I think at times like these, when someone important dies, it's good to stop and reflect on how they made you happy.
Rest in peace, Japanese racehorse Haru Urara. You didn't win any of your 113 races, but at least you kept trying. The true embodiment of perseverance. And you never hired a bunch of buses to ship people into Washington DC for the January 6th insurrection, or run a giant propaganda company. You were, by far, the most beloved being to die this week.
The Atari 2600 is 47 years old. For the first few years it was sold as the Atari Video Computer System or Atari VCS, but it will always be the 2600 to me. My first console, I spent maybe thousand of wonderful hours playing games on it.
Happy 59th Anniversary Star Trek. Hope you get here soon.
