this site really did suck so fucking bad when its demographic was straighter

i don't believe such a time ever existed

this post always kills me bc i’m like 90% sure the picture behind him is this:

absolutely fascinated by this raw pixels on an emulator vs how the game was actually supposed to look on old tvs twitter

People say that old games dont look as good as they remember

Its because they legitimately dont.

The “fuzz” from CRT monitors was something that was definitely accounted for and taken advantage of back in the day when it came to video games! While this effect is noticeable in 3D games, it’s MUCH more visible when it comes to 2D sprites:

Just look how much more depth these simple sprites of Princess Peach and Bowser from Super Mario RPG seem to have when seen through the “dots” of a CRT TV screen!

I somehow did not know this!?!?!?

One of the clearest examples of this is using the effect for transparent waterfalls in the MegaDrive Sonic games

My absolutely favourite example of this is with Dracula's eyes in Castlevania

This is like telling a skater that they'd go faster if they used a car instead.

Good tags op

cyclops if he had laser hair instead of laser eyes

We are makings of a great forging and in the space between the celestial bodies, the scent of bright embers persists even in the dark.

dear diary . i no longer want to go to space because today i was informed that it smells like the interstate

there are 2 types of people

december???? what next??? 2024?????

And an evergreen reminder from a few years ago.

me: i don’t want to see jellyfish so i will blacklist the tag #jellyfish

people with no common sense: je11yf1sh, je11¥fi5h, j*llyf*sh, je//ÿf!sh, j3ï||yf¡sh, gel lee fisk

result: cannot account for the sheer amount of possible ways to alter the word jellyfish

conclusion: i have to see jellyfish now.

Once again, tumblr is not tiktok, tag properly.

“What’s your spirit animal?” We’re white Rebecca we don’t have spirit animals ask me what my fursona is like you meant to ask u fucking coward

“Oh do you mean a patronus?” No I fucking do not. Do not come at me with some made up ass Harry Potter bullshit

“you wear that a lot” yes that is because i, a proud owner of a washing machine,

google forcing firefox users to wait 5 seconds at the start of youtube videos as a “what, you can’t wait 5 secs to skip the ad? little baby wants to use adblocker?” is not only extremely petty and immature, but is also comes across like “it’s one banana. how much could it cost, $10?” like they’re so out of touch. they realize you can get 30 seconds of unskippable ads right? anyway, i’d take 5 seconds of loading over 5 seconds of advertisement any day

Jon he's really trying here cut him a break

(tumblr crunched the resolution of this comic a lot rip)

want to add that he didn't take a game. It wasn't close.

from the verge

you know what they say - best not miss

Fandom is so different now and it’s becoming un-fun with how quickly shit moves.

I just want to enjoy things. I don’t want to have to play a game of Artist-Race that seems to be afoot lately.

Ya’ll eat up fandoms, leave artists and writers bone dry and then move on so fucking quickly then fucking wonder where all the Good Fandom Stuff is.

Idk Maybe cherish some things for longer. Reblog stuff. Interact with people. Comment and share.

Fandom is Capitalism now and I’m not being nuanced.

English is great because I can say a single three letter word and people will assume I mean:

6. YouTube follower

7. a vague post

8. closed captions

9. a specific area of focus on reddit

I finally found a doctor that would remove my uterus and I had him preserve it in a jar for me. I gave it to a woman with a trans flag pin that said ‘MTF’ and told her the next time some idiot transphobe told her ‘real women have a uterus’, she could now reply with 100% honesty that she, in fact, did have a uterus and the transphobe could die mad about it.
