So the streamer Ludwig recently found out that one of his earliest regular viewers, who was trans, passed away and tonight he's doing a charity stream for the Trevor Project. So far he's raised over $46,000 in about 5 hours. www.twitch.tv/ludwig

In celebration of Godzilla Day, I finally got around to uploading the little room tour video I filmed when I spent a night in the Godzilla vs. King Ghidorah Room at the Hotel Gracery Shinjuku this past summer. Enjoy!

The best part about the upcoming re-release of Prize Fighter (a not-terribly-good full-motion video boxing game) is that it brings Dick Miller to modern video game consoles.

I should really replay this sometime. What a great game.
Marvel's Guardians of the Galaxy was released 4 years ago today, and you shouldn't miss this game.
It doesn't take place in the Marvel Cinematic Universe, and it's one of my favorite space adventures in video games in recent years.

Wanna see what it’s like when me and Bill hang out? It’s real nerdy!
So, last night @whimsicalphil.bsky.social and I got together to talk over some old 80s Halloween commercials, which turned into us talking for over 2 hours about all sorts of stuff, like meeting John Astin and Tom Savini. Check it out! youtu.be/OZwpG7QQqUc?...
