Views From The Space-Ship: Kick Reason To The Curb!

It’s Desktop Thursday, on Friday! Yesterday was busy, man. But like — not in a bad way. Today is busy, man. But like — not in a bad way. I’m eyeing the end of the semester, and really, my biggest concern right now? I’m stuffed into an office, and I’m ripping an insane amount of ass-rockets. The boom, boom, boom of flatulence may very well be heard through the glass door. The boom, boom, boom of thrice-soaked cabbage-scented diaper farts may very well be smelled through the walls.
Hey, what can you do? I mean sure, I could not fart. But that I’ll get a stomachache and I ain’t about that life, you know? Wait — where the fuck are we? Oh, oh yes.
It’s a Desktop Thursday, on Friday! The weekly column where I should you my world(s). Be them virtual, textual, gastronomic, or physical. Then! Oh, then, how I hope you’ll share your own world(s) in the comments section!

R.L. Stine Is Writing ‘Man-Thing’ For Marvel. We Can Have Nice Things!

2016, a year of torrid shits and pain, has at least given me one welcome development. I mean, like, many. But the most recent one is the announcement that R.L. Stine is going to be writing Man-Thing. Now, am I going to read it? Fuck naw. But I just like it existing.
Weekend Open Bar: You Can Still Find The Sun

It’s the freakin’ weekend, baby! This is the freakin’ Weekend Open Bar, baby! After a particularly strenuous week, I’m happy to report I’m currently supine. Type-type-typing away. Next to Mrs. Omega. Got a weekend of gaming, reading, watching, and sleeping on the docket. Can’t complain, can’t complain.
‘War For The Planet Of The Apes’ Trailer: I Did Not Start This War
Here’s the trailer for War For The Planet Of The Apes. Like, how do these movies work? ‘Cause I really enjoy them. They’re fucking preposterous, and overwrought, and that’s what makes them so great.
‘Spider-Man: Homecoming’ Trailer: A Chance To Prove Myself!
This…this trailer really doesn’t do anything for me. It’s tonally all over the place, and it relies way, way too hard on Tony Stark (is this a Spider-Man movie, or a Tony Stark side project?). Just. Yeah. Not feeling the trailer at all. I hope I’m wrong. Seriously though, and just doubling back: go away, Tony Stark. Jesus Christ, we get it, Marvel Studios and Sony are playing nice together. But. Either you’ve cut a trailer that leans too hard on Stark, or you’ve cut a movie that leans too hard on Stark.

John Glenn, First American To Orbit The Earth, Has Died At Age 95

Well, it’s official. 2016 is officially the worst. It’s sort of been official for a good long while now, but as a space geek, this cuts to the core.
Watch: Miyamoto Playing The ‘Super Mario Bros’ Theme With The Roots
Here’s Shigeru Miyamoto jamming the Super Mario Bros. theme with The Roots. Straight-up wonderful, man. And. Jesus Christ. Maybe it’s because I’m overtired, and it’s the end of the semester, and 2016 sucks, and 2017-whatever feels terrible, but the innocence and nostalgia of this almost moved me to tears. I need some rest.
