Bon Iver is an art installation of slowly becoming more and more pretentious and seeing how long it takes the world to catch on. It’s like Father John Misty except over more than thirty seconds.

But it’s a very enjoyable album.

There are two Levys on the show and they’re both excellent.

We’ve had solid turnout the last two months so Mario Kart 8 and the 8th is continuing on Sunday at 8PM Central.

I am an Angels fan and always have been, and for most of Mike Trout’s career I have listened to the chorus of boos as the Angels have only made the playoffs once in his time with the team, in no small part due to ownership interference followed by a dysfunctional front office. I have generally rolled my eyes at such…

Disingenuous. That’s the word. Never liked him and it was always undefinable beyond “not ever funny.” I’m not happy to be “right” or feel justified. It always sucks when another person is outed as an asshole. I’m glad Dykstra is healing and as an added bonus we can all forget Hardwick was ever anything but a…

And Neko Caaaaaase

I spent an embarrassingly long time thinking this was about Doom until I was like, “Wait a minute, his least favorite level is ‘Storming Koopa Bros. Fortess?’ Why would Doom- oh. Oh God.”

Release dates are the new E3, where I salivate over a great reception to a game I will play in 1-2 years. That God of War sure looks interesting!

Should you want to play Mario Kart 8 Deluxe, friends, well, Mario Kart 8 on the 8th returns tonight, from 8PM Central to 9PM for an hour of Frantic item-driven power.

The second one’s willingness to grow up both the cast and the themes makes a big difference. The first one is great and about a wonderful friendship, but the second is about deeper themes of family and forgiveness. They’re less immediate than the rush of the first one, but no less powerful.

FINE BY ME!

Well I’m sorry. And you’re welcome.

Because Dean DeBlois is a great director.

That movie is so much EMOTIONS.

As far as third acts go it’s certainly better than many, many others.

But do they REBEL???

The Good Dinosaur felt like cheap manipulation both with the inevitable early event and the ending, and it felt even more cynically designed to hit both parents and their children with targeted emotional beats.

The only thing I didn’t like about that finale was using a song most of us clearly remember from “Friends.” I don’t want to think about another show while watching this one.

I liked her last album just fine with the exception of “Honolulu”, which felt like a person without children chastising a parent for bad behavior, true, but also being incredibly judgmental. If you don’t have kids you don’t know how well they can drive you crazy, and dedicating a whole song to possibly that mother’s…
