Retro Game Spotlight 091: Robot Tank (1983)
Publisher: Activision Platform: Atari 2600 Designer: Alan Miller
Trivia: Similar in design to Atari's Battlezone, but with a number of unique features such as varying degrees of damage and different environmental conditions, Activision's Robot Tank is one of the few Atari 2600 games that are incompatible with the Atari 7800.

Wednesday Album Review: Rat Saw God
Tumblr media
(Dead Oceans)
BY JORDAN MAINZER
In a minute and a half, Wednesday reveal their palate and ethos. “Hot Rotten Grass Smell”, the opening track to their incredible new album Rat Saw God, immediately juxtaposes country guitars with shoegaze squall. Songwriter/vocalist/guitarist Karly Hartzman references Smog’s “The Well” before turning inward to a bleak vision: “Your closet froze after you left / Except the people who took your shirts / Closed off your door with yellow tape / Saw myself dead at the end of a staircase.” The song ends with a sudden cut to field recordings of peepers. Heartbreak, anxiety, life, death, both the natural environment and the concrete depression of the South. It’s all there for Hartzman’s poetry, and no moment is too small or too ordinary for worship.
Hartzman’s a true blue country singer, combining Angel Olsen’s crying wail with Lucinda Williams’ deadpan drawl, and she sports the observational prowess to match. The band’s unique aesthetic, a combination of twangy indie rock with overwhelming fuzz, spans eras of music and only serves to emphasize the universality and perennial nature of her themes. If on the band’s previous album Twin Plagues, Hartzman first practiced putting her vulnerabilities to tape, she’s doubly honest on Rat Saw God. “The racecar driver died on TV / I ran like hell into the burning house / It’d been too long since I had felt the sting,” she sings on “Got Shocked”, a reminder that feeling is living. On the same song, a cricket jumps behind a fridge and stays there for two days. You’re forced to ask yourself, “Who would I rather be?” Yet, songs like “Formula One” and “Chosen To Deserve”--the former using the same car racing motif--occupy different spaces of the heart. They’re sweet dedications to her partner, Wednesday guitarist MJ Lenderman, whose nasally backup vocals beautifully complement Hartzman’s coos on “Formula One”, whose riffs (along with Xandy Chelmis’ prickly pedal steel) propel Hartzman “tellin’ you all my worst” on “Chosen to Deserve”. “If you’re lookin’ for me / I’m in the back of an SUV / Doin’ it in some cul-de-sac / Underneath a dogwood tree,” Hartzman hilariously declares on “Chosen to Deserve”, wearing her warts not like badges of honor but as simply and sincerely formative parts of her past. 
Wednesday expertly build tension alongside Hartzman’s stories, a necessary representation of how bad things compound in real life. On “Turkey Vultures”, an increasingly desperate narrator tries to create deeper meaning from tragedy; Alan Miller’s drums gradually change tempo until the song pummels, Lenderman’s guitars squealing with pain. “Bull Believer” follows a similar pattern, albeit over an epic 8 and a half minutes. It’s a song about watching someone succumb to addiction, or the desire for a merciful end to the worst, but just like bull in a bullfight, it’s often death by a million stabs. As Hartzman recalls watching someone play Mortal Kombat, she cleverly chants the game’s famous catchphrase, “Finish him!”, but dragged out to a squirming length, as she lets out piercing out-of-breath screams and cries. It’s the type of catharsis that allows her, emotionally exhausted, to look at the fictional characters of “Quarry”, or the real person who overdosed in a Dollywood parking lot on “Bath County”, with zero judgement, just as much empathy as Bill Callahan before her.
That Rat Saw God ends with the unassuming road song “TV in the Gas Pump” is entirely fitting. The titular object “blares into the dark.” What could be more plain? Life goes on, minutiae are at once endlessly boring on the surface, limitlessly interesting if you stop for a moment. Wednesday implore us to observe and share.

My AO3 year in review,
Tumblr media Tumblr media Tumblr media
Breaking the Rules was my first, not so well planned series that I ever wrote. Lots of plot holes and my writing was nowhere near as refined as it is now. But it's something to look back on fondly enough. It's DBF!Joel so I'm wholly unsurprised with it taking top spot.
Mine, being 2nd and 3rd; and Miggy Please, being 3rd and 4th respectively by hits then kudos is a real joy for me to see. My Miguel content doesn't get much love on here so I'm glad they both got some love on AO3.
Sex with Strangers is another set of Joel Miller Smut, so again not surprised it's up there at 5th in hits.
Hazy Days is one of my favorourite Din Djarin fics I've written, just because I love me some sex pheromones. So again, very pleased to see that at 2nd in kudos and 4th in hits.
Crossfire has gotten a lot of attention due to season 2 of Reacher releasing a few weeks ago. It's sloppy and wonderful and just PWP and I'm ok with that. I might write more Reacher stuff in the future when my WIP pile is not so monstrous lol. Nice to see it squeeze in there at 5th for kudos.
So yeah, after almost 12 years out from writing, it's nice to see some hard statistics to see how far I've come this year. I'll always be on AO3 if Tumblr ever decides to finally die, and I've got other socials, including potentially setting up a Discord server at some point.
This post is more for my own tracking? Reflection? Something like that.
Can't wait to do one of these next year!
Thank you to everyone who has supported me in my return to this wonderful way of expression!
