Last year I went to see Extraña forma de vida or Strange Way of Life, a movie by Pedro Almodovar. The thing is that it’s actually a short and we don’t usually see shorts as single screenings in theaters.
Here’s the thing: You are paying a mana, a card and two life to get rid of one card in hand, for which the opponent has not paid anything (most of the time). There’s even a strong possibility that the card is dead later in the game or even harmful, if you only gain information by paying all those costs. How can this possibly be beneficial?
Let’s start with this:
It’s been over two months since Steve Albini dies, but I’m still listening to all the records he engineered (as he would call his production work). One of the bands I got back to because of this is The Breeders.
Well, maybe not your specifically, but the ones you run into all the time.
Let’s get controversial.
All of them previous ones.
First
Second
Third
Fourth
Fifth
Sixth (the Finnish edition)

Note: My touchpad is acting up weirdly, which causes the cursor to sometimes jump, which means that as I’m writing, I’m suddenly adding characters to somewhere I didn’t mean to. So, if there’s weird words somewhere, this might be the reason.
Caveat: While I try not to center myself here, as Pride is definitely not about me, I can’t but contrast certain things to myself. After all, everyone has to experience the world through their own eyes, even if we know and understand that we are not the main character outside of our own lives. So, sorry to bring myself up so many times in the text below. I just couldn’t process this any other way. That’s on me. But hopefully I do manage to talk about something interesting here.
Last year I wrote about the Sexuality in Borderlands. The thing is that in many ways sexuality, as we know it, doesn’t actually exist in Borderlands.
Or Vincent doit mourir in the original Frnech.
IMDb and Rotten Tomatoes classify this as a comedy, but Letterbox’d doesn’t. Here we are anyhow.
Spoilers.
