When I started my podcast, I had plenty to say, but I found that trying to say it just resulted in a bunch of "uh" and "um" and so I gave up on improvising and wrote out a script, and it's worked out quite well.

I liked this Thanksgiving episode. And I'll admit publicly that I'm going to steal that Super Play Action Football track for use in one of my future episodes; there's a very specific place in a very specific playlist I'm working on that is perfect for its vibe.
On this episode of the show. Producer of the show Carly cooks up a Thanksgiving meal that will fill you up with joy and great tunes

I'm frustrated with capitalism, so I'm buying my kids copies of Mao's Little Red Book for Christmas.
But I want them to know how much I value them, so I've spent extra to get the Special Limited Collector's Edition with the lenticular holographic cover and bonus commentary.

At $1.19, it's worth it just for the soundtrack. But it's got more to offer than just the soundtrack!
Also, Danganronpa is a game where you can feel free to play it with a guide if you have trouble intuiting what the devs want you to say in trials. It's OK. Professor Tom gave you permission.

My son's been telling me about the DC Absolute Universe. I have some character ideas.
Absolute Maxie Zeus runs Gotham's most successful gyro restaurants, but all the gyros contain HUMAN FLESH!
Absolute Plastic Man is the Great Pacific Garbage Patch, which fights crime after achieving sentience.

This is literally a thing in my password manager, and it's been so for more than a year.
Tony: Hey Dave. Check it out. I added a button to the login page.
Dave: Oh yeah?
Tony: Yeah it's right there. See that right there, little oval in blue with a check mark next to it, says "stay logged in on this device"?
Dave: Oh yeah ok cool. What's it do?
Tony: literally nothing

This is as close as I can get to enjoying the part of the human brain that is susceptible to Fortniteification

I'm sure this game is SFW, but it looks like it should have a lot of filthy content alongside a banging Naotoshi Nishino soundtrack.

One of my darling cats threw up this morning. She's quite fond of our Christmas tree (which is up early thanks to my daughter's efforts), so the cat puke was full of Christmas tree needles. It was quite festive.

I don't know about you, but I'm thankful for Rando's adventures. Saving the galaxy goes well with pumpkin pie, you know.
Rando Calrissian is back, stuck with the bewitching Crura Fallopian and her syndicate, while @shujinacademy.bsky.social's mix throws you straight into the chaos of this epic episode.

This is such an odd box art choice, as it discards the branding from the arcade original.

Better ideas for video game award categories:
- best original game that’s not a sequel or part of an existing series
- best new fighting game character
- best voice performance of grunts/barks/non-dialogue
- best game with no MTX
- best patch/update to a live-service game
- best bang for your buck

BREAKING: My wife and daughter are not enamoured with any variant on "Left Paddle", including "Elpie", "Lefty", and "Paddy".
I'm calling my wife's judgment into question here, and her stance on the kitten's name is exhibit B.
(Exhibit A is that she continues to remain married to me.)
