Got some ideas for ya, Joe
Hours after taking the oath of office, President Joseph Robinette Biden Jr. signed about a dozen executive orders rescinding some of his predecessor’s bullshit and charting a course toward a more inclusive, climate conscious future. It’s an excellent start. As the world’s foremost expert on everything, however, I’ve got some more things he could doContinue reading “Got some ideas for ya, Joe”
On 2020
So 2020 sucked, right? That’s the prevailing wisdom. I don’t think that’s quite right. Think back to January and February. How was life back then? What did you expect out of the next twelve months? Chances are that was a better time for you, and that if your outlook wasn’t super rosy you probably hadContinue reading “On 2020”
On the second season finale of The Mandalorian
Spoilers ahead. Thinking back on this most recent season of the only reason anyone subscribes to Disney+, it’s clear that the final scene we got was really the only way for this season to end. I think I’d dismissed it as a possibility simply because I didn’t think Disney had the balls to do it.Continue reading “On the second season finale of The Mandalorian”
Cleveland Baseball Team
Cleveland’s MLB franchise announced last week that it’s going to drop its longstanding Indians nickname. The team had previously moved away from its ghastly logo, which made this move feel like only a matter of time. Bravo, I say. “But it’s only a name!” I’m sure others are saying. And that’s exactly why it shouldContinue reading “Cleveland Baseball Team”
So. Much. Star Wars.
During an investor event on Thursday, Disney announced approximately 18,000,000 new movies and TV shows set in the galaxy far, far away. There are a zillion articles on the internet detailing it all, so I’m going to skip all that and go straight to a hot take. It’s about fucking time. When I look backContinue reading “So. Much. Star Wars.”
On The Mandalorian
The first fourteen episodes of The Mandalorian have left viewers with a ton of questions. Foremost in this fan’s mind is this: how in the hell did it take us almost 40 years to get more good live action Star Wars? Every Star Wars movie since Return of the Jedi has been trash, or fine,Continue reading “On The Mandalorian”
Hello. My name is Scott and I’m addicted to subscription boxes
I’m here today because I have a problem. I need everything in my life delivered to my lazy ass on a regular schedule or I’m just not happy. It started with my subscription to Walden Local Meat. For a little more than five years I’ve gotten a frosty bag of grass fed meats dropped offContinue reading “Hello. My name is Scott and I’m addicted to subscription boxes”
Beyond Light’s campaign is the worst in-game Destiny narrative yet
Hoo boy. I’ve been a fan of Destiny since the launch of the first game almost ten years ago. The movement, shooting, and gear grind all combine to make an experience that’s very fun. The lore behind the whole story is fascinating, surprising, and extraordinarily well thought out. It’s a good experience that’s worth theContinue reading “Beyond Light’s campaign is the worst in-game Destiny narrative yet”
On the election and its aftermath
First off, thank Christ Biden won. Never mind all the other obvious benefits; just having a president who doesn’t slither all over a podium like Jabba the Hutt licking Princess Leia is going to do so much to improve the nation’s digestive health. For me, the initial call of Biden’s victory was slightly anticlimactic. MaybeContinue reading “On the election and its aftermath”
Scott’s election night survival guide
Grab your favorite booze. Trust me: you’re gonna want a little of the ol’ brain lube for this one. Election night’s going in deep and raw and hard. Don’t say I didn’t warn you. Me? I realized I haven’t had a Manhattan in a while, so I’m switching to cocktails for the night. Make sureContinue reading “Scott’s election night survival guide”
