23. they/them. writer. "'cause i'm too tired, to be honest. and i'm too hurt to pretend." letterboxd for my Art Takes @ JamesIsTired. Extremely Normal about Riverdale. incapable of being anything but serious and sincere. character limits were a bad idea.

finally watching M3GAN 2.0 as a little treat, and it is a blast so far, even more so than the first movie, but also why is M3GAN GLaDOS. can we be a little fucking serious. she sounds literally exactly like GLaDOS half the time.

A better world is possible
According to the City of Paris, in the last 10 years 150K trees have been planted & 45ha of parks created in the already hot city, all intended to not only improve quality-of-life today, but also help the city adapt to & manage summer heatwaves of 50℃ (122F) by 2050.

Just the start.

Common sense.

if you are still making "gAmE JoUrNaLiSt" jokes in 2025, i think you should be [REDACTED], or actually [REDACTED] by a pair of rabid animals until you lose your sense of self and have a crisis of personhood and can no longer recognize yourself in the mirror. maybe then you'll learn.

just looks like a higher fidelity version of X-Men Origins: Wolverine but besides that, sure. it looks fine. really will depend on the actual feel.
First official look at gameplay for Insomniac’s ‘WOLVERINE’ game.

I've been meaning to talk about the Metroid series for a dog's age. So let's do that.

The first one is a real mess, and we should all be very thankful.
Metroid (NES) is a complete mess (and that's great).

hit the title card and just starting the generator, shitty slide, Roger's consistently cranky voice, the run, the limp jump, we have literally never been more back.
Dying Light: The Beast just finished downloading, still just watching the Previously On, but i feel like we've never ever been so fucking back. so excited to play as Crane again even though i actually quite enjoyed Dying Light 2.

so glad to finally be playing Strange Antiquities, i'm up to the end of Day 3 so far and this is SO GOOD. genuinely such a neat jump from the first game as far as puzzle design without being overwhelming. if it keeps this up, it honestly might replace Strange Horticulture as one of my favs.

btw. the new app has so many bugs, and has actually crashed on me twice in the middle of a review, causing me to fully lose whatever i had written and requiring me to start from scratch. if you know how expansive my work usually is, you know this isn't a small thing. it's infuriating.
the new letterboxd UI on android is so fucking awful btw, i hate it so much. if i wanted the letterboxd UI from an iPhone, i would just get an iPhone. don't make me have to downgrade using an APK. bring back the original UI.

didn't think i could physically be more excited for Silksong but ig i was wrong.
Hollow Knight Silksong is like Dark Souls 2 to the original. I'm excited to play more but it's a very mixed experience
