I built myself an entire PC just to do this:

"Hates you in particular"

Yes, I hired them.

It begins

I did it. It took me 106 hours, but I did it. (great game, I’ll be thinking about it for a long time)

I’m ready for the weekend:

Quantum Break has aged like wine

What kind of person would upgrade their GPU and then use it to play Quantum Break at ultra settings/140fps? (me that's who)

- sold my Kindle
- spent the $ on books

I’m still not ready to shut up about how much I enjoy Death Stranding 2. I just killed a giant squid with a guitar.

This is how I'm spending my 30s:

Putting my 5070 Ti to good use tonight

(I'm actually having a great time)

I didn't upgrade my GPU for Baldur's Gate 3 (it ran fine before), but now that I can run it even faster @ ultra settings, I'm finally ready to see how act 1 ends. That GPU bottleneck was getting in my way more than I thought. I'm able to hit 140fps now.

It took some work, but Persona 5 Royal is running smoothly and uncropped in 3440x1440. I'm not ready to start playing it yet, but it's ready when I want to. (damn this music is good)

I have a habit of replaying games and complaining about my backlog, so I'm trying something new. I've sorted my Steam backlog by review scores, and I'm starting with the games I haven't played or finished.

Now THIS is more like it.

Replaying FFVII Remake on PC to remind myself what happens in that game before I finally play FFVII Rebirth was the right move. This game looks incredible @ 120fps with the ultrawide res fix.

I've been staring at this for 10 minutes

I'm still stuck in my "look around in disbelief that a computer I built can make a game look this good" phase

One thing that makes me happy to be alive at 35 is that I haven't become an angry idiot. I didn't grow up with happy people, so I'm winging this, but the fact that I still enjoy working on video games and taking my airpods on 2+ hour long walks is probably a good sign.

Check out this hoodie I spent too much money on

My favourite photo from last night. NIN were playing Vessel, and during the chorus, the lights would switch between white and red, so every other phone in the photo is red.

Accidentally booked myself a giant hotel room, so shout out to anyone who still plays our weird game. You’re the reason I get to run away from home to see my favourite bands.

(yes that’s my Switch 2)

I’ve missed Toronto so damn much.
I have 5 hours to kill until the concert.
August 23, 2025 at 6:06 PM
15 years ago, I had no money, no job, and I was sitting alone in a Toronto train station with a backpack full of clothes and a pair of headphones.

Today I’m taking a train to Toronto by myself to stay at a nice hotel and stand on the floor of a Nine Inch Nails concert.

A coworker gave me this today
(yes it’s made out of metal)

Help. Now that I have a PC that can run Oblivion Remastered, all I want to do is play that game. I didn't think this upgrade through.
