Let's dig into Yacht Club's old school inspirations to understand why the game was designed the way it is, and why I love it for that.
]]>On the kind of stupid plot of The Boys season five, and the limits of using Homelander to satirize Trump.
]]>How my most anticipated game of 2024 ended up being kind of a slog that failed to capture what I love about the original Final Fantasy VII.
]]>For the sickos who want more, here's a bunch of thoughts that were cut from the main Rebirth review.
]]>My review of the flawed but intriguingly different followup to the 2010 cult classic, which has a lot to love if you approach it with an open mind. Come listen to me gush about its pixel art and soundtrack!
]]>A deep dive into the story of one of the most controversial IDW Sonic characters, and how algorithmic social media and fandom expectations made her so controversial in the first place. This is it, at long last: my big thesis on why the Sonic fandom on Twitter is like that, and my concern that it's starting to bleed into the comics.
]]>In this extra-long (and extra-late) year-end recommendation list we've got candy-themed tokusatsu action, transatlantic telegraph cables, horse girls, and a whole slew of cool indie games you might've missed in 2025.
]]>In which I use 2025's two big GOTY contenders as a springboard to ramble about various bits of indie dev discourse and the state of the creative field I work in, and also the fact that The Game Awards are a joke. Maybe I'll even talk about the actual games themselves a little! Imagine that!
]]>Clearly the result of development hell, but it's not that bad of a game. It's fine.
]]>I've returned to Hazbin Hotel for a followup review! Season 2 is a marked improvement in many ways, but is it enough to outweigh the show's continued issues with its tone, themes, and politics?
]]>I rewatched the first season of The Simpsons for the first time! It finds its groove way faster than people give it credit for, but the rough edges also kind of fascinate me.
]]>After a few weeks of playing, it's clear that this is the best Sonic racing game ever... but when it's so close to perfection, it makes the few aspects that are lacking only stand out to me.
]]>I rewatched Beast Wars, the beloved early CGI Transformers cartoon that I'd argue looks good, actually, and Beast Machines, its bizarre and controversial sequel that... well, okay, I don't love it, but it's at least interesting to talk about.
]]>Learn about my favorite games in this massive anthology, some of which have forever changed how I engage with retro games.
]]>Find out how that's been going and see videos of the little experimental games I made!
]]>Spoiler-filled thoughts where I talk about a bunch of random stuff I thought kicked ass, defend the importance of Chapter 3, and ponder where the story might go from here.
]]>The highs, the lows, Furman's legacy, and, yes... the disaster that is Spotlight: Arcee, and the fact that Furman kinda accidentally made all the Transformers gay.
]]>Yes, the one with jump jump slide slide. I'm serious.
]]>I rewatched one of my favorite shows of all time and wrote about whether or not I regret skipping half of season 2 on my first watch years ago, Anthony's theories as we were watching, Dougie Jones, and that unforgettable ending.
]]>I have fallen for the Witch's Trick
]]>The TOS movies, the TNG movies, the "Kelvin Timeline" movies, and, yes, even the dreadful new Section 31. My ranking of that last one will shock you. (It won't.)
]]>It's the first annual Ponett Awards! Read on for homoerotic super robot anime, black and white slapstick comedy, crazy ambitious fangames, and many more recommendations from throughout the year.
]]>My full thoughts on Sonic 3, a fun popcorn flick with a lot of Sonic Adventure 2 fanservice that's also still very much The Third Paramount Sonic Movie, for good and for ill.
]]>My experiences over on Bluesky, both positive and negative, and the ways in which I feel the design choices of the site are influencing user behavior. Come learn why I hate the Discover feed and how Starter Packs can be a curse.
]]>I've started watching DS9 for the first time, so let's talk about the underappreciated joys of early season weirdness. Don't listen to the people on Reddit, this season is good.
]]>Yes, this is primarily an excuse for me to gush about Daniel Warren Johnson's Transformers and Ryan North's Fantastic Four.
]]>A decent sidescroller that drove me a little crazy and made me consider where the line between loving homage and shameless copy lies.
]]>Comparing and contrasting the ways the three versions of the series portray Vash as a character, with both anime adaptations taking the source material in very different directions.
]]>Reminiscing on some wish fulfillment stories I wrote as a kid, and some creative decisions in them that were funny in hindsight.
]]>
