big weekend for Taylor Swift and America; two gluttonous titans of yesteryear fully entrenched in their downward slope, loudly demanding the celebration of both their essence and excess while likely lacking the self awareness necessary to course correct in any meaningful way
it's crazy when you see a photo for the first time and recognize that in 100 years historians are going to use it as shorthand to summarize the whole era you're living through right now.
“This generation will not be defined by its great games or incredible tech, but rather by corporate greed, mismanagement, and anti-consumer practices.”
Nailed it
To compare
ETBs should be $49.99. They're listed for $150
UPCs should be $179.99. They're listed for $600
Booster Bundles should be ~$27. They're listed for $80
Poster collection should be $14.99. It's listed for $50
They're basically tripling the prices. It's disgusting.

Nothing beats a Champion of Champions event in the game Pokémon Champions featuring 8 world Champions of various Championships being coached by a three time World Champion to win a trip to the 2027 World Championships
Crazy how brainwashed people are by capitalism?? Obviously less choices for consumers is BAD because it only benefits the corporations! Not being able to access games without internet is bad. No resell value on second hand is bad. No used games is bad. No physical media is BAD.
I can't help but think gaming is in a really, really bad place right now.
Things like this, massive layoffs/closures across the industry losing thousands of talented people who will never return, and the continual refocus on the Hollywoodification of games in general.
I hate it.
Fun drama I was not aware of:
Apparently there are a lot of fantasy authors who despise George RR Martin - because he abandoned the Game of Thrones series, left it unfinished, and now readers largely won't start new fantasy series bc they don't trust the author to finish it.
It’s a fucking privilege to have no idea what’s happening in the world right now. Being able to say, “I don’t do politics” or “it stresses me out” is crazy work. People are being executed. Families are being destroyed. Buck the fuck up.
