WH40Keri

Fighting tears in a team meeting as it's the last team meeting with @ryfichannel.bsky.social. He's been a part of my work life since 2004, when we were at Kombo together. I can't imagine coming in to the office next week without him being right there. Going to miss him terribly. 😭😭😭

With the announcement of Halo: Campaign Evolved, my eldest son said, hey we should play that together. My beloved son, I can only play the Library level so many times. In fact, I've played it twice, the second time thinking, surely it's not so bad. IT IS.

Pass.

So as I'm looking in my Switch backlog to see what I should play before buying anything new, should I play Collar x Malice or Variable Barricade? #otome

Well, I tried!

For me can you root for the Packers? 😁🧀

So I finally played Cafe Enchante, an #otome I've had in my library for a while. This is honestly the first otome I've ever played where I liked NONE of the routes. None of them had a *real* happy ending. So disappointed after all the hype.

I had a student come to my yoga class this morning that I haven't seen since COVID. I joked that she was there just for me, but she said not only was she there for me, but she had been trying to find me for a couple of years. Completely made my day. 🥰🥰🥰

Currently playing Gakuen Club, because I bought it years ago and I'm trying to go through my backlog before I buy new stuff. As much as I was annoyed that this otome has set routes at the beginning, darn it if I don't get suckered into each one of these stories. Dangit.

But I have a degree in journalizmszsz

It's been a looong time since I've played any otome games, but I've gotten back into it thanks to the Switch 2. I've been replaying some, playing the second seasons of some, and I've started a couple I bought and never started. Hoo boy the differences are so stark. Almost wish I was back in writing.

After I finished Paper Mario: Origami King over the weekend, my first thought was to text @pressthebuttons.bsky.social and tell him I beat my very first Mario game so he could mock me and we'd laugh together. And then I remembered I no longer could do so and got very, very sad. 😭

Just finished Paper Mario: Origami King. What a really fun and surprisingly emotional game! Also, I didn't know I needed a cranky Bowser team-up with Mario until now. I give it two folded thumbs up.

Why is it the dogs only need to go outside when I'm in the middle of a boss fight?

After 614 days, I used my first Streak Freeze in Duolingo. Maybe I can make it another 614 days.

Yesterday I lost power for a few hours due to bad thunderstorms, so I decided to use the time to clean up and clean out my office. I finally tossed my DDR pad for the PS2.

Wooooo free cold foam at #Starbucks today! 😋

Never been happier to be OUT of the gaming industry. aftermath.site/gamurs-escap...

After playing #Avowed, it inspired me to hop back into #PillarsofEternity. @obsidianent.bsky.social really went all in with building this incredible world. Really enjoying my time, even though I wish I had picked back up my original PC version instead of playing on console.

Friend shared this and I'm pretty sure this is the best thing I'll see all day.

Oookay, so WH40k in 290 characters or less it is then.
<takes deep breath>

Have you played Space Marine 1 or 2?

You rang?

I have a work trip coming up in a few weeks. It dawned on me that the last work trip I went on was to LA in 2019 for the Mortal Kombat 11 event. I somehow doubt this one will be as entertaining.

I love my comics crew. I did not have "learning that Skrulls are the gateway to alien sex" on my Bingo card for today.

While walking back from jury duty (wasn't picked!), I saw these historical markers and learned a bit more dark history about Dallas. NGL, got a little teary from reading these.

Regardless, glad to see and hear you're doing so well. I knew you were going to surpass everyone at Kombo with your video demonstration on using the Wii Remote as pseudo-VR with the camera and motion controls.

See now I'll have to show him you follow me to prove we were once BFFs 🤣🤣🤣

Probably the first time he's ever been impressed with who I knew during my time in the gaming industry. Thanks @jeffgrubb.bsky.social, for letting me claim you from the Kombo days once again. 🤣🤣🤣

Over the weekend, my eldest was watching something on YouTube, and the video referenced @jeffgrubb.bsky.social. I said oh hey, it's Grubbles! My son turned to me and said, "YOU KNOW JEFF GRUBB?" Oh my son, I used to edit his stuff back when he was briefly a nobody. 😆
