Just living the neat life. Since neat rhymes with skeet. Well, I thought it was funny and cool anyway.

Here Mondays to Fridays.

I vaguely remember something called "Promosky" when I was here last so let's try that again (and for the record, I'm sticking around this time even if it isn't that often).

I like:

- Video games (not as much these days, though)
- Books
- Anime and manga
- Films and TV shows
- Working
Looks like I'll finish Yotei's story tonight then I can go about getting the platinum. I rarely do that but here, I'll make an exception since it's been so damn addictive.

Review to follow.

Not aiming to get too much for Christmas. For a start, JUST physical games; can't really support digital anymore until physical no longer becomes viable.

Other than that, some DVDs and other shit. Quality over quantity.

Not much but it'll do.

Afternoon, all!

It's the 1st December.

You all know what that means. 🎄😊

Nearly time for bed. Finishing my interview prep in the morning then playing Yotei the rest of the day with the aim of finishing Chapter 2 cause I won't be playing it again until Thursday.

Till then, night ya'll! 👋

I love being in my late 30s so much. I love not giving a shit about being famous or successful anymore. I love prioritizing being comfortable, and being around people who love me.

Could do without the aching joints and looming perimenopause, but everything else? Golden.

If you see this, post an anime you love!

Fullmetal Alchemist Brotherhood's better than 2003, fact.

Done most of the content in Ghost of Yotei so now I can mainly focus on the story. Not as strong as Tsushima but it's still been as addictive as all hell. 😍

SO... I'm pretty much done with Fortnite. There were statements made by Tim Sweeney saying that AI usage doesn't need to be disclosed, and then AI usage was found all over this current season- from art to sprays to in-game songs. Between that, and the upcoming shitty wizard collab... Yeah, I'm done.

Watched some documentaries earlier for a change from endless crime dramas. One was about the Beast from the East from early 2018.

REALLY hoping we don't get a repeat of that. 😬

I've found it better right now - since I'm still looking for another job which takes time in itself as well as preparing for interviews and spending time with my folks - to focus on just ONE game at a time.

Lately, it's been Ghost of Yotei and while it doesn't quite reach the same heights as

Let me give some insight on this, as a producer in the dub industry who worked with major streamers, who's witnessed first-hand where this push for AI is coming from.

tl;dr: Only CEOs want this. Tell them how much you hate it. Be loud, email, call, @, post. You will kill this.

🧵⬇️
The only thing less human than these AI dub performances is the decision to sign off on them

A company this big can pay human actors a decent wage, not produce slop that intentionally removes the human element.

I know it says Monday to Fridays in my bio but it's the day before December officially starts, I've applied for two more jobs and Sundays are boring so I'm playing more Ghost of Yotei.

When I game, I skeet. It seems to work. 😄

Firstly, to be specific, this is the prequel film No Game: No Life Zero.

Secondly......AI sucks and nothing will make me change that opinion. 😒

I agree, but some grown-ups *do* need to check themselves online when shouting angry shit about a show that’s *specifically made for children*, like Doctor Who.

Those kids don’t need rants about how what they love doesn’t meet your standards.

They need fan friends that can make a cool Dalek voice.
When I see someone criticize a piece of media other than explicit toddler stuff, whether it’s Star Wars or MCU or K-Pop Demon Hunters or whatever, by saying it’s “made for children,” this is all I can hear:

Some people I used to be associated with in the past have decided to just outright block me instead of letting me explain my inconsistency (making new accounts then deleting them).

There was never anything malicious associated with it, I've just always been unsure about social media and
