I'm told one should never say bad things about the dead, only good. As such, on the occasion of Dick Cheney's passing, I will say only that: Good.

Been seeing an interesting thing on social media with both fighting games and adventure games, where people who haven’t played them since the 90s will say “I wish they still made X genre” or “there aren’t any indie games in X genre”, when they’re more active than they’ve ever been

Parents, please check your kids’ candy this Halloween. I’ve just found an ancient metal whistle with the inscription “QUIS EST ISTE QUI VENIT" inside a Snickers bar. I blew it and heard a note of infinite distance, and now I’m haunted by a figure in pale, fluttering draperies. Be safe.
