This rules.

On the one hand, seeing Amazon get creative control of James Bond is alarming. On the other, only 2 of the last 5 films were truly great, so …

I would be absolutely loving Civ7 if it wasn’t crashing on me 3-4 times every play session.

And vacation down at the Gulf of Mexico!

Five Guys and The Gorge. Pretty great V-day.

What time is it?

Days Gone remaster? Awesome. That game was severely underrated.

Got my flu/COVID double whammy vaccine. Arm hurts.

I haven’t really enjoyed a Super Bowl halftime show since Left Shark, but I’m LOL at everyone needing the world to know they didn’t like Kendrick’s. Something more going on there?

At Cabaret yesterday, Cliff said his line “…if you’re not against all this then you’re for it. Or you might as well be”. The audience interrupted the scene to applaud that line so strongly it stopped the show. Doing a show about the onset of fascism right now is. . . chilling.

Gladiator II … turned it off. What trash.

SO COOL that Vox Media had two rounds of layoffs in the past three months and keeps cutting our budgets and yet somehow there's $20 million for one person

Ohno, BioWare. Godammit.

I was a writer at BioWare for 5 years (2011-2016). I leaned a lot during that time from exceptional folx in many disciplines, but also specifically from my fellow writers & our amazing editors, on both the ME & DA brands. Today, not a single one of those writers & editors remains employed there.

They plagiarized our trillion dollar plagiarism machine!?

If you see this, post a fictional artist/band you'd go to see live.

It’s gotta feel so good for Tony Romo to be so much better than Tom Brady at something

Guess it’s a bad time to be a fan of Colombian Supremo coffee.
