MONDAY MORNING COMMUTE: Punch bowl Hallucinations

MMC - Artwork courtesy DEFEAT / Brian Galiano.

Truth be told, I have spent more time searching for the header image for this column than I will end up spending writing it. Whatever. The really juicy nougats come from the give and take inside the comments section, right? My part is to serve as but the catalyst for the gals and guys of OL to begin their weekly wanking. I settled on an image by my good friend Brian Galiano. A couple years back, homeboy drummed up countless works (well, you could count them, but I’m lazy) to accompany Rendar’s novella DEFEAT. If you’ve never read the son of a bitch, start here. Anyways, this is Monday Morning Commute. The column where we elaborate on the distractions coating existence just enough on a given week to give us through the malaise.

‘BORDERLANDS 2’ SLAG-OFF & MEET-UP.

I’ve spent the last ten or so hours where I should have been sleeping or working on my final thesis paper rumbling through the world of Borderlands 2. If you liked the original, douse yourself in anti-piss and prepare for your attempted golden shower. It’s sleeker, with better menus and holy shit a story. If you didn’t like the original, you probably won’t like it. No worries, ya’ll my friends anyways.
