How many copies of The Burbs is too many?

Everyone's having a good time today.

This five-part series is a very good look at a completely false conspiracy that inspired Gabriel Knight 3 (and later the Da Vinci Code).

Helicopter that looks like a gunship from Half-Life 2 just flew over my house towards Vandenberg. That means a peace deal, right?

Red Cloud’s ultimate nightmare

We're excited to share that Tex Murphy: Killing Moon Rising is now live on Kickstarter! This fan-made remaster of Under a Killing Moon, headed by Yuval Dorfman, has the support of Chris Jones, Aaron Conners, and more. The moon is rising once again. Support now! www.kickstarter.com/projects/tex...

People upset about the Obama library here’s me two years ago at the freaking Drumpf library. 🤣🤣🤣 #HesACheeto

Sorry for bummerposting, but Audrey getting recruited for One-Eyed Jack’s is uncomfortably similar to Virginia Giuffre working at Mar-a-Lago as a teenager and getting coerced by Ghislaine Maxwell to work for Epstein.

Every time they show a person under 50 in the crowd who looks like they want to die it just makes the song better.

He’s Mandal now.

This morning‘s coffee shop song, which was followed by Lionel Richie — All Night Long. The transition worked!

💕💕💕

😭😭😭 I would never treat you this way, Sam Stanley.

Peanuts fans will see a “honk if you love Snoopy or are insane” bumper sticker and think it means “if I love Snoopy, I should honk.”

Losing my mind at this tired-ass Pac Man plush on Facebook Marketplace.

Today’s coffee shop song. Always good to hear a sax solo!

Rated “Rude” by an all-white BlueSky.

Learning that I’ve watched Babu Frik in six movies without knowing it. I love you, Babu Frik.

I play a game with myself to see if I can tell if one of these Twin Peaks shots is from Fire Walk With Me or The Missing Pieces. I guess wrong way too often!

Updated my Meaningless Star Wars Ranking Letterboxd list solely to remind myself that I have not watched the current movie and it should stay that way. letterboxd.com/mikemariano/...

People are really typing whatever nonsense they want into that Star Trek Title Card Generator.

If Laura Dern looked at my posts like this I would die.

Haha I missed this. You know what, just put Mr. Met in Star Wars as-is; why not?

The Mandalorian and Grogu, directed by Jon Favreau: No Veers.

After almost ten years in California I finally had an Angelyne sighting last night! In her pink Corvette (?) on 101 around Tarzana.

I forgot Twin Peaks has its own “Go ahead. Post another ‘take.’” guy.

Wow, a new Don Hertzfeldt film premieres tonight? Amazing!

Worked all afternoon yesterday, got home and made a pizza from scratch, ate the whole thing, and passed out at 9pm.

Making my own Backrooms experience by breaking into the ArcLight Cinemas. :(

I am delighted by this Mario Bros. illustration.

i bet getting assimilated by the borg feels good as hell tho

Good news: America's over

No! The past has to be dumb to make me feel smart! Audiences in 1997 ran in terror because they thought the bugs moving towards them would come through the screen!

No edits. Dirty delete or live with your failure.

“Wow, I think it’s so cool that you drive around and listen to ska and smooth jazz from my generation and that you post photos where we see your toes…” — me before getting blocked on Princess Daisy’s ig.

Got to this moment in Chrono Trigger last night and started shaking and tearing up—and fumbled entering the code. I’m too emotional for video games!

Very good episode and the reveal about who Petty wanted for his Faces of Death villain is wild! (but actually would have made total sense)

Today’s coffee shop song. Love it! I always think Scritti Politti is the Short Circuit song guy but he’s not.

Great Greed (1992) by Namco was an RPG released for the Nintendo Game Boy with some of the greatest NPC names ever put in a cartridge. Helping to check acid rain levels, you are suddenly whisked away by magic to another world where you must battle the evil Bio-Hazard Harry! (a shortcake thread)

This is like a Simpsons b-plot. Principal Skinner tells Chalmers they’re putting “enhancement tarps” on the track while Milhouse calls out from the ditch in vain.

"Jose Chung's 'From Outer Space'" (1996.04.12) S03|E20|3X20 Director: Rob Bowman Writer: Darin Morgan Director of Photography: John S. Bartley Art Director: Graeme Murray #XFiles #TheXFiles

This morning at the coffee shop: one old man trying to convince his old man friends to watch Bubba Ho-Tep. Here’s hoping!

I love you, Sheriff Truman.

I really enjoyed Arch Hall, Jr. in The Sadist, in which his performance actually isn’t all that different from his one below.

it's bleak that like 61% of kids say they want to be influencers when they grow up not because that's a bad thing to want to be. it's bleak because that means kids increasingly realize the truth that there are no other paths for social mobility or even like home ownership available to them.

Coffee shop playing this song this morning—always makes me tear up. If you can think of a better song about Major Tom counting down and launching alone into space I’d like to hear it!

wholesome gulag :)
