Old gamer: Traveller, Cosmic Encounter, 18xx, Advanced Squad Leader, Race For The Galaxy, Dominion, and many many others. Why a curry chef? That's a long story. (Finally, sorry but not a furry.)

"if you ask anyone who’s ever watched Slow Horses, or read the Mick Herron novels upon which the show is based, they’ll be as effusive as I’m being right now"

My sense is that Swalwell saying it out loud makes it less likely to come true.

Which is why we were saving them for the next shapechanger invasion, but if we don’t do SOMETHING with these cauldrons soon, we’ll have a hull breach on our hands

You’re in luck, Chief! The boys in the lab happen to have bubbling hot cauldrons of cheese curds and gravy at the ready. We’ll turn your problem into Canadian nachos in no time!

Not since videoconferencing became a daily thing, I think. Noise-cancelling headphones are a necessity for me.

I’m sorry, but velociraptor does NOT equal distanceraptor / timeraptor.

You forgot to cancel out the raptors.

Easily the stupidest thing I’ve read all day.

What lies beneath the bullshit is that the AI push is about concentrating wealth into the hands of five tech companies. People aren’t part of the equation.

Sports don’t have to be passive recreation. Not that it isn’t important. We all need it. But approach them correctly and they sharpen the mind. It’s like reading. A book about Napoleon doesn’t just teach you about France.

A bully believes that kindness is weakness. A fool believes that bullying is strength. A true warrior knows that a bully is weak, and that compassion and kindness are strengths they could never comprehend.

It would have been a better idea with a faster runner than Castellanos. Or if he'd bunted it over the left field fence.

There are days when it can feel like it’s already over and the bad guys won. That’s how they want us to feel. But it isn’t. Not by a long shot. Let’s not make it easy for them.

I always figured Alex and Geddy would perform again someday. Having them reform Rush with a new lineup and tour, though, is a happy surprise. It'll be different, it won't be the same, but they have never made a business of standing still. I look forward to hearing what they have to play.

Taylor Swift announces next album title: The Queen in Yellow. She told Variety: "A few years back I came across this amazing play and I was so inspired. It's been living in my head for years. I even dream of it, of the city in the play."
