Yeah. Visiting the graves and the saying hello to the survivors is next I think.

And roll credits.

An excellent ending. A couple of unexpected yet thoroughly welcome turns.

An all time classic.

Worth watching the highlights. That arena hasn’t been that loud for a decade.

I’ve now built John a house and the Story counter says 94%. So it’s bound to get burned down or something.

Going to finish the story and then mop up stuff. I know where Arthur is so could head that way.

The Goonies. I wanted to be a Goonie and go on Adventures.* The lead character even had my name and had asthma like me!

Watched it as an adult and.. oh boy. So much shouting. So much annoyance. You want to drown half of them.

*So much so that I've been to the Goonies house in Astoria

i think that one of the things that nobody in the mainstream talks about (yes i know we complain about it on here all the time if you think this is the mainstream oh boy) is how successfully politicians have divested themselves of any responsibility for anything at all

Yeah, it’s got a great groove to it.

The one where she listens to “Bulls on Parade” is really good as well.

Getting incredibly smug after watching some of the other Clarets pods/YouTubes/forum threads after the Everton game and many comments are almost exactly the same word for word as I said in December 2024.

Despite appearances, I'm not an idiot. I just play one on the internet.

Jess Bowen Hears “Du Hast” For The First Time YouTube video by Drumeo

Seen a few of these now. Incredibly talented drummer listens to a track for the first time sans drums and have to come up with what they think it would be.

Even if they don't get it right, you end up thinking "Oh, that sounds really good".

Into the Epilogue Part II. Dunno whether to finish the storyline (says 89%) or go off and do other stuff. I've had a bank loan* and in real life I could go pick up the last missing treasure and pay the thing off. I suspect that will not be allowed.

Cluely CEO Roy Lee admits to publicly lying about revenue numbers last year | TechCrunch The $7 million in annual recurring revenue that Cluely CEO Roy Lee shared last summer was a lie, its founder and CEO Roy Lee admitted on Thursday on X.

Who could possibly have predicted that a company whose slogan is "cheat on everything" would cheat?

It is a hell of a place. The contrast between that building and the slave quarters next to it has to be seen to be believed.

Braithwaite Manor as shown in Red Dead Redemption 2. A gorgeous plantation building with columns. The real Oak Valley Plantation in Louisiana The tree-lined route approaching Oak Valley Plantation in Louisiana

As an aside, I knew something was familiar while I was playing through the game..

Braithwaite Manor, or in real life, Oak Valley Plantation Louisiana.

Was there in January 2023.

When it comes to eight teams in the EFL playoffs, I'm with Danny Baker.

Go the whole hog. 20 team division, 10 go up, 10 go down. Arsenal one bad season away from playing Cheltenham.
