Hah, you're welcome!

FFS being my common reaction helps me remember.

Yeah, the odd couple vibes of a lopporit with an omicron worked well for me. I muted that zone's music, though.

One of my favorite allied society quest lines.

Everyone give @shineyezehuhh.bsky.social a round of applause for their journalism

Rosemary thyme and parmesan scones fresh out of the oven, resting on a rack.

Rosemary thyme and parmesan scones are probably my most used baking recipe at this point. My sense of smell (and taste) thank me.

I came back briefly after OW2 launched, and as primary support, followed by tank, just didn't gel with it. Keep hoping I hear about that improving, but so far just haven't felt compelled to return.

all the negative reviews of the star trek voyager game are like "i dont get it, its really slow and boring! it stinks!" and all the positive reviews are like "its exactly like star trek voyager, its really slow and boring. it rocks!!"

Sex mini-games online?

Screenshot from Marvel's Midnight Suns, Deadpool in front of a portal with captions of him saying, "I've never been so happy to see a shiny blue hole. Oh, except for the time I met Ronan the Accuser. It's beautiful."

Finally finished Midnight Suns DLC's story, and Deadpool continued having me laugh. Deadpool can be hit or miss for me, but he's the pan-disaster he should be here.

A screenshot from the game Control. Dylan Faden says, "Baby, baby, baby, yeah." He wears a grey sweatshirt that says P6.

Caught up to where I was last time I played Control and abandoned after annoyance with combat in the Alan Wake DLC. I realize I love telekinesis but hate the guns in this game. Forgot how short everything is (especially when aggressive because I'm immortal).

A blueberry Pączki on a plate.

Pączki this year was from the bakery close to me. Blueberry (pictured), raspberry, and cream. Nice to have a few different options.

Tonight’s dumb napkin cartoon…

One of my go-to pastries is a rosemary and thyme scone. Always love smelling what that combo wafts through the apartment.

Loved Rogue Prince of Persia, so very on board for this.

That was the most frustrating part. Took me forever as one particular lock just had so much other dialog to get through before I reached the key dialog.

eXistenZ is a movie that anyone working in games should watch. Prescient in a lot of ways, it's also a story about a woman game designer who is getting chased by men who don't like how she designs games. (Yes, really.)

Nearing the end of Iain M Banks's Hydrogen Sonata and one of the things I love about the Culture series is when we get group chats and then people talking on the side shit-talking others in said group chat.

If it were customizable and I could turn it off, I'd be thrilled. I think my problem with the example here is that there was only one route, and I still had to have somebody apparently tell me I had to go in that direction.

A map in Metroid Prime 4. MacKenzie asks if I would like to hear that again?

Making my way through Metroid Prime 4 is mostly me grumbling at its hand holding and weird decisions. I didn't even want to hear it the first time, MacKenzie.

While this absolutely sucks, we are going to see a lot more places implementing universal global age verification over this next year, because the number of states and countries legally requiring it has gotten to the point no one can keep up anymore.

sorry i missed the virtual meeting on discord, liz. i got hit with the id verification that happens when the app detects youre young

Yeah, I just want my Jean Grey power fantasy while reading weird lore.

Screenshot from Control. Jesse Faden, a pull cord dangling to her right, stands staring at a painting that depicts her standing before an isolated room that has an illuminated box with a Bakelite phone ringing.

Restarting Control to finally tackle the DLC. Rather than deal with the headache that was incosistent difficulty in the game, just turned on immortality (and the Tommasi fight reminded me why this was a good idea). Also want to get to Alan Wake 2 before the Control sequel releases.

FDT blasted through my neighborhood the day it was announced he lost an election. I'll stick with that classic.

We spoke to queer Nigerian gamers about the identities they hide online Voice chat can mean teamwork, coordination, and banter, but for many of the queer Nigerian gamers we spoke to, the mic is a risk assessment tool.

Discussed this with my doctor this week even (not for me right now, but glad it exists ).

Featuring best protagonist Tremaine Valiarde. Yeah, she's a depressed playwright. She'll also mess you up badly and make a good team with a young guy from a sword and sorcery-esque alternate world.

Now that the streamily art competition has passed, I wanted to show off my own piece. It may not have won but I’m proud of it anyway! Just a man enjoying his first cup of coffee of the day on his brooding balcony after some morning exercises.
