Good day in Pokémon GO!

It's fascinating to see the changes in one company's logo over the years.

We’re rapidly approaching (if we’re not already in) a situation where rising prices will result in these products pricing themselves above their target audiences.

I recently got back into Pokémon GO with a new account. It’s a good time.

It’s no coincidence my X account is now deleted. I also plan on deleting my Meta accounts shortly, too.

Grok's new "feature" that allows users to undress women in photos posted to X is a new low for the platform. If you're somehow still active over there, I urge you to let this be your final straw.

I think there's an outside chance I beat a game today...

What’s that? I can’t pick super short games to inflate the numbers?

Stop me.

I beat 17 games in 2024. So far, I've beat 11 games in 2025. Going to lock in with the goal of matching 2024!

I really dig these. Yes, you can 3D print, but as someone without a printer, they're a great ready-to-buy option!
I recently picked up the Mouse Mode Grips (Switch 2) by Venom, here are my thoughts! strt-slct.com/2025/11/30/v...

Just want you to know that when I asked Geoff why he gave the silent treatment to an open letter written by his own "future of games" program (& co-signed by 3000+ industry peers), he replied:

"Because that's my show and nobody gets to tell me how I should use my platform". 💀💀💀

I really dig how the Dragon Quest HD-2D remake box arts line up. It's a shame the Switch 2 version isn't as perfect, but still pretty good.

It infuriates me there isn't a good resource for which Mac games are Apple Silicon native. With the heft of Rosetta 2 support being removed in macOS 28 onward, now would be a really good time to compile a list of games which are built for the modern Mac architecture.

Had a lot of fun with this one. If you like retro games, let me know what you think!

The year isn’t over yet, but I’ve already played plenty — from modern favourites to retro throwbacks.

I've really enjoyed Liquid Glass, but I am glad to see Apple introduce a toggle to make it tinted - my eyes aren't what they used to be!

It baffles me how WordPress has gotten simultaneously better and worse since I’ve last used it.

There’s such a steep learning curve, but the end results do seem like an improvement.

Yes, I was very late to video games this year!
