Reply to Braid Anniversary Edition has ‘sold like dog sh*t’, creator Jonathan Blow says | VGC by hollyhoppet

i dont want to be like "heh obviously 😏" but seeing this on sale i thought "does anybody really want this???"

braid was obviously prominent back in the days of xbla but it was not important enough to warrant a rerelease with 15 hours of commentary. i might say it only thrived because it was on a marketplace that was a: quite popular and b: only released like 2 games a week or something. times have changed so much since 2008!!! braid is not interesting in 2024!

Reply to comment by twovests in its been like a week and nobody even cares that trump got his ear shot off lol. the future is so cool by neku

i havent been keeping track of this one but it doesnt make sense to me. we all saw blood on his face. how did it get there if he wasn't hit slightly? obviously it didnt do much damage, but still.

otoh hes probably been such a total drama queen like ohhh my eaaar 😭😭😭. hes probably so pissed that the national conversation moved on from his attempted assassination in 12 hours and is now shifting toward "actually did this guy even get hit at all". the most beleaguered man in america

in some of the more drawn out lines the nasally tones in the spongebob ai voice are like, damningly similar to those of a b-tier early 90s emo/math rock band vocalist

also i think that the original song is quite compelling so even though i was listening to spongebob ai voice i was like "damn bro i sympathise with you and understand why you feel wronged even though i dont think hatsune miku necessarily did anything wrong in this situation" before remembering that this is Somebody That I Used to Know Spongebob Squarepants Hatsune Miku Cover

Reply to Is it possible the dems actually have something resembling a plan? by flabberghaster

hmm i think that they assumed that they would be able to coast through this election Weekend at Bernie's-ing biden by emphasising trump's criminal charges, rape scandals, fearmongering about project 2025, etc. bad polling against trump was waved away by saying that it was republican biased (remember that isaac chotiner interview with that guy who ran "hopium chronicles" or whatever? that guy was a dem party insider, so to some extent i think that they've started believing their own propaganda like many republicans tend to). i think they thought that biden could outperform trump at the debates as well in terms of intelligibility but they overestimated his ability to orate at this stage and underestimated how "baked-in" trump's incoherence is to the wider electorate. think about how every vote blue no matter who guy was shrieking "the lugenpresse are focusing on "Biden's" "Dementia" while IGNORING how stupid trump sounds!!!" for a couple days there. trump's brain was 90% cocaine in 2016 and it is the same way today, but people were genuinely surprised by biden's inability to carry a debate. the donors that pay for nancy pelosi's stock market purchases got spooked and thought that biden was too cooked to outperform trump (probably not wrong given the polls) and started making calls so the plan had to change.
