Silent Hill 2 - I still think about this game regularly even 20+ years later.

Complaints I’ve heard: she’s smug, her writing is what you get when a truckload of freshman philosophy collides with a train hauling new age sci-fi woo, she’s not all that pretty, all of her projects involve her being a messianic cult figurehead, no one could stop a school shooting with interpretive dance.

I love how the internet turns into a swarm of deep investigative reporters instead of just not buying the cookies.

It’ll rebrand as GPT/O Media

I thought the same thing, but she actually apparently does use the stage name Sarah Squirm in some contexts, so ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

I love how ChatAVC decided just to stop writing this article midstream. Like “Yeah, I’m going back to plotting humanity’s demise, I can’t be bothered with this show anymore.”

What the battered deep fried fuck on a stick is the motivation to ruin a song like this?!

sorry, all must share my suffering

Also, the Will to Power song is Good, Actually (tm)

You missed what should have been number one.

Yeah, I’ve read other things since that time, and it seems like Stipe is or was kind of excessively bitter about that tune for some reason.

Hard to quibble with this list. It’s missing one of my favorite covers, so I’ll drop that here:

I haven’t gotten to watch yet, but thank you for warning me to be ready with the fast forward button! Adam Levine, gross.

I admit bias for one of my top-5 all time albums, but Listen Without Prejudice is better than Older and waaaaaaaaaay better than Faith.

Season one was amazing, season two was also great. Season 3 was meh, but not awful.

Let Me In actually followed the book a little more closely than the original film, which I appreciated as a fan of the book. But Let the Right One In is a much tighter movie. I think they both have their merits for those different reasons.

Yeah, I think you’re right. I actually have the Charlie Brown Christmas special on DVD from a million years ago & we still watch that as a group, but who knows how long the equipment to do that will exist. I kinda feel like Charlie Brown railing against the commercialization of the holidays!

Atari is suddenly acting like a company that has some kind of coherent plan centered around retro gaming, which is nice to see as an old fella who grew up on the 2600. I think their purchase of AtariAge is the most interesting development. If they do right by the homebrew community and expand the ecosystem around…

National treasures like this disappearing behind cash grab paywalls is among the worst things about our streaming reality now.

I’m into it in theory given that DRM and Maika are involved. At least it’s not a Renny Harlin project!
