S2:E30 – Ready Player One Trailer

You stare into the void. You press “Like”. The “Like” spirals toward the center of the void, stretching and elongating as if drawn to the infinite mass at the heart of a black hole. Time ticks by slowly as this happens, but its effects are no less potent. You try and engage with the void, to “Laugh”, to “Cry”, to “Follow” but each and every digital sentiment is inexorably gobbled up by the darkness.

This is the future and we are to blame. It is not too late to change this, but the void coughs up a profane simulacrum of our youths, an image meant to placate us, to soothe us to inaction. Calmed we are, and we praise and love the void for another day. So we beat on, boats against the current, borne back ceaselessly into the past.

Unrelated, we watched the Ready Player One trailer this week. Enjoy.

S2:E28 – NBA Jam Arcade Attract Mode

If NBA Jam taught me anything in life, it taught me that you definitely catch the ball on fire if you get three or more baskets in a row and that when you achieve turbo, your shoes will light up and make you go fast. So, no, NBA Jam didn’t really teach me anything. But it was fun! And nothing will trip you harder into the land of 90s Nostalgia than a tinny computerized announcer voice shouting “Boomshakalaka!” into your ear. All we did was watc this on loop and now we have to run and find a State Fair to dump all this Taz merchandise that came out of nowhere. Get in the car!

Tie-in music videos are nothing special, except when a hit 90s singer uses them to confess his undying love for Batman. Will Batman finally notice Seal, or will his father force him to abandon childish things and marry his cousin or whatever? We expect a job offer from CLAMP after this episode!
