One of the biggest gaming sites around was just blown up
Jesus Christ. Polygon's done.
Plante is out as editor. Massive layoffs across the staff, including Nicole Carpenter, Petrana Radulovic, Michael McWhertor, maybe Charlie Hall...
Fucking hell. I wouldn't have even tried to start writing about games without that site. Goddamnit all.
hey hey my plucky tumblr gang --
i've been laid off! actually, almost all of polygon has! bc vox sold us!
This really sucks and I wish i had something more to say right now but i am still in shock. wanted to let y'all know though since i know there's plenty of polygon fans on here who might not be on twitter/bsky/wheveever the rest of the polygon staff is <3
One of the biggest gaming sites around was just blown up
polygon’s newest video brings some incredibly relatable simone content
[video: simone de rochefort standing in front of a green screen showing the twin peaks episode title screen. she says, “it’s me, the twin peaks enjoyer. i’ve logged on” as sparkly edited images of gordon cole and dale cooper appear onscreen. /end id]
i still don’t know why i did this
[image id: a realistic digital painting of brian david gilbert during his skyrim book unraveled. brian is a white man with short floppy brown hair, hazel eyes, and round wire-rim glasses. he’s wearing a grey suit, looking at the viewer, and smiling slightly. brian is only visible from the shoulders up, and behind him are blurred strips of white paper with black text on them against a black wall. /end id]
I love everything about this image
[image description: a screenshot of polygon’s overboard series, showing simone de rochefort, a woman with pale skin and long dark brown hair wearing a gold watch and a lacy red shirt, sat next to patrick gill, a man with pale skin, chin-length brown hair and stubble, glasses, and a black graphic tee shirt that says giants. pat is grinning mischieviously while simone covers her face with her hand. edited text next to her head reads “louder internal screaming” against the green backdrop. /end id]
strong contender for “worst thing said on polygon’s hit show unraveled”
[ID: three screenshots from the ‘When can Mario retire’ Unraveled. the first is a google search page, the second and third are Brian’s reactions, first disgust and then resigned acceptance. the captions read ‘In order to understand this a bit better, I googled Mario hyperinflation, and I got some exciting search results’. end ID.]
Gill and Gilbert: Episode 1
First piece in the g&g series I’m doing! This one’s just some good ol food crimes and heartburn, but I can’t wait for the rest of em :)
(idk if ill go back to posting on here once I finish this series but I at least plan now on posting daily for the rest of the month. Hope yall like)
[ID: Cute, stylized, full colored fan art of Gill & Gilbert. It’s based off the first episode. The boys are sitting on the couch, with their signature rainbow gradient background behind them. Pat is holding a stack of pepperoni in his hand, and looks defeated as he sinks into the couch. Brian is holding a bowl of strawberries, and holds one up to his open mouth with a wink. His nails are painted green. Both of them are saying, “we’re dying!” /END ID]
patrick pulled the biggest power move
[image description: three screenshots of the coup episode of overboard, showing brian david gilbert, karen han, brennan lee mulligan, simone de rochefort, patrick gill, and jenna stoeber sitting around a black table with cards on it against a green backdrop. the situation looks very tense as pat says, “so you’ll do anything?”. brennan replies, “i’ll do fucking anything.” the next screenshot is a close up on pat’s face, oversaturated to be very red and focused on his eyes, with text overlaid that reads “THEN PERISH” in an imitation of the obama meme. /end id]
reaction image for when your friends are bullying you in a game of coup
[image description: a screenshot of simone de rochefort in the Coup overboard video. simone has pale skin and long brown hair, and is shown from the head-up, smiling widely and closing her eyes as if she is laughing but is in pain about it. white text next to her head against the green background reads “You’ll all pay for these trangressions”. /end id]
What the hell is Cats, by Simone de Rochefort
[image description: six screenshots of a polygon article about Cats (2019).
1. "...videos. We do not yet know the long-term effects on the children who discovered it on VHS, but speaking only for myself, it made me bisexual."
2. "'It was one of the coolest things I've seen,' Taylor Swift, who plays Bombalurina, told Entertainment Weekly. I want to know what else Taylor Swift has seen."
3. "Bombalurina is a sexy cat, who is horny for Rum Tum Tugger and Macavity, but Rum Tum Tugger rejects her, and she resists Macavity out of female solidarity. In this stage..."
4. "Historically, Bombalurina is extremely hot, radiates sexual energy, and also made me gay."
5. "Rum Tum Tugger is the handsome bad boy of Cats. He's an alpha loner who performs a role similar to Munkustrap, but so much hotter. A lot of times he waves his butt and the power of it knocks out any female cats in his vicinity. Still, he respects Old..."
6. "A pair of creepy twin kittens who are psychic. I'm not fucking with you."

i miss gng a normal amount
[image description: sketchy digital fanart of brian david gilbert and patrick gill in purple-pink tones. brian, who has round glasses and short hair, is shown wearing a t-shirt, jeans, and is playing a black melodica using the tube. behind him is pat, who has shoulder-length dark hair and oval-shaped glasses, and is wearing a dark colored graphic t-shirt and jeans, and is holding a microphone. they are both drawn slightly crooked and free-floating, overlapping each other, and both have their eyes closed. hand-drawn bubble letters in black and white behind them read “GILL AND GILBERT” with little triangle adornments. the background is orange, and pat and brian are drawn with a white squiggly line outlining them. /end id]
bdg is literally the opposite of a himbo what the FUCK are you TALKING about
himbos
dumb
beefcake
nonthreatening
bdg
does too much research to be an idiot
stick figure
the chaos energy is So Fucking Threatening
youre all wrong
thank you for coming to my ted talk
There’s a reply on here that said he’s high intelligence low wisdom, and I know that’s a fact bc bdg explains OSHA regulations better than the official department website yet he said in the first gill and gilbert that he hadn’t eaten a fruit in two months
Gill and Gilbert warm up sketch (literally a warm up, I have too much to do to focus on this as much as I desperately want to lmao)
[image description: a digital sketch of Pat Gill carrying Brian David Gilbert over his shoulders, fireman-style. Pat is looking suspiciously off to the side, while Brian is staring wide-eyed at the viewer. end i.d.]
Griffins legacy lives on
[video description: a scene from polygon’s show overboard. simone de rochefort, patrick gill, jeff ramos, tara long, jenna stoeber, and brian david gilbert are all sitting at a table covered in cards and bananas.
transcript:
simone: -but I promise you’ll like them. Thanks everyone for watching, goodnight!
brian: cheers!
simone: cheers!
pat and jeff, in sync, cronch very loudly into their unpeeled bananas. the video cuts to the polygon logo just as simone screams.
/end vd]
oops I did it again
[image description: fanart of patrick gill, brian david gilbert, and simone de rochefort, drawn in pencil. pat, a man with shoulder-length hair is crouching off-screen, one arm spread out and the other doing a finger gun. brian, who has short, shaggy hair and glasses, stands fancily, grinning. simone, who has long hair and is wearing a dress, has one arm extended above her head, also smiles. text above their heads reads “trans rights!”. /end id]
thinkin about simone de rochefort is just like *produces serotonin*
Simone de Rochefort being open about her bisexual and aromantic identity is so fucking valid and good.
