I’m so sorry

Two weeks until I get to watch It’s A Wonderful Life with my incredible wife again. What a treat!

Monikers Get your team to guess the name on the card! They’ve got 1 minute to guess as many as they can. In the first round, you can say anything. In the second, only one word. And in the third, charades! The ...

I like this version, personally www.cmyk.games/products/mon...

Monikers, also sold as Time’s Up, is a classic party game perfect for big groups that is super easy to teach and has never failed for me in any setting.

Typical RPG session in literally any game.

Watch Capra’s film Meet John Doe (another great Christmas movie!) to get an even clearer example of how insane Capra’s politics were.

It rocks that Frank Capra’s politics are so incoherent that everyone’s analysis of It’s A Wonderful Life as left wing or right wing is basically correct because Capra was an insane person.

Fucked up Cinematrix because I forgot that it counts the ”AVP” part of the title of AVP: Alien vs. Predator as a word. Fuck this fucked up world.

Made lentil soup from Marcella Hazan’s Essentials of Italian Cooking and it was deeeeeeelicious

Real fucking hoops, let’s go

80 Days screenshot. An exchange between M. Fogg and Passeportout: But tell me, Monsieur - what is the purpose of our journey? I have made a hefty wager, and I do not intend to lose!

80 Days screenshot. In Khartoum.

A text box from 80 Days: I was pickpocketed in New York; I seized the thief's hand still in my pocket. 'You tangled with the wrong Frenchman!" I exclaimed in triumph. The little thief looked up at me with thick-lashed eyes; I realised belatedly that the thief was a young girl, barely ten. I tightened my grip firmly, and she took the opportunity to curse in a thick Irish accent, and bite me. OPTIONS: I held on... I cursed volubly...

Today after a short break Quest Quest: The Adventure Game Podcast is back, and @decafjedi.com and I are talking about one of my favorite games - 80 Days (2014). Can you help Monsieur Fogg in his quest? Listen here or wherever you get podcasts: zencastr.com/z/HyjBUSQu

Trancers is a Christmas movie

Tweet from @doulbedoink Eli film opinion: While critics were quick to shower "From the branches of the papaya tree" with praise, the 20 minutes I watched were wretched. Once again, the Academy rewards mediocrity. Esther film opinion: You cannot miss "Demonisity 3D: Rise of the Demons"

This tweet is more incisive and true about actual cinephilia than any tiktok or post about so-called film snobs.

All that said, I don’t think I would play the games if I didn’t have someone to play them with. My brother is a great person to play games with, so that elevates the experience a lot.

I‘ve been playing a bit of Hunt: Showdown and Darktide with my brother and it’s been very fun. Hunt is super tense and Darktide is sillier than I thought it would be. The live service aspects of both games are not fun and I hate them but the core game loops are good.

Very excited to add Mortal Kombat 2 to this list next spring

Rotten Tomatoes can’t get anything right boxd.it/LISXS/detail

“This is the biggest thing to happen in this state since we stole it from the Indians!” made me laugh so hard the first time I heard it I had to pause the movie and catch my breath

Nick from It’s A Wonderful Life lookin pissed Off

One of my favorite memories of Jim Gabriel is both of us a few drinks deep at a barbecue just gushing about this film. It’s a great movie, one of the funniest of all time, and very special to me.

copilot my boss is sitting down for dinner at my home and my roast is ruined

That has my favorite film performance of all time. Shirley MacLaine is so perfect in that movie. The scene where she confronts the teacher!!!

1992 Demo Tape Shirt The design from the first demo tape in 1992.  Drawn by PNW comic artist Megan Kelso.  Denny wanted to call the label Nothing New Records.  Ean and Carl ran the label, so they picked Top Drawer instead...
