Sitting in the yard frying a turkey gives you time to ponder life's great mysteries, like why didn't they do a sequel to District 9 in 2012? It would've lined up with the timeframe of the aliens returning in the movie AND the end of the world predictions.

Fuck me smoked duck sounds delicious. I do a lot of BBQ pork shoulder and belly, never would've thought to try smoking duck.

The slow, contemplative gaps between the action are part of what makes the game so good imo, but I understand not everybody is into that. Coincidentally, Moby Dick is one of my favorite books.

I have three weeks off til I start my new job, and I'm frying another turkey tomorrow. Depression has been eliminated.

We call them a biscuit in the US because they started out as essentially hardtack (and the British called them biscuits), but over time settlers improved the recipe since it didn't need to be a long lasting food, and they ended up with something more like a scone. Those are biscuits.

I've had a lot of fun with World of Sea Battle, and it's free. Check it out and see if it's up your alley or not.

Man ABC 1974 is one of my favorite Rush albums. This and Garden Road are so good. Plus you get Rutsey on the drums, which is cool.

I currently have a lot of things I need to paint. The MGS boardgame, six Metal Slug models with minis, like 60 WH minis, a couple dozen Battletech minis. But hoo boy those Trench Crusade minis look awful cool.

At this point, just give me Super Metroid with a fresh coat of paint and I'd be happy. If they really want to go above and beyond, Super Metroid in the engine they used for Dread. Bang, done, take my money.

This was my Quest 64 as a kid (alongside Glover and... Quest lol). I was always telling people how good it was, and constantly being asked, "wtf is Body Harvest?"

It changes with the wind, like the pronunciation of pecan. It's like jazz, you do what feels right in the moment.

If a ghost wants to cop a feel to 100hm while we make a vase or a bong or whatever, I'll give it a pass.

The exception to this is whittling and wood carving content. Doug Linker is like the Bob Ross of wood carving, and I love him to death

Fucked up and started playing satisfactory again last night. Now I'm sat here with actual work to do, and instead of doing that, I'm thinking about how to optimize production of metal rods and screws.
