Matt Damon playing a 14th century French knight that looks like a third baseman for the Phillies. Mullet. Beard. Smells like horse shit, pine tar, and cigarette smoke.

Matt Damon while playing Odysseus who also looks like a third baseman for the Phillies. Long, skinny beard. Smells like horseshit, pine tar, and perhaps Mediterranean herbs.

Matt Damon playing a 19th century cowboy that looks like a third baseman for the Phillies. Mustache. Shaggy hair. Smells like horse shit, pine tar, and definitely chewing tobacco.

Every time Matt Damon takes on a period role he ends up looking like a third baseman for the Phillies.

Stefon from weekend update giving us the rundown on NYC nightlife.

“New York’s hottest club is ‘Microsoft Visual Studio Insiders’ it’s got everything. Bottle service by Cortana, gay guys dressed as Bill Gates dancing on server racks, and Brian Eno playing the extended club remix of the Windows 95 startup sound.”

These are cool. You could use them as miniatures in a war game that show actual battle damage (limb blow off, etc.).

That child working the self checkout area at Sainsbury’s didn’t even glance at me before hitting the “visibly over 21” button. One day it’ll happen to him, and although I’ll be long dead, I’ll be laughing my head off!

Bao chicka wow-wow! 👀

Ratfink driving a stylized hot rod.

Does Bone Shaker come with a repainted Rattrap, who looks like this:

Lakitu from the start of Mario 64.

Would’ve been funnier if the camera operator looked like this:

Big poster for a chocolate diamond ring

The chocolate diamond. Previously unsellable trash. Maybe use it in the tip of a drill bit. Nah, I bet with some marketing, we can get uninformed people to pay too much for them. 🤑

Anyone tried this Coca Cola stuff?

The search on the Meta Quest website is embarrassing. Limiting results to 4, with a small “see all” button just means people give up when looking for something they don’t know the exact name of.

Tried to find “Ghost Town” by searching “ghost.” Not a top 4 result, so thought I had the name wrong.

The sign for the hotel has been rearranged to read “Farty Towels.”

I’ll allow it.

I think there’s a save point just beyond the lilies.

It doesn’t say an Nvidia 5090. It’s a perfectly adequate Pannervonix 5090 VGA card.

The classic line from the movie Tombstone: “Draw off, cock washer!” Right before Kurt Russel slaps Billy Bob Thornton across the face.

Garbage - The World Is Not Enough (UNKLE Remix) YouTube video by YCKFides

I like this UNKLE remix of The World is Not Enough as well:

Sorry, it’s spelled MorTdecai. Roundly panned by critics, but it is what it is. Goofy caper movie that would have been a blockbuster in the 60’s.

I’ll probably lose you on this, but I put Hudson Hawk, Mordecai and Argylle in this same family tree of movies that failed because Hollywood doesn’t know how to market a Caper Farce anymore.

They’re a loving homage to the same genre Austin Powers is a parody of.

Add that to the Zootopia 3 ideas pile.

…and go get a physical & eat a salad!

Changing my name to Brownman Unstable in the hopes of meeting a hottie.

Isn’t this where Peter Parker’s uncle died?

In the Sainsbury’s ready meal aisle, there are 10 different names for “6 ounces of meat with 8 ounces of mashed potato on top.” 🫡🇬🇧🤴🙇‍♂️

Ash from the movie Alien saying his classic line: “I admire its toe beans.”

The Transformers animators really used their imaginations when it came to adapting the Ratchet and Ironhide toys.

The hardcover of Platform Decay, art by Jaime Jones, stacked in a cardboard box with padding air bags.

So this arrived today:

Have you checked out Psycho-Pass?

We’re cooking on Beyond the Spider-Verse!!! So excited to share these new stills… see you in IMAX on June 18, 2027!! 🕷️

I forgot to mention: At the end of the prototype, when you step on the rocket, since there's no skybox it launches you back into your living room. It's a really cool way to end the experience!

One of the things I was curious about was if body awareness helped reduce motion sickness. I'm usually really susceptible to sim-sickness and I can speed run vrplatforms now with very little wobbliness.
