Finally got some time to sort a streaming schedule out for the next few months! I'll be streaming every Sunday from 2pm for 3-4 hours working on new and existing speedruns! Any additional days will be confirmed/added.

The shops down the walk of Leith are lovely and welcoming and care about the books/board games/etc they are so passionate about. Waterstones being here would take away from that. It's such a poor decision and shouldn't be accepted.
We need your help.
@waterstones.bsky.social, without any direct communication with us, will be opening their 6th Edinburgh branch less than 100 metres from our front door at the Foot of the Walk in Leith.
Please read on for more information

I'm reminded at how depressing Golgo 13 The Professional is as a film. Animation wise it's got amazing shots and the cg/3d isn't as jarring as I remember. But yeah. I don't think you can really like this film for what it is otherwise.

Can report the same here. My sub count has also dropped significantly, suddenly.
My sub count has also drastically dropped over the last couple of weeks, currently sitting at the lowest it's been since 2018 (!), and between this post from PJ and Twitch just being completely moronic in recent memory I simply refuse to believe it's a coincidence.
My sub count has been steady for 6 years or so, and I've magically lost 100 in the past 3-4 days. Several more are reporting issues with payment processors not taking their cards now. Again, please recheck your subs to see if they're still active and not automatically cancelling.

Same thing has been happening to me. I've had an unusual number of dropoffs and have been telling people if they do not mean to discontinue their subs with me to check their sub tab.

This is very good reading and more reason why i don't go near games like this.
For Arc Raiders to ride the wave of human sociability all the way to the bank, while also being so contemptuous of the thing that makes us social animals in its own workflow demonstrates a lack of artistic integrity that I find impossible to ignore.

ChaO was fantastic. There was a lot in the visual and audio that made me laugh and caught my eye. To know it was entirely hand drawn too with the amount put into it was fascinating. It's a brilliant example of fun, vibrant character design that I love to see

GTAVI being delayed again isn't surprising to be honest. Also it's a good thing considering they wanna polish it up

@robert1988uk.bsky.social not sure if you've tried them yet but if you can find it - Unorthodox Roasters Shockd coffee beans are really nice. Extremely fruity flavour. You notice it from opening the pack as well. Good stuff

Run got declined for AGDQ but that's okay! I never thought I'd ever submit a run to an event like this, so the fact I even felt confident enough to provide a run is something to be proud of. There's plenty more opportunities to come!

Watched the Casshern film for the first time this evening and it was an enjoyable watch. The message of the movie was thrown at you all the time and the translation/subtitles needed work. But it had a lot of cool elements. I'm not sure this is my favourite iteration of Casshern. But it wasn't bad

On a positive note. It's a great feeling when you can size down from XL to L clothes. Has been a long time coming. Feels good
