I'd forgotten I'd made threads as soon as I got here. It wasn't very practical, but I couldn't help myself. 😅

Until I have a system for grouping them on my profile, like on the other network, I'll gather them here. 🖖

1/ George Lucas and the three-second rule:
Tales from the Borderlands (Telltale) started 11 years ago today 🥰

I will never stop recommending this narrative game. It doesn't matter if you've never played Borderlands. It's an excellent sci-fi comedy.

I'm glad, and honestly surprised, that 300 people have already read this article about a recent indie sci-fi turn-based game, which is obviously not very well known. Bsky is magic.

It's always a risky bet to devote time to a non-franchise topic, but I'm happy with the result.

I just received a magnificent sci-fi collector's item. I'll review it soon, but the product is still in pre-order.

New article on my Patreon: we examine the creation of spaceships for the recent game Command Deck, which brings to life the covers of 1960s and 1970s sci-fi novels illustrated by fantastic artists like Boris Vallejo or John Berkey. @commanddeck.bsky.social

It's crazy that I had never heard of this massacre before watching the show Watchmen (2019). I don't know how I could have missed such a tragedy.

RIP Viola Ford Fletcher.

I started reading The Mask of Fear, and it's cool to reconnect with Andor's tone (even 15 years before).

Alexander Freed clearly did the same research as the show's writers, because the events recounted in this book, released in February, are very reminiscent of things that happened this year. 👌

Ewoks: The Battle for Endor was also one of those typical, completely traumatic children's films of the 1980s, right from the very first scene. 😁

I'm slowly making my way through Ambrosia Sky—one (short) mission every two or three days—and it's a real delight.

A heavy atmosphere in keeping with the very nice art direction, fun gameplay, light puzzles, cool sci-fi lore, and a moving story. In space. ☝️

Isaac Asimov (Southwest Airlines Magazine, 1979): "We've been polluting and using up our energy, but I think more and more we are aware of the dangers of this. And perhaps, we will do something about it. To my way of thinking, the biggest obstacle to solving the problems we have, and we have..."

I didn't know Donald Glover (Lando Calrissian) had so many health problems. 😱

“They say everybody has two lives and the second life starts when you realize you have one. You got one life, guys. (...) You should be living your life how you want. If we have to do this again, it can only get better.”
Donald Glover Reveals He Canceled Last Tour Due to Stroke, Doctors Finding Hole in His Heart
