Star Trek Into Darkness (2013)
Watched by Branson Reese 28 Apr 2022

Abrams isn't a man so much as he's an avatar of cultural entropy. If you make something popular enough eventually you will die or sell it off and and a person in thick rimmed glasses whose main artistic vision is that he loves to have meetings will take it and sandblast it until it's nothing. I hate to see this happen here but maybe it's good that this happened. Maybe every franchise should collapse into a version of itself that makes shareholders nod and shake each others' hands. We should learn to speak in a language that rich people who don't dream can't comprehend.

D&D alternative Nimble returns to Kickstarter with a big expansion Designer Evan Diaz talks about respecting everyone's time and making memories

I'm trying to give indie TTRPGs some love on Polygon but it's tough because they don't do the sort of traffic as D&D stories. But one of the best part of my job is talking to game developers about their passion for the hobby. Here's a piece on Nimble: www.polygon.com/nimble-dunge...

UK ban on Palestine Action unlawful, high court judges rule Protest group’s co-founder wins legal challenge against decision to proscribe it under anti-terrorism laws

Outstanding. A triumph for liberty and against unrestrained state power. The government should be ashamed of having to be forced into this position.

Like, how fucking cool is it that you can make content that you are pretty sure will lose money though? That's just testament to either how far you have come and how great what you have built is, or how shit capitalism is for creative people without that security. Or both. Both? Both.

www.smbc-comics.com/comic/socrates @smbccomics.bsky.social nails it. I would like to see @theabigailthorn.bsky.social give a take not on what philosophers would think of modern society, but on what effect modern society would have on the works of the philosophers. Was Kant red-, or black-pilled?

@bonniepatterson.bsky.social probably super cheeky of me to do this, but as you're the narrative designer for a game I would love a chance to audition to voice on it. I can send reels if you're open to it?

The neuroscience of Romeo and Juliet: an fMRI study of acting The current study represents a first attempt at examining the neural basis of dramatic acting. While all people play multiple roles in daily lifeβ€”for example, β€˜spouse' or β€˜employee'β€”these roles are all facets of the β€˜self' and thus of the ...

pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC... interesting article. I'm not a neuro sci guy, I'm a climate sci guy but I am an actor of a sort. Really interesting that from a brain-activity perspective acting appears to relate more to turning off the self, and less to adding traits to the self.

Twiglet Imperium

Popular marmite-flavoured snacks look to take over the galaxy. In keeping with the theme of slightly diminishing the original, the game only takes 5 hours to play.

Scionish

The gods are real, they had children and divorces, and they remarried. You play the step-kids of these divine parents-by-marriage. Take advantage of your birth-parent's new divine partners to guilt your way into some decent nepotism.

We can comprehend it. We just don't understand why you call a perfectly good scone a biscuit. That said, the sausage gravy is a good addition. All in all, good pile of carbs and grease: better than our beans on toast, worse than our full English breakfast. Solid effort.

That's not the true meaning of Christmas! The true meaning of Christmas is to remind yourself why your chosen family matters more than your assigned one!

It's her take on magic as coming from inconsistencies that is the most clever take. Whether that's from inconsistencies in translation (babel) or logic (katabasis), I think it's a very unique and believable magical system she is building. Magic-as-loophole is fantastic.

I'm not happy with the second couplet of the first stanza there, it was a deliberate reference to "Dieu et mon droit", but I feel like it's clumsy. I'd discard the draft, but then the Wombles will come for me.

Underground, overground, Wombling free!
Be not afraid of the Wombles you see,
Burning all litterbugs in radiant light,
Their crusade of cleanliness for God and their right!

Your 4 year old doesn't know that you selfishly stole his vaccines and gave him a preventable illness that destroyed his immune system and led to years of suffering. But your 10 year old will google that shit. And they will never forgive you. And you deserve that hate plus more.

Success is preparation and opportunity.

You got the opportunity because of luck (and it is right to remember that), but you were in a position to take advantage because of the work you did to build your talent. Give yourself some credit. Or make yourself a cup of tea, if you don't like self-praise.
