Such a truism that one of my absolute favorite King of the Hill jokes is: Dale: "Ya know what Ford stands for? 'Fix It Again, Tony.'" Hank: "Dangit, Dale, that's Fiat."

When I visited NYC several years ago, my South-Midwestern self got stuck holding a door and someone was like "You can't do that here." Too many people, not enough time, and not considered rude whatsoever to not hold a door open. Hard to accept that

A ★★½ review of Sinister (2012)
The final act usually makes or breaks a horror movie and boy does Sinister really fumble the final act. I have to believe that it was the demonic influence that kept Ethan Hawke from turning on a sing...

SNW unfortunately is as inoffensively "progressive" as a committee of Paramount execs could stomach to make Star Trek. It had so much promise and instead it's just the corpse of Trek, shamelessly mined to the bone for nostalgia

Oh, also recommend The Expanse if you've never done that series! Probably my favorite sci-fi series, and the SyFy/Amazon adaptation is also very good.

I've really been enjoying it. It's my current read and I think Hobb is amazing at character writing. The story and world building are all good too, but the characters are where it shines for me.

Most of them are! The series has an interesting structure. The first trilogy is first person POV with Fitz, said Assassin. 2nd trilogy switches to a 3rd person ensemble cast in a different part of the world. 3rd trilogy back to Fitz. Then back to a different ensemble, then finishes with Fitz.

Doctor's Orders is such a fun episode. John Billingsly and Jolene Blalock are always fantastic in their roles and pairing them together is always a good choice, especially in this episode! All pre-Kurtzman era Trek is available for free on Pluto btw just in case anyone was wondering #StarTrek

I'm hard pressed to think of a singular book. The Long Way to a Small Angry Planet was a solid, singular sci-fi book. Fun characters, decent story. If you want to start a series, I highly recommend Robin Hobb's Realm of the Elderlings. Audiobooks have mixed quality, but the books are fantastic!

A ★★★★ review of Resident Evil (2026)
If you aren't a die-hard Resident Evil purist, this movie is a lot of fun. If you're a big fan of the games, set aside those lore expectations and take it for what it is. The movie is surprisingly fun...

Three panel comic. Panel 1: a horseshoe crab watches as a variety of prehistoric creatures swim towards an ethereal light. An ammonite calls back to the crab, “come on, horseshoe crab! We’re all evolving!” Panel 2: the horseshoe crab stays in position and replies, “nahh that’s crazy” Panel 3: the horseshoe crab is superimposed in front of a future premonition: a rather miserable-looking human slouched in the glow of a desktop computer. The horshoe crab swims away and says, “good luck tho”

Also, pretty much any moment where the silence lingers would be cut. Gotta keep those scenes moving. Hell, they'd probably cut the seat belt scene too, because studios can't trust an audience with clever foreshadowing.

The scene in Lanterns is so good and it didn't hit me until after the episode that "oh shit, they're marketing the show coming out later." Smart route to go tbh. It fit the scene, got HP on the brain. Fuck JKR though

I'm aware of Bluesky being shitty in big picture vague ways that I haven't really looked into, like with their security and maybe some AI stuff? What's going on? I personally kinda hate Threads. Every single post over there is just engagement farming

Steam is technically also renting you a license to access their software until such a time they no longer support it. If your game gets removed from the platform, your .exe doesn't work without jumping through hoops to trick it. GOG, on the other hand, is DRM free

Concurrent Player trackers are the same people obsessed with box office numbers and superhero power levels. Can it be a useful metric? Sure, in the right discussion or with the right context. Is it the end-all be-all? No and you're annoying shut up

This is something I don't see brought up nearly enough! Not every game is designed to be infinitely replayable. Majority of players don't even finish their games, so one being entertaining enough to complete is actually kind of a big deal

Watching a video where someone is claiming a $35 cozy game is a failure because it's concurrent player numbers dropped 6 weeks after launch... We are so fucked in how people perceive games, their value, and expectations. It's not stardew valley numbers!?!! Well then it must be a piece of shit...

We’re going to hear about how everyone loved Dolly, and that feels true. But it’s good to remember, and to her credit, that she was attacked for her AIDS activism, her vaccine advocacy, her LGBTQ+ support and even, more recently, for her reading initiatives. She ALWAYS stood firm when it mattered.

When I see this sort of anti-trans rhetoric, it translates into my mind "Will fuck over a minority if it's expedient for me politically." And there are way too many Democrats who still live in that space.

Juliette is the primary POV. Anything we learn about the history of the Silos should be learned through her or one of the other characters. Otherwise it's taking time telling a different story. That's what spinoff shows are for

Kev, Opossum King 🐀 @sonofclark.bsky.social · 04/07/2026
If the main characters & audience POV of the story don't know those things, we shouldn't know them. It's irrelevant to the primary story being told. It'd be like getting random flashbacks in Severance to the formation of Lumen--irrelevant to the story at hand unless the characters are learning it 🤷

Kev, Opossum King 🐀 @sonofclark.bsky.social · 04/07/2026
I'm sure it is, but the framing vehicle of it all is not something I personally enjoy. Our POV has primarily been Juliette & some of the side characters. Imo the flashbacks should come about from the main POV(s) learning that info, not just randomly injected in season, but it's a me problem 🤷
