Appropriated Pastiche

you're just jealous bc the spotlight is shining on my cell in the panopticon

absolutely fascinated by this raw pixels on an emulator vs how the game was actually supposed to look on old tvs twitter

[ask-maxie-boy]

People say that old games dont look as good as they remember

Its because they legitimately dont.

[crtter]

The “fuzz” from CRT monitors was something that was definitely accounted for and taken advantage of back in the day when it came to video games! While this effect is noticeable in 3D games, it’s MUCH more visible when it comes to 2D sprites:

Just look how much more depth these simple sprites of Princess Peach and Bowser from Super Mario RPG seem to have when seen through the “dots” of a CRT TV screen!

The same principle applies to the music, too. Composers took the sound compression caused by old software into account and wrote the music to take advantage of it. That's why so many restorations of old video game songs lack the oomph of the originals.

Abortion Clinic Employee Shares How Some Pro-Life Women Act When They Come In As Customers

I am not surprised that anti-choice zealots would hypocritically obtain abortions, but I am thoroughly fucking shocked that they wouldn’t even attempt to hide their anti-choice views when doing so.

Read “When the anti-choice choose,” a collection of anecdotes from abortion providers about serving this kind of patient.

[cricketcat9]

EXACTLY this kind of behaviour also reported from Poland, from super-Catholic wives and daughters of politicians trying to ban ALL abortions, no exception. 😡 Hypocrisy is universal.

Truly a masterclass in harrowingly strained enthusiasm!

I really wish the overused sentence “You either die a hero, or live long enough to see yourself become the villain.” was less relevant but here we are
