When it comes to the general public's opinion on the Halo series overall, how do you feel about the interesting shift to view everything Bungie touched as gold and everything by 343 being worse? Or is my perception wrong, and it was just always like this? Be...
I've mentioned here and there on Patreon having gone on a trip last year, attending a wedding, visiting family, and letting Sparky take me to the big milk.
Don't ask.
There were many amazing things about the trip that were a welcome change from my usual day to day life, but the part I...

Years ago, I heard Fantano describe Billie Eilish's Oxytocin as "if Pharrell Williams made a Nine Inch Nails song." I'd give the same to Slayyyter's Purr that was my gateway to this album.
The rest of the album doesn't fit that description, it range...

One of the goals since coming back home was to consume more art across all of its forms I've loved, books included. It's been a hot minute since I've had one on here, and it makes a lot of sense that the one I am recommending, is all about Art.
What I'm loving about Rick Rubin's book is tha...

Welcome to the most fun I've had watching a movie in years.
It really shouldn't have taken me so long to get around to watching what's often merely viewed as "The Matrix before The Matrix." This is an almost exact balance of cheese, mystery, over the top, down to earth, fucking fun, and tho...

I honestly can't think of any... Fred Durst is bad, and it's hilariously entertaining.

Everyone has that sensation of wishing they had said something, but it's too late.

Normally, I like to mix up the recommendations as best as I can. Follow up each post with a different medium, a game, a movie, an album, if I read more, a book.

So I finally just took a nap on my flight back home to Vancouver with two-hours left of what's totaling up to be a twenty hour journey, ten of those being stranded in Washington D.C.
It's times like these when everyone wishes the E-Cigarette from Metal Gear Solid V was real.

There's many different styles of Acting.
There's the scene-chewing over the top antics of Tim Currey in Red Alert 3. The reserved yet moving words of Morgan Freeman in Seven. The endless electricity of Brad Pitt in Snatch. However, Anora's acting across the entire cast is something I can on...
