I was hitting that 80s playlist pretty hard, for sure.

Obi-Wan (dignified): A lightsaber. The weapon of a Jedi Knight. Not as clumsy or random as a blaster… an elegant weapon for a more civilized age.

Luke: Great. And what are you gonna use it for?

Obi-Wan: Slicing some bloke’s arm off in a pub fight

Before there were WoW (and Genshin Impact) killers, there were Ultima killers! And EverQuest was the leading one as the millennium turned - and the first MMORPG I sank solid amounts of time into.

Lovely to see it being reviewed in this issue of Next Gen magazine - and walking away with five stars.

Wife is not a gamer. Handed my Steam Deck to her so she could enjoy the opening of Ori and the Blind Forest and now she won't give it back.

Do you hear it?
Beware the sirens call and heed the old warnings and be safe!

An ancient evil wakes from slumber, Behind the guise of Christmas cheer.

Those who hear her sirens call, know that soon the end is near.

If you hear her thou should be wary

The Complete Calvin and Hobbes is on sale for 60-80 dollars down from the 250 it normally is at Walmart, Target, and Amazon at the moment.

A solid gift for anyone in your life who is inclined.

My new Steam Deck OLED arrived yesterday and I forgot to eat until around 8pm. This thing definitely won't affect my life in any negative ways.

Still one of the best controllers around, hands down. And it is an absolute steal at this price!

Fun fact: Not all Cardassians wore the headgear, these two were just the equivalent of that one kid in 5th grade who wore a football helmet everywhere.
Cardassians in Star Trek used to wear this little face thing but then everyone made fun of them instead of trying to understand their culture so they got rid of it

Steam Deck doesn't arrive until tomorrow. It's taunting me.

He looks like Hillary Clinton if she had a beard and a heroin addiction.
These photos are Dana Carvey impersonating Al Pacino (he DID include “Say hello to my little friend, whew”) but it’s impossible to make Dana Carvey look like Al Pacino. However, he does look like SOMEONE. But who?

Take the WHOM DOES DANA CARVEY IN AL PACINO MAKEUP ACCIDENTALLY RESEMBLE Challenge!

Last night I finished my 2nd watch-thru of The Penguin. What's missing from a fresh watch is gained by all the little things missed the first time. Gut-punching scenes still made me wince.

I really hope all involved in the show see continued success, and that the people in charge make more stuff.

I just redeemed all my Humble Choice games for the last 6 months, just plain forgot to redeem them.

Felt like an early Christmas! 🎁
