When people talk about Christian music they're always talking about, like, Mozart's Requiem mass or whatever music Joyce Brown listened to in church as a kid, and never like "Chop Suey" or "Head Like a Hole," and I think that's a big mistake.

I don’t know what the answer is, but requiring folks to move to the most expensive places in the country for work, not paying them enough to own homes or save, and then laying them off ain’t it

X-Men '97 made a lot of good choices and got a lot of things right, but I think the key to it all is they nailed Cyclops.

Interviewer: Can you explain this gap in your resume? Tabletop Game Dev: Well, this game was canceled after the licensing deal fell through at the last minute. This game just failed to gel and it was canceled, too. This one was canceled after lackluster sales from a bloated scope-creep project...

Interviewer: Can you explain this gap in your resume? Author: I was getting bogged down in those scenes so I jumped ahead to the critical plot beats. I'll smooth them out in the next pass.

I quite liked Thunderbolts*. It turns out that a bunch of losers doing stupid shit and accidentally being heroes is sort of my jam. It has that in common with GotG, but the Thunderbolts* are even more nakedly broken, closer to the edge. It has a strong emotional through-line. Go see it.

This is an excellent take on the recent "but the men" discourse. There is a problem with young men, and the problem is that for a complex variety of social and biological reasons, young men often find it hard not to be a dick to people. The solution is to start teaching them how, earlier.

Star Wars is a thing that contains within it both Andor (truly excellent) and Skeleton Crew (really fun), and both are good in their own way but they are *very *different *ways. I genuinely can't figure out if this is a great triumph of the setting or a fatal flaw.
