Monday Morning Commute: well it ain’t perfect but i don’t mind [because it’s worth it]
Whelp. It’s Monday, folks. And that fucking sucks. Whelp. It’s dark out at 4:45 pm, folks. And that fucking sucks as well. But, here I am. Here you are, too! If you’re reading this. Mindlessly browsing this collection of letters and symbols while taking a crap, or standing on a bus, or reclining on a couch, or sitting at your computer desk. And really, what can we do about this current situation? Make the most of it, I suppose. Together!
Here in Monday Morning Commute!
You know the spiel. This here is the weekly wank-off where we share what we’re looking forward and enjoying across the latest Monday through Friday gauntlet. Nothing says “surviving life” like listing off a series of distractions. And, nothing says “community” like me screaming into the bleak, blank, black void of cyberspace.
I hope you’ll join me in the comments section!
Voyager 2 has sent back its first scientific date from interstellar space. Interstellar space data, people!
Man, what a dichotomy we are as humans. On one hand, we’re warring over fuels, Imaginary People in the Sky, and greed. Real monkey shit. At the same time? We’re getting data back from beyond the solar system, courtesy of Voyager 2! Interstellar space data!
MIT’s got robot blocks that can self-assemble like Transformers. Oh, the robot apocalypse fixing to be wild!
MIT got itself robot blocks that self-assemble. I mean, I’ve long been welcoming our robot overlords. And now I’m doubly excited, because they’re going to be coming in fun-ass forms.
‘Ant-Man 3’ is officially happening with director Peyton Reed returning. Hell yeah! Nice, fun, low-stakes popcorn franchise, IMO.
We’re getting an Ant-Man 3, baby! Nice. I appreciate Ant-Man. It’s funny, it’s cute, it’s forgettable. In short, it’s everything that most of the MCU is, without a desperate need to try and be more. It doesn’t pretend to be something deeply important, or have much to say, and honestly, I really appreciate that shit.
Astronomers have discovered a Black Hole only the size of Manhattan. The Cosmos constantly impresses, friends!
Astronomers have discovered a black hole the size of Manhattan. Or in other words, 12-miles in diameter. And in turn? They’ve discovered an entirely new class of black hole. Fucking rad.
‘Spider-Man: Into the Spider-Verse’ Sequel dropping April 8, 2022. How the fuck do they top the perfect original?
Spider-Man: Into The Spider-Verse is the greatest comic book movie of all time. To me, to me. So fuck yeah, I’m excited the movie is getting a sequel. But how the fuck do they even come close to touching it? Glad I ain’t in charge of figuring that out.
‘World of Warcraft: Shadowlands’ Cinematic Trailer: That Power Will Be Your Prison!
Even if they don’t make me super horny like they used to, I’m always excited by the announcement of a new World of Warcraft expansion. Shadowlands, baby!
‘Diablo IV’ Cinematic and Gameplay Trailers: By Three They Come, and They’re All Very Bloody
Oh, fuck yeah. We got ourselves some Diablo IV, people! Not just an announcement cinematic, either! A gameplay trailer too!
‘Watchmen’ soundtrack by Trent Reznor and Atticus Ross gonna be dropped in three volumes. I cannot fucking wait.
I’ve only watched the first episode of Watchmen. But, man. I fucking loved it, and the music was a huge part of my enjoyment. So I’m fucking stoked that we’re going to be getting the soundtrack, even if it’s coming in three volumes. I fucking hate waiting! However, it’s neat that they’re going to drop them at key points in the season.
