One of the great losses to the web due to the death of Flash was the official Donnnie Darko website.  So weird, abstract, and stuffed full of hidden content and bizarre creative writing exercises from the Director - the very same ones that inspired the movie, in fact. Read more

It’s either the goobue or the namazu mount, depending on how I feel to other players. Either I come up and cheer them on or sneeze on them and refuse to elaborate further. Read more

“And what was the point of digital distribution and the internet if not to offer people more choices at the cost of almost nothing?” Read more

And this is why Sony approach is better. While some M.2 drive do cost more now than the console itself, eventually there will be deal or price drop from different brand that will make it more affordable. While Microsoft drive will probably stay at a fixed price.

We do have to remember that Sony did try that tactic with… Read more

Damn, I think that’s the first time I’ve seen The Asterisk since like 2013 Read more

The sickest part of all of this is how so many people don’t just want to ignore how someone can use their comedy platform to dehumanize people who are already under attack. No, that’s not enough. At the least, they want the dehumanized people to shut up and not complain. Hell, they want those who’ve been attacked to… Read more

Not watching won’t do anything when you already gave them $13 for the month. Cancel your damn subscription and leave it canceled. And cancel Prime while you are at it, too. Read more

The base game is wildly charming and the fact that there’s a somewhat deeper narrative to it hidden away in the environments you traverse took me by surprise. Read more

I loved the base game, started it after this DLC was out, and never felt compelled to play it. Combat was not the star of this fantastic game so I didn’t feel the need to spoil the experience by having more of its weakest element. Read more

That’s awesome.  Everybody should be able to enjoy gaming. Read more

I love that they are doing this, Gaming should be for everyone and its great to see Microsoft stepping up in this capacity.  Read more

Super happy to talk with you Jeremy about this! Read more

He is a party dude. I am left to conclude that the tourney organizers do not like to party.

Yeah, this was the breaking point for me.  I canceled my Netflix sub last night.  In the grand scheme of things, I doubt they care, but I can only do what I can do, and that includes not giving these people another dime of my money.   Read more

This is pretty standard for comedians in their 50s and 60s, unfortunately. I used to defend Joe Rogan (who would definitely defend Dave Chapelle) as a guy who’s misunderstood.

Sometime last year, I stopped listening to his podcast, because it went from being interesting, to him inviting older comedians on, and then… Read more

It’s mindblowing that a guy who quit his show because he felt the audience was laughing with the racism and not at it has now thrown in his lot exclusively with the people that drove him to quit in the first place.

That he quit as one of the most celebrated comics of his era, and returned to comedy as generic boomer… Read more

“Chappelle is one of the most popular stand-up comedians today, and we have a long standing deal with him. His last special “Sticks & Stones,” also controversial, is our most watched, stickiest and most award winning stand-up special to date. “ Read more
