How nice that it gives you such...er...control.

Nolan’s stunned reaction was something else.

She is, and I love her dearly (I mean, for God’s sake, I watch Critical Role religiously. I have listened to A LOT of Laura Bailey). But there are times I find myself side-eyeing games and thinking they’ve got a bit of a pipeline problem. I can understand wanting to hire people that they know are just that good for…

They’re the MTV Movie & TV Awards, let’s not kid ourselves.

Oh, definitely.

Halloween this year was conveniently A: right before BlizzCon and B: on a Thursday night, which meant we got treated to DM McCree on Critical Role, too. Everybody dressed up as a character they’d voiced, so it was quite the rogues’ gallery...

They are. This whole cast is delightful, really, and I love that so many of them hang out like this.

What I CAN blame the PS4 for is the passive-aggressive messages upon startup after a power outage about how I didn’t shut down the console properly. BLAME THE WIND FIRST, grumble grumble (and Puget Sound Energy for not putting our lines underground, and all those pesky TREES for doing TREE THINGS, and...)

Oh, I got a VR headset, and a healthy collection of games for it. On my PS4. If it turns out that Valve is expecting me to buy their hardware for it, too, then the words “fuck” and “no” will apply, in that order.

A few of the newer tracks on Expert have had me shouting MY ARMS ARE NOT THAT LONG at the game.

Thought one: this is awesome.

I forgot I had captions turned on on YouTube until the first words I saw were “[XBOX SOUND].” Can’t help but wonder what that communicates to someone who’s never actually heard it.

I hear Disney lawyers sharpening their pencils.

Today’s “read until the first typo” game got me this far: “two of director Bong Joon Ho’s most successful film”

I think we can call agree it wasn’t Kai Leng. *shudders*

There WASN’T anybody by that name.

Since we’re speaking of languages and I’m feeling like a pedant: it’s “cachet.”

Every time these lists come out, I find myself waiting for the first Something of Blah and Blee.

I’m still so very very glad that when I saw Philip Pullman on tour for the launch of The Amber Spyglass, the reading was in a church.
