  • Current game pet peeve - the delay after each enemy acts in combat in Baldur’s Gate 3. I absolutely love this game, but big combats take longer than they should because after each enemy acts, there seems to be a 5-10 second delay before moving on to the next.

    Favorite game pet peeve - The overall poor performance/memory management in HBS’s Battletech game. Again, love the game, have put nearly 2000 hours into it over the years, but damn the performance can just be painful sometimes.







  • As a teenager, I worked in a local single-screen movie theater in an affluent town and had occasion to meet John Delancy (Q from Star Trek Next Gen) who was very friendly, and Jason Robards, who was pleasant enough but kept to himself. I’ve met a few famous people at conventions, but the best was Adrienne Barbeau, who I met at a horror convention in Worcester, MA years ago. It was early and there weren’t a lot of people around yet, so we went over to say hello. We spent about half an hour just talking, commiserating over the then-very-recent cancellation of Carnivale on HBO. She was an absolutely lovely person in every way.



  • Ok, I appreciate what Leslie Jones is saying, and I wholeheartedly support SAG-AFTRA and WGA in their efforts to secure their rights and better treatment for all their members. But who the fuck is the asshole on the left of this video? Why the fuck are we posting these stupid “reaction” videos instead of the original video. There’s a place for youtube reactors - I love reaction videos. But these aren’t reactors and these videos aren’t reactions. They’re just assholes stealing someone else’s content and putting their own wrapper around it for views. Which is kind of ironic on post about people being exploited and their work and likenesses stolen…

    Please stop feeding these people.
