Attack of the Boggles
This neat little game may fool you into thinking it’s educational because it looks like microbes crawling on a periodic table. However, it’s really just good, mind-numbing fun. The object of the game is to control the white bacteria thingy with your mouse and move it to the little squares that appear on the screen. Each time you do this, exponentially more little red bacteria thingies appear. If you touch those, you die, and to make matters worse, you grow in size until you hit the boxes, so you have to move fast.

I never played Popopop 1, if there is one, but I can’t imagine a game much more simple than this. Just drop detonating balls next to balls of the same color to pop them. I feel like someone out there is getting way to much pleasure playing this game.
Side-scrolling funage for a rainy, lazy day. I’ve been putzing around on this and sipping nettle tea. Moles are cute.
Wheeeeee! This game is so freaking fun! You move your cursor over each dot to make them split into four smaller dots ad infinitum.

As much as I post about nerd-pleasing pop-culture nostalgia, this Gizmo figurine by Funko is the first geektastic thing that’s genuinely excited me. I used to love the Gremlins movies as a kid, and I thought Gizmo was adorable. He’s Chinese like me!
Rarely is a film politically poignant as well as wonderfully written, acted and shot. The second feature from director Kimberly Peirce of Boys Don’t Cry was inspired by her brother, who joined the army, and was only possible after months of meticulous research. Read more
If you’re in New Orleans and you love barbeque, make sure to stop by The Joint in the Bywater neighborhood. Their brisket is outstanding, and for under $11 for a pound of the fatty, delicious beef and two sides, it’s a super good deal. Their ribs are also pretty good, but seriously, the brisket is the jam.

Give me a minor key song anytime. Yup, I’ll take the heartfelt purity of an introspective trawl over any warm and fuzzy major key shimmy. I once asked UK band The Editors why there aren’t more cheerful songs in the world: ‘Three words’, vocalist Tom Smith replied. ‘Shiny Happy People’. He smirked. I grimaced. Enough said.
