ROMEO IS A DEAD MAN is a sweet reminder that games can just be as fun and vibrant as the people making them.

As a longtime Grasshopper fan it's a joy to see the team evolve while sticking to their guns.

おめでとう!! @sssuda51.bsky.social @ghmofficial.bsky.social

Unfortunately having held out all these years as a straight white man the day has arrived that I put on a Radiohead song of my own volition.

Sorry brothers and sisters the fight was given my best.

Got some 35 in from the past month, nothing exceptional but a few nice ones!

Finding my hand is maybe less steady than I think/need to consider actually slowing down to get my shots...

I kneecap myself by not stocking up on film from Japan need to amass more...

I have finally started Twin Peaks… and it’s really wonderful.

I can’t profess to being a diehard David Lynch fan BUT I first engaged with his stuff when I was like 14, so I’m due for a revisit.

It hurts just to hear it spoken.

No quarter for any of them.
Nasra Ahmed, a 23-year-old US citizen, was arrested and detained by ICE. She was held for TWO DAYS.

ICE agents handcuffed her, called her a racial slur, and she was knocked to the ground so hard she got a concussion.

This cannot continue happening. ICE needs to leave.

I’m missing vol 2 and 3 of Sunny so I’m reluctantly reading digitally—for Matsumoto my absolute favorite especially—but it IS nice taking screenshots of like every page.

Been saving this one for awhile now and somehow still wasn’t prepared for how good it would be.

It’s like a shitty Tom Clancy book if shitty Tom Clancy had the epiphany that the US was always the bad guy.

Absolute Christmas Tragedy made incredible black beans and zucchini and vegetables for work dinner and forgot the Oaxacan cheese and sour cream at home.

But I did manage the Yucateco

Maybe because I went in with such low expectations but Marty Supreme… good picture.

I don’t dislike Chalamet but I have a tough time seeing the character with him. Some great line reads in this though.

Looks like a billion bucks Jack Fisk, Darius Khondji, and Miyako Bellizzi tremendous artists.

A bit under a year or so removed from The Brutalist I think that it is a ~good~ film with a tremendous ending.

Ariane Labed coming out for like five minutes for the best five minutes of a three n a half hour movie is so funny she’s the best. And still the best credit needle drop in ages.
Very funny as The Brutalist goes into wider release all of the promo shots and video thumbnails are, like, the two or three frames in the movie where Adrien Brody is smiling.

Have not stopped thinking about the ending.
… And The Brutalist’s epilogue one of the year’s best punchlines.

Brady Corbet, three for three great films.

Labyrinth Of The Demon King, capitalization and all: EXCELLENT!

Aesthetically concise; early PS2 horror and Teruo Ishii films, Noroi, etc. Great sound design all around, down to character mumbles.

Really perfect pacing. No area overstays, the enemy variety is ample, systems as deep as needed.
