I can't believe it took me this long to discover Little Shop of Horrors.

The puppetry of Audrey II looks so good it felt like I was losing my mind, and the Menken/Ashman music duo?!

PHEEEEEEEEEW, I'm obsessed.
A picture of Audrey II, the carnivorous plant from Little Shop of Horrors. Audrey is 3/4 turned towards the camera, more closed. OMINOUSLY.

Gave myself Ina Garten vibes with that last one
A meme of Ina Garten cooking. The text says: "Of course if you don't have time, 'just write the damn thing' is fine"

Lately.
A two-panel screenshot of the show Community. A man in a tie-dye shirt says "No worries, man." On the bottom panel, a haunted looking Vaughn says, "Yeah, some worries man. Some worries."

I would die for Owlbear Cub
A screenshot of Baldur's Gate 3. A baby owlbear sits on the grass, hunkered down, scowling slightly, and ADORABLE. The owlbear cub's dialogue box says "Hoot, hoot!"

I had the joy of watching @aabria.bsky.social at work yesterday.

An absolute masterclass in DMing. The imagery. The callbacks. The characters! The banter!!!!

Also, she was an incredibly kind and generous, staying to talk to everyone who wanted to say hi after the show. Hello?????? An actual angel
A zoomed out view of a large theatre. People on stage are sitting at a c-shaped table playing DND. A selfie of yours truly with actual angel and stellar DM Aabria Iyengar.

"Hello, can you please close these JIRAs out by EOD" but you've gotten similar requests from five other team members and it's already 2 p.m.
A screencap of Lucy from Fallout looking strained and a little roughed up with a small smile. "Okey dokey" is the subtitle.

Super Mario RPG Bowser is the best Bowser
A screenshot from Super Mario RPG. Bowser faces away from the camera looking down at the ground, upset. Mario watches nearby. A haiku displays on the screen: "Like the moon over The day, my genius and brawn Are lost on these fools."

"You are not a machine. Stop grinding."

First read of 2025. A much-needed reminder as we leap back into work in the midst of the "new year, new you" storm.

Picked up Arranger in the Steam Winter Sale and it's GREAT so far.

The Furniture & Mattress devs heard we liked puzzles, so they puzzled some puzzles into our puzzles.👌👌👌
A cover image of the Arranger game. The protagonist Jemma, a small girl in a big green coat strides boldly across a busy cartoon landscape.

I know nothing about eSports but this absolutely looked like a clip of a mock awards show from an episode of 30 Rock or something
A screencap from the 2024 Game Awards. An announcer in a black dress is on the right-hand side of the screen. On the left, a list of nominees for Best Esports Athlete. 33, Aleksib, Chovy, Faker, Zywood, Zmjjkk.

Specifically 3BH's "City of the Black Rose" Season 2.

SO GOOD.
A meme split into two rows. On the top row, a Black man looks disappointed. Text next to this photo says "getting ready for my run". On the bottom row the same man looks happy. Text next to this says "I have TTRPG actual plays to listen to."

Was in my local comics shop yesterday and totally forgot that so many Archie jokes are just "guys are horny"
The horniest Veronica comic cover ever. Veronica dives off a diving board in her indoor pool. We see her full body from the side. Outside, Archie and Reggie are being creeps????????

Things I do outside of video games: cooking and taking photos. A few of my latest:

Fattet Lahme Wa Hummus (Savory Lebanese Bread Pudding With Short Rib and Chickpeas) // Basque Pumpkin Spice Cheesecake
A brown glass serving dish on a blue and white patterned tablecloth. The dish is covered in chickpeas, parsley, and yogurt sauce. A bird's eye view shot of a cheesecake on some crumpled brown parchment. The edges of the cheesecake are very brown and it has a slice out of it. The cake server sits next to the cake on the paper.

Now I feel like they're trying to get ME.
A screenshot of a local newspaper advice column title. "I'm building a carriage house at the end of my driveway which will include a gym. I know I'm privileged, okay? But does that give tradespeople the right to act like children around me? Ask Lisi"

My local newspaper's "advice column" has the market cornered on boomer clickbait.
A clip from a newspaper website with a smiling white woman in a circular vignette. "My new neighbours are extremely entitled millennials. They're loud, rude and messy--and they're attracting raccoons. Ask Lisi"
