Thanks for this Laura, great write up! I'm heading over at the end of Sept to this, and this is so helpful for prepping ❤️ Hyped for the Takanami!

i missed the Hank on the far left too for political balance

checkmate, atheists.

literally who even are u

S-tier graphics work

Looks like tarragon :)

ttrpg travel show finally incoming? 👀

yes, thanks! GoG edition worked a treat! Finished the opening and it ran like a dream, now to sit down and complete it :) (and inevitably become hooked on the series and play all of them)

January Books:

In Search of the Dark Ages - Michael Wood

Horrible Histories: Cut-Throat Celts - Classic Terry Deary Banger

History of Britain: Vol. 1 - Simon Schama

then Night Watch, Wee Free Men, Dodger and Monstrous Regiment - All by Terry Pratchett

Next up is Germinal by Emile Zola!

Other Jan Videogames:

Dabbled in Dragon Age: Origins on GoG - After Steam version crashed too many times I bit the bullet and got the GoG version, barely made it out of the tutorial before crashing out and playing The Long Dark again tho :)

Also played Massive Assault (2003), trying to high score

January TV:

Rewatched Outnumbered the whole way through to celebrate the new special, tried and failed to get into Ted Lasso (sorry Brian Trunk), then rewatched The Newsroom, Studio 60 and random Sopranos episodes

January Films:

Finally watched the Shining, Wind That Shakes the Barley and A Few Good Men so can cross those off the list.

Also watched 28 Days later, Furiosa, The Thing and Platoon - all of which are v good, esp. Platoon!

Rewatches: Top Gun: Maverick (4 Times), Edge of Tomorrow (Once) and 13Hrs

January - I'm doing this in monthly installments so I'll actually do it.

Games: @thelongdark.bsky.social, Hunter: COTW, & @playbalatro.com - Hinterland's Magnum Opus continues to impress and take up far too much of my time, definitely my most beloved title atm. Hunting Red Deer and Balatroing also.

the most correct take

Hi! Please could you add me? Thank you! :D

im taking this as a challenge
