And here I thought I'd already listened to Dear Hank and John this morning.

I liked Simulation Theory as is, but the extended version has a lot of cool experiments like this that, imo, actually work better than the originals. The Gospel version of Dig Down is very cool, and the acoustic cover of Something Human is lovely.

Obligatiory recommendedation: Jason co-hosts a gaming news podcast called Triple Click, alongside Maddy Myers, Deputy Games Editor at Polygon, and Kirk Hamilton, formerly of Kotaku and now host of Strong Songs. They're excellent at their work.

This is fascinating (and unsettling). I had no idea.

I'm romancing Shadow (and also Gale, apparently), and when Lae'zel found out she basically said, "your loss, istik. I'mma go bang Wyll."

Respect.

Ezra is a practical soul at heart, no matter what he says.

note to self 📖🖋️ Watch out for Laura.

To assume something isn't true based solely on the fact that you've never experienced it demonstrates a profound lack of empathy and critical thought. So does taking the time to complain about trans people in a meme instead of having an actual conversation with another human being.

If you take the time to do the latter instead, you might develop a shred of empathy, but you're afraid to, because that might mean you have to admit that you're wrong.

Johnny would be proud. 😎

This article has a pretty negative slant, but is anyone actually sad they're going? I've been playing on and off since 2014, and I never have enough shards. My friends that have played almost nonstop since launch constantly have more than they could ever spend, even if they masterworked every piece of gear in their collection. Seems like a good change, honestly.

I know this is obvious, but Cash's beliefs are endlessly fascinating. The same man who recorded "Ragged Old Flag" also wrote "Man in Black" and covered "Out Among the Stars." The latter is a song about a kid who commits suicide by cop because he doesn't feel like his life matters.

Clairo's Sofia is a catchy song and a sweet romance.
