Exhaustion and frustration replace his usual determination, each jump and death blending into a blur of punishing obstacles. Every trap and invisible block now haunts him, his mind stuck in an endless loop of brutal challenges.

Holy shit this site is dead. But that isn't going to stop me from posting one of my favorite Youtubers. He's one of the few currently active "modern" content creators that keeps old Internet humor alive. You can smell the breath of Something Awful distinctly and love it.
Rising like a phantom from the skyline of Pyongyang, it’s a towering relic of retrofuturism, where ambition and reality collide. Constructed to be a symbol of power, it instead became a monument to an unfinished future. 105 floors of unrealized potential, forever suspended in time, a glitched masterpiece on the edge of a utopia that never came.
Step inside, where smooth elevator music echoes through empty halls, and pastel sunsets wash over distant horizons. This is the Ryugyong Hotel—where the past meets the future...

Mastodon started as a cozy little refuge from Twitter’s endless political yelling—a place where people could share art, cat pics, and maybe actually have a chill conversation for once. It was like, “Finally, somewhere I won’t be bombarded with hot takes every five seconds!”

We learn how it's possible for transients to change their species into an alien. I just read it and even I couldn't explain it to you. Everyone hates the transients. They're holed up in a ghetto, moving around convinced they've seized control but they're just waiting to be slaughtered. Kinda remind me of anarchists from the Spanish Civil War.

This comic is sweet. You should go back to reading it.
