TV's Adam, muttering in the corner,
Video games, covid, and neurosis, not necessarily in that order. Providing 100 words when 10 would suffice since the mid-1980s. He/him
would like to talk about dragon quest
pfal.us (podcast i used to make)
youtube.com/@tvsmusic6398 (music i used to play)
- a level of being pathetic on the internet I’ve not encountered since “making sad song lyrics your AIM away message”
- (the “you” in this scenario is, of course, me)
- the NES Works about shadowgate contained a brief snippet of this 35-second loop from the Deja Vu NES port and it got in my head and it’s not stopping and now I can’t remember life before it started maybe it’s like the ring video and if I pass it along it’ll leave me sorry
- this song takes me back to a simpler time when I also didn’t know what the hell I was doing but it didn’t matter because I was playing a point and click adventure game and not raising children or whatever
- I would struggle to explain to someone lacking context why this picture of three dudes and two puppets makes me as happy as it does but I would still have a fun time trying
- Old friends, together again. @mst3kofficial.bsky.social rifftraxmakesmst3k.com
- it’s just… the dudes the puppets
- there's a new dragon quest tomorrow but i don't think i'll get to it for a bit because i've not yet finished the dragon quest that just came out a little while ago and also i've only gotten one ending in the fucking *excellent* new silent hill and man the world is a hellpit but video games are cool
- too many *dragon quests* to keep up with while being distracted by how good the *new silent hill* is i'd forgotten that times can occasionally be unprecedented in a good way
- i just discovered somebody put me on a list called "A LIST SPECIFICALLY FOR THE WORST EVER ANALOGY GUY" because of my one post from last month and it's just me on the list it's still weird to think about having made a bunch of strangers mad at me at once but also that's genuinely pretty funny
- if i have one regret from that whole thing it's when i leaned in and said it was a top-tier analogy and i was 100% correct because it's unreasonable to expect total strangers to clock that you're doing false bravado for the bit ...it *was* a pretty good one though 🤷♂️
- everyone who knows me knows the only bravado i ever have is false bravado
-
View full threadof course, when i wrote that i didn't really anticipate it being seen and interacted with by thousands of (mostly very nice!) people i anticipated it being liked by the same three people who usually like my posts and getting on with my day
- quite a few people whose sole expectation for a democratic presidential candidate is that they make donald trump go away seem to have uncharitable thoughts about "single-issue voters"
- Reposted by TV's Adam, muttering in the corner,worth noting that the second rich people stopped being afraid of mobs tearing them limb from limb, they stopped building libraries and opera houses and stuff and started ripping the copper wiring out of the walls of society instead
- if your “common sense” allows for the continued existence of a wildly overfunded squad of armed 4chan racists that exists specifically to harm people then your sense is only in common with fascists and should be completely disregarded by actually sensible people
- abide by the same rules as local police; they also get to murder people but they usually get put on administrative leave for a bit afterward
- "abolish ICE" remains the *moderate* position "every single employee of the agency faces jail time" is, i would say, center-left, and personally i'm somewhere to the left of that i would be willing to vote for someone holding the moderate position, but i do not vote for right-wing candidates
- Reposted by TV's Adam, muttering in the corner,anyone want to come over? we can stand across from each other and do this
- i readily trust nadia oxford on matters of dragon quest, and she is extremely correct about kiefer's weird, weird face it also occurs to me that while i don't like the idea of a bunch of stuff getting cut, i almost certainly wouldn't be able to recall what was actually missing anyway
- kiefer's face was always weird and they have only made it weirder
- tf do you mean I can’t play with the glass baby food jars this is *bullshit* this plastic pouch is a pathetic substitute it doesn’t clink dada it doesn’t fucking CLINK
- she has never been angrier at me in her life
- i have seen more than one person calling for rifftrax to do the melania movie and i must respectfully disagree, for more or less the same reason that i would not like a rifftrax version of triumph of the will
- the thing about a rifftrax of the melania movie that i feel like people aren't taking into consideration is that it would require us to watch the melania movie i would watch 10,000 birdemics before i would watch the melania movie once 100,000 the rooms 600,000 things...es
- i would create untold numbers of rem lezars i would set up an infinity of rooms i would shake hands with every conceivable danger i would have well-done steaks with the guy from harlem ...actually that last one sounds pretty ok
- if you read this and you're getting these references congratulations we are bros now
- Reposted by TV's Adam, muttering in the corner,If you campaigned for the presidency on a promise to destroy these assholes, you would win a landslide the size of FDR in 1936, when he campaigned on a promise to destroy these assholes.
- now when they execute people in the street in broad daylight we'll have footage shot from a slightly different angle than all the other footage we already have of them executing people in the street in broad daylight, including the footage they shoot themselves while executing people in broad dayli-
- that they are simply agreeing to do this says everything that needs to be said about the impact it will have on their ongoing terror campaign
- body cams will have precisely the same amount of influence on ICE's crime spree as it would to make them put one of those "coexist" bumper stickers on all their otherwise unmarked vehicles
- i mean *yeah* www.kickstarter.com/projects/rif...
- i loved joel's revival of the series and thought both iterations of the new cast did a great job, but man, hearing kevin and bill voicing those puppets again made me feel *feelings*
- i didn't have comedy central growing up so my first real introduction to the show (apart from randomly happening upon the Alien from LA episode one day and thinking it was the *greatest fucking thing i'd ever seen*) was the sci-fi era this is very good that this is happening is what i'm saying
