halo, laid off a bunch of people, and gave it to activision

The actual clip of him saying this is so awesome. Absolutely brutal and from the sounds of it, deservedly so.

Mahershala Ali responds to Kevin Feige calling ‘BLADE’ the biggest failure of his career: “Kevin [Feige], he said it was the biggest failure of his career, and I agree... I agree with him 100%, he should feel that way.” #MahershalaAli #Blade #KevinFeige

it’s been said a ton already but I really do appreciate mamdani so throughly dismantling the core democrat ideology of “we actually can’t ever do anything helpful or good because of. circumstances”

They even made DoorDash apologize.

Me: Hmm that's weird. My debit card was declined. I definitely have enough mone—" Bank: The gas station you last used put as $200 hold on your card. Me: Oh. Eating food is overrated anyways…
