Due to the general state of things *waves hands wildly*, I've been really diving back into video games in a way I haven't in years, playing a bunch of stuff I just never got around to.

This month alone, I ran through Ratched and Clank (and most of 2). Uncharted 1-3, Yakuza Pirate, and Horizon 2

You ever go to the board game store to pick up a preorder...and while you're there you grab a couple deals/new releases....

Only to get home to find multiple board game deliveries waiting for you. Looks like I've got a set afternoon.

That was entirely too many people...glad I left the extra room at the table xD

The trees look great now tho

Gun violence is no laughing matter!

My cat has better taste in music than your cat. Fight me.

Me - Your report filters are wrong
Boss - No no, something went wrong with the data!

20 min of arguing over Teams call later:
Boss - oopse my report filter is wrong

Cornbread in a cast iron skillet

Very few things make my house smell better than a skillet full of cornbread.

I'm 100% in, except my copy of Innovation is much less pretty...the way it's supposed to be!

Innovation is the best game that no one will play with me.

This happens all the time over here. I use a mechanical drive for most things and an SSD for anything that is gonna be a pain. I can't count how many times I've mixed em up.

New receiver and relocated the speakers... Sounds SOOO much better than the AliExpress-special I had in there before

Going through all the bags of stuff @magicallylazy.bsky.social dragged home from Gencon and adding them to inventory.

Great time to just put on a record (The Gorillaz - Demon Days, for those interested) and jam out some data entries.

A completed game of Coffee Roaster, board game

A cat, asleep inside a cardboard pirate ship

Christopher Cross - Another Page, on Vinyl. Playing in a cabinet placed record player.

Spending the afternoon getting through some #sologames. Got a middling score in Coffee Roaster while my cat doses off in his pirate ship while we jam out to Christopher Cross.

Jimmy Buffet's Son of a Son of a Sailor on vinyl and a large lemonade in a take out container on a counter.

Partner comes home from Gencon tomorrow. Made up a huge lemonade and got some records going while I clean up all the mess I haven't addressed while they are gone.

Little guy was listening to REO Speedwagon and The Pointer Sisters with no problem, but as soon as old man mumble came on, he gave me a disgusted loon and went to the bedroom.

Turns out, my cat doesn't particularly like Bob Dylan.

I just had leftover beef cubes in the freezer that I didn't get to when it was cold. Also, instant pot meals like this are eaten over like 2-3 days, so I have to cook less while becks is gone.

Vegetarian partner is away at Gencon - time to quickly post about (and cook) beef!

It's even more impressive that while yourselves and NPI are shocked by this behavior, that a certain large man in a hat with a similar name is actively promoting "big toilet" at Gencon this week.

Need a better amp and probably a referb on the speakers, but the record "nook" is one of the better parts of my house right now.

Especially since the speakers point to the kitchen so I can listen while I cook.

Comprehensive Adam Sandler ranking video when??

Just bought a massive stack of records from our local place, The Record Museum and paid an incredibly low price...around 2.50 each!

Gotta go back and grab some more next time...what should I look out for?

A map of middle earth, hand painted on a bedroom wall.

Spent the weekend painting this absolutely massive map in a room of the house that will almost never be used. At least guests will be impressed!

This is your annual reminder that the Mayor in Jaws 2 is the same as in Jaws 1.

"Separate hot dogs with a hammer" is a thing I had to do this week, and it's not even the strangest, or most stressful.

Me: schedules for a brand new AC installation on Wednesday.

The Earth: heatwave starting on a Monday.

My old AC: if you are gonna replace me, I might as well die anyway.

Used game prices have been all over lately. Becks and I took some stuff to a different store and got 4x what we expected. It's just luck of the draw sometimes.

Same squirrel, same. TGIF.

Important files follow 3-2-1

3 copies
At least 2 media types
1 copy off-site

Usually it's just a hard disk and burned CDs, but I've been thinking of upgrading to tape lol.

I don't usually use a specific backup program/system, as those are usually the first to go down/under

Excited to get a full HVAC overhaul in our new place next week.

Not excited for the heatwave that starts this week.
