Today, on February 4th, 1991 - Queen Story!
"Innuendo" released in the UK
fourteenth studio album, entered UK chart at No1 (all songs are credited to Queen)
🔸"I’m pleased with my vocals on this album. Innuendo is a word I often use in Scrabble – I’m a demon at Scrabble!
For Queen, it’s a perfect title"
- Freddie Mercury
🔸Brian May: “Freddie said, ‘Write me stuff. I know I don’t have very long. Keep writing me words, keep giving me things – I will sing, and then you can do what you like afterwards and finish it off.”
🔸Producer Dave Richards added: “He was dying when he did those songs, and he knew he would be dead when they were finished because he said to me, ‘I’m going to sing it now because I can’t wait for them to do music on this. Give me a drum machine and they’ll finish it off.'”
(from 'Days of Our Lives' documentary)
🔸“A lot of people thought Freddie wrote “The Show Must Go On,” but mainly I wrote it,” May later said of the song about 20 years later. “I did a complete demo for “The Show Must Go On,” including that very high part, ‘on with the show.’ Freddie always used to say, ‘Oh Brian, you’re fucking making me tear my throat to bits again!’ I remember apologizing in advance. I said, ‘I’ve done this in falsetto, I don’t know if it’s possible to do it full voice. Obviously that would be great.’
“And he went, ‘Oh for God’s sake.’” He said, ‘Roll the tape’…and he went for that line, which is outstanding for him to reach those notes. He’s reaching heights he’s never done before. He’s finding the energy from somewhere. And the voice on “The Show Must Go On” is incredible. I’ve never heard anybody sing like that in my whole life. He rose to every challenge and seemed to reach heights that he’s never even reached before.”
- Brian May

Duke Nukem 3D (1996, 3D Realms)
Technically this is the 20th Anniversary World Tour version's GRP running in eDuke32 to fix basically all of that release's issues. No more baffling forced mouse acceleration and smoothing!
It's my favorite way to play Duke 3D now. The new lighting in every map is really, really nice.

Leaving my political views out of it... does this look like a familiar image to you? I hope the Mirror have paid some royalties to Richard Gray and Queen for nicking their concept...

Do you think Richard and Harold explored eachothers bodies?

Noticed something, now I am rotating this in my brain.
[Image ID: A screenshot from Detectives United: Origins. Richard Gray is speaking, and his dialogue is in a text box at the bottom. There is a wall next to Richard, and Dorian Brown sits in the back of the room. End ID]
Now, if we look to the wall to the side of Richard:
[Image ID: A zoomed-in portion of the previous screenshot. It shows a dartboard. Underneath are scores from James and Brown. Brown is winning. The scores are circled in light purple. There are no darts on the board. End ID]
So I didn't take a screenshot of it, but the scores are, of course, not there when that Anna segment of the game starts.
This shows us that life goes on, even while Anna's in the past. Details from other games imply that James and Dorian can remember things from the timelines that Anna undoes.
And then, of course, there is this scene from Detectives United: Timeless Voyage.
[Image ID: A screenshot from Detectives United: Timeless Voyage. James and Dorian are tied up next to each other. A bomb is visible to the side. Anna's dialogue is at the bottom of the screen, and she is saying "Give me a second! My hands are tied!". End ID]
...So. It's shown in a moment, during the next minigame, that the bomb is close to blowing up.
Add to that the fact that time continues to progress while Anna is in the past, and the fact that James and Dorian may or may not remember the other timelines...
There is 100% a timeline where Dorian and James get blown up by the bomb, and given the laws of the world there is a distinct possibility that they remember blowing up.
