Tawny owl

Six weeks ago, I picked up a year-old tawny owl with a broken leg off the main road near our home and dropped him off at our nearest vet.

After a few days, I received one of the most bizarre phone calls I’ve ever had, asking “So when are you coming to pick up your owl?” 🧵

Trails in the Sky 1st Chapter – Unsophisticated Fight Once-in-a-lifetime dream remake (dreamake!) Trails in the Sky 1st Chapter should have been my perfect video game. It wasn't. Here I hope to process that disappointment and let it go. I've gone on record ad nauseam that The Legend of Heroes: Trails in the Sky was the video game that inspired me to tread my career path. Or maybe it's more accurate to call it the final push over a threshold I'd been approaching all my life.

Today on Astral City Mini, my hopes for a dream remake of Trails in the Sky are scattered to the winds. How and why did its new localization falter? I’ll tell you.

Various FFT jobs are depicted including White Mages, Knight, Mimic, Summoner, Time Mage, Dragoon, Chemist, Monk, and more.

Weekly Famitsu magazine featuring Final Fantasy Tactics: The Ivalice Chronicles.

Final Fantasy Tactics illustration by Delicious in Dungeon creator Ryoko Kui.

This issue of Famitsu arrives just in time for Tuesday’s release of FFT:TIC. I ordered it to see Ryoko Kui’s commemorative illustration, which does not disappoint. Love all the small details—the Chemist struggling to kick, the Summoner plotting, the Thief stealing the Monk’s heart… 💖

I also have advice. Everybody loves reading advice on the computer, so I'll share it: the best thing you can do right now is log off as hard as you can. Go outside, talk to people in real life where it's actually kind of rude to talk about the news, try to actually see the friends you usually just text message. Go for a long drive and turn the phone off while you do it. Get back into your hobbies or pick one and learn it for a while. Watch one of those studio movies that reviews called "wildly miscalculated" and you haven't seen since high school. Play an album you like but find embarrassing. Go to free community events even if they sound stupid. If you take the freeway, try the surface streets. Go to a bad diner and just order some bad coffee because even bad coffee is good coffee. You can't help anybody when you're exhausted and keep posting one million college-educated rewordings of "I would love to be dead right now" on the computer. Walk away from the thing and try out some of those normal things you hear about and if you get bored that's wonderful because we're not supposed to get bored anymore. It turns out boredom is the Cadillac of feelings.

Today I learned that my dear friend Andrew Dice, AKA SpaceDrake, has passed away. I owe my entire career as it is today to him, he was even a beloved member of the community for my streams. I'm trying to gather my thoughts on this but it's a really difficult piece of news for me to take so suddenly.

i had a dream about Metroid but all of Samus’s powerups were in the form of poodle skirts
