Yes, just complete insanity. I have never seen Sean Evans look so worried for a guest’s wellbeing. And in the middle of his skit Conan still found time to compliment Sean’s questions.

And that’s the effect of 2004-2014. There is a considerable lag in the effect CO2 has on the climate. And our output still increases.

And then there’s Conan O’Brien, who’s just generally hilarious.

Totally with you.

Well, we can always limit the damage because the damage only goes up if we don’t.

1933 if you’re refering to Hitler. He was already six years in power in 1939.

So, we don’t have any place left in the party for Glorfindel. But he mainly knows how to slay Balrogs and what are the chances we’re going to meet one of those?

The biopic? It’s good. Not as funny as it could have been, but Radcliffe is amazing and you learn many interesting facts about Al (like the steamy relationship with Madonna).

Oh, the world is fine, it’s already its sixth mass extinction event. It is us who are fucked.

I would say do every actual sidequest but don’t bother clearing the map of all question marks. Hunting for Witcher school gear is also just mostly cosmetic and optional, but they’re the coolest armors and swords.

Also, if you’re not playing on the lowest difficulty, read the infos in your journal regarding the creatures and prepare accordingly.

I don’t doubt that it looks amazing on a good PC, but it’s also one of the best looking games on the PS5 and runs very well.

Yep, they also made me want to rewatch X-Files and Twin Peaks, two obvious inspirations (plus Stephen King particularly The Dark Tower, another kind of house that is the linchpin of universes).

I can also recommend The Lost Room mystery series from 2006. It’s use of magical, but mundane objects and a timeless hotel room also seems to have been a direct inspiration.

I never played Alan Wake through to the end until recently when I got the second one.

Then I played through the first one, followed by Control including the DLCs and then Alan Wake 2. I can’t recommend this enough, it’s an incredible ride.

Well yes, we could send Glorfindel who has already fought a Balrog before. But, hear me out, what about this pudgy gardener instead?

It’s relentlessly bleak and cruel but fun and entertaining at the same time (at least the first one).

It’s also really not all that hard once you figure out what’s most important to grow the city.

Oh yeah, the super sorcerer that didn’t want to die. I seriuosly never understood why DEATH keeps him around.

Maybe he wants to prove to Albert that he genuinely wants to die after being a servant for several millenia?

CITIZEN! DO NOT BE ALARMED! YOU WILL FEEL A SMALL TICKLING SENSATION AND THEN DEATH!

Well, he could talk to his adopted granddaughter, but who does that?

I always felt he only took on an apprentice to have someone to talk to.

Is that an AI comic? It’s incomprehensible.

From three day special operation to forever war, from world power to laughing stock.
