My house burned down, and I lost all my physical media, but since everything was on Game Pass, I never really thought about my lack of ownership. It's weird to realize I don't own any Halo after buying so many.

Recently cancelled Game Pass and I was weirdly shocked to realize I don't digitally own any Halo games.

I want to play Fable 2 again. I miss Blood Stone.

I might be the odd one out, but I don't want to see Peter Griffin running around in my Mil Sim.

I have been saying this for years, but the conversation has finally come up again.

I would pay a one time micro-transaction to not see anyone's unique skin in online games.

I'm going to make an environmentally friendly alternative to ChatGPT. When you have a question, it will simply connect you to a stoned college kid who will make up an answer.

I'll call it ChatTHC.

Should be about as reliable as the current model.

In case anyone was wondering, building interconnected systems for a city builder is actually difficult. Who could have known?

My main project is taking way longer than I would like to make. So, now I'm skimming my backlog of ideas looking for something that I can make in a day or two to get a dopamine hit.

We just don't make TV shows with high stakes dinner parties riddled with hijinks anymore, and what a fucking shame.

So this character is a loud-mouthed tech billionaire control freak who wears tight t-shirts and loves inserting himself into disasters he doesn't understand? Cool. I'm sure that isn't based on anymore in particular.

I've heard it looks like a game from 2006, which is great for me since I still play some games from 2006.

Theory: Randy Pitchford has a slight leg up in the industry because it would be impossible to turn down a pitch meeting with someone by that name.

Entry #21 from my Idea Graveyard:

Act as a humble farmer building more and more elaborate traps to stop heros from entering your house and breaking all your pots.

I think the audio book I just abandoned was narrated by AI, but I can't prove it.

Now I feel like a New England settler sure that his neighbor is cavorting with the devil. Kent Klineman has sold his soul to Robot Satan and should be shunned.

This is a fun fact. Every time I post a screen shot I have to ask myself if my game really is that ugly and dull.
