The Cold War is heating up again, motherfuckers! Meanwhile the heat is colding up again, motherfuckers! Man, that was awkward-as-fuck. What I’m trying to say, and failing mind you, is that it’s getting a bit frigid here on the Northeastern Arm of the Empire. But, that ain’t all bad news! With the temperature dropping, and the sun setting, it’s the perfect excuse to stay inside this weekend. Boot-up the PlayStation 5, load-up the new Call of Duty (and Miles Morales) and just be a sack of comfy, cozy shit!

In-between gluttonous play sessions, I hope to spend some time with you fucks here at the Open Bar! I got the hearth going, the suds on tap, and the high-fives primed to be dispensed! Let’s hang the fuck out! Tell me, what are you dudes up to this weekend?

Watching The Mandalorian? Rocking some pre-expansion World of Warcraft? Eating an exorbitant amount of food, happily ensconced in sweatpants and a blanket?

Let’s hang the fuck out.

Listen, I fucking love The Mandalorian. But, I’ve been patiently sweating the Marvel drops on Disney+ for over a year now. Which means I’m pretty fucking torqued that WandaVision has a premiere date. January 15, bitches!

Man, what the fuck? HBO has canceled The Outsider, which was deeply my jam. However, its production company is shopping for a new home. Motherfuckers, it better get revived. Goddamn HBO, thirty-five seasons of fucking Entourage but this shit gets canned.

Look at this beautiful waterfall-looking motherfucking galaxy! Bless you once again, NASA. Bless you one again, Hubble. Capturing this cosmic cascade.

It’s true that Mindhunter is probably dead. But, I can’t help but wonder now, you know? Given that David Fincher has signed a four-year exclusive deal with Netflix. Fucking let me dream, you fools.

Pope Francis is getting into the “shitting one’s pants over AI” game, my dudes. Like, what a weird fucking world we live in. Right? The Pope is concerned about AI, and, well, wants to pray about it. I think we’d be better off using, you know, science to address the problem. But, that’s just me.

Sony’s come out and confirmed what I sort of assumed. That is, Horizon Forbidden West ain’t dropping until late 2021. Not a real big surprise, you know? It makes sense for this glorious son of a bitch to be next year’s big holiday exclusive.

Seven years ago today, I wrote a Monday Morning Commute where I was getting excited for the PlayStation 4. It was titled “A Cascade of Nonsense” and captured how stoked I was! Now, I’m writing an MMC getting excited for the PlayStation 5. Mamma mia, right? This place has been around for a long, long time. And I’m glad it is, to serve as a community and a chronicling of my adventures and excitements.

Small comforts in big times, my friend. They’re the only way I’m navigating this minefield of civic unrest, worldwide sickness, and Zoom classrooms. For if we can’t find them, then what? Doom! Gloom! Madness!

So, I’m about to tell you what I’m excited for this week. Then, I hope you’ll hop into the comments section and give me your own run down.

This is Monday Morning Commute. On a Wednesday. Live from the Space-Ship Omega.

Let’s do this.

Like many folks, I have really enjoyed Jeopardy and all the joy Alex Trebek has spread on the show for years. His death is an absolute bummer, but the dude absolutely crushed it during a tremendous run. So, I’m bummed, but content in knowing he crushed the fuck out of life.

Last night, I finally joined Bags in the 5BC (On Stream) Club. It was more or less one of my proudest gaming moments. As, uh, you can tell.
