Oh wow, Steam points... I didn't know they existed either. I have 118,000 of them, it seems.

Apparently, I'm on 280000. Never felt so rich and yet so poor.

No, wait, it's just poor.

A million points is rather impressive, yes.

From their blog:

Every now and then I'll click somewhere on Steam and see that I have some wealth of Steam Points, I think it's something like eight hundred and sixty thousand, and get curious about what can be done with them. Not much, friends! Not much. You can buy gifs and stuff. You can also award people's posts with badges you buy with them or some shit. They could be sort of a profound thing with all kinds of ramifications but I don't really think anybody "owns" that internally. At least, I hope they don't! That would make everything else I said very hurtful and mean. It could be ballin', an industry defining loyalty program I would actually give a shit about, but it isn't and I guess it doesn't have to be.

Yeah, that was what I found as well. Loads of points, nothing really worth buying, except maybe if you're a kid really into game culture, but then you wouldn't really have the budget to build up those points anyway.

Yeah, I found that "points shop" after reading this, and... well, nothing is screaming "buy me!" to me. It's probably more interesting to those who use the Steam forums.

Been a while, but this comic made me literally laugh out loud: Six Pack.

Gabe desperately trying to warn readers away from Tycho's rants about realistic depictions of... mammalian attributes in Unicorn Overlord is worth some kind of award.

Joke's still on them, foxes have eight (and sometimes up to ten) nipples, so that wouldn't be a six pack either.

Of course, this also assumes that the fox women are giving birth to litters. If they have a more human rate of reproduction, then they only need the standard human equipment.

...this is how furries get made, isn't it? Asking questions like this?

Sometimes you get monster girl enthusiasts instead. Depends on the subject.

Extramural

Gabe doesn't get Shōgun (2024). Too much historical research. And the Fruit Fucker apparently really enjoys grocery shopping.

Carnal

In which Tycho interrogates Gabe over his iRacing rig and its uncanny resemblance to fetish gear.

Converse x Lockheed Martin

That is indeed one of the more hilariously dark parts of the latest Monsterverse film: Kong using a baby Kong as an improvised weapon.

Bazed And Confused

If you aren't monetizing your enjoyment of games, you are a loser. So says the Baze.
