What if certain games never happened, never came into existence? What would the ripple effect be?

So my wife just casually informed me that today marks 12 years of @player2au.bsky.social.
Who would have thought that after all of these years, I still wouldn't know what the fuck I am doing?

God fucking damn,
It is a legitimate goal of mine to one day get a book published, something I am working hard to do. It is something that I need to do for me, to let me be creative, to feel a sense of accomplishment, even if no one reads it. Without that, what is the goddamn fucking point.
What a weird thing to come out in the year 2026.

Tonight the lamb hater (my wife) is away so the lamb lovers (everyone else) come out to play.
Lamb kebabs using rotisserie lamb leg.
Deboned the leg and seasoned with a mix of paprika, garlic, pepper, salt and a touch sumac
Seriously. This thing is bloody massive.

I'm not saying it will be as bad as that (not a high bar) but more it seems to be promising everything and there is a massive chance they under deliver as a result.
I hope I am wrong but my spider-sense is tingling
