Forever charmed by Monkey Island II's iMUSE implementation, Lucasfilm/Arts' sound engine for smoothly and naturally transitioning from the musical beats and moods of one screen to another.

It took me many years to notice the start of "Faith" by George Michael is a church organ lament of "Freedom" by Wham!

The footage of the aftermath of the assassination of these brave journalists is too graphic to share here.

But the intention of Israel is clear - kill the few, last surviving reporters and secure a blackout for what comes next. The completion of the genocide.

Can't wait for us to finally encounter aliens and discover they are totally obsessed with something completely stupid. Like, they are searching the whole galaxy for red things, or they worship sausages. No matter how advanced and wise, there will be something dumb they can't stop doing

The jawdropping stunts of Tom Cruise in Mission Impossible, enhanced by AI!

Just noticed my Songs In The Key Of Life has Sides 1 and 2 on different records 🤔

Sunny Sunday and a visit to a nice exhibition of works by British illustrator Peter Till, Hornsey Library
