Denver?!

Wow. Still beats going down with the ship.

The whole premise is that whatever character you pick is king or queen and has to contend with various crises until the White Walkers come. Make the right sequences of choices and the game ends with the Night’s King killing you on the throne, turning you into a wight, and leaving you there forever, to reign over a…

There was a Cracked article a while back with a former fighter pilot who explained, in great detail, that most folks who eject experience permanent spinal injuries and thus can never fly the fast birds again. Still beats dying, though.

Thankfully, Joffrey’s corpse was incinerated when Cersei blew up the Great Sept of Baelor. Otherwise, Zombie Joff would definitely be a possibility.

It’s like Monopoly, but with less familicide.

I finally got around to seeing this last night, and holy moly did I love it.

He’s wearing trans pride colors! I love it!

He fed off her and some of the other LARPers, yes. Psychic energy tends to replenish faster than blood, and it’s implied it’s been at least a couple of days since the pilot.

I recognize that Quentin and Alice are most-definitely-likely never ever ever getting back together [Editor’s Note: They are totes getting back together. -Jill P.]

Still one of the best bits of cyberpunk lit I’ve read.

Oh, good point. I agree with you now.

Mostly because the third one was Pitch Black, But With Katee Sackhoff Instead Of Claudia Black.

In the IDW comics run (which you can pick up the entirety of here,) Starscream ran a Trump-like campaign to get elected leader of Cybertron, then proceeded to run the planet into the ground. That storyline is oddly prescient now.

How good was The Magicians last night? I’ve always rooted for Quentin and Alice, and it was really great to see them taking little steps back towards each other.

Tonight’s episode went into that a bit: After the possessing entity is expelled, there’s a brief window wherein it can be trapped. The Foremost’s people were trapping them in bottles, but that obviously won’t hold a god-killing Monster, so Quentin and Alice went in search of a spell that would reinforce a container.

If you ever get down to Baton Rouge, go to Curbside. It started as a food truck riding the wave of the truck trend, then eventually transitioned into a brick-and-mortar food palace. It has, in my extremely informed opinion, the best burgers in the parish. (It also has truffle fries, boozy milkshakes, and pickles made…

Big deal. If I want to watch a bunch of CGI horses and dragons flopping out of the sky, I can just play Skyrim.

*The title of an excellent new comic series, by the way.
