Trying to max out my Multitasking stat:
- turn the TV on to a show in the background
- sit down to eat breakfast
- at computer scrolling through multiple sites on multiple browsers & tabs
- tapping my phone on some random game
oh, here comes a cat to get a piece of the action, gotta pet him too.

Anthrax's self-cover with "I'm The Man '91" (on Attack of the Killer B's) is oddly more stuck in its 1991 era than its original.
Listen to the original and you could say it could be from a variety of decades. Fairly timeless...
Listen to the '91 remake and you'd say "That's early 90's"

I wonder if TV show tropes were just "institutional knowledge" because writers went from show to show, and because shows needed 20+ episodes a season they'd just recycle a plot from the last show they were on to make deadline.

I think I've finally realized that Michael McKean's name is not Christopher Guest.
I blame Spinal Tap initially, but even looking this up, half of the pics I see for Christopher have Michael in them as well.

It would have been a fun game to watch if it wasn't ... 34 degrees and windy!
I didn't know my section number would be so significant.

This was the craziest game I played in Next Fest.
The systems it combines work together so well. It pulls from SuperHot, Vampire Survivors, Snake, and of course Pac-Man.
Bonus: due to the cats/mice/maze, it feels like the spiritual successor to Radar Rat Race, an old game we played on the VIC-20

Went to see Captain America: Brave New World with the kids yesterday.
Then immediately watched The Incredible Hulk (2008) and it really is a direct sequel. Minus Bruce Banner and the Hulk.

Whenever you hear someone sneer about scientific research that seems useless to them — “they’re studying the spit of lizards?!” — remind them that’s exactly how we got Ozempic.

I tried a new yellow primer on this. It was terrible as it left a glossy surface that didn't lend itself to be painted easily. In the end it worked out, though.

Indiana Jones and the Great Circle doesn't feel like Uncharted or Tomb Raider, as much as it does feel like a modern Thief game.

Similar to how phrases of four 2 syllable words gets turned into TMNT meter,
I've found that I turn any 2 syllable then 3 syllable word combo into the "Bitchin' Camaro" meter:
"Mango Banana milkshake"
Oh? ... Mango Banana, Mango Banana! I wanna have a taste too

Upgraded my CPU and doubled my RAM.
Yay, I can play Alan Wake 2 without it bogging down!
I don't care how bad performance is, I am NOT going to turn off ray tracing in a Remedy game.

Just because I start reading 1 book for a while, and then start another book for a while, and then another... does not mean I'm reading 3 books at once.
It just means I have (literary) commitment issues.
The last book I finished was ... Ready Player One (?!?)
Ooof
I need to rectify that.
