- “Good” news! You can now buy Hatoful Boyfriend, the world’s only pigeon dating sim, legally in English for $1.50. If you haven’t heard, it’s a hilariously homicidal game in which you play as a human girl attending a posh school for birds.
- It’s almost Halloween and nobody can spell “spooky” correctly. It’s not that Tumblr has turned into a horde of zombies. It’s a meme, of course.
- This Guardian article about how young people in Japan have apparently stopped having sex has been brought to my attention three times now. Is it too sensational to be real news? That’s what Brian Ashcraft thinks.
- “I don’t see gender, only enemies who have not yet begun to lament the day they choose to face me.” Magic: The Gathering players on gender diversity.
- Gathering Magic is my favorite M:TG news site because only they would publish a list of lazy costumes based on magic cards.
- Wanted to let you guys know that I now work full time for ReadWrite, which means you can read even more of my reporting on social media, robots, Bitcoins, and the future in general here. It’s been a crazy ride this year going from unemployed to freelance to full time, and I’ll be sure to write about it in more detail soon.
