Anyways everybody go download Handshakes it's literally free and you can 100% it in less than two hours. The core concept is so clever it actually makes me a little mad that I never thought of it myself.

JAXA made an "ISS simulator" in the last month and nobody told me!!????

There are a great many deeply odd indie games to be found on Steam by searching random nouns and sorting by "free". Mostly trash though.

Sci-Fi Murder on the Orient Express-style detective fiction set on a space train called "Hydrogen Line".

Get it 'cause "line" means train route but also hydrogen line observations can see through interstellar dust clouds in the same way a detective sees through the perpetrator.

The US National Ignition Facility has announced today the discovery of a new kind of self-hate that makes things better instead of worse.

I've brought it up before, and I'll bring it up again: Disney's 1979 flop The Black Hole.

Flipping rapidly between the worst, most anodyne episode of Star Trek: TOS you've ever seen; incoherent infodumps about the most boring lore you've ever heard of, melodrama so uncompelling it makes you want to go do the dishes, and shots that look like this:

--I think it's safe to say that this movie has wormed its way into my mind like little else. It's surprisingly bad, given how good it is. It's also surprisingly good, given how bad it is.

Finally, I'd like to give a special shout-out to Maximilian Schell's performance as Dr. Hans Reinhardt. That guy was giving it 150% the entire film and it rules. Really feels like he was in an entirely different movie to the rest of the cast. (Though you could also say that about basically every other character to some degree -- inconsistency runs throughout the picture)

What's your "It would be awesome if it wouldn't be bad" media?

Mine is Mobile Suit Gundam. Like 90% of it. There's a 10% that's pure awesome.
