My book is out in the US today. It’s about a group of exceptional immigrants imprisoned without charge or trial by the British government in an atmosphere of anti-migrant national paranoia, whipped up by tabloid newspapers. For clarity, it’s set in the nineteen-forties.

I’m somewhat obsessed with Tim Rogers’ critical stylings. Amazingly in-depth five-hour reviews of video games, like ‘boku no natsuyasami’, with total mastery of medium. Who or what is the Action Button of architecture and urbanism criticism? youtu.be/779coR-XPTw

I am absolutely shocked, horrified, and disappointed that such an absolute meisaku book exists and I didn't know about it until now. Its like someone stole a sample of my hair, sequenced my DNA, and then created a targeted book specifically targeting me

This is a great book…very well documented with lots of info and writing that cross references and links the histories of the huge amount of computers that have been documented.

"This 250-page tome is as much an insight into development as it is a coffee table book with pretty pictures – and it *is* a coffee table book with pretty pictures..."

Remembering that time a helicopter blade knocked me off the backseat of a motorbike in GTA IV.
