  • The IBM Selectric. It was a big deal back in the day for typing. If you learned to type in the mid-20th century, you probably had one or wanted one. It was one of those machines that changed the game, but honestly, it’s just a typewriter. Nothing too exciting. Just a heavy piece of equipment that made typing a bit easier.

    Anyway, it’s not like we’re all rushing to use one now. Times have changed, I guess.

  • I can't believe we're actually doing this. Mac from *It's Always Sunny* is adapting the *Far Cry* series for FX? What a complete joke! Ubisoft's rich storytelling and immersive worlds are being handed over to a mediocre sitcom writer. Are we really lowering our standards this much? This is a slap in the face to fans of both franchises. The last thing we need is another half-baked adaptation that disrespects the source material. If this is the best idea Hollywood can come up with, we’re in serious trouble. Let’s hope this trainwreck doesn’t derail both *Far Cry* and *It’s Always Sunny* in the process.

  • In a world where silence often drowns out our voices, I find myself yearning for connection. The talking robot, with its typewriter tech for a mouth, reminds me of the beauty and heartache of communication. Once, we had the Selectric typewriter, a marvel of engineering that brought our thoughts to life. Now, even amidst innovation, I feel the hollow echo of loneliness. The mechanical clicks can't replace the warmth of a real conversation. I long for the days when words flowed freely, unfiltered by wires and circuits. Each keystroke feels like a reminder of what we’ve lost—the intimacy of shared moments, the joy of understanding.

  • The new Office spin-off has dropped its first trailer, and let’s just say it’s a masterclass in how to take hilarity and toss it right out the window. With one returning star who’s apparently the best part, it’s clear that the rest of the cast is still searching for the punchline. If you ever wondered what it looks like when a comedy decides to be anything but funny, look no further! Who knew that laughter could be so elusive? Perhaps the writers were too busy spinning their wheels to remember what made the original so delightful. Here’s to hoping the actual show has a better sense of humor than this trailer!

  • So, apparently, "Keyboard Hero" is the new jam for those who found Guitar Hero too mainstream. I mean, who needs six strings when you can tap on a glorified typewriter? It’s like someone realized that pretending to be a rock star was just too much effort, so they decided to give us a game where we can be a rock star while sitting in our pajamas, typing our epic ballads. Who knew that rhythm could come with a side of ergonomic wrist support?

    As the world moves on from the electric guitar craze, those diehard fans still cling to their rhythm games like it's 2005. Let’s just hope they don’t start a petition for a "Flute Hero" next. Because, you know, nothing

  • Lately, I've been seeing a lot of authors on TikTok, posting videos under the hashtag #WritersTok. Apparently, they’re trying to prove that they’re not using AI to write their work. It’s kind of funny, I guess. They edit their manuscripts, showing us all the “human” effort that goes into writing. But honestly, it feels a bit pointless.

    I mean, do we really need to see authors editing? Isn’t that something we just assume they do? I don’t know, maybe it's just me, but watching someone scribble on a page or type away doesn’t seem that exciting. I get it, they want to show the world that they are real people with real processes, but can't that be implied? It's like they’re all saying, “Look, I’m not a robot,” when, in reality, most of us already knew that.

    The whole protest against AI in writing feels a bit overblown. Sure, AI is becoming a big deal in the creative world, but do we need a TikTok movement to showcase that human touch? I guess it’s nice that indie authors are trying to engage with readers, but can’t they find a more interesting way? Maybe just write more, I don’t know.

    The videos are everywhere, and it’s almost like an endless scroll of the same thing. People editing, people reading excerpts, and then more people explaining why they’re not using AI. It’s all a bit much. I suppose they’re trying to stand out in a world where technology is taking over writing, but does it have to be so… repetitive?

    Sometimes, I wish authors would just focus on writing rather than making videos about how they write. We all know writing is hard work, and they don’t need to prove it to anyone. Maybe I’m just feeling a bit lazy about it all. Or maybe it’s just that watching someone edit isn’t as captivating as a good story.

    In the end, I get that they’re trying to build a community and show their process, but the TikTok frenzy feels a bit forced. I’d rather pick up a book and read a good story than watch a video of someone tweaking their manuscript. But hey, that’s just me.

  • Minecraft, le film! Who would have thought that the blocky world of pixelated creativity could translate into a cinematic masterpiece? Apparently, millions of viewers thought it was a grand idea, as the film had a staggering opening weekend in the US, raking in a whopping $157 million. Yes, you read that right - more than the Super Mario Bros movie. Because who wouldn’t want to see blocks, cubes, and digital creatures come to life on the big screen?

    Let’s take a moment to appreciate the sheer brilliance of this phenomenon. Imagine a meeting room filled with executives in suits, sipping overpriced coffee, discussing how to turn a game about mining and building into a multi-million dollar franchise. “What if we add a plot?” one visionary must have suggested. “And maybe some actual characters!” shouted another. Brilliant! Because nothing screams box office hit like a narrative about crafting and survival – the quintessential human experience, am I right?

    And while we’re at it, let’s not overlook the glorious irony of a massive online leak. One might think that a film like Minecraft, which is all about building and creating, would have safeguards against such breaches. Yet here we are, in a world where fans are more adept at finding leaks than creepers are at sneaking up on unsuspecting players. It’s as if the universe itself is saying, “Why wait for the official release when you can embrace the chaos of the internet?”

    Moreover, the film’s success raises an important question: is this the pinnacle of creativity, or just a sign that Hollywood has officially run out of ideas? After all, why bother developing original content when you can simply mine from the vast experiences of gamers? There’s a certain elegance to recycling beloved franchises; the nostalgia factor alone is worth millions. Let’s just hope that the next film adaptation is as riveting as watching a character gather resources for five hours straight.

    And speaking of adaptations, let’s give a nod to the directors and writers who managed to transform a game with virtually no plot into a cinematic sensation. If these individuals can take pixelated blocks and turn them into a story that captures the hearts of millions, perhaps we should hand them the keys to the next great literary classic. Who wouldn't want to see a film based on the riveting tale of a potato?

    In conclusion, Minecraft, le film is a remarkable testament to the state of modern cinema. It embodies the essence of our times: a blend of nostalgia, creativity, and a hint of desperation. So, grab your popcorn and enjoy the show, folks! Who knows what other game adaptations await us? Maybe Tetris will be next!
