I think this movie will be bad (I just don't see how you get a good screenplay out of Zelda, and I'm a huge fan) but in an age of slop: filming on location? solid costume design? Age appropriate casting? That's neat.
This is Miyamoto. Filming is underway for the live-action film of The Legend of Zelda in a lush, natural setting, with Bo Bragason-san who will play Zelda and Benjamin Evan Ainsworth-san who will play Link (1/2).

Finished the 70's Anne of Green Gables anime, I know this line is from an old poem but given the circumstances I have to conclude that, fucking somehow, this is where Evangelion got NERV's slogan from.

"Blowing Bubba" would be a great name for a pop punk band but now it's ruined

Was on a work zoom for a good minute before realizing I have a big poster in the background that says BUTTHOLE SURFERS WITH SMEGMA... hopefully nobody noticed

I think the issue with the protein craze is that we're just shoving powder into random shit when what we should be doing is making more hot meaty snacks. Hot dogs are a good start but we need tieban tofu, random ass kebabs, and of course I am a famichiki evangelist.

Didn't know this: before working with Jon Chang in Gridlink, Takafumi Matsubara recorded a Discordance Axis cover in his earlier band www.youtube.com/watch?v=zxmw...

This is 10% pain, 20% pain, 15% concentrated power of pain. 5% pain and 50% pain and 100% reason to remember the pain.

Writing some grind. Proud of the riffs but scared that I'm subconsciously stealing them from Carcass/Terrorizer/Discordance Axis

You do NOT listen to a little bit of everything! Your understanding of music is just shallow enough that you don't realize how little you know! What the fuck is your favorite tropicalia band!?

I asked this before over at The Old Place and the answers delighted me. So again:

Who is an artist you admire who you suspect would not like you if they met you personally?

I think Peter Dinklage is fantastic. I would absolutely get on his last nerve. He'd be looking for the door while we spoke.

I don't think Japanese style convenience stores would take off in America but we need a famichiki. It would fix at least three of our countries problems.

I get why it's called "cyberpunk": the aesthetic and literature are built on punk sensibilities and an anti-authority, DIY ethos. "Steampunk" though? Are those clocks ticking in D-beats?

I do think the American left also has an anti-empathy problem even if we like to claim that we're immune to it and without tackling that the best we'll ever be able to materialize is "just get rid of all the bad people and then there will only be good people."

Bought condoms from CVS and of course they were behind glass so I had to press a button that made a store wide announcement of "THERE'S A GUY HERE WHO'S FUCKING HORNY!" and an employee came over who was like "alright which one of these are you gonna shoot your goo into?" Kill me.

Denji does feel like Gen Z's Shinji Ikari and somebody who's more culturally versed than me should write something about that.
