Exactly. Yet of course, there’s hardly such a thing as “we as a culture”. We as how many subcultures ?

It’s really no big deal. It’s a saturday cartoon-like adventure show. No main character dies in Mission Impossible or the A Team. Or Robin Hood movies. Or Star Wars, actually. Not all action stories require the actual possibility of the heroes dying in order to offer obstacles, thrills, entertainment. Millions of…

Even Luke’s face on the screen wasn’t a spoiler for Mark Hamill’s involvement.

or to be milked by Luke five minutes later.

Wato-san ? Hah. That’s wassup holmes level !

My guitar gently weeps.

Slight defensive stance at sherlock-reshaping. Checked, and looks like sherlock is a nickname. Awkwardness lifted. Enthusiastically hurling myself at that thing, which will be 1) the very next series I’ll watch, 2) my anticipatory favorite thing ever until further notice.

Lots of bad reviews. No positive prescriptions for cool games ?

I really, really loved the fact that this series was about a random mandalorian and not about the passive background character who died ridiculously propelled by his own rocket into a toothed sand pit.

Hah. That’s cute. And creepy.

Rimworld in 100% awesome.

Slow year but maybe Relic deserved a mention ? Its fatalist melancholy and efficient visual symbolism will haunt me for a little while.

Not sure what the coronavirus is supposed to have to do with it ?

Jebediah Kermans.

One odd thing I had to come to terms with during 2020 is that a lot of people that I didn’t really like are actually in fact quite okay.

Never believe in the concept of grownups. Pop culture mimicry has been largely documented in sociology, be it among mafia thugs mimicking gangster movies, or cops mimicking action heroes, in behavior, language, body attitude, etc. They’re children offered a career in play pretend. They’re conforming to an idea of how…
