Yeah comparison, thief of joy, etc, but I rewatched Grizzly Man and saw my (mustache's) future and it's bright

59 - Spider-Man 2: So Smart! w/ Justin from @librarypunk.bsky.social We learn the beautiful lessons of the Disney corporation: it's not a big deal to beat up your girlfriend if she's being crazy, gay people do not have sex, and drones are very cool! soundcloud.com/agabpod/59-s...

In some ways this is the government now

After reporting the news, games media must now grapple with what the call to boycott Xbox means for us. I wrote about why we must and how we can orient games writing towards liberation. Games nor words alone will save us, but we can as individuals express solidarity and possibility in all we do.

Impressively deep and on-the-nose thoughts from a four-star review of Mickey 17

I went to gay nerd town USA and you’re a beloved city councilman, you cut the ribbon on a new park

I went to Gay Nerd Town, USA and everyone there was literally in love with you. They said it's because you have kind eyes.

Hatred for Boston City Hall is for the weak willed, for those who dare to stand in front of concrete majesty and say "but it doesn't have columns 👶😢" Okay then go to DC, the imperial core of shitty antique revivalism, the metropole of ugly reactionary aesthetic.

An extended reflection on Hoop's stellar early work. I feel like we barely broke the surface on this one, but I picked it, so ive bias. We hardly got to even mention his work on the Peter Paul and Mary tour documentary!

Waiting until the exact moment people forget about Weapons to start doing the Weapons Run around Boston's theater district (we recorded an episode about Weapons)

Reading case law, listening to Dust Bowl Ballads on repeat, watching Days of Heaven this evening, ive never been so annoying or so free. Happy Tuesday

Young guy in class debuted his fresh mustache this morning and when he walked in all his buddies went "okay WOW" hope hes having a good day

I think if Days of Girlhood had been released two years earlier it would have gotten the hyperpop treatment, with everyone liking it only half ironically and a well received dylan brady remix feat. alice LG and rebecca black or something. Fun destroyed by the culture war yet again smh

Another episode where I bring my unique "how exactly did you get this way" character to what was once a well respected show

My only take on Alien Earth so far is I would like one (1) of the eyeballs with eyes as a pet. Ill feed and walk her without being asked i promise please

NEW EPISODE: Though @rosegardenofeyes.bsky.social remains in the wilds of New England, join @laborkyle.bsky.social and @thelitcritguy.bsky.social for a discussion of why movies rock, the evils of American racial capitalism, & the metaphysical truth of zombie John Brown soundcloud.com/user-3179105...

Citizen of AGAB Nation sums up the pod @agabpod.bsky.social

After you play it (homework, mandatory), you should watch my favorite video essay ever from @thelitcritguy.bsky.social. I did the music. youtu.be/Dxve-8skKUM?...

NEW! 1st of 2 installments contextualizing Jameson's lectures at the 1977 Institute On Culture & Society, discusses "Marxism & Historicism," historicizing the lectures, recovering them, the commodity as its own ideology, long arc of Jameson's influence theamericanvandal.substack.com/p/the-jameso...

You: strong independent woman who dont need a man 💃✨️💪 Me: complete mess, needed a man badly, met a good one and locked that shit down immediately

I'm quoted extensively in this article about the occupation of Western Sahara where Christopher Nolan has been filming The Odyssey. www.themirror.com/entertainmen...

I can’t believe I hadn’t seen the full thing until this evening. What a beautiful piece of art.

To put a little of my own post-modern theology on main: I genuinely believe this to be true. And although history is also a graveyard of failed utopias, injustices, and miseries, I believe God reveals Their will to us by ever new possibilities, and by what They preserve and what They destroy.

Well honestly I was speechless When I woke up to your voice note You told me how you'd been Trying to reach me about my vehicles extended warranty

Script percolating. See it in a couple weeks

Struggle session, in the second ep we recorded after this I referred to "slam" as "hardstyle metalcore" because I couldn't remember the name. I promise to do better (will forget the name again).

People like reviews of popular films currently in theaters rather than long precis about their dad's fifth favorite jason statham "home alone but for red state conservatives" movie. Curious.

Wrapping up a precis for Horror Vanguard

We were in the presence of greatness. AGAB, the leading historiography podcast, talks the almighty power of the historical crashing into the present with the mighty @jesawyer.bsky.social. Also video games.

This episode with me and @laborkyle.bsky.social covers the true horror - the corrosive lure of posting through it.

The only time in recent memory a podcast caused me to just start shouting involuntarily. I am not immune to the opinions of The Gamers (TM).

My department, the fantastic CRMEP at Kingston University, is due to be closed mid-way through my PhD, as part of a slew of cuts to the Humanities and Social Sciences. We will be launching a challenge to this. Last year they tried to close us, and we fought it and won - we hope we can win again.

Hows it hanging
