I imagined the Chatsubo in 1984. 41 years later I opened its door. Neuromancer is in production.

Pretty depressing first half. No cup coming back to Vancouver. Just too many brutal mistakes.

I have my issues with the NYT but they aptly described what just happened while cameras were rolling in the Oval Office as “a public confrontation unlike any seen between an American president and foreign leader in modern times.” Now I’m curious what the last time anything like this happened.
