photograph from the 80's of the wrestler Sting wearing a Gold's Gym shirt and sunglasses, leaning against a shelf in a bookstore and positively cheesing at an open copy of The Far Side Gallery 2, a collection of Far Side Cartoons.

what if i told you, through the power of forensic analysis, we are closer than ever to knowing the exact Far Side cartoon that is making Sting smile in this iconic photo. 🧵 👇

Byte magazine cover featuring a desktop with a screen showing a green landscape, next to a window showing the real-life version, which is ugly, industrialized, and smoky.

The original Star Trek crew are at a holographic museum of "ancient technology," watching a guy scratch his head while reading a retro computer manual.

A painting, a window, and a desktop computer are all lined up to complete the same view, a scene of a blue mountain range.

RIP Robert Tinney (November 22, 1947 – February 1, 2026), the artist famous for his playful covers for Byte magazine, a hobbist magazine that ushered in the microcomputing age from the mid-70s through the 90s. I'm honored to have included his work in my own art collection.

With Stormbringer in hand, Elric wheels in surprise as mist swirls and gives way to an enormous skeletal figure. The tip of a trident points down at the albino warrior, who wears a yellow tunic over scaled armor and a brilliant red cloak that captures his turning motion. The lich king wears a gold helm with horns curling back. The purple fabric covering it is in tatters, revealing a segmented gold shoulder belt and other jewelry. Its desiccated skin is shriveled on bone, making it clear the figure is undead. Points of red light shine in the shadowed orbitals of its skull. The pale green cloud billowing around the villain is populated by horrific visages of demons.

This is an evil place.

If you have never played Morrowind before but like the more recent Elder Scrolls games, we'd like for you to sincerely give it a try and tell us what you think about it.

The game is half off on GOG right now at $7.50, and available as part of Game Pass.

A black and white illustration of a mall complete with smokers in futuristic clothing and storefronts with names including "The Ammo Dump," "Desktop Engineering," and "Cyborg Sally."

Mike Jackson’s 1991 illustration of a mallplex for the Night City Guide sourcebook for the Cyberpunk 2020 role-playing game depicts a showing of Dune at the movie theater.

That’s only a year off from when (the most recent) 'Dune' actually debuted in 2021!

It would be so beautiful if I didn't have to have 3 different apps on my phone related to work and it would be even better if the one used for paystubs wouldn't forget my login every time I need to check it.

Jack sharing your last name raises so many questions. Is he a brother? Cousin? Clone? Biological anomaly spewed out from a giant glowing green sphere? Much to think about.. 🤔
