I miss those halcyon days when all I knew about ESR was that he maintained the Jargon File

Secret Wars 2 isn't just about Spider-Man teaching the Beyonder how to poop.

It's also about the Beyonder getting time bombs shoved down his pants and giving the New Mutants serious PTSD.

To avoid confusion, there is no Season 2, I just think it would be fun to hear Al do 12 episodes about the Beyonder learning to poop and such. It would probably be less harmful to his psyche than talking about Fight-bolts.

The main reason I pay more attention to that crap than I really would like is because I absolutely need to recognize the on-ramps in case my kid gets on one

I initially thought this was about the clone of Magneto and was very confused

Lorelei and the Laser Eyes is one of the best puzzle/mystery games I've played. Definitely fits the theme of that list.

Post a screenshot of your first 5 Steam purchases and let Bluesky judge you

Open the Steam client, click your name in the top right -> account details -> View purchase history and scroll down

Technically my first Steam purchase was The Orange Box, but I bought that at a brick and mortar

"AI" is IT from A Wrinkle in Time.
"Just give in," the AI pushers say. "We can all be together in this. You don't have to think."

Time to hold onto your inner Meg, friends.

Everybody realized that recovered memories are bullshit, so instead we'll have an AI make up trauma so we can accuse their parents of abuse

And after that you can get a good leg workout by asking a Boston Dynamics dog-bot to run 20 miles for you

A panel from a Calvin and Hobbes comic.  Calvin's mom, eating dinner, says "Life could be worse, Calvin."  Calvin, clearly upset, his mouth huge says "Life could be a lot BETTER too!"

happy birthday to bill watterson who gave me the gift of encapsulating my entire ethical approach in one comic panel.

That said, my 7 year old caught some episodes while we were on vacation and has spent the past week devouring the entire series.
