I finished the main story of Super Mario Odyssey last night and messed around a little in the post-game. It’s a fine game, but a distant fourth on my GOTY 2017 list.

I love the orange and black candies, and Bob from Twin Peaks scares the hell out of me. Also, Dale Murphy!!

Seeing Grant Lee Phillips tonight as the last in my utterly ridiculous concert-filled October.

Still doesn’t include the Season Pass.

It turns out the WWI memorabilia is counterfeit because no one referred to it as ‘World War I” at the time. Who’d have expected that it’d be the first in a franchise?

Such a crazy week for new records.

“Happy Wednesday or whatever” is definitely going up on the whiteboard outside my office as today’s message.

I have not gotten my code for Stick of Truth yet. Preordered on PS4 through Best Buy. I expect that it’ll arrive on launch day.

My concert hell month has begun in earnest. Why did I do this to myself?

Danganronpa V3: Killing Harmony and Cuphead for me this week. Cuphead will be the first XBONE game I’ve bought since Sunset Overdrive!

The soundtrack to Over the Garden Wall, previously only available on LP, was released digitally today on Bandcamp, iTunes, Amazon, etc.

Clog Wench was fucking gold.

Yes I do.

Valerian was fine. There was some really great stuff in it. There was some not-great stuff in it.

It occurs to to me that I hit the unpopular movie Triple Crown this year with Ghost in the Shell, Valerian, and mother! Total between the three I shared theater space with less than 10 other people.

Imagine you’ve just sat down for a quiet family meal and then ‘Children of Men’ literally happens in your house.

She wah be an architec howbow dah?

What are you? Some kind of grammar-Antifa?

I have to go to bat for Severed. I played it this summer on Vita and it’s amazing. If you subscribe to PS+ it’s probably already in your library. If not, it looks great on Switch.

I just played Muramasa on the Vita for the first time this summer. It’s sooooo good. I’d play it again on PS4 if they re-released it with the DLC included.
