And that’s why you don’t watch bad movies ironically.

Got asked today if I had a son that worked at the Target I was in. I said no, so they asked if I had a brother that worked there.

I was wearing a red shirt, so I was asking for it this time.

I don’t know how to monetize it as a skill, but I am constantly asked, “Do you work here?” everywhere I go.

It can be a restaurant or a clothing store or a book store. It’s usually at Target and I am never wearing a red shirt. I just look like an employee, I guess.

This Jennie song kind of sounds like it’s being sung by Fi from Zelda: Skyward Sword.

Happy to say I'm a co-author of @lostincult.co.uk's KILL THE PAST: 25 YEARS OF GRASSHOPPER MANUFACTURE! @metallicaisrad.bsky.social and I wrote about GHM's history through its games, delving into what makes them tick, how they fit into the company's ethos, and more. www.lostincult.co.uk/killthepast

It's a good episode!

I enjoyed our 24 hours of Kojima-esque marketing from Nintendo.

Looks like they’re trying to figure out the location of Jake Sully.

Kyle Hilliard @kylehilliard.com · 5d

Yeah, it was a little odd. It was mostly action sequences and underwater sequences that were higher frame rate. But it did make me feel like I was truly watching something entirely new, which I don't often feel.

Kyle Hilliard @kylehilliard.com · 5d

After seeing Avatar: The Way of Water this weekend in IMAX with the higher frame-rate scenes... I think am a proponent for it now? It's certainly unique.

They didn't 😩

Needed IMAX Laser glasses, which these were not.

My glasses didn’t work. I had to use the theater’s 😢

Kyle Hilliard @kylehilliard.com · 11d

Getting ready for Avatar: The Way of Water IMAX 3D this weekend like a real fan*.

*And by real fan I, of course, mean I think the Avatars are neat, but mostly I just like big spectacle movies that are best experienced in specific formats and also I skipped it the first time it was in theaters.

Thank you we. We desperately need the support 😭

I don't think we do. But I would love if we did and I think we should.

Don’t worry everyone. It’s just an “update” to the price.

Ghost of Yōtei has an effective and incredibly satisfying setup, and its core idea – the joy of knowing your goals and completing them – extends to every element of the game creating a consistently satisfying experience that is difficult to put down.
