Kode Kaldwin 🦇

Still going for afternoon walks through the neighbourhood most days btw 🌳

I ate a delicious sandwich and I drank a nice cup of coffee and I have packages coming in the mail so I will be okay.

I want to be a Hollow Knight stan so bad because yapping annoying about Silksong seems so fun.

Every so often the universe smiles upon us.

The Alters has taught me that I am absolutely correct to never want to work in HR.

Every other week there’s some version of the ‘is this age too old to enjoy this thing’ tweet and literally shut up, we are all hurtling towards death and nothingness, be buried with your Pokémon cards and plushies like an Egyptian pharaoh if you want. It’s fine.

There are people in my life who speak negatively about me maintaining my workout routine no matter what and how much of a hater do you have to be to see someone fighting to curb the symptoms of a chronic condition and talk badly of them.

Bumping the Beastie Boys anthology and a BPM of 201 when it came to the hill sprints 🪵

At first I was concerned when they announced a new Hellraiser game because I’ve grown weary of asymmetrical horror, but then they confirmed it’s single player, and it’s available on a platform I own, and there’s a physical copy.

Returned 36 messages in the space of five minutes and feel more winded than when I ran a marathon in a mid May heatwave.

I like when first person games add third person modes.

🌿📖

I hate when my phone tells me my camera roll is full and that I have to delete things because how am I supposed to say goodbye to the vaguely blurry picture of a deer I saw or this one tree that I thought looked nice in the rain.

Are we mostly agreed that an Atreus game would be cool but we would still like Kratos games in rotation? Okay, cool.

Picked the wrong day to break in new running sneaks and not wear a jacket 🌿

Watched The Brothers Grimm (2005) for the first time and while ridiculously corny the set and costume designs are exactly what my 12 year old brain used to picture when reading fantasy books during fall break.

It’s been over HALF A DECADE since the new Blade movie was announced. Stake it through the heart, it’s done. It’s over.

Just hanging out. Scrapbooking, making ham and cheese paninis, enjoying blueberry muffins, restarting animal crossing etc ☕️

Returned from battle defeated (didn’t get a treat from the store)

I think every sci-fi game has confirmed to me that space is really cool and I absolutely do not and will not ever belong up there.

Would have drank the poison in Drop (2025) just to get away from that waiter.

Imagining the pizza orders my alters would have.

What is the trick to being able to rest without feeling crippling amounts of guilt? How do you not feel shame when you try and relax for an hour or two? What do you do when you’ve lost the ability to enjoy peace?

I know a Nintendo Switch 2 and Donkey Kong Bananza won’t fix what’s wrong with me but it would provide temporary relief.

A short ‘mental health’ walk before lunch and the latest thunderstorm is due 🌳

Waking up even more depressed than usual on a weekend is really something.

Amazon aren’t fulfilling my Shadow Labyrinth preorder for another month at the earliest. And stores around me have no copies available for pickup. As always the battle for physical media continues.

The type of thing I mean when I say I’m booked and busy over the weekend.

Been getting really into after dinner walks around the neighborhood wearing my Dad sneakers and admiring the various hanging baskets and chalk drawings the kids have been doing on driveways.

I would like for Techland to clarify their “cool options being looked at” comment regarding physical copies of Dying Light The Beast so I know whether or not to plan for disappointment or joy.
