Congratulations. I am now 4x more likely to watch Predator: Badlands. This sounds dope.

This feels the same as the anti-woke crowd complaining about “Mad Max: Fury Road” or 2025 Superman, two movies I love.

Me: Wow, Blood on the Clocktower is really fun! How much does the physical main game cost?

Pile of videogames: hey you should try to finish Pokémon LZA and the Dragon Quest I & II remakes. You paid good money for those!

Me: What if I just played more Hades II?

POV: wait-

Good night, sweet prince.

I'll see you in 8.0.

On a nature walk with my partner. Found a very well-camouflaged bug.

(I think it’s a juvenile jumping spider but I’m not 100% sure. Little guy is tiny. Maybe a centimeter long.)

SOCRATES: No god is a philosopher or seeker after wisdom, for he is wise already; nor does any man who is wise seek after wisdom.

PLATO: Neither do the ignorant seek after wisdom.

Oh dip, I'm late with my Blood, Bath, and Beyond update! We won. Again. Fifth time in six weeks. We're the heel champions of the bar now.

A few of our good gets this time were Nelson Mandela's prisoner number, how to cook tamales, and the many names of the Lady of the Lake.

In around 3 weeks RGG Studio is holding an event where fans can pay the equivalent of around $980 US to MARRY the Like a Dragon character of their choice.

…and this one’s (mostly) for the ladies.

August of 2016!

I started out as a Pugilist because I like FF Monks, but as I played more I ultimately became a tank main* to this day.

*Blog post about this topic coming very soon.

This went buttery-smooth. Probably my easiest Typhon fight.

I got a 765-damage Hephaestus blast every 2.2 seconds and 310-damage Zeus blitzes about as often 😂.

-Y0
-MaKi
-MH Wilds
-MM7
-XBC3
-Silksong

I’m at a paltry 10 games finished on the year. I’d like to get to maybe 15 or 16? We’ll see how I feel after my FFXIV sub expires later this week.

Orson Welles? Oh, you mean Unicron.
I think everybody has a “Wallace Shawn from Young Sheldon” — my first one would probably be “Vincent Price, the guy who did the voice of Ratigan in The Great Mouse Detective”

GOT ‘IM

#RollCredits on Final Fantasy Tactics: The Ivalice Chronicles

The new script and voice work are outstanding, and it’s still the same game I fell in love with 20+ years ago. The best version of all-time classic.

Girlfriend and I watched Coco for Dia de los Muertos. Her first time seeing it. First time I’ve seen it in a few years.

Lots of crying. I feel emotionally manipulated (non-derogatory).

My girlfriend and I spent Halloween night watching Clue and Scooby Doo.

That’s true romance.

Reason # 2,074 to hate David Zaslav: nearly all Scooby-Doo media has been removed from HBO Max as of March 2025.

Blood, Bath, & Beyond took home a win once again! We had some stumbles in the second half but pulled through!

This week I must thank Mary Shelley, Boston Terriers, and the fact that feta cheese comes primarily from sheep’s milk and not goat’s milk for the victory.
