The things you are describing are the Republicans pulling the Overton Window rightward, and the DLC Democrats, Clinton included, going along with the pull. July 1996: www.washingtonpost.com/archive/opin...

if you want a very exhaustive rundown of who didnt invent the sloppy joe i wrote it all down buttondown.com/theswordandt...

I’m always saying this.

*technically invented by their employees, research engineers, etc., but those constitute The Lesser People who will eventually be rendered obsolete by the GodSlave Computer and thus deserve no credit in the Executive or Investor’s mind. They are not *The Visionary* that is the Ideas Guy, you see.

The investor and executive class are, *categorically* insane delusional nightmare people who have convinced themselves they have invented* the computer that will end having to pay the Lesser People’s money for labor, thus ensuring even more cancerous profit growth. They have set the economy on fire

It took two nights of effort, but despite my terrible drawing skills I summoned forth this particularly cursed fanart for @bransonreese.bsky.social’s Swan Boy a few weeks back Pareidolia Engines eat your Nvidia GPUs out

using ai could never replicate the pure whimsy and joy i felt making this image

Personally not gonna buy retro game hardware from a guy who’s like “Imma put explosives in my gaming hardware cause I wanna be like the insane game programmer from the MMO game anime that’s not .hack”

He says he opted for the explosive charges because you couldn’t yet miniaturize the microwave emitters needed to literally fry the user’s brain as in the novels/anime Palmer Lucky: “I FUCKING LOVE THE TORMENT NEXUS GUYS LETS MAKE IT”

Reminder that Lucky is a psychopath who talks glowingly of the insane software engineer in novel/anime SAO who deliberately trapped thousands of players in a death game MMO, to the point he cobbled together an oculus rift studded with explosive charges as a decorative art piece

I think what's interesting about rogue likes isn't the randomness but the *interactions*, and the Castlevanias in general but Rondo in specific are really good at setting up interactions, the design is *dense*, they're good at"oh no, there are two of them this time and your usual trick doesn't work"

Meanwhile Rondo's design philosophy is like: "Here is a Skeleton. This one throws bones HELLA fast. This is a PROBLEM." Walk to the next screen: "This is an Axe Armor. Unlike every other Axe Armor you've ever seen this one is standing across a pit. This is a PROBLEM"

Playing a lot of CastleVania: Bloodlines and Rondo of Blood and it's fascinating to see the two different design philosophies. Bloodlines is on a Genesis and Genesis games trend toward being very fast, arcade-y game with a lot of emphasis on action.

Oh no Poppy is starving again.
