My resolve to take it easy at the library today crumbled after a single cup of coffee and I have already put together a massive new book order, scheduled out a field trip day, tackled a ton of correspondence and still have the Global Reading Challenge Elimination Round to supervise in an hour

I think it would be extremely funny if it turns out that not only is the Kingdom Hearts remake real but it also joins the canon as its own thing rather than replacing the original because it wouldn’t even be the first SE game to do that

Octopath Traveler clicked with me after I painstakingly sunk several dozen hours into it. I don’t know if it’s because I’ve learned to love these games but the sequel is enchanting me from the word go. This may be a bonafide classic.

I don't actually want more Madoka and that's not at all because I dislike it but moreso because what I adored about it was the way that it made me feel, and it's difficult to imagine a continuation of that story conjuring up those same feelings. Something awfully wonderful like it, though...

What a knockout fucking ED. I still remember just how utterly bonechilling this was the first time I saw it. I feel like I'm still chasing the messy, nightmarish feelings Madoka gave me over a decade later.

I'm not sure that I'm asexual but rather that I inadvertently approach sex the same way that I do Minecraft where there's theoretically so many options in front of me that I'm paralyzed with indecision and wind up contributing nothing to the building process and can only be awed by what I see

I'm gonna be real I don't understand Resident Evil nude mods. Like I get the baseline appeal of seeing someone naked but there's like goop all over the place in those games courtesy of the evil residents. I don't want evil resident goop on my dick, no sir.

The remake of Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door was a delight but I think the real highlight for me was my wife watching me recruiting Madame Flurrie and blurting out, “Damn, that bitch is as stacked as me!”

Paranormasight is an incredible adventure game. Sublimely atmospheric and creative and deftly written. It makes me wish Japan was real.

On the one hand unlocking the ability to be Luigi at the end of the journey is undeniably pretty awesome but on the other hand I'm legitimately struggling to identify the parts of my life that I could improve upon by jumping slightly higher and sliding around like a motherfucker
