Incredible work by the folks at Google managing to completely mangle the playback speed feature. Just the encouragement I need to use YouTube even less.

5. Tactics Ogre Reborn
I originally played the PSP version on the Vita. I 100%-ed it this run. The gameplay shows it's age, but the story is one of gaming's GOATs. Wasn't a fan of the weird muddy pixel art, though.

Promised myself I would get back in the habit of making hot sauce when I got back home. Promises made, promises kept. This batch was with hatch chiles, tomatillos, ghost peppers, and trinidad scorpions.

I can't remember the last time my lock screen has brought me such joy and matched our current mood at the same time.

Finally caved and got into coffee while in Japan. Came home and purchased a hand grinder and chemex. First attempt is a little bitter, but I think it's a pretty good starting point.

The Setagaya Hachimangu Shrine has a sumo wrestling pit on premises for celebrating some fall festivals. It's dope.

My wife and I went on a guided bike tour in Osaka and saw some amazing murals. Our tour guide, Ruben, was an amazing host and an artist himself. If you're ever in the city you should absolutely give this a look.

Donated to Wabash (and the same amount to my local).
I have a tall person style question. I can get suits and shirts with a tailor. But I'm 6'7" + long torso + short arms. Where would one go for custom casual wear like wind breakers or snowboarding jackets. I've yet to find anything.

I made corned beef from scratch and it's so worth it! (even with 5 days of brining and 4 hours of braising)

Even if I've navigated to a decent place in life, I reflect on almost every step of the way and wonder if it really needed to be that hard. Might be some common external-to-me themes there, who could say?

I'd be hard pressed to pick my favorite, but if I must then the Göttingen is the one for me. He knows he's getting a snack and super pleased about that.
Also, I looked up Ossabaw pigs and look at this little cutie!

I'm really happy with how this borscht came out. I experimented with some differences spice and it came out tasty. (the chicken stock on the right was for chicken noodle soup)
