So I've been watching a lot of Doctor Who recently, much of it stuff I haven't seen before and am very late to the party on. I wrote about some of it and mentioned I was a little guarded when initially watching Matt Smith's era begin due to not enjoying it as a child (though... Continue Reading →
Say what you want about who Ricky Gervais used to be to people, but today's Ricky Gervais seems to be just a bit of a grifter.

I've drafted this replay post about a dozen times because there are so many things to say about Morrowind that it is difficult to know where to start.
