I got a Steam library that's so backed up because the Q1 launch schedule is a large type asshole. I got a bunch of online friends. We're passing each other on the downslope of a weekly BF6 group, my third. 'Cos I spend all my time interviewing developers like you about their games. That's my life.

Been trying to quit smoking for about a decade. It is now an entire year since I had even one pull on a cigarette.

The Terror (2018)
a ship needs to be a little codependant and toxic to be fun. It's fiction, after all. ships need to be a bit fucked up

I've never watched any of the MCU films but I've started today with Iron Man. I will write Letterboxd reviews of all of them.

A ★★★½ review of Iron Man (2008)
First MCU film I've watched apart from Black Panther. I like the image of him cutting holes in all his shirts for his little iron man heart thing to poke through. A relic of GWOT propaganda. Impossibl...

For what it's worth, I'm very pleased with this one.
Likely my last article of the year, on both Black Ops 7 and Battlefield 6, and how online multiplayer feels like the most apt metaphor now for real war.

If you read it and like it, please share it. bulletpointsmonthly.com/2025/12/24/k...

Deus Ex: Invisible War (2003).

Resolving my ambivalence this playthrough — there are so many compelling notions and a rich ambiance also present in say DeLillo's Cosmopolis (2003) with their mutual anxieties of globalization, terrorism and ideology... but it's so self-sabotaged. In myriad ways.
