We must abolish timezones and all live in the golden light of Universal Time

I watched the first episode of Batman: Caped Crusader's second season today. It's really good. I like how they're reimagining some characters. I've seen some complaints about the new Edward Nygma, but man, the Riddler is kind of dumb. I liked the introduction of the Joker a lot.

I think the conclusion I've come to is that Mass Effect 3 is actually quite bad. The writing is really grating. The combat is annoying. The classes have all been changed in irritating ways. The ending sucks. It just feels annoying to play, for a variety of reasons. It really lacks the spark of 2.

I think I was too harsh on Final Fantasy 16 initially, but man, the cutscenes are so fucking long and there's so many of them. It's easy to go like an hour without being able to save.

There is a public figure who I can't stand. I can't watch anything they're in, I hate the sound of their voice, and their entire vibe ruins my day. They are, by all accounts, beloved and a great person. I'm ok being alone in my haterism.

I watched the Neuromancer trailer and I think it looks good, but it exists in such a weird place. It's one of the original cyberpunk works, so it's going to feel weirdly dated in some ways. It's such an inspiration for things, it can't not feel old, even if it looks new.
