Transcript

Panel 1

August has just finished downloading a game that he's been looking forward to playing. Unfortunately, he also has to get to work so he doesn't have time to playing it right now. On his computer screen is the notice that the download is complete and an option to tip "15%", "30%", or "50%".

August (thinking): I've been waiting for this game forever. I'll play it after work.

Panel 2

It's later in the evening and August is making dinner. He's putting some onions in a pot and thinking about his new game. As much as he'd like to be playing right now, they got to eat and he promised his son one of his favorite dinners.

August (thinking): I'll play it after dinner.

Gustopher: TACO SOUP! TACO SOUP!

Panel 3

Dinner is done but August is exhausted. He goes to bed and his two cats have quickly settled in for sleep. August thinks about his game but he just doesn't have the energy for it.

August (thinking): Too tired... I'll play it later.

Panel 4

August is woken up by his to cats touching his face and meowing for food. He'd like to play his new game, but there's things that have to be done and he has to get to work.

August: I'll play it after work... Eventually.

Nougat: Maw (possibly meaning "Excuse me good sir, but I find myself in a most peckish state and it be pleasing if you could find it fit to fill my dining bowl with your most delicious of food morsels. I apologize for waking you in this most undignified manner but it is imperative that I dine soon I fear that I might perish from this foul hunger.")

Mewbert: Mew (possibly meaning "FEED ME! NOW!")

Fear not, the content update is free on Switch 1 as well!

The only things exclusive to S2 are updated graphics, mouse controls, mic/camera compatibility, and 12-player multiplayer (up from 8).

I can hardly believe it either. Microsoft certainly has been making some choices lately, and I don't feel bad about letting my game pass sub lapse at the end of this week.

Inspired by @minovskyarticle.bsky.social getting into MtG and enjoying bird cards, I've created this extremely loose and silly primer on all the color identities.

The key art for Dispatch, by AdHoc Studio. The protagonist, dispatcher Robert Robertson, is using a bathroom urinal between two superheroes also at urinals on both sides of him. The "Dispatch" logo is on the right in front of the bathroom stalls in Bold white text, and the "A" is replaced with a bright yellow cape with a blue star on it.

First two episodes of Dispatch were very good! A colorful cast of characters with amazing animation and voice talent, and really hits my nostalgia for old Telltale Games narrative and storytelling. My only gripe is they went by so quick, but I can't wait for the rest of them in the coming weeks!

I understand donating to a database hub to keep their servers alive and allow them to continue implementing features, I've done that for Wikipedia, Scryfall, and Moxfield.

But forcing it to combat adblockers is aggressive.

From the Larchives: The Rocky Horus Picture Scroll. One of my favorite works. I had the assistance of an Egyptology PhD student to translate the Time Warp phonetically. Enjoy :)
