I wish there was a bizarro version of Kickstarter that let people donate money to stop a project from happening, because I’d love to Kickstop Starfleet Academy.

I just discovered that my research is cited extensively in the Wikipedia entry for Nuka-Cola, and I'm feeling pretty good about it. 👍

Every comic cover since has been trying and failing to reach the heights glimpsed by this Carmine Infantino cover for Flash #133 in 1962. You may not like it but this is what peak performance looks like

Flash being turned into a puppet while thinking "I've got the strangest feeling I'm being turned into a PUPPET!". FUN FACT: it is impossible to see this cover and not want to see more

Currently bingeing @decafjedi.com and @bvigeant.bsky.social's Quest Quest podcast at work (because I should have started listening to it a long time ago, tbh) and nodding sensibly at their Very Correct Opinions. Well, most of them.

That's what I've heard. I guess I should add it to the queue.

My playthrough of Hugo's House of Horrors is now up on YouTube! I remember seeing shareware copies of this one beside the register at Software Etc. back in the day, and I'm glad I finally got a chance to play it.

I just saw a commercial for the Broncos/Jets game this weekend, and I'm pretty sure that Bo Nix and Sauce Gardner are both ChatGPT-generated names.

I'm sorry, but I just found out that Salt-N-Pepa, Kid 'n Play, and Martin Lawrence all worked together at the same Sears before hitting it big. 🤯

Even if it's not a great book and the author seems like a jerk and the publisher can't decide what to do with the royalties, at least someone finally got around to chronicling the previously unexplored history of RPGs on a Nintendo console.

Don't worry; we provide ample spoiler warnings before revealing too many of the game's secrets.
