Part of my literal job is to fly out to physical game studios to rescue and recover historical materials that might be endangered and put them in a permanent archive. @gamehistoryorg.bsky.social is a 501(c)3 publicly funded to do that, my DMs are open, and I'm free for the next couple weeks...

“It’s only fascism if they manipulate elections!” “It’s only fascism if they disappear people off the street!” “It’s only fascism if they take over the media!” “It’s only fascism if they jail their political opponents!” Is there even anything left?

over the weekend, leon went rogue and compromised six or maybe seven miller high lifes that were in the fridge. the incident occurred on saturday night and also involved a red baron frozen pizza. we are conducting a thorough investigation into how this happened

Dua Lipa reportedly ate a hot dog for the first time at October 7’s Yankees-Rays game. But how could that possibly be true? Vulture went back six years through the archives in search of a stray dog.
