Sometimes think about Baman Piderman and how it gradually developed from an offkilter surrealist joke to an insanely well animated but unsatisfying puzzle box with eyes bigger than its head

Evidently the concluding batch of episodes is finally on its way but I remain a bit dubious

In 2006 a high school English teacher asked students to write to a famous author & ask for advice.

KURT VONNEGUT - born 103yrs ago today - was the only one to respond.

His reply was a doozy.

Really enjoying Golden Time

It veers into the melodramatic and I could see people not jibing with the soap opera -like quality of its premise but I'm very much here for it

Still thinking about Idaten Deities

a Togashi-esque that is more interested in its mechanics and visual style than it is in giving the audience anything to latch on to in emotional, thematic, or moral terms

Its a frustrating watch but I think I kind of respect it

Sometimes I wonder what it would be like living in a timeline where Togashi's editorial staff didn't ruin his fucking health and let him finish Yu Yu Hakusho on his own terms

Kind of want to catch up on Hunter x Hunter but would probably have to restart the arc just to remember all the context and I'm unsure that's worth it just to read 5 more chapters before hitting another multi-year hiatus

Who cares what something is called as long as we all know we're talking about the same thing? Don't tell me you can't remember more than one name for a given thing because I will call bullshit.

Alright, that's Dead Space 2 beaten. Annoying final boss but there are ways to cheese it with the right setup. Really quality action game. The way the enemies speed up in the last third seems to precludes a lot of the slower weapons but the plasma cutter and pulse rifle remain satisfying as hell.

I like the game. I'm still having fun with it. But my enjoyment is mechanical and atmospheric, not narrative. I'd almost prefer something along FEAR 2 lines, where the story sucks but is schlock that jibes with the gameplay instead of being a half-assed attempt at psychological horror.

I really just wish Dead Space 2 had the tiniest scrap of subtlety. I know that's rich considering its blood-and-guts maximalist action horror but its really hard to take the story even a little bit seriously when it is quite literally SCREAMING the themes at you via hallucinatory dead wife.
