Richard Garriott, of Ultima fame, basically explains why gamers are the worst.

The Onion’s short “documentary”, “Jeffrey Epstein: BAD PEDOPHILE”, is hilarious and stupid and silly and also probably weirdly accurate in so many ways.

Do you know “Another World”? One of the best video games of all time? Well here’s a collection of behind-the-scenes footage that Eric Chahi used for reference and rotoscoping!

My American friends (and maybe those of us working in US companies too) may want to know about the National Shutdown coming up this Friday: general strike across the US to defund ICE. That’s your last card before reaching for guns, so make sure to play it right.
