How will I know that the new Superman movie is a Superman movie if he doesn’t fight Zod in it?

Early 10 year wedding anniversary/birthday gift for my wife. She loved it.

Until “Breath of the Wild,” this was true for me (“A Link to the Past”).

Tomorrow, we're streaming *FROM THE NINTENDO STORE IN SF* to celebrate the launch of the Nintendo Switch 2! Once we get our consoles, we're rushing back to the studio and playing all night long. Get ready for the launch party to end all launch parties!

Been checking my email every few hours to make sure my Switch 2 preorder hasn’t been cancelled. Thursday feels so far away.

Jonathan Joss did not deserve to be murdered on the second day of Pride Month. He should have been living with his husband and their dogs in a home that wasn’t burned down by homophobes. Protect all your queer friends and families, hold them tight, make sure they know they are loved and protected.

Dear Sen. Ernst, I noticed that Jr. doesn’t know what the hell he’s doing! What are you going to do about it? -Constituent Dear Constituent, Well, we all are going to die. -Ernst

Let’s talk about the immaculate character poster art for DICK TRACY.

Here- first teaser. Much more to come…

I wish my cousin would have asked to help him get a Switch 2 before I ignored Nintendo’s invite to purchase one (I already had my preorder by then).

Past $7k in donations! Almost halfway! gofund.me/cf20897c

Do I even need to watch the Doctor Who finale now since Bluesky has no chill?

I've spent the last two and a half hours digitally cleaning, reediting, color grading, and reinserting the deleted Anchorhead scenes back into A New Hope just for the fun of it.

Five favorite black-and-white films: Night of the Living Dead Casablanca Seven Samurai Dragonwyck Dead of Night

Hilarious. #Superman

Happy birthdays to the Kings of Horror, Christopher Lee (today), Vincent Price (today), and Peter Cushing (yesterday)!

Finally saw "Captain America: Brave New World" and "*Thunderbolts." The former was okay, the latter I enjoyed quite a bit.

Just look at the video game “crash” of the last couple of years. All these layoffs happening after successful games. And why? Because the venture capitalists investing in the stock projected growth based on the game spike of 2020 during the pandemic and the normal games market didn’t break records.

Being at a company that goes into crisis mode (layoffs included) not because less money is coming in from the year before but because they are making more than the year before, just not as much more as they projected they would increase profits, is quite a look at how corporate America operates.

Deleted social media off of my phone. Now, I've got to access a computer to use it. We'll see how long this lasts.

No thanks. I don’t want @johneltenney.bsky.social to dislike me (and really, I’d rather be a good person).

First Trailer in 7 days…

It’s astonishing how misunderstood this is: AI is currently theft. That’s it. It’s that simple. And until it pays, it remains theft.

#AppleTV+ has some great sci fi shows. They seem like they’d be a good fit for future seasons of #TheWheelofTime. #WOTskies #SaveWOT

When your favorite show is cancelled, you try to save it. What else is there? #TheWheelOfTime #SaveWOT

Dammit. This show is so good. #TheWheelofTime deadline.com/2025/05/the-...

Disney should consolidate their streaming services. Ditch Disney+ and change to Hulu + Disney (Star + Disney outside the US), where Disney, Marvel, Star Wars, etc. are hubs within the larger, merged service.

Just completed a 36 hour fast, and I’m feeling good.

Tech billionaires are actively trying to make you miserable.

I am never going to review new releases again. I refuse to play stupid games with studios, and these days, either you are on their PR team, or you have no access. Fuck aaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaallllllllll of this.

A good thread! Accessibility conversations are oft misguided (and shortsighted). What if you break your thumb? Get arthritis? Sure would be great if the games you love had accessibility options so you could customize your controls!

Because he has dementia.

If I could only meet one celebrity, it’d be @officialmelbrooks.bsky.social. His films probably had the most impact on shaping my sense of humor, and I don’t know that I could thank him enough for it.

2 years ago, I had blown in insulation added to my attic. I specified I needed the floor joists to remain exposed because I’d be converting the attic into usable space within a couple of years. Today, ready to start that, I discovered that they just buried everything in 8 inches of insulation.
