Used to do this on the other site so here goes: completed media thread 2025 edition!
I won't note every single thing but I like this as a way to track what stuff I experienced and what I thought in general terms. Note that I have only ever given like two 10/10s ever, just the way I roll.

A reminder to the news media: “conflicting accounts” is what you say BEFORE the incontrovertible video evidence appears. After that, your job is to ask why one side is lying, not to repeat the lie and pretend no one knows the truth.

Waking up to a lot of Americans saying things like "this isn't us" and "we should treat this as harshly as Putin's invasion of Ukraine" and, yes, you do know that the US has been doing this for decades right? Your gov are the bad guys (just as my own is as they sell arms to Israel etc).

If I had a nickel for every excellent author who was weirdly into bugs, I'd have two nickels, which isn't a lot but etc etc.

Just finished Bananza.
Final Boss and lead up to it was one of the most electric gaming experiences this year, absolutely peak.
Every other boss fight kinda sucked though.
I maintain my opinion that good 3D platformer boss fights are infinitely rarer than 2D versions.

If you begin Star Trek: Voyager episode Spirit Folk at exactly 11:49:35 on New Year's Eve, Ensign Harry Kim will kiss a cow as the clock strikes midnight. Join in a very dumb annual tradition and start 2026 off on the right hoof.

Some games ease you into the concept/plot gently. Some start you in medias res. But only one goes "you now uncontrollably transform into demons and must practice cannibalism to survive, here have the greatest miniboss theme ever composed" in the first ~20 minutes. God I love DDS.

Regular niche reminder that if programmed music doesn't sound good it's not "because it's MIDI". MIDI is the language used to communicate to the synthesizer so that makes no sense, it's like saying "Spanish sounds bad because it's written using the alphabet".

A good chunk of the way through Tales of the Abyss now (battle music just changed for the second time so I guess act 3?), mostly really enjoying but there sure are some misses with this cast, in fact I think Anise might be my least favourite playable Tales character yet.

Look sometimes despite the *waves hand in all directions* everything, you have to appreciate pure comedy when you see it.
Q: Are you affirming that you think President Trump is a fascist?
MAMDANI: I've spoken about--
TRUMP: That's okay. You can just say yes. I don't mind.

In a normal world, this should be an immense scandal in Europe.
Le Monde has a long article describing the hellish life of Nicolas Guillou, a French judge at the ICC in The Hague, due to U.S. sanctions punishing him for authorizing arrest warrants against Netanyahu and Gallant for war crimes in Gaza.
Guillou's daily existence has been transformed into a Kafkaesque nightmare. He cannot: open or maintain accounts with Google, Amazon, Apple, or any US company; make hotel reservations (Expedia canceled his booking in France hours after he made it); conduct online commerce, since he can't know if the packaging is American; use any major credit card (Visa, Mastercard, Amex are all American); access normal banking services, even with non-American banks, as banks worldwide close sanctioned accounts; conduct virtually any financial transaction.
He describes it as being "economically banned across most of the planet," including in his own country, France, and where he works, the Netherlands.
That's the real shocking aspect of this: the Americans are:
- punishing a European citizen
- for doing his job in Europe
- applying laws Europe officially supports
- at an institution based in Europe
- that Europe helped create and fund
and Europe is not only doing essentially nothing to protect him, they're actively enforcing America's sanctions against their own citizen - European banks closing his accounts, European companies refusing him service, European institutions standing by while Washington destroys a European judge's life on European soil.
Again, in a normal world, European leaders and citizens should be absolutely outraged about this. But we've so normalized the hollowing out of European sovereignty that the sight of a European citizen being economically executed on European soil for upholding European law is treated, at best, as an unfortunate technical complication in transatlantic
