Just a teacher and lefty politics dork. Random gaming and other nerdy posts too. So it goes. Momentai. "No matter what, we're always connected!"
2025 was a fun year in gaming. It’s hard to even make a choice for my GOTY. Top 4 contenders have got to be AI Limit, Digimon Time Stranger, Clair Obscur E33, & Ender Magnolia. And I’m sure if I would get to finishing Metroid Prime 4 that I would include that game here too. What a great year! #GOTY

This Pokemon dlc is really bad so far…. The new megas are cool, good designs all around, but I don’t have access to them yet, not even the advertised mega raichu. And it’s just…. Boring.

Wasn’t on my 2025 bingo card, but Fuga: Melodies of Steel is an absolute masterpiece = 10/10, no question.
Hopefully the sequels go on sale again soon. I would’ve bought them when I picked up the first game if I knew I was going to love it so much.

#metroidprime4 has got to be the fastest video game after launch to have spoilers posted so wantonly online. It’s kind of irritating.

'Sleeping Beauty' flopped in 1959, leading to cutbacks of the animation department in favor of theme parks, to make animation production faster/cheaper. Much of the women were the Ink & Department, yes, but getting rid of women were not why the cuts were made.
Please stop spreading misinfo, thanks.

the reason 101 dalmations looks like that is because disney incorporated xerography (ie early photocopying technology) into the animation process. rough pencils (by mostly male animators) were copied onto the cels so that disney could fire the (mostly female) inkers. remember that art can lie to you

#Metroid can potentially be one of #Nintendo ‘s biggest series.
They should really go all in: sequel to Dread, remakes of Super Metroid and Metroid Fusion, Prime 2 and 3 remastered, and maybe even ports of Samus Returns, Prime Hunters, and Federation Force.

New Mexico is now officially the first state to offer free child care to all residents.
Under the program all families, regardless of income, can get their child care fees covered.
Proponents say the program will help the economy, improve education, and boost child welfare.
