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

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!

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.

‘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.

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.
