Therapist: May I suggest you take a break?

Me: Sure! OK! So. I want to be optimally relaxed. I'd like to maximize how refreshed I feel in the shortest amount of time possible. What's the best tactic? How do I reach peak rest? How do I win resting? Can I min/max my leisure?

Therapist: Oh no.

YouTube video by SimplyPressStart How to Play Animal Crossing Deluxe

Animal Crossing Deluxe adds in so many wonderful QoL changes to Animal Crossing GameCube, I cannot recommend it enough!

Thigh tattoo of The Underking from Daggerfall, mostly monochrome but does have red and blue highlights.

@elderscrolls.bethesdastudios.com has always been a big part of my life, especially Daggerfall. On Saturday I got an Underking tattoo from Luna Baker in Toronto and I’m so pleased with it!

A source reached out to me claiming MasterCard contacted Riot Games about the ongoing Steam/itchio controversy. MasterCard is a major Riot esports sponsor. This is the message going around internally from Riot, paraphrased: * MasterCard has asked Riot to keep an eye out for negative sentiments on official Riot streams * Riot has asked esports content creators working with official Riot properties to watch out for any negative sentiments toward MasterCard * Moderators have been told to look out for any unusual activity around the MasterCard issue

Unfortunately the art for Lugia and Ho-oh was traced from another artist’s work so they’re having to be redone 🙃

Steam and Itch.io Are Pulling ‘Porn’ Games. Critics Say It's a Slippery Slope to More Censorship A conservative group is targeting payment processors as “a weapon” to get adult games deindexed in storefronts. Even games that have nothing to do with sex or abuse have been caught in the dragnet.

Antiporn groups said they were only going after games with violence against women. But what got censored? Award-winning games about disordered eating, LGBTQ+ games and anything flagged NSFW.

@megannicolett.bsky.social's reporting raises alarms about the real danger of this censorship campaign.

Pictured is a close up on the face of the Hero of Kvatch. White text overlaid reads: "Thanks to over IV (4) million players."

We are so grateful to the over 4 million of you that have already ventured into Cyrodiil with Oblivion Remastered. Thank you!

Huge thanks to our friends @bethesdastudios.com for their continued support of #Skyblivion!

As massive fans, we're beyond grateful for the generous gift of Oblivion Remastered game keys for our entire modding team! This means so much to us. Thank you for everything, @bethesda.net!

i need people to understand "death of the author" means the author can't dictate what you take away from the text, not that you're not complicit in what they do with the profit they make from you buying it in the first place

If you've enjoyed Cryptmaster, please consider sharing the news. Despite an IGF award, a 95% Steam rating and a free demo, the game has gone mostly unnoticed by both press and players. It's not just a typing game and there may still be people out there who would enjoy it!
