I don't mind the content, but this guy starts the video by poisoning the well against himself. At least, when somebody describes using technology to launder drone strikes, that's what it does to me.

Okay, but did you get to watch Barbenheimer in 2023?

I only played Postal Brain Damaged because I liked 2 so much, and that's how I found out about boomer shooters to begin with!

As for Postal 4... Would not recommend. Sadly.

The studio that makes those games, makes the best in their genre and is somehow punching above their weight. I got Elderborn too after playing Postal Brain Damaged and was impressed.

Everybody likes different genres, and this one probably wouldn't be mine, but it was entrancing and I basically immediately poured all my free time into it too. Totally worth the buy.

Postal Brain Damaged. If you like boomer shooters,

It's got charming art and level designs, satisfying weapons, and a whole lot of irreverence.

I'm out of the daydreaming phase because I've beaten it a few times, but it's still my comfort food game of choice.

I think it's the gamification. Mastodon degamifies Twitter in a way Lemmy can't really do with the classic Reddit system.

Votes go up, votes go down, you can see people winning and losing here. It's fun, even if it's in a bad way.

Mastodon having a way bigger algorithm curve before you start seeing interesting stuff remains throughout.

Technically? It's 3 years off from antique.

Over 100 comments and nobody mentioned Biden spoke approvingly of a union leader during the SOTU

And even if Trump and Biden were identical in Gaza, there's also ~20 million LGBT people in the United States and a domestic genocide would actually be bad too (even if Americans are culturally imperialist or something).

Sure looks antisemitic. For example:

I love me a movie that can carry itself through aesthetics alone!

Take On Me because the rotoscoping work is amazing, and now more movies need to embrace it.

  • closest movie: Cool World, which is basically an avant-garde music video of its own, with people transitioning between the 2D and 3D worlds

Turbo Killer because it has fast cars, violence, and Satanism

  • closest movie: Rock and Rule, set in a furry cyberpunk dystopia "where magic and technology collide", featuring glowing pentagons and shiny (not as fast) cars
  • second closest movie: Nicolas Cage's Mandy. Just wait for it...
