"We’re talking about tearing down City Hall for this woman?"

Dallas Mavericks owner Miriam Adelson urges Trump to run for third term.

"[S]he understands $250 million is merely 0.6 percent of her wealth. Right now, Adelson is like the Mark Cuban of our government. She’s a minority owner. With some pocket change, she can gain more power."

Mark Lamster says don't tear down City Hall - D Magazine

"In general, it’s saddening how feckless this city is when it comes to maintaining the buildings and spaces that it owns. Specifically on this City Hall thing, I think it’s great that the News publishes a strong voice like Lamster’s, a middle finger in its own face. It serves the city well."

Could FIFA pull the World Cup from the United States? ⚽ 🏆 🌎

"A few weeks ago, I started hearing some trusted voices in my orbit suggest that FIFA World Cup reconsider 2026 in North America, or shift to Canada and Mexico only. I thought it seemed crazy. Not so much now. Watch FIFA." - Juliette Kayyem

#LANoire #ActionButton #TimRogers

Oh geez, a new Action Button video is live-premiering on youtube right now and I think it's going to be 10 hours long
(according to the timestamps)

#TimRogers #ActionButton

A black-and-white screencap of the video. A man in detective-like clothing is walking along a US West Coast area (I think, according to the visible trees), just in the bottom left part of the screen. The following text is large and centered in the style of an old movie: "Action button pictures presents Tim Rogers in"

"What’s excessive about contemporaneous commentary tracking someone who’s completely dominated the public conversation for almost a decade?"

Katamari Damacy Turns 20
Paste Magazine has a piece up on Namco's seminal Playstation 2 game Katamari Damacy turning 20. It's still one of those titles that has the power to attract attention when they see it played, especially if they've never heard of it before.

In case you haven't heard of it (is that possible?)--you,

Rewrote a #Blog post from years ago.

It is about #TimRogers

The first draft was written right after my diagnosis and I was still pretty psychotic.

So I rewrote a big chunk of it.

It is extremely short right around eight hundred words.

the piece it titled - What if Oedipus was my dad? (a reframing of the past).

I feel like it’d be a great time for Tim Rogers to release his next Action Button review

#ActionButton is getting traction because of the new iPhone and he could use that!

(But I also would just like to watch more of his stuff, please)

"It's really hard to figure out what the worst David Cage game is, isn't it? (...) By virtue of having Willem Dafoe in it, "Beyond: Two Souls" might just, by default, be the worst one. Because Willem Dafoe rules, and to see him be Willem defiled by being in a David Cage game is really, really sad."
Tim Rogers, in "Insert Credit" episode 303.

"They revered Pac-Man because it was too interesting to be perfect." - Tim Rogers.

#QuoteOfTheDay #Quote #Pacman #TimRogers

Tim rogers six-hour review of Tokimeki Memorial has quotes like.

"These were weird, deeply interesting tears."

I have been reading his work since like 2001 and it is a significant influence on my worldview and writing.

I can not convince you to watch a six-hour review of an anime dating sim...But I loved it. I never played the game. Yes, I do want to play it now. And I have watched it more than once.

Are there books about video game history but with added social context, for example. Sort of a #TimRogers riff where games are replaced in a broader scope.
Like, I’m not really into it if you tell me about games from top to bottom, with dates and sales etc. But if you talk about them and add the human factor, the social side of it, then gimme.
The history of DQ? Meh. The history of DQ with side talks about the crazy buying lines, the importance of it at the time etc. Then yeah.
