Can we hide TCM in the closet or something while WB gets put through the wood chipper? Just so we can keep them out of sight until it’s safe for them to come out again?

We switched to Apple Music in late September so I don’t have the full year, but my top albums for Oct and Nov are accurate.

don't really get all the hate about the Stranger Things kids not looking the right ages anymore. like, every season got hit with studio delays, strikes, pandemic, etc etc

it's not like Smallville or 90210 where fully adult men were cast as high schoolers from the jump

now that knifes out 3 is out proper i am reiterating my belief that there should be like 50 benoit blanc movies. they should have a columbo-esque legacy of running on sunday afternoons when their millennial audience all starts hitting 60.

Once again I, a former evangelical 90’s kid, am begging whoever has the rights to put Tooth and Nail’s Happy Christmas Volume 1 on vinyl and streaming. Please.

Instead of trying to describe what a game engine is I’m going to start telling anyone who asks “So how do you make a video game?” that to make a video game you must first choose - or create - a god.

I see we’re arguing about the definition of indie games, again. I totally understand why it’s vibes based for many people, but as a game dev I’d say an indie game is a game made by an independent team whose company is privately owned. There’s a lot of scale there but it’s a definition that works. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Seeing other narrative design people say that Clair Obscur had a bad 3rd act or bad ending(s)…I just can’t follow you there man. That shit ruled. Sorry. You break the combat wide fucking open and then get your choice of doing genocide or walking toward Omelas and saying “torturing that child rocks”
