My copy of @ongamesjournal.bsky.social has arrived, and I really like the original PlayStation cover.

Right, I keep seeing misinformation about the lower Thames Crossing. 1. It is not in London. 2. Kent only has one crossing across the river. Here's a quick look. The red circle is Dartford Crossing. The green line is where the new crossing will be. It's needed because one crossing is a bottleneck.

My latest #Pokemon card pick ups are Loudred, Magby, and Garganacl art rares from the Japanese Ancient Roar set. Only 15 cards left to complete the entire set.

Confirmation that the Israeli government's goal is genocide of the Palestinian people. Sickening government and those who support it are the worst of humanity.

I've started reading The Murderbot Diaries series, and I'm already relating to the main character.

I've started investing in a new market.

My first art card pull. Mienshao Art Rare from the Ancient Roar set. Not a bad start to this collecting lark. #pokemon

And the last page so far. I still have unopened packs to sort.

Went to visit a friend's new trading card shop that he recently opened. I walked out with a Pokémon binder and packs, when I haven't bought any since I was a child. This could become an issue.

Just saw Bloodywood live. Definitely recommend you go see them live if you can.

My copy of @ongamesjournal.bsky.social has arrived. I'm looking forward to giving it a read.

Woke up to a load of snow in Kyoto this morning.

I was in Kanazawa today and stumbled across a Capcom pop up store.

I have spent the last few days in Tokyo, but time is up here. Have wandered the gaming center of Akihabara, set foot on Mount Fuji, crossed the Shibuya Crossing, and just had a great time.

Next up is Kanazawa.

Day One of Tokyo is complete. Here are some highlights including the Meiji Shrine, Rainbow Bridge, and Shinjuku at night.

This is my backlog for 2025. No new game purchases until I get through these, so the only new games will be review games. Once these are done I'll start buying games from my wishlist.

The last couple of weeks I've just obsessively been listening to Bloodywood. Now, I've confirmed my tickets to see them in concert.

Spent a very nice weekend exploring the city of Bath. Got my steps in by visiting the Roman Baths, venturing through the Christmas Market, climbing to the top of the Abbey, and walking up so many hills.

Kemi is confused again. Is lunch for wimps, unless you're having steak? Or is she calling herself a wimp because she occasionally has lunch?

Why is the leader of the Opposition so weird?

Finished reading The Shortest History of India, which gives a whirlwind overview of 5000 years of history of the Indian subcontinent. I recommend it and it is good to learn more about the ancestral homeland.

My copy of @joemulhall.bsky.social's Rebel Sounds: Music As Resistance has arrived. Looking forward to giving it a read.

And done. Make sure to use Bookshop.org if you're going to buy a copy too to support independent bookshops.

Ridiculous demand by Graham Stringer. The police have already stated that Allison Pearson was questioned over racial hatred. Amazing how those in power will go to bat to support someone accused of racism, rather than condemn the racist tone of the tweet in question.

After finishing Final Fantasy XVI, I've selected the next game I'm going to play through, and it is a classic. That game is Tearaway.
