"don't put all your eggs in one basket" but they forget that each basket is riddled with holes and one breath away from disintegrating, and the eggs you've poured into them will crack upon the ground and you'll keep refilling it to no avail

ok. calm now, that was a fantastic state of play after repeat mediocrity. recession indicator and all that, especially when they're porting some pretty great classics + reviving a few + some interesting new games coming out as well... now to find the time...........

At the end of the day, the Black Lives Matter era was about whether people should be killed in the street, and lots of people decided yeah and put those little blue flags on their cars. It spread to everyone because it stopped for no one.

as an iraqi, it's just really fascinating to observe the imperial boomerang work in miraculous ways in real time

i haven't been this down abysmal for a character in awhile. consider a schedule ruined if dankovsky so much as utters "i need to go to burakh" because i'm already running in whatever direction he's in

i wish i kept a thread of my experiences in pathologic 3 so far because i can't emphasize how much it truly is a one of a kind game. it's one i can see why IP lodge had difficulty completing from the getgo because it discards essential (capitalist) game design components to attract a mass audience

i think i need to grow more comfortable with posting sketches again because even if i (mostly unintentionally) go quiet, i do have an incredible backlog of sketches that i don't really have the opportunity to share because they're usually... from relatively obscure things....

played homo-i mean, homicipher last night, mr. crawling my beloved... can't believe i'm conducting linguistic studies to be able to communicate with him and the other monster waifus (<- idiot playing on the hardest difficulty)

i don't think i've expressed how much i love gdt's portrayal of the creature and it drives me insane that jacob elordi did such an amazing job of capturing the essence of how the creature is portrayed within the book

i'm really glad people are waking up to how so much of the technological devolution we're having is deeply intertwined with the current GenAI craze. even the noticeably high outages we experience from AWS to cloudflare are related to this, since companies across the board are prioritizing GenAI
