• Demand! I'm beginning to think that all my gaming money should go to ethical publishers like Plaid Hat Games who keeps their games in print. They use print-on-demand to fulfill orders by people wanting their older stuff. I started playing the excellent Ashes Ascendency expecting that I'd only have a few sets available to buy and everything else would be out of print. Because that's how publishers like Fantasy Flight Games operate. But nope! All the previous cycle Ashes Reborn cards and sets are available!

I found this out when a guy posted about it on the Solo Board Gamers group. So I rushed to a gaming shop and ordered more Phoenixborn Heroes and Chimera invaders to play. REFRESHING!! I wish I had this option for Marvel Champions and Arkham Horror LCG, and I don't understand why Fantasy Flight doesn't hop on the print-on-demand bandwagon. It's like they are throwing money in a fire while pissing off the people wanting to play their games. Bravo and many thanks to Plaid Hat, who cares about the gamers new to their games!

   
• Don't Drive Angry! Groundhog Day is one of my all time favorite films, and it's gotten a lot of analysis over the years. Whenever I happen across another person looking back at this exceptional film, I watch it. This one is very good...

I hope Groundhog Day continues to find an audience, because it's a really special movie.

   
• Hell on Earth! Look, I love The Cheesecake Factory. I eat there whenever I'm in a city which has one. But Obama was clearly making a joke, and even Cheesecake Factory would admit that their interior design is fucking nuts. This look at the franchise is fantastic...

If I'm being honest, having a wildly eclectic and over-the-top design aesthetic in a restaurant is kinda cool. But slapping a bunch of gaudy, tacky, gold shit over the White House is the very definition of "hellscape." It's like a poor person's idea of what rich people live like. Well, thanks to non-stop grifting of the American people, Trump actually has money... so why is he like this?

   
• Take it Slow! That's right! That's right! You get it girl. Go to Pound Town with your funky self!

Whoops. I guess it's "Pounds Hollow" not "Pound Town." Ordinarily, I wouldn't post something like this here. I don't want to mock somebody doing something they love. Follow your dreams. Live your bliss. But this woman is using AI to make it appear that she has actual talent, and it's asinine...

How does she think that she actually made this song? HOW?

   
• Kegsbreath! This is heartbreaking. But more than that it's rage-inducing. What's been done in our name will never, ever be forgiven. And nor should it.

Do you know how we know we've lost the high road? The "Department of Defense" was changed to the "Department of War." It was a very clear sign of what this country has become.

   
• Always Hypocrisy! I was at a restaurant last month where people were praying over their food in public. Does this heinous bigot make videos about that? They were Christians... so where's that video?

The fact that these people are so blissfully unaware of their hypocrisy is scary as hell.

   
• I Swear! And while we're on the subject... there's now a bunch of people freaking out over the fact that Abdul El-Sayed could be the first senator to be sworn in on the Qur'an instead of a Bible. And here we go. The point of being "sworn into office" is that you swear on something important to you to demonstrate the seriousness of your conviction. You are swearing on something as proof of your loyalty to the oath you are taking. So if the Bible is important to you... swear on that. If the Qur'an is important to you... swear on that. According to THE LAW you can swear on whatever you like. If religion isn't important to you then swear on The Constitution, which should be what politicians are sworn in on! You can swear on a fucking gum wrapper. So stop trying to be a dramatic dumbass by reading more into this than what it is... performative. I don't care what you swear on so long as you do your fucking job and uphold The Constitution. My God this is dumb.

   
• Trifecta! And now, since we're wrapping up this Bullet Sunday with anti-Muslim nonsense, we have this...

I wish these dumbfucks would have even a tiny amount of theology in their head before they show how fucking ignorant they are by spouting this stupid shit. — Muhammad is not God. He's a prophet. So this statement would be like saying "One Nation Under Moses," who is a Christian prophet. But no... it's "One Nation Under God" and Allah is another name for God, so that's all irrelevant. This idiot doesn't know any damn thing but, because he had a hit song once, we have to hear his idiotic crap from time to time. He needs to change his name from "Kid Rock" to "Crack Rock," because he has to be on the rock in order to not know how damn stupid this is.

   
And now... it's time to finish laundry so I have clothes to wear in the morning.
