Feedback to the publishing industry: books in a series must have the volume number written somewhere on the front cover.

Re-reading the Lost Fleet books by Jack Campbell/John Hemry (purchased on Kobo), and it's always a struggle to figure out which volume goes where.

Picked up and read through the Chronicles Of Darkness sourcebook (which includes the God-Machine Chronicle), and it solves so much of my complaints of the first "new World Of Darkness" edition. Being multilingual is not unusual, game designers.

If a game has an elemental system that includes Metal and Wood, and one is represented by lightning and another by poison, I feel like the player can be forgiven for getting it wrong.

I miss being able to do things I used to do, like stand up without at least one joint in my body cracking.

Binging through a 800-page forum thread about "what were they thinking" decisions in media, and about 70% of the examples were from superhero comics.

It has been a few weeks since then, but I still cannot get over how the NYT Spelling Bee game accepts "noggin", but not "gaol".

There is something curiously heartwarming when I bring up something I heard once but cannot recall the source of, and someone else confirms they heard it too but cannot recall the source either.

Let us unite in forgetful confusion.

Fantasy Otome-style Light Novel men: "Please don't wear such revealing clothes. You're my fiancee, and I don't want other men to look at you."

Fantasy Otome-style Light Novel women: "THIS IS MY FIANCE EVERYONE, FEAST YOUR EYES"

My honest and probably controversially unpopular opinion on #rum is I really like the taste, but I very much dislike the burning alcohol sensation.

Which does mean I have been wondering if there is such a thing as non-alcoholic rum.

Buying a new pair of scissors for general use is always tricky. The scissors advertise "ease of use" or "safety", when what I want is "sharp enough to cut through the plastic packaging the scissors themselves are in".

Never mind Arkveld (whom I have yet to see), Rey Dau is kicking me up and down the map. Even Doshaguma is a surprising challenge. I'm so rusty. #monsterhunterwilds

My current PC is pushing up against the limits of system requirements for recent games. I should upgrade it some time this year, but I have the usual anxiety about "what if this bricks everything".

Picked up some rum (taster set of three small bottles), in an effort to broaden my tastes. Not much of a drinker, so I might dilute the rum with lots of water.

In other words, grog.

(I might try making a basic daiquiri some time.)

There comes a time, often quite quickly, in every Vtuber fan's life when they must ask an important question: "Why is my oshi like this?"
