I feel like this may prove to be the most prescient cartoon of the 21st century.
Installed the iOS 18 developer beta. Holy cow, these dark mode and tinted icon options are absolutely atrocious. And annoyingly I cannot make my widgets adhere to the “dark mode” appearance setting without enabling these dark mode app icons also. Apple, please fix this!

You gotta admit Wile E. Coyote going through the entire process of making a movie just for it be scrapped as a tax write off is incredibly on brand for him
Whenever I see a partly obscured tweet with a “subscribe to unlock” button over it from an account I’m following, I instantly unsubscribe… got no time for this nonsense. There is no world in which I pay to read someone’s tweets.
My favorite memories of Puzzle Bobble are with my kids. I have a Neo Geo at home & from age 5 onward my daughter became obsessed with it. She draws Puzzle Bobble art in kindergarten — I’m sure her teacher was confused. She sleeps with a Puzzle Bobble plush that she named “Poe”❤️

When a private citizen can pay $44 billion for a media company — “the world’s town square” — and both crash the civility of the discourse and incinerate 17 years of brand equity within 10 months …. we have too much concentration of wealth in the hands of too few.
Look ma, no cables! Thanks @8bitmods and @bixxewoscht! Now I gotta track down a second NSO N64 controller. This is super impressive.
My long-awaited USB-2-PCE is finally here. Finally, a solid wireless controller option for my PC Engine. And it looks super clean with this right-angle DIN cable I found. Gonna break it in with a NEXZR run. Kudos @RobertDaleSmith 🍻
