“Game Over” Atari 2600/E.T. Documentary
I just got done watching the documentary from Microsoft called “Game Over”, which is the story of the Atari 2600 and the E.T. cartridge being buried in a landfill in New Mexico. Wanted to write about it a bit, because several parts were pretty powerful for me.

Back to the Future is 40
This one feels bizarre. It just snuck up on me late this evening on 3 Jul 2025. I saw a meme online that Back to the Future turned 40 today, so I had to go look it up. Yup, indeed. Was released on 3 Jul 1985. Holy crap. That feels wrong, because it doesn’t FEEL […]
