I played New Vegas and then took a nap.
Was thinking about checking out Bojack. I've been watching Workaholics. That show is just crazy.

Some of the articles I wrote have been published on http://plus10damage.com Look for the ones written by Joe Step.
Watched Bojack Horseman's first episode today. Seems ok so far. Gonna keep watching. Bit cynical for my tastes, but then Louie is kind of cynical and I think that show is brilliant. So far, Bojack is quite typical adult cartoon fare. I've also been rewatching Arrested Development's first few episodes. That show is hilarious. Too bad my family hated it when it was airing and refused to let me watch it at dinner We tended to talk and watch TV as a family when I was younger while also eating dinner; that is unless someone got the bullshit new-agey idea to just talk as a family instead. Just awful.
I also caught the season finale of Legend of Korra and still can't wait for the video game. Minor spoilers: Henry Rollins as a cartoon flies and puts people in wheelchairs? More of that, please.
And aside from napping, that's about what I've been up to. What about you?
On the article about black video games avatars "insiting" violence, I would add from personal experience playing a little San Andreas on Xbox that I never felt the things described on the article or your post. I played some of the game while not doing reckless arson or car slaughter and when violence was necessary for a mission, it was as "normal" as I do my shooting in Halo, I never felt like CJ insited me something. Then again, I do sandbox games carefully and try to avoid as much violence as posible, even if it defeats the whole porpuse. At the same time, in Colombia GTA was pretty much a video game staple and mostly what guys (and kids) did was rampage, but it didn't matter which GTA so long as it was GTA.
On the Avatar article describing digital media, I welcome digital as it is handy for things that are hard to buy physically, it's necessary for space porpuse and the warranty (though not exactly aplied to everything....). However, I don't really give up on physical, if only because I like to collect things and the for the cosmetics, though there's also the fact that not everything is online. I'd be also interested in what the future shows.
I watched to post "end of world" movies on netflix. The first one being Goodbye World, the second one being the Spanish The Last Days. Goodbye World had an interesting plot but unlikable characters. Not worthly to survive the end of civilization.
The Last Days was odd given how people all over the world suffered from sever agrophobia.
I couldn't finish any of them given how annoying the characters were in both movies.
