There's an awful lot of rambling this week about GameCenter CX, resuscitating your Commodore 64, children enjoying the gaming classics, uploading your street-corner CDs to archive.org, the simple joy of the Sears catalog, and why you should never ask Google a question again.

I wish Alex would maybe lay off the weird Chuck Wendig hate; he said something dumb, then retracted it, and had nothing to do with the lawsuit. I genuinely don't like Wendig as, like, a writer, but publishers were always going to sue over what IA did, and no single author had jack to do with it. He became a convenient scapegoat for people to latch onto who clearly didn't actually understand what was happening. Honestly each of you has for sure said stuff online that people could be forever aggro about, ya know?

Just listening now via my Ground Control clearance. Based on my work experience, I believe the term for large department stores at the ends of malls is anchor stores. Looking it up, I see they can also go by anchor tenants, key tenants, and draw tenants.

Fun fact about Sears, they also had a catalogue where they sold homes. My parents own a Sears home which is about 100 years old
