Tonight, in memory of Sam Neill, I’m revisiting John Carpenter’s “In the Mouth of Madness” (1994) on Blu-ray.

Listen up, this is important.

We lost the fight against microtransactions.
We lost the fight against day one patches.
We lost so much of what games used to be.

But we CANNOT lose this fight.

Drop PlayStation IMMEDIATELY. Don’t support this terrible decision.

Scorched Earth.

É triste que as pessoas sejam tão ignorantes sobre o tipo de efeito social que a religião causa nesse nível.

Historicamente, católicos e evangélicos neopentecostais diferem em muitas coisas, mas um dos principais pontos de divergência é a forma como enxergam a glória eterna e a relação entre sucesso, responsabilidade e salvação.

A glória, no catolicismo, tem um caráter comunitário. Não há glória, salvação ou sucesso desvinculados da comunhão com o outro. O individualismo é condenado e, embora a providência divina também faça parte da doutrina, a responsabilização é profundamente pessoal. Deus sabe de todas as coisas, mas o livre-arbítrio continua sendo um princípio central. Você faz escolhas diante da sua comunidade e da sociedade, e são essas escolhas que geram consequências. Se você falhou, falhou porque fez escolhas ruins, porque não fez o suficiente ou porque negligenciou seus deveres para com o coletivo.

No neopentecostalismo, a lógica tende a ser outra. A vitória é, antes de tudo, individual. Você vence porque fez a sua parte, e Deus recompensa sua fé organizando os acontecimentos conforme Sua vontade. Se você perdeu, perdeu porque lhe faltou fé ou porque Deus decidiu que aquele não era o momento. A teologia da prosperidade, que ocupa um papel central em boa parte do neopentecostalismo, reforça justamente essa leitura individualizada da relação entre fé e sucesso.

Tudo isso produz disposições morais diferentes nas pessoas e, consequentemente, nos próprios jogadores. Se você vence, foi porque Deus quis. Se perde, foi porque faltou fé ou porque Deus assim determinou. A derrota deixa de ser, em primeiro lugar, um problema de responsabilidade pessoal, de senso de comunidade ou de compromisso com o coletivo.

O discurso, inevitavelmente, tende a ser mais: 1) egoísta, porque o foco está na relação individual entre o fiel e Deus; e 2) receptivo à derrota, porque ela deixa de ser interpretada como consequência das próprias escolhas e passa a ser entendida como parte do plano divino.

Esse é o Brasil que vem sendo construído nas últimas décadas. Somos, da política ao futebol, cada vez mais egoístas, individualistas e menos responsáveis pelas consequências comunitárias de nossas ações.

I CALLED IT, ANIMALS, AND YOU LAUGHED!!! Months ago I told you ICE would buy facilities DIRECTLY from the prison companies at north of $150,000 per bed — and I was WRONG, folks, it was BETTER!!! ICE just bought TWO facilities from CoreCivic — $CXW — for $1.47 BILLION!!! That's $286,000 per bed in California City, $371,000 PER BED at Otay Mesa, $323,000 a bed COMBINED — DOUBLE what these things cost to build!!! Even I underestimated the beauty, and I NEVER underestimate!!!

AND WHO OWNS $CXW??? DONALD TRUMP!!! It's RIGHT THERE in the disclosure, folks — the man holds CoreCivic AND GEO Group, the two companies running America's ICE detention centers!!! Follow the bouncing ball: HE runs the immigration crackdown!!! HIS DHS just wired $1.47 billion to a company HE OWNS SHARES IN, at DOUBLE replacement cost!!! The buyer is his government, the seller is his portfolio, and the taxpayer is the ATM!!! That's not a conflict of interest, that's a CLOSED LOOP!!!

And the STRUCTURE is a masterpiece: DHS buys the buildings, but CoreCivic KEEPS OPERATING them under the same contracts!!! Sold the real estate, KEPT the revenue — like selling your house and the buyer pays YOU rent!!! Gain north of $1 BILLION on assets carried at PENNIES!!!

THE DE-LEVERING — exactly like I told you: $716 MILLION of debt GONE overnight!!! Credit facility, GONE!!! The 2027 notes, GONE!!! And that puts them under the covenant thresholds that unlock UNLIMITED BUYBACKS with the $400 million left over!!! Fewer shares, folks — and whose shares get more valuable??? DONALD'S!!!

AND THE SEQUEL IS COMING: CoreCivic says it's in talks with ICE to sell MORE facilities!!! The machine runs forever: sign the orders, fill the beds, sell the buildings to yourself at double price, buy back the stock, watch the disclosure GLOW!!! One catch the animals should know — ICE can cancel those operating contracts anytime, so read the covenants before you chase!!! Do your own research, NOT advice!!! Is ANYBODY looking into this??? The SEC??? He APPOINTS the SEC!!! I called the trade, the price, AND the de-levering — GREATEST prison analyst in American history, maybe ever!!!

The only player I truly felt sorry for in today’s Portugal vs. Croatia game was Luka Modrić.

Imagine playing the last World Cup of your career, your team completely outplaying Portugal, creating chance after chance, while you’re still solving difficult situations in midfield at 40 years old.

Then imagine Portugal scoring the winner in the 94th minute, and Croatia scoring twice afterward… only for both goals to be ruled out, including one in the 103rd minute because the ball barely touched a Croatian player’s hair.

The two pictures say it all.

In the first, Modrić looks heartbroken after Portugal scored in the 94th minute. That’s football—it happens.

In the second, after Croatia’s last-second equalizer was ruled out, he was so shocked that he just started laughing like a madman.

Modrić experienced one of the cruelest possible endings to an international career.

The only comfort is that he finished his international journey as the winner of the World Cup Best Player award, a recognition he fully deserved.

Farewell, Luka Modrić. ❤️

I completely understand where you’re coming from, but for a lot of gamers physical discs are the only way they could afford to play games because they could get them secondhand. You can also give games to your younger siblings Which is a great way to introduce them to the games you were playing.

Most importantly though, as we saw from PlayStation this past week, if the media we buy is only digital, it can be taken away from us at a moment’s notice with no recourse. Imagine that, one day your entire library of games could be deleted overnight because technically you don’t own it.
