One of the greatest thrills for a screenwriter is hearing their dialog brought to life by a talented performer - doubly so when it’s a stone-cold legend like John Boyega straight-up crushing it. More soon!

The feckless freedom-haters at @kindafunnyvids.bsky.social (low rating, low energy) tried to SILENCE me by EDITING my tribute video for Games Daily's 2000th episode. But I will not be CENSORED so I am posting the FULL, UNEDITED version here.

Meta Ray-Ban Display! I like them, ordered the ones I’m wearing (Sand) as the shiny black ones are a little too Austin Powers for me. But yeah, very cool.

I still can't get over the surreal experience of watching Trump effectively telling all our generals he is going to order them to kill American citizens in my city in a speech that he also stopped midway through to spend 5 minutes explaining how he is so smart for walks down stairs slowly.

Trump: "I'm very careful when I walk down stairs, like I'm on stairs, I walk very slowly. Nobody has to set a record. Just try not to fall because it doesn't work out well."

New PC posted and looking good! Mostly salvaged parts from old systems, I think I spent about $150 total. RTX 3080, i9-10850K, 32gb DDR4, all in an unassuming micro-ATX case! Should be less of an eyesore than the full tower I used to have as a living room gaming PC.

Trump: "The ones that are run by radical left Democrats -- what they've done to San Francisco, Chicago, New York, Los Angeles. They're very unsafe places & we're gonna straighten them out one by one. This is gonna be a major part for some people in this room. That's a war too. It's war from within"

It's coming... 🎃

A marker and coloured pencil drawing of the "Dancing Pumpkin Man" wearing an orange pumpkin mask and a black leotard, dancing to the Ghostbusters theme song. (This is a drawing so you can't hear the Ghostbusters theme song but it's implied.)

A young Wolfgang Puck just showed up in this episode of WHO’S THE BOSS and I’m high enough that’s it’s freaking me out

ONE BATTLE AFTER ENOUGH is phenomenal. Absolutely amazing how of-the-moment it feels. My Halloween fit is already well underway!

My first time building a PC in a micro-ATX case. This PSU is teeny-tiny, I’m shook!

Building a new PC today, mostly salvaged parts from previous rigs, should end up with something smaller and more performant. Also, modern mobos still ship with PS/2?
