tetsuya mizuguchi truly, earnestly believes, with his whole heart and whole mind, that generic vocal trance from 2003 has the power to awaken humanity's shared consciousness and guide us to universal peace. The strength of his conviction is so powerful that it might actually cause this to be true

Is Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 considered an "indie game"?
As in, would it belong on @indiequestpod.com's Quest Log?

The easiest way to get a 2x multiplier on your mental health is just grab like 10 things from your home and sell/donate/toss them.
Feels so good to just get rid of stuff.

Toddlers are kinda famous for getting obsessed with a song, but you assume it'll be one of the obvious ones. Baby Shark, Twinkle Twinkle, etc. But nope! This is the song that my two year old demands on repeat. He's apparently already processing his email job angst

Biggest example of this in my life was when I discovered, well into my late teens, that Articuno, Zapdos and Moltres are so named because they count up uno, dos, tres.
My spouse has this thing he calls “grasshopper moments” —from when he was a kid and he realized that grasshoppers are called that because they hop in the grass. I was today years old when I realized that quart is short for a quarter of a gallon. As in a quart of milk.
I have a PhD.

That's Dragon Quest VIII in the bag! After two different false starts on this one, I've finally seen it through to the end. Unsurprisingly, it captures all the magic and casual playfulness of the series perfectly. It's not my top top tier DQ game, but it's certainly standing on the podium. A+ game
