Huge snow here but ain’t nothing stopping me from making it out to an advanced showing of No Other Choice tonight… I am practically vibrating with excitement.

My humble contribution to the One Battle After Another heap of memes.

Wow so Apple is just wholesale ripping off Raycast. Ngl that’s a bummer.

@allie.bsky.social Apropos of nothing I came back to the piss video this week and it truly is an incredible achievement. All of which is to say, I noticed that you have merch, and I for one would instantly buy a “don’t talk to me till I’ve had my morning mug of piss” mug or whatever. Just sayin.

There is a moment at what feels like the half way point of Sinners that is unbearably lovely and reminds me more than a little of the school gym sequence in the recent West Side Story. Immaculate visual storytelling.

The people in this showing are less pumped about fist bumping or apelleting ourselves as “The Brutalist Piss Squad” than I expected during the intermission.

This is my favorite line in any movie ever.

My spouse will give me shit for this because I have declined to go for like 15 years now but the Cup Noodle Museum might be the most innovative museum I have ever seen.

If there’s any question about my waspiness, my child has requested I make a Wait Wait Don’t Tell Me card for their audio player.

I tell ya, I’m tired of this world, these people. I’m tired of getting no respect

My spouse getting a byline on the Substack of a journalist we have been a fan of for more than a decade is… I’m bursting with pride and life is weird.

The number of switch games that require an online connection or nah you for being in airplane mode is a huge bummer… ya’ll know it’s a portable system, right?

Using only a restaurant, tell us where you went to college.

God grant me the confidence to coin a word like brainchild instead of just saying idea.

If Alan Wake turned out to be a creative director at a major game studio, he’d be Alan Lake. We gotta find a remedy for this ignorant discourse kids.

Man I can’t believe I slept on One Cut of the Dead. What a remarkable movie.

Alan Wake 2 spoilers for a very specific subset of elder millennials so ya know scroll on if that bugs you… Holy shit a new Poe song. This is unfairly laser focused subject matter.

Newsflash that should surprise no one: Alan Wake 2 is… pretty fuckin’ good.

I was today years old (meaning 39 because it’s my birthday) when I found out you could lift and toss the car in the Simpsons arcade game. How did I never try that before?

Sometimes there's so much beauty in the world, I feel like I can't take it.

[lou bega voice] ladies and gentlemen, this is gymnopedie no. 2

I’ve said precious little here but it must be stated: The Creator is an irredeemably rancid piece of shit of a movie, and even if it wasn’t astonishingly racist, which it is, it’d still be an insipid and insight-less waste of time and resources.

My kid spent all of our nightly reading time reading to me for the first time ever today and, uh, sure wasn’t expecting to digest that milestone on some random unassuming Tuesday night.

The other Robert Brandin was my grandpa. My best friend (who was stationed half a world away) sent me an email with his (my grandpa’s) obituary in college joking “lol ur dead” to which I got to respond with the most gloriously awkward email saying no, the guy I’m related to/named after is dead.

I also have tremendous fondness for the middle period well past this and just before trivially home-piratable everything where there were suburban strip mall ass stores that sold bookcases filled to the rafters with clearly bootlegged anime DVDs (RIP Animeniacs in Denver circa ‘04ish).

I think I’ve maybe seen enough game (and other) dev folks on here to have some chance of getting an answer: Are there any de facto industry standard profanity filter as a service vendors out there worth a hoot? Specifically for usernames?

All told, Donald Trump is going to be indicted in more states than Sufjan Stevens writes albums about.

Ok I’m done those were the highlights from the last 4 years because I’m bad at posting.

Cars 2 and Ocean’s 12 are secretly the best middle chapters that everybody hates in their respective trilogies. Welcome my two hour TED talk about shit that literally nobody gives a fuck about.

Chuck, it's Marvin. Your cousin, Marvin Debussy. You know that new sound you're looking for? Well, listen to this! *points phone at the moon*

Arnold! Arnold, it’s Marvin. Your cousin, Marvin Schoenberg. You know that new sound you’re looking for? Well, listen to this! *presses each number on the phone exactly once*

When you’re dating that super bougie chick and everything is perfect about her…

Gonna inaugurate this account with some of the few posts of mine from the other site that still make me chortle heartily.

Browsing things on gopher, which dates me terribly. Also Mr. T Ate My Balls.

This is my first post on this website.
