This is so well said. 😂
Maybe Sony doesn't realize that:
1. Most of us have a backlog bigger than our life expectancy
2. The jump from PS5 to PS6 is going to feel a lot smaller than previous generations (law of diminishing returns at this point)
3. If they want us to stay engaged, maybe... I don't know... give us games? Good games that don't take 7+ years to make. And maybe bring back some of the creativity and variety that made the PS1–PS3 eras so special.
Sony needs us more than we need them.
They created so much value over the last 30 years that plenty of us have enough incredible games to play for decades. If the future is "$1,000+ digital-only console, fewer games, longer waits, and less ownership," that's not exactly a compelling value proposition.
GG, Sony. Thanks for the memories. 🤣
i just want to point out… the amount of money the U.S. has spent on war in the last 2.5 months is roughly the same cost that Bernie Sanders proposed for universal college. so the real question is never ‘can we afford it’… it’s what we choose to prioritize.
THIS IS SATANIC ✡️🇮🇱
An Israeli soldier throws a stun grenade into a car carrying a Palestinian family, trapping them inside to absorb the blast.
Reports confirm one of the children inside is now permanently blinded for life.
ICE shoots protester in stomach with "less than lethal" bullets—had to be rushed to hospital.
Agent leans out of moving car to shoot with one hand—while driving with other.
Injures protester in abdomen at point blank range.
Car was not blocked—attack was completely unprovoked.
Video clearly shows every other ICE vehicle exiting the driveway unobstructed.
Protesters were just holding signs on the public sidewalk.
Incident occurred outside the Broadview ICE Processing Center in Illinois.
Person filming doesn't have an account on this platform—so posting first full length and credited video here to help raise awareness.
That’s exactly the precedent that has been set now. That‘s why this should have never happened, regardless of whether you think it was a red card for Balogun or not.
We will now have politicians of every country call FIFA after every single World Cup game for all kinds of controversial decisions - making our sport a lot less enjoyable.
FIFA won’t intervene when Iran is forced to relocate to Mexico and banned from training in the U.S., but they’ll break their own rules to reinstate a U.S. player.
Just to show you how scummy Sony is being with this news.
They anticipated their numbers would drop through people protesting/boycotting by canceling Ps Plus and pre-orders but they won't have to show their numbers to investors until the end of September.
Their next earnings call is July 31st however it only covers up to June 30th. They planned this out perfectly to drop it on July 1st for this very reason. The numbers dip early July, they have over 2 months to watch them HOPEFULLY recover as the deperate gamers crawl back and the investors see that Sony moving away from physical games didn't hurt anything.
Keep this is mind as we move forward. Sony is betting on you caving and crawling back to them in the coming weeks. Oh and so are the investors.
If a nurse gives a Senator $50 to vote for Medicare for All, it's illegal.
But Larry Ellison, worth $202 billion, spent $45 million to get Trump elected. So Trump is helping his family control:
CBS
CNN
TikTok
HBO
TNT
MTV
BET
And more
That’s a corrupt campaign finance system.
I DO NOT think people understand that global warming doesn’t mean “no cold weather ever.” It means a warming planet destabilizes weather patterns, causing more extreme weather. This has been explained for decades and people still don’t get it.
I will not be subtle about this - generative AI is both killing the planet and trained off of human work, stealing their original ideas and style without their consent.
It has NO place in creative spaces, even for “small” things like spellcheck and translation.
I am sorry but we are in a climate crisis and data centers continue to poison communities filled with marginalized people. You SHOULD be ashamed and embarrassed to be using ai

Regular Americans: “Please donate to my GoFundMe so I can afford insulin, bury my brother, fix my teeth, or buy a used car so I can get to work.”
That is not a flex for the richest country in the world.
That is a system failing people in 4K.
