The latest in the Rust accident
Our hearts go out to the family of Halyna Hutchins and to Joel Souza and all involved in the incident on “Rust”. No one should ever be killed by a gun on a film set. Period. 💔

The latest on this story is that the shooting may have been recorded. Meanwhile, Joel Souza is out of the hospital. And, on top of everything, this might not be the first safety issue on this set.

Boring!

Thanks to the Clark County team for the great partnership and to the Commissioners for unanimous approval. https://t.co/KrfF5SUsxq
I've lived long enough to see plenty of pie-in-the-sky infrastructure projects come and go. If they can make this work, more power to them.
And this has been your regular Boring Company update.
Show me your strength

No big deal to our man, discoRyne. Just shiving dudes, like one does. Better than him metaphorically shiving us in Rocket League.
Spelunky 2 still going strong
There aren't a lot of games that know how to kick you straight in the gonads the way that Spelunky 2 still does.
IT'S STILL REAL TO ME, DAMMIT!
While AEW's Adam Cole takes tonight off from AEW Rampage, let's watch him team up with the former Tyler Breeze to take on Halo... and say a few things about the current state of Twitch.
Tonight in video game music
The latest from Mariachi Entertainment System is up! And with the Halloween holiday coming up, they take on this classic track from Ghosts 'n Goblins.
