This kid is going places his teacher did not.

Damn Marxists on r/antiwork, bless their hearts, call for a boycott during McRib season? I suppose just the mention of it in this context has disqualified me from their ranks, fucking wannabe leftist that I am, knowing full well the plight of labor but availing myself of its fruits. It’s too bad, too, because I’ve recently gotten into the habit of walking or biking there with a smug sense of self-satisfaction that doing so somehow offsets their insalubrious menu; by not eating in I can do my part to stave off breakthrough infection and disparage the Lexus-driving Koreans who have moved back inside from their makeshift camps in the parking lot; and ogling the occasional black-clad employee who hands me extra BBQ sauce without the least concern for an adequate wage to be objectified by old pervs.

I’ve been hoping the writer of Signal and Kingdom would deliver again with 지리산, but the time traveling ghost story so far has neither the pace of a Netflix season nor sufficient serial killer count; then here comes fabulous fifty-year-old Lady Vengeance 이영애 (with ten years on Sassy Girl 전지현 herself) in a take on Killing Eve that’s at least a decade too early for it to please the shippers yet does a slick job aping its style, right down to the soundtrack, with only the usual anime/webtoon trappings of K-drama holding it back. 근데 왜 나 알은척 안 하니?

Update: That was two episodes in, I still haven’t seen a more stunning moment than that one at the end of them, and with only two to go, I’m handily convinced this is my favorite series of the year. Korean one, ever, for sure, the Oldboy joke and the Chun Doo-hwan certificate framed on the wall of the old-timer sealed it.

Redditor’s work is all the more remarkable because it was done from scratch and not with Mars money (as eye-opening and welcome as it was, on this anniversary of my last job change—what a segue to my upcoming meeting with a former employer, who’s threatening us with an opportunity to return to family office drama). And uncanny valley or no, I’ve always liked multi-angle portraits.

I admit I was also suckered by the Ride video, so instead of giving the YouTube any more views, I embedded a grainier Gfycat that doesn’t even play in Firefox. Unlike with Monster Hunter Rise, I did my due diligence before starting upon the certain path of material discontent with a console that’s hard enough to obtain, a new television to support it, the sound system I’d always promised and of course a couch to replace our aging one. If not for Nintendo’s almost anti-technology stance, I might be disconnected from gaming altogether, having been left unimpressed at the PS3/Blu-Ray generation. There’s definitely a leap to be made to 4K+ and SSD storage, but I’m with the commenter who asked for them to be used for first-person crashes, too, the experience needs to offer more.

Not much more to add than what’s already been archived on Reddit for the life of the Internet, but personally it pains me to corroborate that the 2-nonenal or 加齢臭 from our decaying heads does indeed serve as flypaper. It must’ve been so obvious while I swatted away and deluded myself into blaming the Mountain Dew.

An enterprising Reddit hacker hijacked the popular sub and spoiled much of the remaining season (had to double-check about Hot Pie, because if anything that was a squandered opportunity to bring up Lady Stoneheart instead), proving not only is it not what you know and others don’t, but what they don’t want to.
