According to the wiki, Larry was 38 in the first game (1987) so he's about 70 now. The reboot was 2018, so an appropriately timeshifted Larry would've been born in 79 or 80 and would wear Ed Hardy/Bape/etc or something like this. Maybe a haphazard mix

@33mhz ("Old Scratch Disk") replied to a tweet by @33mhz:

His outfit was always out of date, but his character concept is "40 year old whose ideas of how to dress cool were developed in his 20s and never updated." Having him dress like a knock-off Travolta in 2018 is kinda like having present-day Superman still ducking into phone booths

I saw a couple of Leisure Suit Larry reboot games and it struck me again what an anachronism his design is for a setting where Instagram exists

Starting this year, thanks to Democrats’ Inflation Reduction Act, big drug companies will pay major penalties to Medicare if they jack up prices faster than inflation. This is what it looks like when government works for people who need to fill prescriptions, not for Big Pharma.

Edwin Chiloba was an amazing human. He was bold, passionate, his energy was immaculate. He embodied fashion. Someone murdered him cruelly, put his body in a box & dumped his body.

Edwin we speak your name. May yr blood not spill for nothing. Stop killing queer people.

I’ve been seeing a lot of people quoting stats that show more athletes died in the last year than have died in the last 38 years. Is this true? No, let’s chat about it. A 🧵👇🏻

Hmmm. I just had a bizarre experience, involving a global news organisation and a trillion dollar corporation. (I got caught in the middle, so... owch.)
It’s not the sort of experience the people involved usually talk about in public… so I think I’ll talk about it in public.

Look. I've said it before and I'll say it again. If Harry has a problem with his family then he needs to persuade the French to fund him, raise an army, invade and seize the crown.

What else was Brexit for, if not to restore traditional British approaches and values?
