Turns out Sugimori's early 1993 Pokémon artwork of Kangaskhan was blue! First time ever seeing this in color thanks to @Area51_zek.

私はlongcatのオーナーでした。 彼女は亡くなったけれど、彼女と一緒に暮らした猫であるちび黒は、今も彼女を覚えています。 もちろん、私たちも。 私はいろんな国の幸せな猫たちの写真が見たいです。 BBQで交流しているように、猫で国際交流ができると嬉しいです。

After a significant amount of time, chipping away on and off, I have finally completed what I'm sure is the first ever "Lyrical Walkthrough" for what I'm sure is one of the best games ever... Cave Story. Enjoy... youtube.com/playlist?list=PL…

My Tsukhime Trial Edition (月姫 体験版) finally arrived, one of only 50 copies in the world. Only to discover that US Customs had removed all the bubble wrap and physically destroyed the floppy disk. Will file a report but literally crying right now😭 #TYPEMOON #Tsukihime #月姫

Young people may not know this but there was a time when the internet had thousands of quirky, informative websites, when you could spend hours browsing and come away smarter rather than dumber. We have seen a wonderful thing destroyed in our lifetimes.
I genuinely believe this is the worst era of the Internet in regards to the user experience.

It's crazy to me that we're almost in 2026 and there's still big YouTubers saying nonsense like this. Reinvent the wheel? Aiming imprecise? GoldenEye INVENTED the wheel for modern controls. The N64 stick allows for unmatched precision.

IMDB users are one of the dumbest groups on the entire internet, their ratings are based solely on plot momentum. All of them are so completely and utterly addicted to reveal-slop, their ratings are basically worth nothing. E7 was maybe the best of the show so far
Pluribus S1E7: "The Gap" is the lowest rated episode for the series.

Every couple generations we remove a load bearing rule because the problem no longer exists and find out why the rule existed.
The Athletic polled hundreds of players from across the NBA, NFL, MLB and NHL about their opinions surrounding how sports betting impacts players — the responses were haunting.

If you get off at East Broadway and exit at Madison Street, you can see a poster for Pokémon: The First Movie, which had its U.S. release in 1999. It was hiding beneath decades worth of other posters pasted on top, which were just removed, revealing this from 26 years ago.

We are deeply saddened by the passing of James Carter Cathcart, the voice behind Professor Oak, Gary Oak, James and Meowth of Team Rocket, and other iconic characters for the Pokémon animated series over many years. In addition to his voice work, James provided over 700 episodes of scripts for the animated series, shaping the stories that defined generations of fans. From the very first episode to the final journeys, James brought warmth, humor, and unforgettable charm to the world of Pokémon. His talent gave life to some of our most beloved characters, and his legacy will continue to reach the hearts of Trainers everywhere. James’s voice will always be part of our adventure. Our thoughts and condolences are with his family and friends.

It's been only 18 hours and the Smash Remix 2.0.0 trailer is already closing in on 250k views and in the top 30 trending videos on YouTube... Incredibly proud of the work our video team pulled off this time and I think this is gonna be the first one to hit that 1m+ milestone 😃
