    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    I think maybe I was unclear; what I meant was that the whole "you play D&D? <scoff> You should play a good game instead" attitude is the security blanket. Like... everybody knows how counterproductive and condescending it is but some people just cannot let it go.

    Itch.io is shadowbanning or deleting NSFW and LGBTQ content

    Sweet baby is probably a reference to Sweet Baby Inc., a perfectly normal sensitivity consultation firm in the video game industry that became something of a rallying call for the sorts of folks who make lists of games to boycott because they might have a gay character or woman with any sense of...

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    I swear for some people this exact attitude is their security blanket. They fall back on it because they don't know anything else, and it's deeply comforting. Ah yes, the absolutely singular way in which South Carolina is superior is North Carolina; SC BBQ sauce is far and away the best BBQ sauce.

    John Kovalic Looks Back On Over Two Decades Of Munchkin

    Our favorite was always to mix Munchkin Bites with Munchkin Cthulhu. Swarming cultists was like the new version of running the Elvish Mafia from the original game

    Pineapple Express: Someone Is Wrong on the Internet?

    This title makes me think of a home design show hosted by Kurt Russell and James Hong, which, I'm not gonna lie, I would watch the hell out of

    What videogames are you playing in 2025?

    Been playing Final Fantasy X because Clair Obscur was so good it reminded it how much I loved another one of my favorite games (and I have no way of playing Lost Odyssey currently) and chat, it's still absolutely awesome. Also Blitzball rules I will be taking no questions
