Caught up on this season of #TheTraitors #TheTraitorsUS last night and this AM.
Gotta say- Rob is legit having one of the best reality show gameplay seasons of all time. S-Tier.
He could walk into breakfast wearing his cloak and somehow convince the table Lala is a Traitor and they’d eat it up.

I sadly never got to see the original #MST3K The Movie on the big screen. Only caught it on VHS afterwards so it WOULD be a first in theater for me!
I rented it from my local video store. Too early even for a Blockbuster.

The best part of this? Episode 1 is getting Fathom Event’d! 🙌🏻🙌🏻
The thought of seeing Mike with the robots and Mads on the big screen makes me obscenely happy.

Sometimes self-care involves a last minute overnight trip to #Universal, riding #Velocicoaster 3 times in a row, and making it back to the hotel just in time for the #Survivor South Pacific finale rerun.
Never be afraid to take a mental health break when you can sneak it. It was much needed. 😬

Video games are special to each of us for different reasons.
Some of us were lonely, isolated, and had trouble making friends as kids. We were "different".
Video games gave us a feeling that we almost never got to have—A feeling of control.
And we finally got to feel what it was like to 𝘸𝘪𝘯.

if you played sonic the hedgehog and put down the controller, sonic would look at you and tap his foot impatiently. this was proof that sega genesis cartridges had souls. the decision was made to make the storage cases a lot larger than the cartridges so they would have room to move around in there

This is Jerry Lawson. He invented the video game cartridge for the Fairchild Channel F system. Because of his invention, many consoles had cartridges and CD formats and would become the norm.
The Atari 2600, NES, Genesis, and many consoles wouldn't exist without him.
Happy Black History Month.
