as a complete baseball outsider I was watching those extra innings the other day and half-facetiously thinking "poor guy, he's so good at the game that he doesn't even get to play"

i think if you ride public transit enough you learn that most weird behavior is not dangerous, and conversely i think driving a car teaches you that everyone is trying to kill you at all times

I have watched like ten innings of baseball in the last 5 years, by accident, and they keep being historic overtime games. Please free me from my suffering

Starting to pack up books & other easily-stowed stuff for the move, and I stumbled upon my original (2014) Gun Hazard route notes. Check out these sick level diagrams for the chapter 2 bases

I was already a prog-rock fan by the time I was thinking seriously about "video game music" but I will never forget the time I listened to the first Camel album and thought "man they could have made a hell of a megaman romhack if they wanted to"

Old Castle, by the river, in the middle of a forest
YouTube video by Hiromi - Topic Old Castle, by the river, in the middle of a forest

Hiromi's entire repertoire might be up his alley, particularly stuff like "old castle, by the river, in the middle of a forest": www.youtube.com/watch?v=L-vl...
I think her music strikes a great balance between some genuinely sick modern jazz/fusion chops and the same j-pop tonality that informs vgm

someday it will be socially acceptable to just say you like disco and R&B again. Until then, persona has your back

Delicately questioning the person who "only listens to video game music" to figure out whether they're a prog rock fan who doesn't know it or an instrumental jazz fan who doesn't know it.

Trump slammed for demolishing White House before Canadians could burn it down again WASHINGTON D.C. - US President Donald Trump's planned White House ballroom, requiring the complete demolition of the historic East Wing, is being criticized by Canadians who will now never get to light the building on fire for a second time since the War of 1812.

Couldn't be me sitting exactly in the wilderzone between "gun hazard is a perfect concept given form, please play it" and "gun hazard is a fun concept with way too much content per unit idea, caveat emptor"

YouTube video by dent4f La Calice Cup 11 Trailer

starting to get the shmuppin' itch again. I'm not ready to commit to another long Rayforce grind while also on the hunt for a first home purchase, so I'm glad La Calice Cup exists to tide me over. Join us! www.youtube.com/watch?v=7llh...

I continue to love everything about this game but B13M5 was designed by a genuine sadist who I can only imagine hates not only the players, but also life itself.

Close to the Edge is the ultimate winner for me. Heard it for the first time at the age of roughly 20 or so and it basically rewired my brain in ways that are still relevant 15 years later.

if you're the First Galactic Empireβ„’, your strategy is to antagonize both factions until they get sick of your bullshit and join together to get rid of you, killing thousands and wasting months of your own valuable "peacekeeping" time

tie fighter battle 2 remains one of the best stories that's ever been told about the imperial era of star wars. you're the dominant galactic power and you're nominally here to pacify some civil war that's been going on for generations, what's your strategy?
