He definitely didn't seem to pick the right guy to fight.

The worst part about it all is that they still know that they need the skilled workers, they just want to pay us for lesser versions of the roles they really need. Going from a full process translator to an editor trying to fight through the hallucinatory demons that AI dreams up has been rough.

Redwall
Shannara
Tolkien

These are the series/authors that have an entire bookshelf dedicated to them in my house. There's something about this brand of fantasy that saved my life as a kid from a rough family. They taught me that a good meal, a good friend, and a purpose are all we need in life.

Cane's fries exist exclusively so that we don't have to eat cane's sauce with a spoon in public.

Fair enough. I made it my goal this play through to catch the legendary fish in winter year 1. I might as well have been playing dark souls with the way I was fighting for my life.

Indies are maybe a little genre-stagnant, but the way they iterate and innovate stylistically right now feels amazing. I love the fact that I can pick a genre and find 6 games under 5 dollars that all present themselves entirely differently in terms of aesthetics. It's gaming heaven for me in 2024.

I'm super excited for PoE2, but I'm also very much prepared for the whiplash that it's going to give me coming from the Stardew 1.6 run that my partner and I have been playing through.

The markets would be destroyed by mysterious time travellers. I've been to Animal Crossing. I've seen what people will do to make a few extra bells.

It makes recommending games so difficult. "This game has an amazing combat and cosmetic system. Yes, you will have to mine 1000 rocks to build a bed, but I promise it'll be worth the 4 hours of dying on repeat"

The average algorithm decides that I either see every post my favorite artists makes about their work the second they post them, or I will see a reply to a post 6 months from now that implies they might do art. It's sad that there's no in between.

Living in the south I can only assume that a "town square" website would be populated by 3 chain restaurants, 1 barber shop, a broken down train, and 56 boarded up office buildings.

I wonder if it can be socially engineered like the customer support bots. Instead of getting a free flight, we find a way to make the PopeAI give out free indulgences.

I just need to hear the unhinged Tyson quote after he knocks out a literal toddler version of Jake Paul
