John Boorman is 93.
This anecdote about him & Lee Marvin has quite the punchline.

Mommy covered her face with her hands and now she’s lost media 💔
We have to take the phrase "Lost Media" away from YouTubers for awhile until they reeducate themselves on what that actually means.

If there's ever a podcast about Tim Robinson, and there's an episode covering the work... the discography... the oeuvre... the métier... of Wazey Waynes, I need to be on that.

This is The Rover. When I was really tired late last night I accidentally started calling it "the buggy" and layer had to find/replace every instance of "buggy" with "rover".

I received the very rare Nintendo Home Race game this week, and it is in absolute great condition - never been played with

Until now!

Please witness its first race, 60 years after it left the Nintendo factory...

With David Rosen's death, bad information about Sega as a company is starting to re-emerge across the internet.

I will try to give a very condensed version of the Sega corporate shenanigans here as to clear some of the air. 🧵

I'd trade away a lifetime of my Tetris and Doom skills to be way better at Herzog Zwei.

I like the idea of those Framework laptops *in theory*, but I'd rather just have a ton of ports and be done with it. It would be weird to be in the middle of something and realize you bought one USB module too few or whatever. And one's taken up by the charger!

New video up! Kind of a re-post as this combines my old parts 1 & 2 of the Contra retrospectives from 2024, but there is a new section added to the end with some extra stuff since uncovered. Enjoy! Sharing around is much appreciated :) youtu.be/Ap10X-REdlk

Top 90 games I played in 2025:
(as the first image notes, anything with an asterisk was released this year, anything with a dash was a 2025 rerelease of an older thing, and i did not include early access games cos it seems tacky to judge stuff that's incomplete.)

Just asked my cat out loud, "Do I want to accept a fief and become a lord?" and her response was to say "Brrrt," then start staring at my laundry basket.
