I think we need to celebrate the death of Sora a bit more. This is a technology that, just MONTHS AGO, we were being told was going to literally destroy Hollywood and Disney was going to give them a BILLION DOLLARS and NONE OF THAT EVEN REMOTELY HAPPENED

ICE told nurses this Minneapolis man “purposefully ran headfirst into a brick wall.” What actually happened is that they pulled him from a car, beat him so viciously with a steel baton that he had 8 skull fractures, 5 life-threatening brain hemorrhages, and couldn’t remember he had a daughter.

Now you too can play a slowed down version of a game from 20 years ago with no actual level design or enemies and all it costs is a complete collapse of the world economy, biosphere, education system, and multiple entire creative industries.

Wake up. Make breakfast. Do email. Watch a murder. Go to a party for a 5 year old. Laugh with my daughter. See a different angle of that murder. Hear govt officials slander the victim. Play Barbies with my kid. Feed her dinner. Tear up at that victim reading last honors to a vet. Put kid to bed. USA

No Other Choice was good! I went in outraged that it was snubbed from the #Oscars but maybe I get it. The story didn't feel particularly novel or the payoff especially interesting. Still kind of a shame Park Chan Wook hasn't gotten any recognition from The Academy.

After a rough few weeks, yesterday my wife backed into a car in the parking lot. We were pretty nervous about whatever hit that might be to my mom's car insurance. She left a note. A couple of hours later that same car got rear ended, so we are totally off the hook. What are the odds??
