On the less pleasant side of things, I cancelled my #XboxGamePass subscription. I’ve been an Xbox subscriber since 2013, but I just can’t justify a $30 subscription in this day and age. That price hike was diabolical. I’ll go back to buying the games I want when they go on sale

Finally found a record player. I haven’t had one of these since I was a kid (my portable Sesame Street record player was the best). There’s something so nostalgic and pleasant about listening to an album from start to finish with no screens, no skipping, no interruptions. It’s peaceful

I'm going to start using "digital asbestos" as a term of art.
I'm going to be honest here, I think AI is going to do so much damage to the usable internet that even after it's inevitably crashes out, it's going to take years to disentangle from every space it's polluted, like digital asbestos it's gonna be time consuming effort and likely expensive venture.
I think AI is going to eventually tank in the longterm, but...
the only real way to combat this is single-interest communities. Forums, user comms, etc, with a barrier to entry. They become trustable knowledgebases. It's really the only way forward is to return to what worked best the first time

I have dived so deep into my batfam obsession that I took the dive and bought Gotham Knights on Xbox today (on sale for less than $10 if anyone else has been holding out). I just couldn’t help myself, no matter how many people told me the game wasn’t good. I want the lore!

2. Eat the Reich. Anarchist vampires are going to shoot and bite their way through all the Nazis it takes to kill Hitler. What We Do In The Shadows meets Inglorious Basterds. Also noteworthy for some really on-point graphic design.

Eat the Reich - Rowan, Rook and Decard
The year is 1943. You are a team of crack vampire commandos with one mission: drink all of Hitler's blood.
