This is shameful discriminatory and misogynistic reporting. People aren’t choosing disability to be “cool”. Young women don’t have to “prove” to you that they’re sick. Disability rates are skyrocketing because we’ve left a disabling virus rip through the population for over 6 years.

Back home from seeing Coyote vs ACME again (but this time my father came along). I learned about these last few months we have to transfer our 3DS-era Pokémon to Bank and then to Home, so I'm doing that now. I have X, Sun and Ultra Sun Pokémon to move around. It's gonna be a lot.
Never thought a game would be made where the entire point would be to kill millions of rapidly-multiplying bunnies. And yet, I tolerate that more than some of the other jokes in this game!

That thread was such a delight to read, I must've gone back to it three times in two days. The movie will still be in theaters in my area tomorrow, I already went last Saturday, and I am planning to go again tomorrow with my father, a huge fan of the Looney Tunes. I know he'll love it.
Wile E. Coyote is doing a reddit AMA right now for Coyote vs ACME and strictly answering through signs, and it's genius.
Maybe it's the exhaustion from my busy yesterday but I so feel like doing nothing tonight... My review for tomorrow is ready and I should start playing the next game, but it's like interest (or will) isn't quite there. On the plus side, I'm already down to just 11 Quick Review games to test!
At the entracte and I have tinnitus. They are friggin' amazing though.
At the Bell Center tonight to attend a Rush concert! As a fan of Dream Theater since 2013, I knew I wasn't gonna pass up a chance to see one of their biggest inspirations! Rush are legendary after all.

I went to see Coyote vs. ACME on Saturday night. It's excellent, I loved it. Go see it, as soon as possible. And I do mean it; as it might not stay in theaters for very long...

Unfortunately I don't have 10. Have this list of 7 though! Dream Theater Weird Al Yankovic QW4RTZ Lisa LeBlanc Les Trois Accords Grand Corps Malade I've Made Too Much Pasta And in less than a week, I'll be seeing Rush, so... make that a potential 8. Wow, my music interests reach wide 'n weird.

Probably the toughest part of writing lately has been trying to remember very specific words and failing to recall them. Weird how often TVTropes has helped me with that, too; the latest one I was racking my brain trying to remember was "Rube Goldberg device".
“Consumerism as activism” can be a questionable tactic… but it’s worth noting: if you all see COYOTE VS ACME this weekend and make it a giant hit… you will specifically humiliate David Zaslov and make him miserable… while also seeing an entertaining and heartfelt movie. The definition of win/win.

Journalists need to stop describing these incidents in terms implying software has agency and intent. It does not. The people who created a faulty and dangerous product are the ones responsible for whatever happens, and must be held to account, with punitive financial penalties for damage done.
Sharp rise in incidents of AI escaping users’ control, research finds
I don't remember the exact formulation but I remember something along this line being used on streaming or on TV to keep the secret about the film's real plot: "An Asian laundromat owner is struggling to pay her taxes."
Make your favorite film sound as boring as possible without giving away the title: A chief technology officer is worried about keeping his spreadsheets private.
In Distrust, you play a rescue team stranded on the Arctic base they were coming to help. Something happened here. Throughout the adventure, you'll be battling hypothermia, hunger, exhaustion, illnesses, and monsters that appear when a character is asleep. No, I didn't stutter. Good luck surviving!

....How did I go up nearly two million views on the blog this year alone???
I'm gonna publish another Quick Review tomorrow, and then I'll wait for next Friday before publishing the next. This coming week is going to be extremely busy for me, and I don't think I'll be able to keep up the two-reviews-a-week speed for that one.
Somebody's been commenting on my Luigi's Mansion: Dark Moon articles with comments about keeping up with the news. Okay. Their latest comment has a link to a website that goes by Hero Luigi and highliting the name "Steve Bannon". ...Lemme guess, that's a roundabout way to be about Luigi Mangione?
My review is genuine; would be a great game if the game wasn't trying to pick your pocket every chance it gets. But also, for the first time in forever, I cannot spend on fun stuff, so this game's naked (and incessant) attempts at making me reach for the wallet induce annoyance bording on anger.
There's no shortage of freemium games out there. Disney Speedstorm offers competitive multiplayer, fun remixes of famous songs, 130+ racers across many properties... It's a fun concept. One which will eventually goad you into pulling out the credit card if you want to make any progress fast.

Little respite from yesterday's rough patch, today I found two shinies while playing PL:A. Zubat and Geodude. Gonna evolve those, I guess.
I'll explain the vaguepost even though no one asked. Today alone: -I learned that a close friend's mother had passed away; -One of our two chickens was mortally wounded, and we learned a neighborhood dog did it. Second time it happens in one week. -*points to trade deals tab and the Trump bullshit*
I'm so fucking exhausted.
Music: Angine de Poitrine, Rush, Harmonium, Mes Aïeux (of course I'm gonna recommend mostly French Canadian stuff!) Movies: You ought to watch all of the pre-Hollywood Denis Villeneuve films. Hell, the same goes for every one of our directors that's made the leap. Phenomenal artistry.
Also - please join me if you will in flooding Bluesky with Canadian culture. Music, art, film, TV. Let’s show the vibrancy of this place I’m proud to call home.
Beginning the year's set of Quick Reviews with Cat Quest, an adorable action RPG! Brace yourself, though; if you hate puns, the sheer volume of cat puns in this one will make you fur-ious!
