Being an older sibling who liked rpgs was rough. I spent a lot of my video game time being forced into co-op with a whiny younger brother and/or unsportsmen like dad

(This is literally the main reason why I care more about lore in fighting games, I joke that competitiveness was bred out of me ๐Ÿค)

You know, just thinking about this story makes me think of how much shovelware, my brother and I would have had to deal with if we were younger and coming up in the 7th gen era (Wii, PS3) there was shovelware back when I was coming up, but not to the prolific amounts the Wii had.

For instance, I never got video games for my birthday unless I specifically asked for it and was very clear about what I wanted. (I literally drew a picture of the earthbound box from my mom)

I think I may have enjoyed more genres than the ones that I had access to if most of the video games that were bought for the household we're just "games that the whole family would play"

My video game tastes were not the focus for household games I don't blame my parents for this.

I was musing to myself the other day, whether I would still like the genres of video games that I do If I didn't have to be a big sister as well. (For instance, would I enjoy the 3D collectathon so much if I didn't have to help my younger sibling with hard platforming challenges?)

I remember relatives speaking about about the 'spinsters' in the family with hushed voices about how sad it was they never married/had kids.

Never the same remorseful tones when speaking about the 'forever bachelors' in the family.

1. It was not an accident.
2. It was not a staffer.
3. While the president may have dementia his racism is not due to dementia.
4. He isnโ€™t sorry. He means every racist thought he shares.
5. His base agrees with him.
6. He will do it again.
7. No one in power will hold him accountable.

My poor Sonic comic retrospective has been on "am I still going to do this" for years, part of my delay is a want to do a complete re-read.

Go back, read the comic, talk about it.

And I feel like its been way too long since the last re-read anyways.

Ahhh, 2020 is when the Sonic movie came out.

I just remember being so relieved that Sonic didn't look like... how they first showed him. ๐Ÿ˜ฎโ€๐Ÿ’จ

( I'm not posting a picture, but let's just say there would not be three of those movies if he still looked like that)

This is a very familar sentiment that I have seen and felt over the years. Haha I wonder what I had seen or heard that time that sparked this post ๐Ÿค”

Same, I've also been working on art for the first time in ages and its a constant struggle of trying to "trust the process" during the ugly stages ๐Ÿ˜จ

At Magfest we tried recreating a Final Fantasy VIII cosplay picture we took twenty four years ago, dear God ๐Ÿ˜–

Ahhh damn I couldn't make it down to the booth ๐Ÿ˜ฎโ€๐Ÿ’จ

But I feel you on the old/pain.

I have never resonated so much with those " let's take ibuprofen together" memes ๐Ÿ˜…

I hope you and T are good and hope to actually catch yall next time

Okay, okay, I'm not ready for my mushy Magfest post yet but I mush to express.

I met a mom who was there, it was her first Magfest/convention, her first time cosplaying (Hatsune Miku) and she was there with daughter and grandkids.

That was one cool ass family ๐Ÿ’–
I hope to see her cosplay again ๐Ÿ˜Š

When I predict, with 100% accuracy where a game is going plotwise, I don't sneer at the game. I remember that I've literally played RPGs my entire life and tropes are a thing ๐Ÿ’–

Haha, I had caught a cold and I think that was the first time in my life I was sick over Christmas.
It was rainy and miserable,
I already had to forego decorations due to other stuff
it was a sort of drab and sad holiday.

I hope next year I'll at least eat like 4 candy canes ๐Ÿ’

Yesterday a friend and I were talking about fanfic/shipping and I explained my like pet like of 'curiosity ships'

Not crack ships since those are just random. No rhyme or reason just two random characters.

Curiosity ships have proximity within their media.
