Every new VR game I play, I think: Well that's more fun than I ever thought possible. Then I play the next one and it somehow becomes even more fun. It is the most preposterous, aggressively enjoyable thing.
To those asking, playing on Quest 2. Games: Beat Saber. Superhot VR. The Room. Vader. Robo Recall. Rush. And for working out: Thrill Of The Fight.
Every single one of them makes you look a giant bellend while tricking you into thinking you're John Wick, so consider the ammunition you're giving to your family mock you.
Fucking worth it though.

It's happening tonight. The Doritos Lasagna will be challenged by a new experiment: the tamale pie.
This was some of the best shit I ever cooked. Looked like baby sick, obviously, but then Latin food so often does. Tasted like you were being touched by God.
I think what I find so irritating about the fleets (urgh) is that this site, for all its faults, is predominantly about what's going on in someone's head, not what they look like.

Bit of news - we've got a few changes going on at Politics.co.uk towers.
I'm leaving my position as editor and turning into…. editor at large.
In effect, we're splitting my role, so that I keep the writing and let go of the other editorial responsibilities, which have been occupying a lot of my time.
We obvs can't go near cinemas at the moment, but fwiw, we felt very safe in cinemas before lockdown: you're well away from anyone, people are wearing masks and the audience is not talking.
I struggled with first WW film and really dislike DC's films in general. But fuck me if going to see a good Wonder Woman film isn't exactly what I need right now.
We can of course go back to usual pattern of mutual loathing and frustration. Or people can take the fight to the real enemy.
That involves at least one concession on each side. The Labour left should accept the EHRC antisemitism report in its entirely. It has to commit to anti-racism. Some never will - and they should fuck off. The majority of the left does and will.
