  • The list would go on and on. So to keep it concise:

    Action & Platformers
    Castlevania: Bloodlines
    Contra Hard Corps
    Kid Chameleon
    Shinobi III: Return of the Ninja
    Sunset Riders
    Vectorman 1 & 2

    Beat 'Em Ups
    Alien Storm
    Golden Axe Trilogy
    Streets of Rage Trilogy

    Phantasy Star series
    Shadowrun

    Sports & Racing
    NBA Jam
    OutRun
    Road Rash

    I could keep naming games, but that should be enough to give you a taste of what made the Genesis unique, as well as some spins on franchises that dominated the NES.

    Oh, check out Toejam and Earl as well.




  • Because we apply human traits to God, and because being emotionless doesn’t necessarily indicate being higher than someone else.

    In most traditions, God is incomprehensible to humans. Polytheistic religions break God down into multiple Gods or Goddesses with different characteristics, which is how they explain all of the events assigned to God. Lightning happens because of Zeus, etc.

    For religions that don’t break God down into different aspects, it’s one of those things that kinda justifies itself. Bad things are happening so God is mad, if God is mad he has to have a good reason because he’s omnipotent. That’s where the faith part comes in.

    Abrahamic religions especially have a father/child or teacher/student dynamic between God and humans. A major negative of the Fall of Man was that we had separated ourselves from God and could no longer could wander the Garden of Eden.

    The implication is that God knows more than us, and to have faith that he acts for the good of humanity even if we don’t understand in our limited knowledge.

    We like to think God cares about us.


  • “I think that maybe it was staged,” Tim Dillon said on his show last weekend about the assassination attempt. Dillon, who was previously a staunch Trump supporter, went on to share that Trump should now come out and say, “Some people are going to be upset by this, but we staged the assassination attempt in Butler to show people how important it was to vote for me and how far I was willing to go for them.”

    Duuuude. Fucking delusional. He staged the attempt to win the election. Full stop.

    You don’t “show people” a lie. You don’t fake a scene for power for other people.

    “If you cannot look at this story and use critical thinking skills and have at least some questions, you are the problem and we need you to snap out of it,” Trisha Hope, a GOP national delegate from Texas and former Trump supporter, posted on X about Butler this week.

    This one is really key, because this is what everyone that was paying attention was saying when it happened over a year ago.

    “The radical invents the views. When he has worn them out, the conservative adopts them.” - Mark Twain

    Except at this point, you just need to have a nondelusional point of view.
