Standard Lithium’s Equity Offering: A $130M Etiquette Disaster

by

Standard Lithium owns a lithium operation stretching across East Texas and Arkansas-a venture that recently benefited from the government’s “critical materials” panic.

by

Bennett Foddy, the creator of famously difficult games like *QWOP* and *Getting Over It*, is known for deliberately making frustrating experiences. His new game, *Baby Steps*, continues this tradition. Players have found that skipping cutscenes can trigger a punishment: a single, unskippable cutscene lasting a full 28 minutes.

John Carpenter Executive Producing New Horror Anthology Series

by

Michael Amo (known for *Pure* and *The Listener*) and Will Pascoe (*Orphan Black*) will lead the creative team on *John Carpenter Presents*. This Canadian series aims to capture the look and feel – including the music – of John Carpenter’s films. Carpenter famously composed the scores for almost all of his movies, like *Halloween* and *The Thing*, not only creating iconic characters like Michael Myers but also the memorable music linked to them. The series will be structured like *American Horror Story*, with each season telling one complete story, rather than being an episodic anthology similar to *The Twilight Zone*.

by

Writer Rob Shearman (known for the 2005 episode “Dalek” and other related works) shared his thoughts in *Doctor Who Magazine* (as noted by *Den of Geek*).
