We just watched the Tap sequel yesterday and had a good bunch of laughs. Reiner seemed to really have fun with it. What a tragedy that he and his wife were taken in such a horrible fashion.

We've decided we're going to play this one.

Everyday we prove a bit more that the United States doesn't deserve to host the World Cup. Of course this happens this year.

I agree that games struggle on average, or even at their best, to measure up to film or literature; but once in a while a standout shows it's possible. BioShock, Gone Home, What Remains of Edith Finch, & Red Dead all get there.

The audience just doesn't usually properly appreciate the effort.
The interesting, sophisticated thing about games is not whether they can tell stories as well as books or movies (they can’t) or float shocking themes as well as fine art (honestly, who cares).

It’s the manipulation of systems, the play of contingency, the brokenness of machines.

Gonna do 2026 without Amazon Prime. Mine just lapsed for the first time since it launched. I don't need it, and more importantly, I don't want it anymore.

Peacock just emailed me their new terms of use like I'm ever going to actually use Peacock.

Ok, fine, I'll start wearing a jacket. I guess fall is really done with the mild days.

Maybe putting unqualified idiots in charge of things is bad for government..

Call of Duty making a zillion dollars all the time -- and being supported by a literal trillion-dollar company -- and still using AI for art assets is so incredibly pathetic and infuriating.

The fact that Megyn Kelly minimized raping 15 year olds and wasn't immediately canceled from every platform, including @siriusxmprog.bsky.social and YouTube, tells you EVERYTHING that is wrong with right wing media and this country in general.

To men in cowboy hats: you look stupid and cartoonish. Getting out of your spotless, lifted, cookedly-backed-in, and overly chromed out Dodge Ram at Walmart while donning your goofy cowboy hat isn't the tough vibe you think it is.

This looks so good. The Spooky Pinball team is on a roll and I'm really excited to get a chance to play this one.
It's Showtime!

It's sad that I'm shocked that the right thing was done. It's even more sad that Utah Republicans fought so hard to go against the will of Utah voters.

Utah judge rejects GOP redistricting effort, approving new map with a Democratic seat
The ruling is a blow to Republicans, who had drawn a court-ordered map designed to protect Utah's all-GOP congressional delegation.

Keep wondering when advertisers will realize they don't have to put Kevin Hart in every ad.

The Radiohead setlist from last night looked incredible. We need a North American tour to follow this one up.
