today we learned: apparently, in the UK, hunting is seen as a posh thing that rich people do

here in the US it's seen as a low-brow kind of thing, basically the exact opposite

For some reason, I'm thinking about the opening quote from Tales of Phantasia: "If there is evil in this world, it lurks in the hearts of man."

I don't know why exactly i'm thinking about that, but it's something we've always kinda just remembered, even through big memory-damaging events

it's not a particularly profound thing or anything, but it's a lot more so than we-at-the-time expected to see from a video game

Fun fact: one of the first things that was intentionally cooked in a microwave oven was a whole egg, still in its shell, cooked by one of the people working on developing the microwave oven into a product that could be sold.

Anyone who knows what happens to eggs in a microwave can probably guess what happened.

For anyone who doesn't know what happens: don't try this. The egg explodes and it's probably a nightmare to clean.

it's a nazi/alt-right dogwhistle and i don't wanna see it. do not use it in any context. don't just stop using it around me but continue using it around others. just don't use it at all. if you hear someone else say it tell them to stop too. if they refuse to stop even after you have informed them then that should be raising some serious red flags

i am going to be implementing a block on sight no questions asked policy going forward

everyone talks about the game genie or the action replay but the ones from our childhood, the gameshark and monster brain, get ignored all the time

actually how many people even know the monster brain exists

it's spoilers to say who it's applied to but there's a video game where one of the character themes (for a villain, obviously) is titled "(name), the Acting God" and that's just. Extremely good

just once i'd like to see a video game put what is very obviously an entrance to a secret passage somewhere, even interactable but it just says it's locked or something, and then literally never have it come up in the game at all
