I thought Midler was kinda fun, it definitely didn’t need a sequel

I told my students this all the time when I taught a freshman seminar. It’s not just about your degree, it’s about figuring out who you are, what you want to do, how you’re going to do it, developing personal and professional connections, etc. - it’s really what you make of it

College can give you so many life skills that just aren't in the description. I know it's not for everyone but it helped me in many ways

it was said by someone like half a year ago that learning how to deliver passable if not good work under both immense pressure and short notice is actually an important part of the college experience and an incredibly useful skill and the person who said that was right

I wrote a 15 page report on heraldic symbolism in medieval armor and weapon design for my art history class the night before it was due (8am class). Made up 90% of it (only found one book for reference) and got an A. GenAI could fucking never.

Absolum is out today and I absolutely loved loved loved it. One of my favorites of the year and at risk of being overlooked, especially since the also-fantastic Hades 2 just came out. But don’t sleep on this one.

Absolum Review - A Sleeper Hit

Infusing a classic beat-'em-up structure with a modern roguelike loop is a match made in heaven.

The Orphan Crusher is here to stay. If we don’t feed more Orphans to the Crusher the Orphan Crushing industry will die. It’s time to wake up to the reality of the Orphan Crusher. The Orphan Crusher is worth billions. We need to teach people to use the Orphan Crusher. It’s here to stay.

And here is the finished product. Pretty happy with it, the eyes are maybe a little too cartoony but I sort of dig it

really and truly, I believe that the entire mouse functionality of the Switch 2 Joy-Cons was implemented just so we could finally get an official North American release of MARIO & WARIO

Y'know, when people have asked me about my dream game, I've always said a runaway slave + Underground Railroad project or something set in or around the Haitian Revolution.

Someone somewhere is already taking this on and infusing the work with all the courage that the subject matter deserves.

SCOOP: Last year, Ubisoft cancelled an Assassin's Creed game set during Reconstruction. Was to feature a Black Assassin who, among other things, fought the rise of the Klan

Sources: Leadership nixed it over concerns re: U.S. political climate, backlash to Yasuke

Detroit. Tigers. Buddies. I’m proud of you.

You realize you can score this many runs EVERY game, right? Not just when you’re facing elimination?

(I would also submit the novel was not as good as the original novel so it's not like they botched great source material necessarily)

I watched it not that long ago. It's still kind of bad but there are moments that are still good.

(Everything from when the T-Rex hits the mainland on sucks though and it's pretty clear why Crichton didn't go that way with it)

I think at the very least it fares better as a franchise based on a Spielberg classic than, say, JAWS did

Bryan "Gazpacho" Carr @learnonaut.bsky.social · 1d

that being said I am never not going to laugh at D'Onfrio's villain monologue being cut off mid sentence when he sees a velociraptor

Yeah a lot of World's issues come from the fact they really had some great ideas but focused more on the Pratt of it all

Bryan "Gazpacho" Carr @learnonaut.bsky.social · 1d

but I'll still watch it, it's still watchable, it's just not good. It's the worst of the lot but I won't skip it when I inevitably revisit the whole franchise again

Bryan "Gazpacho" Carr @learnonaut.bsky.social · 1d

also I really, REALLY loved the idea of dinosaurs coming into the "human" world that the last couple movies have worked with, and the opening to REBIRTH was absolutely heartbreaking because of course that's how it's gonna go down
