Looking forward to it. Recently picked up Fine Art on vinyl.
The new album shares its name with my Bernese Mountain Dog. Who we named during my renewed interest in trying to learn (some) Gaeilge.

Day 3: Hard to say. I think I will go with XIII. I didn't really connect with any characters beyond liking or disliking a design. The storytelling didn't pull me in during the time I played it. And the world felt very empty.

Day 2: This is very close to a toss up between Final Fantasy VIII, IX and X depending on the day. It is a really hard choice to make. I think IX edges it out more days than not.

I absolutely love Final Fantasy VIII!! I can understand why people don't love it the way I do. I played so much time playing Triple Triad. The aesthetic of the game are so cool. The Ragnarok is the coolest airship.

Thank you. That's all I can ask for.

No, this one. It reorders for every minor change (such as editing the name). A way to mark complete would be good too.

Totally fair. And sure I am only one opinion. I like my tokens to be specific, so if I have two with the same name/power and toughness I can be clear about which is which.

But they are very cool!

I really like the design. I think the only thing I don't love is the "ability/damp" bit, draws my eye looking for a keyword.

Reminds me of Vin from Mistborn. Looks really cool.

I finally got to see the end of The Iron Giant this year. When we rented it on VHS, the VCR ate the tape near the end.

How Dare!! /s
I also opened Vivi and I don't think I could have been happier. He has long been one of my favorite characters in the Final Fantasy series. The Cloud does look sweet though. One of my friends opened it in theirs.

I felt so empty after listening to this episode. It is always one thing to _know_ that the camps were awful but every time I listen to someone describe just how fucked it was in very specific details it enrages me and leaves me feeling empty.

Great episode, people should listen to it.

After I moved from Dublin down the country the place where I ended up making friends was a new Local Games Store playing Magic the Gathering. I wish there were more spaces like them for other hobbies.

I'm looking forward to seeing them again in Dublin next year in October. I've only been a fan for a few years but they quickly jumped up in the ranks of my favourite artists.

These editions are gorgeous, I have the whole Discworld collection of them. Currently boxed up after moving but I can't wait to re-shelve them.

Absolutely, it was such a breath of fresh air. I listen to a bunch of CZM shows and it was really nice to have one where they can just relax (as much as you can when you are still technically working) and have a good time.

Absolutely!! The foils are so pretty!! I was rewarded with My Boy!!
