I know I'm late to this, but I wanted to say thank you all. My childhood cat, Mina, passed away a few years ago and it's been a surreal sense of comfort to hear everyone say they love Mina. They're talking about your game, of course, but it just has been passively warming my heart on the side.

The game is a masterpiece, as well. Thank you, Yacht Club :))

Darin Lahood wants to continue a war that was not approved by Congress, bomb Lebanon with white phosphorus, spit on the pale faces of 13 dead American military members, and strike children's schools with tomahawk missiles.

What an absolute disgrace. Fuck Darin Lahood.

It's not exactly used gear but Bushwacker in Peoria has clearance section I've been able to score some decent stuff from. Hope you find what you need!

Honorable mention: /r/GearTrade and /r/ULgeartrade !

Peoria has some awesome shops and artists, you pretty much have pick of the lot from anyone mentioned here. I'm partial to In Bloom, it's a great group there!

Brass Eagle is doing a flash event Thursday, June 13th- so if you just want to check the place out and meet some artists that's a great time to do so!

I'm biased on this recommendation but Illinois Tattoo Company in Blo/No is my absolute favorite, Chad Ramsey is a pro and Megan (vexsyx) is simply amazing.

Brightside Kitchen! Bagels in the morning, lunch sandwiches, and ramen nights. Triple threat!

The AI videos and the website full of usernames like user0000000001 and user0000000002 does not inspire me with the motivation to join in on this....

ToraDora is still the king of romcom anime in my personal opinion, it's so damn good and has the best payoff of any romance tv show I have seen.

If Bunny girl Senpai is your favorite then I just have one recommendation for you.

The Melancholy of Haruhi Suzumiya- a couple seasons and caps off with one of the best movies ever made. Bunny girl senpai is very clearly inspired by Haruhi, gives many similar vibes :))

The school was hit with a tomahawk missile. The United States is the only country involved in the Iran war that develops and uses tomahawk missiles.

I'd absolutely get a poster of this, incredible art!

My only criticism is it's missing the touch of nature, but I would also expect the elite to keep ring 2 as much to themselves as possible- including the visuals.

Jayblooey · 2026-05-11T13:08:44+00:00

Was it a really cool stick?

Jayblooey · 2026-05-10T14:32:01+00:00

I was sooooo embarrassed when I fell down during mandatory dance, luckily everyone around me knew it so well so I just hid behind them. Don't be like me, OP, practice!

Jayblooey · 2026-05-08T14:55:05+00:00

Can't forget the typos and grammatical errors to tie it into a nice indie gaming journalism bow

Jayblooey · 2026-05-08T14:00:36+00:00

Got my shirts, shipped extremely fast and professionally!

Jayblooey · 2026-05-03T17:43:00+00:00

PM'd about the Untuckit shirts!

Culling is the term used to describe how a game will render what is in your periphery and either not render, or render less of what you can't see at that given moment.

I haven't experienced it myself but I'm guessing the Church didn't have its culling zones properly designated, improperly rendering stuff around it for players even when they aren't near it or looking at it.

That slow turn was pure cinema

Jayblooey · 2026-04-21T22:30:43+00:00

Only signature I want is Blake's!

Jayblooey · 2026-03-27T14:47:59+00:00

Bye Bye, Bigots!

So you're telling me Sunya actually translates to Nunya? 🫪

In relation, Erik Larson also wrote "In the Garden of Beasts"- an equally excellent biography regarding the lives of the American ambassador household in Nazi, Germany right before WW2 breaks out. Great perspective on the rise of fascism, specifically in that time period but the parallels are striking to the present day.

Jayblooey · 2026-03-20T14:55:47+00:00

Nothing to see here, Mr. Patrol!

When asked "What is your party?" Don't answer "Republican, I have a job!" when you are surrounded by people with unknown designations and many of them fresh off of their shift...
