    OK, now hear me out first

    Reddit is the halo of social media.

    The wildness you used to get up to on the multilayer was on a new level. There was nothing like that before. On one level you were fighting back the orange hordes from the front pages, the next level you were fighting wealth hording dragons and ripping them off by playing them at their own game. On the last level they let you have freedom on, they were gearing up to try and kill a god. I mean, I don’t know how far antiwork would have gone in the end but it seemed to have been estimated far enough that action had to be taken and the threat neutralised. We might well not have killed that particular God but I reckon we could’ve given them a bloody nose all the same.

    Then they parted ways with the people who actually made the game good and what you ended up with is a shite, soulless over corporatised shell of what it was before, thats little more than the skins from a game you used to enjoy transposed into one that you don’t.

    Reddit is Bloodborne

    Okay this might be the comment that makes Ted Kaczinsky’s manifesto take on new meaning and inspiration for me

    Twitter is actually 1982’s classic erotic Atari 2600 game "Beat 'em and eat 'em.

    There’s Vladimir Putin at the top of the building, firing his pixellated ejaculate over the side and the player controls both Elon Musk and Donald Trump, running left and right with their mouths open to collect it.

        Hahaha. Oops. That one was automatic/accidental, but I’m not going to change it :)

        As mentioned above/below, perhaps it should have been wikipædia :)

        I was also delighted by the little bonus “a” in that spelling! I’ve been trying to remember to use the æ symbol in those cases though i don’t get to use it nearly as fræquently as I’d like… At least not properlæ 😉

    Twitter is one of those shitty asset flip survival horrors.

    He just paid an exhorberent amount of money for other other people’s work, gave it some basic connecting code and slapped his branding on it and ended up with a product worth less that the sum total of the assets bought to make it.

    Oh and you’re constantly trying to avoid Elon and his right wing ghouls, but it just constantly spawns them in front of you and winning is basically impossible.
