A THREAD. This week lots of my friends will be driving cross-country to Indianapolis for Gen Con, a big gaming industry convention. They'll also be driving home - and they're way more likely to be exhausted! This seems like a good time to pull out my semi-annual standard advice to keep you alive.

I’m flying back from Sheboygan with fifteen pounds of fresh cheese curds and made-today string cheese. On the other hand, my flight-that-replaced-a-canceled-flight (that itself replaced a different canceled flight) now gets me home at 3 am. At least we know I won’t starve?

We do one of these every year, and it’s pretty much the best. There’s good advice here.

You guys, I think I’ve figured out how Avengers: Doomsday canonically resolves! They’re not showing Squirrel Girl… YET. #tippytoes4Eva

The 1st edition of @megueyb.bsky.social ‘s Psi*Run is BRILLIANT - recreating the feel of Stephen King’s Firestarter in a RPG that does “holy crap we have no memory and we are running for our lives” so very well. Please grab 2e! I think you’ll be glad you did. www.kickstarter.com/projects/117...

PsiRun Second EditionWhoever was holding you captive, you're free, for now. You have superpowers & amnesia. You know they're after you. What could go wrong?www.kickstarter.com

Tommy Wiseau of The Room has made a shark movie, BIG SHARK - and he sent me a love note! Also, on the back side of the love note, I learn that he really wants me to buy his underwear. Didn’t expect that.

Crappy shark movie #190 was WATER PARK SHARK, which we ranked at #122 (below Bikini Shark & Ouija Shark 2). It’s the 1st movie where we are convinced the stinker of a script was written by ChatGPT! Acting was fun, CGI sharks were fun, budget was decent, but the script was bad.

EYE ON THE PRIZE.

My dog Yoink loves this lake as much as I do. Today we loved it at 5:30am.

Today I learned that the European Space Agency has an acoustic testing facility so loud (158 db) that it can kill a person. I desperately want to see this used in a locked room murder mystery. www.esa.int/Enabling_Sup...
