Two years ago I made one of my final threads on the Twitter. I'd like to reproduce it here, because this is the better place. On Oct. 25, 2022, I lost the best cat. His name was Raimi (after the director). He was 11. Cancer and a host of other issues that all came on at the same time.

John Oliver of @lastweektonight.com said he was 48. I Google it and Gemini said he was born on April 23, 1975. Math? He was born on April 23, 1977.

Honestly we'd be a much better world if all art from over fifty years ago were just available for free instead of locked behind pay-to-watch streamers, overpriced home video releases, or just non-existent beyond piracy. Public domain takes too long and copyright owners usually suck.
After leaving HBO Max earlier this year, ‘Looney Tunes’ is a hit on Tubi, the company says, and popular across generations. It should be a model for every classic cartoons trapped in streaming limbo.

I had a lucky run on 007 tonight. One of those games where everything simply came together with extra balls and multi-balls. My previous high score on this game was 124 million.

I've confirmed with Barrels of Fun that there will be a Winchester Mystery House pinball machine in the lobby of the actual house in San Jose.
The new Winchester Mystery House pinball from Barrels of Fun is an absolute delight. If the line wasn't so long I would have spent most of the day going back to that one.

Ultimorphic, who make the Portal and Princess Bride game, have a Dracula game that riffs on Edward Gorey art. 🧛♂️ I'd love to see this in action.
