"I don't get to draw the line" — you are a wildly influential journalist with an audience of millions, you absolutely do get to draw the line!

Hello new followers, here is a sadly still relevant presentation I gave about What Is To Be Done www.youtube.com/watch?v=J6GH...

Every day I see something that inches me closer to a Butlerian Jihad. Today it’s the QR code to receive a playlist inside my carton of eggs.

Alec and Sarah came out from LA to drop off a birthday gift that is one of those records so rare you assume people are making it up. That they found a toxic waste pressing of it makes it not only the perfect overwhelming gift but also horrifically threatening. Is this love? Yes, as I understand it.

the great thing about Holes is it's the rare kids movie of its kind where everyone involved seems to realize it's something special. everyone's delivering, because they know. from Andrew Davis, who personally shepherded the project, on down to John Voigt. attested to in this great oral history.

Loosening up before a weekend of commission work with a little mixed media Robert Redford’s peacoat appreciation

hoping to build upon this success for the KC concerts next weekend by finding a way to go as “Your Mom’s House In Long Beach”

“Comics will mend your heart, if you let them. When I was a scared, lonely, closeted kid, <Marvel’s> heroes were there for me” Utterly gutted @meakoopa.bsky.social’s inclusive, joyous, and above all fabulously queer #AvengersAcademy has come to an abrupt end You totally paid it forward 🏳️‍🌈🥰🥳

Pre-pandemic, I ran several interviews with other writers from throughout games and other media -- I’m porting them to the new blog across the next few days. Third up -- on writing horror games, featuring @docseuss.bsky.social and friends >> gregbuchanan.substack.com/p/interviews...

Put together some thoughts here. In an earlier time he would have been the kind of writer being paid $5 a word by magazines to go write about whatever he pleased. And no one would be pissed off or jealous about it either. www.welcometohellworld.com/life-is-a-pr...

Really sorry to hear about the sudden passing of Kaleb Horton, a fantastic writer. Only seems fitting to share what he wrote for David Lynch kalebhorton.ghost.io/death-is-jus...

This final post from Kaleb Horton is very beautiful and hits hard. This is just so sad. RIP.

One Battle After Another has so many good bar trivia team names in it.

what if we kissed on the pretty freight machine

limited draw distance = one of the great metaphors for life

One Battle After Another… no not the movie, the other thing. Three years is not a thing I thought was in the cards, on account of me setting fire to my entire deck. Thanks to everyone who helped me play 52 card pickup.

here goes

Pals!

I think the biggest drawback of rideshare apps compared to older forms of taxi service is the lack of a "follow that car" option

never not thinking about Watchmen universe's 7-term President Robert Redford and his Redfordations program www.esquire.com/entertainmen...

Pearl Jam live in Vancouver 2024, opening nights of the Dark Matter tour, the first collision of my stage art, the band’s performance, and a thunderous crowd. New concert photography prints from me: robsheridan.storenvy.com/collections/... Signed/numbered, proceeds benefit Vitalogy Foundation.

Here’s I wrote about gamergate 11 years ago. Almost nobody major in the media got what this was or why it mattered. “Eh, it’s just nerdy Online Drama.” The difference now? The cluelessness remains, fewer publications & reporters—& gamergate took over the country. www.huffpost.com/entry/anita-...

SECRET MALL APARTMENT comes to VOD on Tuesday. The whole staff is a huge fan of this documentary, which is more than just a cool story about art vs. capitalism, but is uplifting, beautiful, and chaotic. Abby reviewed it for us on the fest circuit: www.thepitchkc.com/sxsw-2024-se...

WETRUNNER just dropped and uh the game designer built a character around Loss :/ :/

In a total disaster for democracy, the Missouri House pushes through the Trump administration's gerrymandered map that splits KC, while also making it virtually impossible to change the state constitution through the initiative petition process. www.thepitchkc.com/missouri-hou...

Show faces. They wouldn’t do this kind of privacy in framing for any protest, and this is a public career fair for people stoked to want to have this job full time. Show face. This is cartoonish.

None post-1993 in the top 10 is correct.

Cronos pretty quickly gets to the issue of how there’s a bunch of stray cats having a great time on an otherwise dead planet [shut up cats are great shut up we don’t need to answer every question]

this is my room(s) at rebs new spot

“I’m Selling The Smiths For My Health” is, unfortunately, a perfect Smiths song title and if they reunited to record it, I bet our boy M-dawg could get 10% over sticker price. @bencollins.bsky.social and Onion Tetrahedron have the opportunity to do the second funniest thing ever.

new site from ex-polygon folks just launched. hell yeah

bloober's new game Cronos launches tomorrow and the first listed achievement in their horror game has me expecting only A+ work

glow in the dark Raveonettes cover album, perfect cut after perfect cut

Thanks to @brockwilbur.bsky.social at @thepitch.bsky.social for previewing my appearance this Tuesday 9/2 at the Plaza Branch of @kclibrary.bsky.social! I'll be chatting with Misti Mundae of 90.9 The Bridge about my book SUCH GREAT HEIGHTS: The Complete Cultural History of the Indie Rock Explosion.

As many local and web publications as I could get my hands on and turn into left-wing media.

All my em dashes are 100% human.

frostpunk really setting my expectations at a realistic level for what “the good ending” will look like at the end of all this :/ :/

Happy @idlesband.bsky.social Caught Stealing soundtrack release day to all who celebrate (me and @brockwilbur.bsky.social)
