I'm still not sure I'm fully processing this. It feels like this came out of NOWHERE and is one of the biggest trades in at least the past decade of the NBA, if not even longer. Absolutely wild.

Okay I'll admit I burst out loud laughing at this one

Unfortunately, Bannister always seemed like a temporary coach - unless the Blues went absolutely lights out with a subpar roster, it was just a matter of when. I do think he deserves a shot as at least an assistant somewhere, hopefully he lands on his feet.

Ladies and gentlemen... the weekend. (also: you are important and are not alone 🧡)

Neat game - not very long, but the procedural generation is neat, and it features pretty quick restarts when you fail, which is always nice for a game like this.

This is one of my all-time favorite Kids in the Hall sketches - I cannot hear a "Who's on First" joke or setup without thinking of this sketch. www.youtube.com/watch?v=jFhv...

Oh no! Hope it comes back soon, need to get more cherry hunting in!

Still having some abdominal pain today - went to the store to buy some foods that would maybe be easier on my system, although I don't actually know what my issue is yet, and the internet is not helpful in that I could have like 40 different things XD

Not much to say about this game - it's a pretty slight little arena shooter. It's fun in short bursts, but I definitely found the low movement speed to be very frustrating a lot of the time. #UFO50

Ugh, my stomach has been not feeling great the last couple of days - sorry for the silence here! Still feeling a bit wonky, but will post some of my latest UFO 50 accomplishments here shortly :)

Found this song while hanging out with @tanukidan.bsky.social last week - and holy shit how have I not heard of these guys before? Some absolutely terrific Japanese melodic metal, and I'm totally here for it. www.youtube.com/watch?v=CbI7...

I really, really like parts of Mini and Max. I also really, really don't know what I think of how the game is structured - it seems like it's really easy to just wander aimlessly and stumble upon things rather than getting real direction most of the time. #UFO50

YouTube video by Lucas Cavalcante Phantasy Star III OST ~ Lashute

Phantasy Star 3 has a lot that doesn't work - slow movement, tedious battles - overall it just feels like a lot of ideas that weren't able to be finished.

The music, however, is pretty decent, and the final dungeon track (Lashute) is pretty amazing. www.youtube.com/watch?v=xJzo...

Feels a bit more like a tech demo than a true game - extremely short, and actually somehow seems to get easier as it goes along

Jesus fucking Christ - I know people are dumb, but this is next level stupidity right here...

I posted about this a while back, but never posted the cherry disk. Super addictive after a while, and I still sometimes come back and play random even though I have already achieved the cherry.

I have a really weird relationship with streaming right now. I miss doing it, and occasionally stream in Discord. But when I actually have time I could maybe use to stream, I just don't feel like it. It's like my brain is actively blocking me from wanting to stream when I have the time to do so.

It's not my favorite game in UFO 50, but I absolutely love the Onion Delivery music. Something about this track just hits so hard. #UFO50 #SongOfTheDay

Interesting adventure game. It starts really slowly, and doesn't really feel good to play until you get a few upgrades. The endgame is also far rougher than the rest of the game, and not sure that big of a difficulty spike was needed. #UFO50

Back from the conference! I had a good time learning some things at the conference, then had a great time yesterday hanging out IRL with @tanukidan.bsky.social!

5'10" or 5'11" - I've measured at both, so not sure which is correct XD

Hey!. So just getting the word out on this and I put a little explainer together about how you can help.
The really short message is: genetics suck, need a living donor for a kidney.
It'd mean the world to me if you spread this around so ppl know! Thanks!

UFO 50 updates on hold for a couple days while I'm away at a work conference and processing through what just happened to this country.

Love y'all.

Looks like hatred wins again. You continue to disappoint me on so many levels, America.

Always 💖

I enjoyed the actual game quite a bit, but the hunt items kept getting longer and longer, and the endgame dampened my overall enjoyment a little bit. #UFO50

I know I have very few followers - but please, for all my US friends, go vote today, but do not feel like you have to watch every waking moment of the coverage as stuff comes in. I have done that in elections past, and it was never good for my mental health, even when I liked the outcome.

I really did not like this one to start - and still have a bit of a love/hate relationship with it, although it definitely grew on me, despite the sometimes wildly oscillating RNG.

Also, wild buddies can fuck all the way off. #UFO50

Really fun for the most part - although the constant 'dive, get one item, then go all the way back to the top' got old after while and made the latter half of this game a little more of a slog than was maybe necessary #UFO50
