News is breaking around the webiverse that infamous 3D Realms, the creators of the irreverent Duke Nukem series, has been shuttered. The followup to Duke Nukem 3D was originally announced back in 1997 and has now been vaporware for (doing the math) ~12 years. I've known at least two people who worked on that project at some point and the stories we've heard... wow.
I seriously doubt anyone will shed a thought about shedding a tear over this news, though it's always sad to see developers lose their jobs... it might just be time to move on, folks.

@alibakes Haywire is a sparse little covert thriller featuring a smooth jazz score. I can't think of anything else to say about it.

@dcorsetto For the record, I'm more grossed out by pooping. And war. War and pooping, mostly.

Twitter ran out of "who to follow" recommendations for me. I should probably turn the Internet off now.
