  • My Summer Car isn’t even really a racing game, it’s a Finland simulator that happens to involve fixing a car. And it’s also possibly the best “actions have consequences” game. An example: There is a local drunk you can sell booze to, who will regularly call you and ask for a ride home from the pub. Spoilers follow.

    1

    If you stiff him by selling him bottles filled with water instead of alcohol, he will slash your tires and cut your brake lines.

    2

    After giving him several rides home, he will drunkenly confide in you about winning the lottery, not having told his wife, and that he hid a suitcase full of money in the woods. You can actually find this suitcase and steal his money.

    3

    If you steal the money, some time later, you’ll go to sleep and awaken to him in your bedroom with an axe, about to kill you. You can knock him out and escape fairly easily, however

    4

    at the end of the game if you’ve stolen the money his body will be found swinging from a noose underneath a nearby bridge, and will have left a suicide note pinned to his front door by an axe.


  • the best racing/driving game I know is Motor Town: Behind the Wheel.

    Don’t let the graphics fool you. Check out nexusmods, get the most popular ones and hoon to your hearts content – it’s not quite as deep as BeamNG or My Summer Car (which I also recommend, but they are not my favorites), but you can do some very goofy shit (1000HP EV engine in a go-kart is a personal favorite). Plus there’s tons more to do besides just races. It looks like a deceptively simple game, it is not.









  • you know, if there’s any comfort for you all, let it be this: even if trump is too old to ever see serious repercussions for his actions, there are a lot of younger men in his administration who will have lots of time down the line to think on their sins, including that little worm Carr.

    if any of you reading this live to see it and I don’t, tell them all I said I hope they enjoyed their time fucking around and that they have a very merry finding out.






  • It’s gonna get a whole lot worse before things get better, but they’ll be remembered as some of the first, yes.

    personally I’m of the opinion that society goes in cycles, generally, if you know history. We’re either about to have civil war or mass revolt, I’m pretty sure – when the circuses are still going but there is no bread, for millions, and it’s only getting worse – that’s generally when shit gets real. Massive, massive oversimplification, mind you; but more and more people in the US are feeling the economic squeeze that republicans (and by extension also, late-stage capitalism) pile on more every year.

    In other words, we’re in the opening paragraphs to a very long chapter in some high schooler’s history class on this period of American history in the future – probably also lumped into an economics class with the 1929 stock market crash and the consequences thereof. How it will be written about I shudder to imagine, but you’ll have a lot of “patron saints of fucking around/finding out/delivering unto thee the finding out”.





  • No Sunlight - Death Cab for Cutie

    When I was young
    Lying in the grass
    I felt so safe
    In a warming bath
    Of sunlight, of sunlight
    The vast open sky
    Could do no harm
    Like an embrace
    Of a mother's arms
    In sunlight, in sunlight
    In sunlight, in sunlight
    With every year
    That came to pass
    More clouds appeared
    'Til the sky went black
    And there was no sunlight, no sunlight
    And there was no sunlight, no sunlight anymore
    And it disappeared at the same speed
    As the idealistic things I believed
    When the optimist died inside of me
    No sunlight, no sunlight
    No sunlight, no sunlight
    It disappeared at the same speed
    As the idealistic things I believed
    When the optimist died inside of me
    No sunlight, no sunlight
    No sunlight, no sunlight
    No sunlight, no sunlight
    No sunlight, no sunlight
    No sunlight anymore
