remember when not only you would get a disc but you’d also get a case with meaningful cover art along with a manual that taught you how to play (and often included fun additional lore tidbits) and hell sometimes they’d even throw in a poster for free just for fun
So do Sony realize that when they drop a 1500 dollar PS6 with no physical discs to collect that everyone is just going to get PC and Steam because it’s the superior digital option or are they just really that fucking stupid
Let's say the PS6 is a digital only console (pretty much guaranteed now) and 20yrs after it's release you wanna get a game for the PS6 but they've shut down the store just like they did for the PS3/Vita. What are you going to do?
You can't go to a gamestop, a pawn shop, a flea market, ebay or whatever. This is planned obsolescence in its' final form. PlayStation now has 100% control over how you buy and play a game.
Your boy wanna sell you a game for cheap? Can't do that, gotta buy full price on PSN. Wanna give your boy a game to check out? too bad, he's gotta buy it for $70 on PSN.
This is terrible for videogame preservation and consumer rights
why did my cousin just call my job with a family emergency so they sent me home and i call her bawling my eyes out thinking someone literally died and she goes “i thought you might want the rest of the day off since it’s so hot right now” HELLO????
This man is going on two decades of consistently proving he is an absolute piece of shit and it’s so embarrassing that anyone still listens and supports him
I'm always for being open about mental health, but important context is that Kean, as a state rep, voted against the New Jersey Paid Sick Leave Act, which established 40 hours of sick leave for employees a year.
Kean just took *4 months* of paid sick leave.
In January, our administration inherited a $12 billion budget deficit — a fiscal crisis greater than the Great Recession.
Today I am proud to announce that our balanced budget has cleared the final step and passed the New York City Council.
We balanced the budget by taxing the rich and making government more efficient. We did not balance this budget on the backs of working people, and we never will.
Every year that follows will build on these principles: Honest budgeting. Fiscal discipline. Transparent government. And an unwavering belief that working people deserve a government that delivers for them every day.
I like landlords crying about the rent freeze and how it will stop repairs when Mamdani has had to crack down on them because they weren’t doing repairs without a rent freeze!
Today marks 11 years since Obergefell v. Hodges affirmed a simple, profound truth: everyone has the right to marry the person they love.
It's a day to celebrate the generations of LGBTQ+ people and organizers who fought to make that promise a reality.
When so many protections are being challenged, we should remember what it looks like when the Supreme Court expands freedoms instead of revoking them.
Love is always worth defending. Happy Pride.

Even if you don’t live in NYC, please retweet this and get the word out so that the ppl in YOUR city also learn that they too can have politicians who get things done if they mobilize and vote socialist in other elections! 🗣️
Someone said it in Spanish, but I'll say it in English so that as many people as possible know: Venezuelans currently don't have aid and are unprepared for this because the regime has stolen all the resources that guarantee the security and stability of the Venezuelan people
