something i’m fascinated by creatively is the negative space of game design. how just the knowledge that a mechanic or story path exists can fundamentally change your relationship to the work even if you never experience it directly. bad endings that most people don’t get. characters in multiplayer games that dictate the meta despite never being played. a hundred secrets in a game where most players will only find five. games are the only medium where this kind of non-content can haunt and infect everything else and i love them for that

we are kind of in "fetish world where everyone does my fetish" but the fetish is heteromonogamy

I, too, enjoy video game character themes where the bassline goes all stuttery and a bitcrushed voice goes "bwuh" to inform you that the person before you is in fact some sort of Creature.

There can't possibly be that many examples of this, can there?

Hey sorry if I’m kinda weird I was supposed to be dead by now

listening to a man break up with his partner on the train and the first sentence I heard was "I just don't appreciate you cheating on me six different times, once with my own father."

This exact phenomenon is why there’s now a hyphen in my url.

just so we’re clear if you’ve never actually seen a cybertruck in person and have only seen photos of them i cannot stress enough how much worse they look in real life. like i honestly don’t know how it’s possible. most things look basically the same in pictures and in real life. but as stupid and ugly as cybertrucks look in photos, every person i’ve spoken to who has seen one in real life agrees that they somehow look even worse in person. and i know you’re thinking to yourself “tah they already look so bad in photos, how can they possibly look even worse in person?” I DONT KNOW. the first time i saw one on the road i was on a phone call and i literally cut myself off in the middle of a sentence just to be like “oh my GOD.” just an incredibly, laughably, unbelievably bad vehicle. i’ve never experienced anything like it. they’re just so bad
