I'm Chip. Aside from making game trailers for a living I'm a let's player that's been at it since 2008. The LPs I do with my best friend @mynameisgrant.bsky.social are absurdly thorough. If you want to know about a game and see it played well, check out our stuff. www.youtube.com/@ChipCheezum...

Up until recently, the only big mod for Metal Gear Solid 5 was Infinite Heaven, a kinda 'everything and the kitchen sink' sandbox.

Seems a new heavy hitter is up. Definitive Subsistence, letting you play every mission as a dynamic OSP operation where each encounter's solution changes the next.

thiel, man, what the fuck are you talking about

He describes the plot of Watchmen, a 1986 graphic novel involving superheroes grappling with moral questions about humanity against the backdrop of impending nuclear war:

The antihero Ozymandias, the antichrist-type figure, is sort of an early-modern person. He believes this will be a timeless and eternal solution – eternal world peace. Moore is sort of a late-modern. In early modernity, you have ideal solutions, ‘perfect’ solutions to calculus. In late modernity, things are sort of probabilistic. And at some point, he asks Dr Manhattan whether the world government is going to last. And he says that ‘nothing lasts forever.’ So you embrace the antichrist and it still doesn’t work.

Thiel later finds biblical meaning in the manga One Piece, discussing how he believes it represents a future where an antichrist-like one-world government has repressed science. He believes that the hero, Monkey D Luffy, represents a Christlike figure.

In One Piece, you are set in a fantasy world, again sort of an alternate earth, but it’s 800 years into the reign of this one-world state. Which, as the story unfolds, gradually gets darker and darker. You sort of realize, in my interpretation, who runs the world and it’s something like the antichrist. There’s Luffy, a pirate who wears a red straw hat, sort of like Christ’s crown of thorns. And then towards the end of the story, transforms into a figure who resembles Christ in Revelation.

Thiel, along with a researcher and writer at Thiel Capital, explored these ideas at greater length in an essay for the religious journal First Things earlier this month.

It's da weekend, so you should catch up on our watch-along podcast discussing the 2000s miniseries The 10th Kingdom! Where a guy playing the big bad wolf (in recovery from being bad) somehow pulls it off and is charming and not cringe!

David Simon, creator of ‘The Wire’, being interviewed by Ari Shapiro (NPR)

SHAPIRO: OK, so you've spent your career creating television without Al, and I could imagine today you thinking, boy, I wish I had had that tool to solve those thorny problems...
SIMON: What?
SHAPIRO: ...Or saying...
SIMON: You imagine that?
SHAPIRO: ...Boy, if that had existed, it would have screwed me over.
SIMON: I don't think Al can remotely challenge what writers do at a fundamentally creative level.
SHAPIRO: But if you're trying to transition from scene five to scene six, and you're stuck with that transition, you could imagine plugging that portion of the script into an Al and say, give me 10 ideas for how to transition this.
SIMON: I'd rather put a gun in my mouth.

Big shoutouts to @mynameisgrant.bsky.social and @chipcheezum.bsky.social for this podcast (both this iteration and it's JoJo's variant), it really enhanced the Farscape experience

Now I gotta fit Seaquest and The 10th Kingdom into my watch schedule-

Bizarre Podcast: Space Puppets

This podcast was the reason for me starting Farscape!

If you want information on any of the episodes of the franchise, or just want to hear Grant lead Chip through this series for the first time, I highly recommend downloading the pod, it was a really fun listen

The podcast icon for Bizarre Podcast Space Puppets: the title is strewn across different objects like a radio, a book, and a television. There is a pair of cartoon eyes at the top right wearing blue and red 3D goggles. The bottom of the screen has the intro to the show: "a radiation wave hit and I got shot through a wormhole. Now I'm lost in some distant part"
