Damn Rock Paper Shotgun been through it the last couple years but this article has the JUICE www.rockpapershotgun.com/the-sanitisa...
The sanitisation of Skate reminds me how far counterculture has fallen and how hard it can be to stay inspired
The world of Skate was already heading in a sterile, sanitized, corporate direction - guided by the trends in real-life skateboarding.

Flashing back to 06-07 digging for records in the dollar bins, we weren’t getting Funkadelic, James Brown, Nina Simone, it was Chunk Mangione, Joan Baez, and some gospel organist you never heard of. RIP Chuck.

Is there a name for the phenomenon where you’re so worried about oversleeping and missing a flight that you can’t fall asleep and thus oversleep?

Roll7’s games OlliOlli World and Rollerdrome have been delisted from Steam and Xbox | VGC
It’s not clear if the delistings are temporary, or a result of Take-Two’s sale of Private Division…

Is in the Mood for Love a perfect movie? The slow motion shots didn’t really work for me, but other than that it’s maybe one of the most beautiful and evocative things I’ve seen in a long time.

Tough to see the lions go out like that. I just hope regardless of the coaching changes likely to come come, they continue to platt the wild, gutsy style of football that have made them such a joy to watch and root for.

“Lynchian” is often used as shorthand for weird, or maybe weirded, but what I’ll always love about Lynch is how he fearlessly he could capture the mundane. youtu.be/ttk0gc00fiQ?...

This summer while I was at JuJitsuCon, I left my Debit card at a food stand and someone snagged it, went to 2 different fast-food places and two gas stations, spending close to $300. It sucked but I canceled the card, opened a dispute with BECU, they credited back the money, and I moved on...

As much as I’m loving most my time in the Zone, I think I’m going to have to wait out a patch for Stalker 2. The bugs don’t bother me, but the mutants manage to be both boring to fight against and economy busting in how many rounds and health packs they eat.
