No idea why Netflix thinks I'm a 98% 'match' for Ricky Gervais. Can't stand the tw*t.

Last update: I'm off X/Twitter, and am starting a newsletter at buttondown.email/kungfumonkey if you like my taste in recommendations, reviews and general oddities. First edition drops next week.
Kung Fu Monkey
A newsletter about screenwriting, crime, infrastructure and systems, some gaming, less politics, and reviews of stuff you should've heard about but probably haven't. Basically, it's like having lunch ...

I've always disliked the "I Am No Man" moment in Peter Jackson's Return of the King because it fails to capture the fact that when the Witch King threatens Eowyn with horrific unimaginable torment, she responds by making him soil his ghostly britches.

GameStop ending support for crypto and NFT wallet in November
The wallet is being scrapped due to the "regulatory uncertainty of the crypto space."
