At this point everything I’ve said is being taken out of context. I apologize for entering the conversation from what has been now construed as a place of negativity. Meant no harm, just offered another perspective. I’m being insulted by other followers of yours so I’ll leave it. Ty for the convo.

Practice what you preach. Stop playing video games. Gather your own coffee beans. Working and contributing to society is bad? Stop enjoying the fruits of other people’s labor, then.

Tone deaf is engaging in capitalism every day but acting like a hero because you put strangers down on the internet.

You’re making some big assumptions about me there. Being thankful I’m physically able to support myself and loved ones doesn’t equate to “thankful to spend every waking moment working.” Enjoy your coffee and video game addiction, Matt. People work every day to provide you with those things.

Also, I’m not suggesting capitalism is a perfect system. It’s not. Greed exists, and that sucks. I guess I don’t understand what alternative there is at this point. Going back in progress to hunter/gatherer societies? The fact is, many luxuries we all enjoy in life are the result of work.

That’s kind of my point. Some people aren’t able to work, and I feel blessed that I am capable of doing so. Complaining about working when some people can’t support themselves because they lack the physical or mental capability to do so feels backwards.

Eh. I consider being physically and mentally capable of working 40 hours per week to fund my lifestyle, hobbies, interests, and provide for those I love to be a blessing. Most things I enjoy in life are the result of someone else’s work, so I appreciate that. Without work, many things don’t exist.

Happy Birthday, Uncle Derek. You’re one of my favorite people on the internet and have been since 2008. Keep keeping it real and treat yourself to a good burger today 🍔🫶

Not worrying about the price of games is how we end up closing the doors of the hobby and later the profession to an entire class, and one that further harms diversity efforts.

Is Craig still drinking raw milk? How’s that going for him?

Just finally got one to use Libby. I’m stoked about it!

I built a Playstacean!

Bluesky is just much more enjoyable than Twitter. And really it has nothing to do with Elon, politics, whatever. I’ve been on Twitter since 2009. Bluesky feels how Twitter felt years ago - simple and fun to use. Twitter lost that along the way (plenty of issues existed pre-Elon btw). Bluesky FTW!

I feel like I’m going crazy reading these comments to this post. Everybody talking about needing Nintendo Power or GameFAQs guides. Like what? OOT is super linear and the game gives you direction the entire way through.

Of all the older Zelda games to find confusing, OOT is an interesting choice. It’s a very linear, straightforward experience. A Link to the Past or Link’s Awakening for example (also very popular early Zelda titles) are way more confusing. Majora’s Mask as a sequel to OOT is also much more cryptic.

Final Fantasy IX.

So do I spend keys on Starbrand? I’m torn.

The artwork prints from @rianbowart.com arrived the other day and they look BEAUTIFUL. They’ve now been framed and hung up in my wife’s office (@applekrisp.bsky.social). Thank you for your art, Rian!

But I thought the whole point of the trade request was wanting to win. Not $$$.

A few of my latest drawings:

6th in PPG last season, while defense ranked 25th. That’s with Tee Higgins missing 5 games. Priorities seem a little off there, Bengals.

A truly timeless game. I played it in 2024 and it’s aged incredibly well. A masterpiece in survival horror.

Sort of a slight nerf to Fenris also, right? Since the card destroyed will no longer be in the destroyed pile.

Having a great time playing Monster Hunter Wilds. I’m completely new to the series, so some of the mechanics and systems are a bit confusing at first but the combat is so fun and satisfying. Looking forward to more!
