Pro-tip for Disney/Hulu bundle users trying to watch the Oscars: For some reason Oscars don’t show up in Disney+. You need to login to Disneyplus.com, make sure to ACTIVATE Hulu at the bottom of your membership page, then login to the Hulu standalone app. They really screwed this up

Minishoot' Adventures just had it's console release (and it's on Game Pass!), so if you happened to miss it back in 2024, now is your chance! A phenomenal game! #videogames #gamepass #indiegames

Hello, my bathroom ceiling collapsed. Unrelated, would you like to buy some art? They’re calling it “the best time” to do it ✨ www.sonnyross.com/shop #illustration #nature #fantasy

I wrote about HBO's "Industry"—a show that has developed into true prestige television despite the fact that nobody seems to be watching it. #Television #HBO

Öoo is now available on Nintendo Switch! 🎉 If you have friends who don’t own a PC, I’d really appreciate it if you could recommend the Switch version to them! 🐛💣 www.nintendo.com/en-gb/Games/...

#StarWarsOutlaws isn't perfect and that's kind of why I love it. Some thoughts on the platonic idea of a "7 out of 10" game. #videogames #gaming

Has there ever been a bleaker job posting?

@vincemancini.bsky.social @mattlieb.bsky.social Boys, gonna need a two hour frotcast where you dissect every weirdo in this article. This is what Patreon was made for. harpers.org/archive/2026...

I bet the person who wrote the packaging on the Oatly carton is insufferable at parties.

If you're wondering why I write a newsletter that nobody reads...

Homemade corn tortillas fail

Still giggling at the thought of a ski jumper trying to drain a 3 mid-air

Did low effort content pave the way for AI? While it's easy to blame big tech, the recent onslaught of slop caters to an audience that has proven time and time again that they prefer quantity to quality. I talked about what it looks like to reclaim your taste and, by extension, your self respect.

I watched Mary Bronstein's "If I Had Legs I'd Kick You" and wrote about what makes a "feel bad" movie successful. Shout out to @vincemancini.bsky.social for introducing me to his self-created "levity test." #Filmsky

Considering that most people's entire jobs essentially boil down to "send e-mails," most of y'all are pretty bad at it.

It seems weird to say out loud, but I think Sir Ben Kingsley is giving the performance of his career in a made for streaming Marvel TV series.

For the controller-challenged in your life, I compiled a list of non-traditional video games to recommend, starting—of course—with the phenomenal @roottrees.com game. #videogames #puzzlegames thereisnttimeforthat.substack.com/p/video-game...

Going to the doctor in America is fun because prior to the appointment, you will be bombarded by text message reminders/portal signups/online forms. And, then, when you get there, they be like "who dis?"

The Steam Machine has been delayed because stupid little babies can't stop using AI to write their emails: aftermath.site/steam-machine-...

I don't have the words to adequately express how I'm feeling right now, but I tried. #RIP_Alex thereisnttimeforthat.substack.com/p/american-d...

Justice for #Eddington! www.nytimes.com/2026/01/22/m...

I wrote about not liking #ThePitt and the resurgence of "episodic" TV. I am wrong. I apologize.

Genuinely funny to me how this admin has gone so hard against “cancel culture” that they are constantly forced to defend and keep awful imbeciles in positions of power.

What if recession, but, you know, Instagram friendly?

I’m at the “impulse bought an air fryer” stage of depression.

X is down? You mean the stolen art and pedo app?

Don't let this game slip through the cracks! I wrote about @11bitstudios.bsky.social's Death Howl, a game that brilliantly combines elements of my favorite games into a fresh package. #deckbuilder #soulslike #pixelart thereisnttimeforthat.substack.com/p/indie-game...

Mark Kelly texts me more than my mom.

Large Bluesky following? They're probably cool. Large LinkedIn following? They're a monster.

Sent off the follow-up e-mails. Made a cup of tea. Currently unwinding by trying to put together a cursed candy company's family tree.

It's "good morning, happy new year, circling back" e-mail day to all who celebrate

First work day of the year. Take a deep breath. Make a roux. thereisnttimeforthat.substack.com/p/there-isnt...

Our long national nightmare is finally over.* *I shaved my mustache

The algorithm really doesn't understand Dredge at all.

Read some real bangers this year. Lonesome Dove was a bit of a project but it’s an American masterpiece.

The world feels really bad right now so I decided to roast a chicken. Happy New Year, folks. Be kind to those around you!

Thanks to @jeffcannata.bsky.social for recommending "Death Howl" on @dlchypetrain.bsky.social. A game that feels like it was built for me.

Scott’s newsletter has been a highlight of my week for five years running. Subscribe so he can keep making Skyline stunt food.

Client just pulled the plug on a project that was potentially going to be a rush job over the holidays, and honestly, it was the perfect Hannukah gift.

As someone with a Substack that nobody reads, I am obligated by the terms and conditions to make a #TopTen list. Feel free to jump into the comments to yell at me for how wrong I am. thereisnttimeforthat.substack.com/p/the-2025-w...

I finally saw "Caught Stealing" and it made me wish more A-list directors would make B-movies.

Getting the flu the week I don't have a ton of work to do is a real Monkey's Paw situation.

UGH. I wrote something sincere about writing. www.bobbymillertime.com/p/the-raptur...

New newsletter: #Hogwartslegacy is now on Game Pass so I tried to play it. It made me feel weird. #videogames

The cool thing about the new Vimeo interface is that it now takes 15 clicks to make a simple review link for a video. Good stuff! Love when a product consistently gets worse over time.

Eddington is a Thanksgiving movie. No, I'm not a crackpot. thereisnttimeforthat.substack.com/p/eddington-...

Me 5 minutes into any movie that we start after 9:00 pm.

Smugly proud that I have no idea what the Chat GPT interface even looks like.

New Newsletter! I bought a new TV and made me insane: an unhinged rant about motion smoothing and AI buzzwords. #Hisense
