Exactly. The car looks like (and has a logo of) a giant fucking snail. I love it.

May we all age as gracefully and Sarah Natochenny, I feel like she has a real Paul Rudd thing going on since I have similar problems placing interviews I have seen chronologically.

You’re the only person talking sense. My fellow whites have a ridiculous habit of 1) treating brown folks as fungible and 2) a bizarre streak of school yard “can’t get mad”ism. 

Same, we got the S-Cargo pretty much exclusively to take to car shows because my kid is super obsessed with cars, but neither my spouse nor I were particularly car people, so we decided to make everyone happy and get something that reflects out personalities while also giving us a fun reason to participate. 

There is such a wave of this style of JDM wonderfulness coming over thanks to the 25 year rule. I got a Nissan S-Cargo, a pretty exceptionally rare care, for almost nothing. Nothing beats the double takes that thing gets.

For sure, I was absolutely being reductive and flippant buuuuut that being said, I think traditionally it’s at least fair to say that NIN albums, especially early albums, were predominantly him with session musicians (I mean, that’s also a little flip to say since some of them are pretty legendary), but not an…

I mean, Trent Reznor is... all of NIN, not just the singer. And a multiple academy award winner too. Good for him for getting clean and having a generally wild ass career trajectory.

Played it for about an hour on PS5 last night, I feel for PC players but I hope that ya’ll can take comfort in the fact that struggling with graphics settings will at least not be the worst part of your experience with the game (I’m being snide but, uh, it is quite disappointing).

I’ve been to the parasitological museum in Tokyo and lemme tell ya, they’re a lot more fun to observe when you can’t read the placards and just pretend that they’re not endemic to humans.

He is absolutely an icon but to be clear, he was not publicly out when Fight Club was written, published, or adapted to film, and when he did come out it was because he thought he was going to be outed by Entertainment Weekly so he beat them to the punch. All of which is to say, there are lovely important people in…

Oof I dunno, if you’re gonna go for a Paul Rudish...ish art style, it’s kind of dissonant to have contemporary ‘luded up sounding video game Mickey instead of Chris Diamantopoulos’ off the wall energy. That whole series is kind of the only Mickey-related thing that has held my attention... uh... ever?

This is exactly as appealing as Matt Hazard was. Take from that what you will.

Ooo, I’m feeling real old and decrepit when the classics of the genre name checked in the article are what are, like, 2nd or 3rd wave immersive sims in my book.

Going on 10 years of having a vivid dream about getting one of the owls from Fez tattooed on my wrist... Maybe some day.

Hopefully it continues to work, my kid loves playing that demo. Guess I get to enshrine my PS5 next to my PT-bearing PS4 for all time once the next generation comes around.

This, weirdly, reminded me of bob’s game. Some edgy highminded nonsense used as a smokescreen to mystify and justify some bland deception. I spose it probably feels better than flatly accepting that you scuttled your own credibility and status.

However long it takes... The combo of Ito’s visuals and Colin Stetson’s music gives me goosebumps just from the trailers, seeing it all in motion is overwhelmingly exciting.

Yes, there is a dramatic blustering moment where he bounces someone. The whole bizarre hyper masculinity throughout is... It’s like whomever saw the original with the chairman’s self assuredness thought “what if this but everyone was an asshole.” I did a little research, it shot well before 9/11 (Late June 2001) but…

Totally. Probably because it plays like a Tim and Eric interpretation of a cooking show (well, without the Pitzmans mustard). Top to bottom there is not a single creative decision in it that is not delightfully misguided.

That was specifically being an asshole because of substance abuse problems so, my guess is the implication is that was not the context with this director.
