do not expect me to like or take any inspiration or characters or anything from the new smurf movie coming out btw. Not with the antisemitic character in it.

Preservation is dead

In "honor" of the Lilo and Stitch remake being out some time around now, since I'm not touching that with a 50 ft pole I decided to rewatch the original instead.

You know what I somehow missed every time I've watched the movie until now? Cobra Bubbles drives up to find the Pelekais' house literally blown up. The most obvious non alien related cause of something like this is a gas explosion. (I think an earlier draft / deleted scene had it actually be one instead of a plasma gun, but you know what I mean).

What did Cobra find when he first visited the house three days earlier? Lilo home alone, and pots and pans boiling over on the stove, because Lilo was messing with it. This is not just "Nani is now homeless," what this looks like is "Nani left Lilo home again, Lilo was messing with the stove again and turned on the gas without igniting it, and would have died if she hadn't left the house. She called Cobra saying something about aliens attacking the house, which sounds a lot like a child playing pretend, but also like a child who's having hypoxia induced hallucinations from being in a house full of natural gas."

I believe Cobra was aware Stitch was an alien but avoiding blowing his cover until he could figure out what to do about it, so he may have believed that aliens attacking Lilo's house was plausible, but there is absolutely no way in hell he could have explained this to Social Services and what it looks like is so incredibly bad there was no way he could possibly justify not immediately removing Lilo from Nani's care. Presumably after having three different alien ships land on Kauai he was able to get the CIA's cooperation in providing a cover story that didn't put any blame on Nani, but yikes. His hands were so tied there.

(Also I'm pretty sure Lilo was cooking roadkill. Which also does not look good on a report. I'm now wondering if this was supposed to be some sort of ritual she found in Practical Voodoo?)

it's called the Switch 2 because you Switch 2 a cheaper hobby

UM GUYS. I JUST NOTICED A CRAZY ISSUE W THE TUMBLR UPDATE.

all digital artists like to play a game called what fucking layer is that dot on

"male loneliness epidemic" is misleading because it implies that men are suffering because they can't get girls when I feel like the actual problem is that pretty much any online content that's aimed specifically at men conceptualizes the masculine ideal as what I call the Buff Scammer. there are only two things in this world that matter, says the Buff Scammer: being jacked and making money. how you get to either of those things doesn't matter, you just need to be as rich and as buff as possible or you have failed as a man. Get into drop shipping. Eat nothing but raw meat. Rugpull a memecoin. Remove seasonings from your diet. Sell an online course. Go to the gym daily. Starve yourself so your body will achieve ketosis and start burning fat. Attend a seminar on real estate investing. Work 80 hours a week. Take steroids but don't let anyone know about that part. Flip a YouTube channel after 10xing the subs. Sell AI art on Etsy and AI audiobooks on Amazon. What's that? You're trying to do this to get girls? Why would you care about women? Women are all stupid whores who don't help you get richer or buffer. The only people you should be paying attention to are other rich, buff men. If you do hang out with women you should be pimping them out on Chaturbate so you can at least get an ROI off your time spent not thinking about men. Male friends? You don't have time for friends. You should be hustling and grinding 24/7 365. And if you absolutely do need to spend time around other men you should only be spending time with other buff scammers so you can collaborate on entrepreneurial ventures. Like Jesus Christ even writing this is exhausting I feel like trying to be this dude would be fucking miserable like not only did you turn yourself into a friendless, materialist, misogynistic asshole who can only conceptualize the world in terms of value extracted but you're NOT EVEN HAVING FUN DOING IT!!!!!!

We literally cannot let them start charging 80 dollars for video games 70 dollars was already outrageous 60 was pushing it. 80 fucking dollars. ARE YOU OUT OF YOUR DAMN MIND. For MARIO?!?!?!?!?

A few days ago I made a couple of tweets about metaphors for transness in Deltarune and it seemed like it resonated with a few people. 

I wrote some more since I couldn’t stop thinking about it. 

CWs: Discussion of transphobia and gender dysphoria.

Honestly?? I’m glad that Tomodachi Life will be also for the Nintendo Switch cause if it came out for only NS2 you wouldn’t hear from me

It’s gonna be interesting to see how Nintendo chooses to address same-sex romance in Tomodachi Life: Living the Dream.

Tomodachi Life was already rather infamous for lacking it, and in 2026 I’m not sure Living the Dream can get away with the same thing. Especially given that the games entire mantra is a chaotic life sim. The more limitations a company imposes, the less chaos that can reign, which could really piss consumers off.

But on the flip side, if they’re going to include it, how are they going to include it?

Will it just be on by default? Will reactionaries and pissbabies go running to Twitter because their Mii look-alike said they wanted to kiss someone of the same gender (even though TdL always gives the player the option to refuse)?

Will Nintendo include an option to dictate which Miis any given Mii is attracted to–some kinda of corporate-washed sexuality system where the Mii maker has a “who is this Mii romantically interested in” question?

Will Nintendo go The Sims 4’s route and disable same-sex romance all-together until the player manually initiates at least two relationships.

Will Nintendo become the first game company with the gall to add a “gay shit” settings toggle?

I’m interested to find out. Admittedly, if they chicken out and don’t include it again, my interest for the game will disappear. But if they do (and hopefully they will), I’m interested in finding out which option Nintendo of all companies will choose.
