Marvel is wild because somebody will show up wearing the yellow suit and the little X belt and it’s like, oh I guess they can summon eldritch monsters from another dimension because they have a couple extra base pairs.

Look, I am ready to follow Remedy anywhere and that goes double for Control, but at base the delta between my interest in playing as Jesse Faden vs playing as her brother is vast.

I'm not going to pretend this looks, like, "good" or "well considered" or anything like that. but I have to concede that reworking a pretty direct soviet union allegory into being about Silicon Valley/Late stage capitalism is at least interesting and possibly not a wrong impulse.

I always forget how big wind turbines are until I drive past them. there's something eerie and unearthly about them looming out of the mist. like a kaiju but in a way that makes you feel fundamentally better about the state of the world.

You think Mary and Joseph sold that Frankincense and Myrrh? Like it’s a nice gesture but if you are not already pretty set up financially it is kind of frivolous to keep around.

I think it’s time we collectively acknowledge that “you too” means “I reciprocate your expressed general good wishes regardless of how the specifics of our immediate circumstances may differ” and move on with our lives.

I think it’s fun that extremely minor one joke Peanuts character 5 and his even more obscure sisters 3 and 4 are immortalized in Charlie Brown Christmas largely because it came out after Sherry but before Peppermint Patty, Marcie and Franklin.

Starfleet Academy preview looks promising, even if the 31st century is not my most favourite place in the era. Maybe they can build it out and make it feel lived in. Having Robert Picardo goes a long way because I am fundamentally what is known as a Mark.

Watched the Beauty and the Beast Christmas special with the kids. You think after the curse was finally broken they went up to the old pipe organ room and found Forte’s skeleton scattered all over the place?

not to give him credit, per se. but at least HP Lovecraft channeled his virulent racism into something productive. like, pretty much the worst case scenario for an author, but gotta be close to the best case for a big old racist.

This is my seasonal plea that we all cool it on the grinch a bit. he's fine. that one cartoon was pretty good. he hasn't got the juice to operate on a Santa Claus level not least of all because his main thing is not liking Christmas very much. at least get Scrooge in there to spread it around some.

Real good and long running prank by Walt Disney on everybody born after 1960 to make Winnie the Pooh and just cast people who sound like that normally.
