@falco_girgis That’s good and all, but how do you make Ocarina of Time’s ocarina controls not feel like crap? I hated them in the 3DS remake. Do you use the D-Pad for the C-buttons?!

Someone said that our Sega Dreamcast ports were a pointless waste of time today and that nobody will play them… Meet my son, who was the first kid to ever play Mario 64, Doom 64, Mario Kart 64, Starfox 64, Sonic Mania, Grand Theft Auto 3 and Vice City, and now The Legend of Zelda: Ocarina of Time—some of my all-time favorite games from childhood—on my favorite console, the Sega Dreamcast, for his first play-throughs… and his little sister plays with us as well. Despite the fact that we actually do have a thriving homebrew scene of people playing and supporting us, I could not give less of a shit if anyone else plays them or appreciates the work… This is all the validation I need.

@FBXGargoyle @VimmsLair @RetroRGB maybe you can put some feelers out there? I’m not here to start shit, but I’ve been a fan of Vimms for a while and it’s be nice if they did right by those that supported them.

@GimmeMahShit @VimmsLair I can't speak for anyone else, nor would it make this behavior any less unacceptable, and they know it.

Myrient shutting down March 31st, 2026 :( This is what AI and greed does.

@FBXGargoyle @VimmsLair Not for nothing, but I’m going to assume they probably fucked over a bunch of other people too. This is the first I’ve heard anything about them doing anything wrong…perhaps it should be signal boosted and then they can be bullied into doing the right thing?

@GimmeMahShit @VimmsLair Not much too it. They e-begged form game manuals with the promise they would send them IMMEDIATELY back after scanning them. They never send them back, in spite of me asking them to for 3 years before I got the hint they were ghosting me on purpose.

@FBXGargoyle @VimmsLair Wait, what?! Story time?

@VimmsLair I can recall when you STOLE my entire stack of game manuals for NES and SNES. You kept stalling on sending them back until you eventually ghosted me. I believe the term is "pot calling the kettle black".

@DarkBobPockrass @VEsoterica I care about ai….but I also am not going to attack VG Esoterica.

@VEsoterica People who game don’t care about AI. It’s a tool, use the tool.

I have removed today’s video because apparent some viewers blame me for what is going on with this translation. So that was fun 🤣

I wish GG Allin had lived and gone full MAGA so I could watch old republican white ladies pretend to like it when he sang Bite It You Scum and threw shit at them

@BlueShell3D AND WHAT DO YOU THINK I SAW?!

This is how I wake the children

@fleshsimulator Historically there has not been election fraud found as a widespread problem. That being said, this government has proven to lie and use disinformation to distract from issues that people care about. (EPSTEIN) So maybe don’t be so quick to push a narrative and be a useful idiot?

Is that why you guys fought until the absolute last breath to keep the FBI from auditing Fulton county And denied a search warrant like 60 times and claimed that no evidence of election fraud was found, like 60 times And then last week when the FBI finally got to look at the votes they found so much fraud they brought in the director of national intelligence

@MoonJellyKevin FUCK YEAH!

My art may be dumb as ****, but y'know guys, they're my dumb ideas and I'm glad I made them instead of asking artificial intelligence to make my dreams for me.

@GoodPoliticGuy Would it be entirely impossible that he was both?

the denial of Epstein as an obvious asset for Israel is one of the laziest and most dishonest propaganda campaigns I’ve ever seen

@jamestrombonee Tank controls were never the problem. The problem was tank controls WITH bad camera and bad camera angle switching. There are some game heightened by challenging controls and some games were crushed by having improper controllers for the game’s needs.

I really don't understand how tank controls are so controversial lol

@MrRockMan2001 @NickJFreitas @DemocraticWins Well if you were for universal healthcare, you wouldn’t have to worry about if you could afford healthcare and you already pay for other people’s healthcare when you pay for insurance. Anytime someone else gets sick, they cost the company more money and they pass that onto you.

@NickJFreitas @DemocraticWins My daughter had her appendix removed yesterday in Atlanta. Within 10 minutes numerous non English speakers arrived. They never asked for their insurance cards. But they asked for mine. I guess Im paying THEIR bills, too.

BREAKING: A group of Maine nurses just showed up at Susan Collins’ office to demand she vote against funding ICE following ICE’s killing of nurse Alex Pretti. This is what solidarity looks like. This is power.

@Polymarket @grok it says fully stocked and shows an image of a fully stocked room. Why does it have boxes of Kellogg’s Frosties when this is a New York location? Isn’t Frosties a UK variant of Frosted Flakes? Is there anywhere in the US that calls it Frosties? Is this just an ai image?

The Polymarket is fully stocked. No purchase required. We're open to all New Yorkers. A real, physical investment in our community. The Polymarket's grand opening is on February 12th @ noon ET.

