I think I'm going to start using StoryGraph again, now that it has better features to actually see what your friends are reading too. Anyone using it? 😊

Hope you got some time to breathe and rest! 🫂

Really looking forward to hearing your thoughts!

Thesis has been officially turned in, I just have to write two (pretty long) essays and then I'm pretty much ready to graduate 🤯 Of course, this close, these essays feel extra long 😅

Valve is making a Linux-powered PC for your living room "We finally have all the software and the hardware bits to make the original vision a reality."

Honestly, depending on the pricing I could see getting a Steam Machine instead of a new gaming PC at this point in my life.

Not many big hitters for me personally, but a lot of games that I feel positive about 😊

Grattis på födelsedagen! 😊

Thanks for linking this!! 🫶 I had completely missed the whole State of Play somehow 😮

Your supervisors have to read same lengthy texts time and time again. Leave them little gifts in your text 🙏

My supervisor left a comment saying ctrl + f found 22 instances I used a same expression in my thesis. I cut it down to like 5, and added an entirely new instance of using it.

Like the Down of a Thistle, Love and Thorns by Sarah Swan.

Like the Down of a Thistle, Sarah Swan

Lesbian romance story in 18th century Scotland. Immersive as heck, really takes you into its story world. It is deftly written and engaging, raw in many senses - raw, passionate emotions abound in the story, which could've had little more pauses to breathe.

Alien is up there for me too! Phenomenal movie

I have this irrational fear that I'm focusing on wrong ideas, that "better" ones could be just around the corner.

I found it very comfortable to play with a controller. I haven't tried it with KBM and I don't see a reason to. I can just chill and play it on the couch 😊 So far, I can recommend the game. Tactics feels more grounded than a lot of FF games,but somehow there's still a very solid FF feel to it.

Yaay, Moomin! 🥰 Good night!

Top of my backlog. While I've been mostly playing HoMM3 and WoW and Valheim, I did manage to start Final Fantasy Tactics! 👀 Really enjoying the rema... -ster? -ke?

Friday I had a meeting about my thesis and it basically couldn't have gone better. I'll get grade in a month, but I basically know which grade to expect 👀 Went to a lovely tea house with wife after, and before Shabbat service. It was a good day. 🥰

I really like the Truck Simulator games! My only issue is that I haven't found yet a way to play long sessions that doesn't strain my wrists :( I'm so glad you enjoyed this game!

I literally didn't even consider this but you know... Good point 😅

Witcher 4 and Mandrake are on my four too! 🙌

The threat to the real Southern heritage is other states losing their ability to say "at least we we are not Mississippi"

I thought I was going to have a meeting with my supervisor on my thesis today but I misremembered the date and it’s on Friday. Two more days of anxious waiting 😅

The Future of Nostalgia, Svetlana Boym

A non-fiction book I want to feature here, an amazing read on nostalgia combining memoir, academic historical analysis and philosophical essays. A ton of insight into human condition that made me have to put the book down and just think. Long staying power.

Page describing enchanter class

A page on magic with art depicting a lady and a strange elk-like creature holding a bell

page on mossling kindred (race in other games), little gnarly creatures living in the bogs of dolmenwood

introductory page showcasing art where a character with a lantern is looking at a sign with a raven standing atop it

Look at this book, I love it ❤️

I've been a player in a Dolmenwood campaign and it's been just a blast. It's a fantasy setting, and game, inspired by British folklore and it's just beyond phenomenal. Having so much fun playing a human magic-user in a party with a knight, a woodsman, and two demi-fairies a grimalkin and a woodgrue.

What a beautiful view! 😍

Wait I have missed completely that Outer Worlds 2 did actually come out on PS5 too. That's exciting!

I hate nested nightmares where I wake up just into another nightmare. It's been like 10 years since I've had one like that but got one this night 😭Didn't get even three hours of sleep but I feel it's been hours and hours.

I always mix up Joe Pera and Joe Pesci.
