Turns out I have stuff to write. It’s starting to cook. Who knows what I’ll do with it but it’s dark, weird shit and it’s starting to take on a life of its own.

Y'all need to buy @swordsjew.bsky.social new book, which I am referencing here cause I don't think you fully understand the depth and breadth of the evangelical right's depraved, evil agenda and stranglehold on the country. Talia lays it all out. It is *essential* reading for all Americans.

Shadow of the Erdtree is my favorite bit of expansion content since Blood & Wine. Like that, it condenses and refines the base game into its purest form, just banger after banger after banger of an experience.

That’s about half of Erdtree’s major stuff done by my estimation. This expansion is an absolute joy to just explore, even more than the original. It has something of the verticality, intricacy and spatial logic of an Arcane game, but at an immense scale.

I don’t want to generalize too much but the place I see the most hope right now is from those that have been fighting the hardest for the longest time. Extended doomerism can be a luxury not afforded to those who have the most to lose.

Returning to Elden Ring after so long has been really satisfying, the expansion is exactly what I wanted. Just put the Dancing Lion to bed, great boss and an excellent fight.

I feel like you could have a really dull, vaguely unpleasant evening while coked to the eyeballs here. Someone would put on their Maroon 5 live bootlegs. There would be overpriced vodka. People would keep talking about calling a car but none would ever arrive.

My hottest take is that transphobia has taken such a hold of the English because we’re small minded bullying assholes at heart and we love when media makes a target for us. It’s one of the reasons I left.

Cruise was too straight for me in retrospect, but he has such intense charisma that it in the moment I totally got it. It’s that Tom Cruise thing where I find him kind of repellant and then watch a Cruise film on a plane or wherever and suddenly I am on the Tom train.

He’s reasonably charismatic and extremely handsome, but I see your post, he doesn’t have that white hot thing that Lestat had. On the other hand, I cannot be mad at a hot guy named Sam.

Being irrationally mad about the season of Ray Donovan where Hank Azaria and his wife here swingers and characters were horrified that they had to sleep with his partner… played by Sherilynn Fenn, one of the most attractive people ever to act in anything. What a waste of talent that show was.

The thing that's telling and exasperating about the centrist "Biden must drop out" calls is that... this was their guy! They act like the left insisted on him! But Biden was the guy they were saying Democrats should instead rally around when it looked like we might pick Bernie!

My main takeaway before I bailed around Tale of the Body Thief was that Lestat was Anne Rice’s perfect boy and absolutely the protagonist of her reality. Teen goth me loved those books so much.
