i thought you were kidding until i saw the wikipedia link. that’s fascinating, and very cool that they still have the penny

for longer drives i queue up albums or an audio book, but for shorter drives i always use the radio. there’s something fun about “fishing” for a good song and those morning talk shows are stupid but endearingly so in small doses

when i lived in buffalo, we had this amazing station WECK FM that was what an oldies station was back when what an oldies station is now was modern, so like all 50s and 60s early rock and pop. five years living there and i was somehow still constantly hearing stuff i’d never heard before

i absolutely adore this art style

i passed over the first mario movie because the trailers made it feel to “look, thing from game!” and it seems like this one is doubling down on that just with nintendo instead of mario. it’s a shame, because mario’s wild setting is such fertile ground to tell all sorts of stories, and star fox could make for a great space opera in it’s own right. here’s hoping this upcoming zelda thing has some faith in itself instead of just trying to cruise on brand recognition

that’s the opposite of the point he’s trying to make. he’s not critiquing TNG, he’s parodying bad faith critiques of modern trek by showing how easy it is to turn those criticisms on the show those same people claim to love. he gets especially meta when comparing TNG to TOS, claiming “TOS would never do that” but every single example is something the original series also did. turns out star trek was always about compassion and inclusivity!
