Brother, uncle, whatever, time is a flat circle. The connection has been made. The spiral is also in both seasons. Plus, the Tuttle Corp behind the lab is the same as the baddies from season 1. Bring it! I’m in!

Yo, the biggest reveal of the episode is that Travis’ last name is Cohle!, As in Rust Cohle’s father!!! You think we might get to see Rust again?

My wife was so pissed that Barbie actually apologized to Ken at the end. That undermined the entire movie in her opinion. I barely noticed. Go figure.

Plus, you’re more than likely to see someone walking around in their underwear during 150 hours of real life, if you’re lucky, or unlucky.

It’s just not very fun. Every time I try to get back into it I take a break to play something else. Lies of P, Cocoon, Alan Wake 2, even Jusant, and when I’m done with those games, all very fun and/or chill in their own ways, I always forget that I was playing Starfield at all. Then I’ll try to get back into it, and…

Well, in your case, I’d say Fielder’s mission is accomplished.

Yeah I just finished my 4th run through to get all achievements, and despite this being my GOTY, I don’t see myself returning to Krat just to check out the changes. But for everyone who is still playing and enjoying this game, I hope their experience is improved!

I’d argue that Lies of P’s soundtrack is superior to Starfield.

I was highly disappointed to learn the Lies of P did not get nominated for game of the year. Easily my GOTY, so much that I can’t bring myself to go back to Starfield, or even AC6 for that matter. 

Does Scavengers Reign not count as anime? That show is blowing me away with its depiction of an alien planet teeming with life, and I’m no diehard anime fan.

I’ve had some fun watching music reaction videos, mostly like a hiphop guy reacting to live performances by Frank Zappa, King Crimson, Pink Floyd, or Phish, and getting a kick out of watching their heads explode.

I’d hate to suggest the prequel route, but I’d like to know when and how we got to Sera, and what it was like to establish humanity there. Or did I just skip all the backstory cutscenes?

Hmmm, Beau and Nope were two of my favorite films from last year...

‘Vanity Fair’ noting, maybe?

Beau was all emotional depth, what are you talking about???

There is absolutely nothing ‘Garden State’ about Beau.

When Joaquin went on the Smartless podcast, I got the feeling that he didn’t exactly enjoy making Beau with Aster, so I’m pleasantly surprised to hear that he’ll be in Aster’s next project, whatever that may be.

It’s definitely ‘all of the above,’ and that’s ok. I enjoyed it for being a unique and singular vision, something that I’ll never see the likes of anywhere else, ever again, and for taking me out of my comfort zone and making me think, for days, about what it all meant, and for encouraging as many friends to go see it…

It’s been killing me too. I’ve gotten better at the crossword than I thought I would, and Wordle is more of a habit than a challenge these days. But yeah, Connections gets me about half the time. Gotta slow it down and think a little harder.

Hey now, I totally forgot his part in Homeland, but that show had one hell of a finish. One of the most complete and satisfactory endings in recent memory.