After months of planning, we're excited to announce 'The Polymarket' is coming to New York City. New York's first free grocery store. We signed the lease. And we donated $1 million to Food Bank For NYC — an organization that changes how our city responds to hunger. 🧵

@Littleman284996 @4StrokeEngineer @Polymarket Correct, it’s a 5 day pop up shop.

@4StrokeEngineer @Polymarket Under 3 months

@grok @JahBless1908 @s8n @grok what’s the hidden joke with Babyface and Ducky?

This is from Toy Story (1995), showing Sid's mutant toys. The middle one is "Legs"—Barbie doll legs fused with a fishing rod. The dangling hook creates a pun on "hooker" (slang for prostitute), an adult joke that flies over kids' heads. The others are Babyface (spider baby) and Ducky (with wrestler body on a spring). Classic Pixar subtlety!

@KamalaHQ GO THE FUCK AWAY!

@KeffiyehWaddleD @suda_51 Wrong, you should name another musician!

@suda_51 Anthony Fantano!!

@theneedledrop @remarks Guess it’s a good thing “Mr Wonderful” doesn’t have to worry about entertaining, or he would be required to follow his own advice. Just a miserable cunt, thought money bought happiness. He can’t even keep his mouth shut and enjoy himself.

@remarks what about nicki???

JUST IN: Billionaire Kevin O'Leary tells Billie Eilish to "shut your mouth and just entertain" after she said "no one is illegal on stolen land."

Having been a user of this software for more than half my life, seeing this announcement is shocking but completely unsurprising. I've never seen such blatant disdain for a product's userbase in my life, and this feels like the point it was almost destined to come to. There are so many new applications for creating digital animation, but this one from the very beginning just had the juice. The irony of this all is that it wasn't built as an animation software, but for making interactive websites... ads, company portals, corporate shit. Multimedia projects created in this format were displayed using Flash Player, a browser supported plug-in. Through Flash's entire lifetime, it felt as if Adobe was dragged kicking and screaming... never truly accepting the functionality it had organically developed as an artistic tool. From Adobe's perspective, it was the FORMAT that was the value; that is, they wanted Flash Player to be THE way to display multimedia across the web. Adobe DID fight for Flash, but the fight was for dominance over web multimedia... in the oughts, it was THE way to display multimedia on your website. But little losses here and there, like Apple refusing to support the format for smart phones, lead to a steady decline. An adaptive shift to HTML5 support was added to Flash in order to maintain relevance, but the clear goal of total multimedia dominance was shattered. This shift marked the name change to "Animate"... a name that serves as a hollow non-acknowledgement of its consistently strong and loyal userbase of artists, but belies the gross truth of their true intentions: to continue to claw for dominance in the field of web-based multimedia. Through all this, Flash/Animate continued to be an industry standard for digital 2D animation. Both independent and professional cartoonists utilized it to create beloved projects... even today. The corporate politics involved in the jockey for control of web-multimedia kept Adobe consistently blind to the voices of its most loyal users. One famous example is that Flash was notoriously terrible at exporting and rendering video from its proprietary vector-based format, so open-source software Swivel was developed by Mike Welsh to do it better. It may be difficult to understand this, but Flash was SO good, that even though it was consistently and profoundly broken, it was still often the tool of choice for animation. The reason all this is important for me to convey is... There was a feeling this company gave animators through the lifetime of their product that we were not a priority. Even as it became a standard in the professional animation industry, we often felt like an afterthought in favor of the ultimate goal of corporate dominance. The fact that Flash/Animate happened to be a fantastic program for making cartoons was a complete accident... and Adobe only ever saw that as a cute little bonus. So as we are getting more clarity around this decision to discontinue Animate... that Adobe sees this program as incompatible with their AI-based future goals... I think of how they've always operated: Staunchly anti-artist, anti-creative, and anti-human. This generative AI bullshit is nothing new, it is the next flavor of the same pathetic jockeying for corporate dominance. Artistic voices will continue to be ignored, while the artists they belong to will continue to be exploited. And that takes a mental toll on a creative mind. This announcement, to me, stands as a blatant admittance of this cycle. They do not care. And they never will. We should care. Art is humanity. I am so grateful for this new renaissance of indie animation, and am doubly grateful and honored to be a part of it. It is so easy for corporations like Adobe and even just normal people to discount the value of art, both for its own sake and for its influence on the world. But it IS important. Your art is important and YOU are important. Please continue to create. Even if for no other reason than just to spite these motherfuckers.

@TommygWinsAgain @fleshsimulator @elonmusk @TommyG Musk went to the Island and was friends with Epstein…so maybe don’t be looking for the friend of the main villain to save you.

@fleshsimulator Yo @elonmusk is @Tommyg allowed back now since the account was deleted for breaking the wayfair conspiracy open in 2020? And “baselessly” accusing celebrities of sex trafficking and blood worship Since it’s all proven to be true now?

Jeffrey Epstein’s assistant bought a single, unlabeled $8,453 dollar item from Wayfair
