Just realized that due to aging and the changing timeframe of nostalgia, we’re not that far from @digitaleclipse.bsky.social giving its extraordinary treatment to something, like, the Army Men series.

I know I’m going out on a limb here, but…

Fleetwood Mac’s β€œRumours” is a pretty good album.

It’s not often that one gets to proclaim a heretofore uncommented-upon human truth:

The volume of a ringtone is inversely proportional to the reflex speed of its owner.

Really puts it into perspective: Peter Bjorn and John’s β€œYoung Folks” was released closer to the building of the Great Pyramids than to today.

P4 redone with the advancements made with P5 (many of which admittedly sprung from P4G)? <drool with anticipation>

@apstylebook.com was wrong to cave on differentiating β€œless” and β€œfewer.”

Why haven’t we progressed as a civilization to the point where I can buy a single-flavor box of Fla-Vor-Ice popsicles? I don’t want to have to go through β€œgrape” and β€œorange” to get to Red, the Diana Ross of the Fla-Vor-Ice Supremes.

Hopefully Nintendo uses its June Direct to reveal the 10th anniversary remaster of β€œDevil’s Third” we’ve been clamoring for.

Such a beautiful day, I got off my bus two miles early and walked, with just the sun and Bob Marley in my ears to keep me company.

Why isn’t there a Persona- or SMT-themed Picross game yet?

Devoted my podcast listening the last few weeks to going backwards through old @p1podcast.com review quiz Aftershows just to find the one with @whimsicalphil.bsky.social’s β€œBatman as an illusionist” impression.

#668, if anyone’s wondering.

Sadly doesn’t come with LEGO minifigs of Anita Ekberg and Marcello Mastroianni.

I’ve finished Tomb Raider (2013) a number of times of the past decade, but only today noticed in the credits that Cory β€œGod of War” Barlog and Toby β€œHe created Lara Croft” Gard handled the cinematic.

The parade of useless tech-in-search-of-a-problem and rampant VC yes-man-ing has basically driven the Western tech industry into the ground. It's so embarrassing. I can't allow myself to think about where that funding could have gone or else I'd lose my mind

REMEMBER: If you're giving a game console as a gift this Christmas, open it up BEFORE Christmas morning, plug it in, install all the required updates, THEN buy and install Tetris Forever, THEN put it back in the box and wrap it up
