Obama vs. Alan Keyes. Keyes was from out of state, so you can eliminate any established political base; both candidates were black, so you can factor out racism; and Keyes was plainly, obviously, completely crazy. Batshit crazy. Head-trauma crazy. But 27% of the population of Illinois voted for him. They put party identification, personal prejudice, whatever ahead of rational judgement. Hell, even like 5% of Democrats voted for him. That's crazy behaviour. I think you have to assume a 27% Crazification Factor in any population.

Getting closer and closer to my favorite number, the Keyes Constant.

โ€œEverything is an Xboxโ€œ was the last step in a dozen year decline where the consoles and studios and IP were mismanaged top to bottom.

Canโ€™t talk about that failure without a full accounting going back to the end of the 360 era.

Iโ€™m more than happy to blame Bond for the marketing campaign, but this seems like just pro-Spencer PR spin.

If I was on the hot seat at my job and the announcement dropped on a Friday afternoon that I was gone the following Monday? Thatโ€™s not retirement, thatโ€™s getting the axe.

The Red Sox are no longer lovable losers, they are part of a giant sports megacorp that owns the Penguins, Liverpool FC, golf courses and are vying to get the Vegas NBA expansion slot.

But fuck if John Henry and Tom Werner can take the Boston out of the Sox, namโ€™ saying?

As the guy with the Casey Affleck Dunkin Avatar, It most certainly does not, but it does have cultural gravity. Like how Tim Hortons has gone downhill and is now just a vestigial part of Burger King but itโ€™s still โ€œCanada.โ€

Real New Englanders go to Cumby for dollar coffee.

Itโ€™s like, 3.0+1.0 was Anno thinking that he wrote himself out of the darkness like Alan Wake, and now we find out that it was all in vain and heโ€™s actually still inside the nightmare and his Mr. Scratch (quirk chungus Yoko Taro) is taking over

Iโ€™m glad that the guy who pitched the Gronk Energy Blast (An XL Blue Raspberry Coolata with at least a can of full sugar monster mixed in) is still employed by the Dunkin corporation.

The server complimented me on how prepared I was when ordering my food and coffee. Itโ€™s possible to win at ordering and this is a normal thing to want

Somehow you managed to take an easy W and fumble it into cringe, but I guess thatโ€™s kind of your thing, isnโ€™t it?

When my own actions cause problems that are mostly my fault, but fuck it, I still look good.

Even in a global trade war, we will continue to export shit rat kids from Massachusetts at a rate you may find astonishing.

There is no such thing as a good fandom, there is only less terrible fandoms that are still at risk of exploding at any moment.

Did Phil do a terrible job? Yes. Can it be worse? Also absolutely Yes.

We have real actionable data on this from pro sports. Owners who shut up and sign checks are successful and the fail sons of the world who meddle in the front office are uniformly terrible.

Phil Spencer gone, and replaced by MS head of AI

Oh MS, you always know how to make things worse forever.

Phil promised a lot of things and never delivered for years and years. He absolutely did not do a good job.
