Really love the script for Last Crusade. Great read here.
Nine years ago Mike Fitzgerald wrote up an extraordinarily fascinating breakdown of the differences between the Tom Stoppard shooting script and the original Jeffrey Boam draft of Indiana Jones and The Last Crusade.

Beautiful weekend here in the PNW where the first crisp cold air and turning leaves of autumn overlap with the last clear skies and long low sunsets of summer.

I was today years old when I learned Quake and Daikatana came out of the id developers' D&D shit
![The Fight for Justice (1990-91)
In the early 1990s, the staff at id Software had a private Dungeons & Dragons game, which would go on to inspire a number of elements in their titles over the following years. With John Carmack as DM, the campaign featured a group of adventurers named the Silver Shadow Band. The group were named for the silver dragon on which they flew, and each represented one of the core stats of the game. Among them was a powerful character named Quake, representing strength, who fought with a magic hammer capable of destroying buildings. Quake was accompanied by a floating magic artefact named the Hellgate Cube which attacked his foes with lightning bolts.[26] John Romero described fighting alongside Quake as the most fun they had playing D&D. The Silver Shadow Band did "contract work for Justice, an even more powerful group". The original campaign concluded in early 1992, after Romero's character made a deal with a demon, exchanging a book called the Demonomicron for a magic sword called the Daikatana, which resulted in a demonic invasion that wiped out the Material Plane.[27]
A preview included with id Software's first release, 1990's Commander Keen, advertised a game entitled The Fight for Justice as a follow-up to the Commander Keen trilogy. It would feature a character named Quake, "the strongest, most dangerous person on the continent", armed with thunderbolts and a "Ring of Regeneration". Conceived as a VGA full-color side-scrolling role-playing video game, The Fight for Justice was never released. The team briefly explored making the project in 1991 but abandoned the idea as the technology for it simply did not exist at the time. The project was only in development for about two weeks.[26]](https://cdn.bsky.app/img/feed_thumbnail/plain/did:plc:pwm4rmtcs4su7ybv5rxtmrsg/bafkreiffcjusxm25y2h5ge5tfeiuuk2znm33anlx7faq63435mfn526lpi@jpeg)

SilverStone is back with a beige PC case that looks just like your crappy old 486
FLP02 has a throwback facade but can fit a thoroughly modern PC inside.

For World Goth Day, I made a new black t-shirt that lets you know that I am goth at heart, but I'm also busy, and tired, and this is the most effort you can realistically expect me to put into it.
Just $13 today along with all my other casual-goth tees: robsheridan.threadless.com/collections/...

Hey. Don't worry. You just woke up from a dream.
It's 2002 again and you've got the rest of the night to play anything you want.
Or just sit back and listen a while.
Everything is gonna be okay.

OK, this is wild.
In September 2023, geophysicists across the world started monitoring a very odd signal coming from the ground under them.
It was picked up in the Arctic. And Antarctica. It was detected everywhere, every 90 seconds, as regular as a metronome, for *nine days*.
What the HELL?

If you're in NYC this coming week & haven't yet seen it, I'd recommend Caspar David Friedrich at the Met, which closes May 11. Not sure the next time this wide a variety of works by the famed German Romantic painter will be assembled again. My fave in the show is this snow-covered winter landscape
