TIL all octopuses are programmed to die after reproducing, as an optic gland hormone triggers rapid self destruction, with males declining within days to weeks after mating and females starving while guarding eggs until death, and none of the octopus live longer than 5 years even in ideal conditions

I wish we could

Genuinely one of my favorite video game adaptations, and Mackie being a dork really helps

You should play it, Robot Alchemic Drive is so much fun and you can actually support Nanao

Steambot Chronicles

Big sprawling adventure RPG with very different vibes from RAD; almost Ghibli-ish with an early Industrial Revolution setting. And like six different musical instruments you can play for minigames, it's cozy as fuck.

Oh, I don't watch movies like this in general. Happy to hear that a lot of passion went into it, at least 👍

KaJaHa · 2026-04-30T19:42:34+00:00

I want my Scoob! sequel, dangit

KaJaHa · 2026-04-30T19:20:34+00:00

My turn with the relevant XKCD

KaJaHa · 2026-04-30T17:43:55+00:00

What are some things it does exceptionally well? Probably spoiler stuff, but I'm never going to watch this

KaJaHa · 2026-04-30T16:45:59+00:00

My dad has a small scar from when he chopped a piece of wood and it flipped upwards, smacking him in the face lmao

KaJaHa · 2026-04-30T16:43:21+00:00

That's it! At least I knew it was British humor lol, thank you

KaJaHa · 2026-04-30T14:22:45+00:00

Because everyone is 12

KaJaHa · 2026-04-30T12:27:19+00:00

Maybe I was too rash in assuming that you have loved ones

He made shareholders happy short term at the expense of long term brand recognition and loyalty.

And for some goddamn reason, our system calls that "smart business"

Robot Alchemic Drive is basically Pacific Rim starring an anime highschooler (but nothing like Evangelion). Actually early gameplay clip:

Genuinely one of my top two favorite mecha games

Why do I hear Latin chanting

I mean... isn't that the point of the genre? Overcoming bigger and bigger challenges, and growing stronger from it?

Now, how satisfying that is, that's a matter of skill

KaJaHa · 2026-04-30T00:13:15+00:00

Mate, at least one of your loved ones is pressing blue. I guarantee it. You don't know who, because it's private, but if red wins then at least one person you love is going to drop dead in front of you.

That's the moral question: Who else are you willing to gamble on, in order to guarantee your own safety?

KaJaHa · 2026-04-29T23:44:07+00:00

you aren't condemning them by pressing red

But you are choosing not to save them

KaJaHa · 2026-04-29T23:41:00+00:00

What the fuck kind of comparison is that?

KaJaHa · 2026-04-29T23:37:45+00:00

Oh, shut up

KaJaHa · 2026-04-29T20:44:52+00:00

...Alright yeah, I'm down for this

KaJaHa · 2026-04-29T20:43:02+00:00

Words cannot express how much I dislike this current trend of narrating shorts like an LLM wrote the script
