Been playing through Leda's route in Fortune's Weave
A picture of the character Mu from Fire Emblem Fortune's Weave. She is a small, 14 year old girl with messy red hair in a green boy's tunic.A meme image that looks like a series of survey statements with a Likert scale. The statements say: I will protect it; I want to see it grow up healthy; I want to tell my friends and neighbors about it. The bubble for Strongly Agree has been checked for all three statements.

Have I played “Control Resonant”? Sorry…I’m too busy reading the story of a man who “Controls Rocinante”…that’s right, Miguel Cervantes’ immortal tale “Don Quixote de La Mancha”. So you enjoy your strange “Federal Bureau”…I’ll be delighting in the adventures of Sancho Panza and his “Friendly Burro”

Man Fortune's Weave really wants to hide the paralogue battles. "This quest only exists for three days and doesn't open until two days after the start of a free time, so you're probably on the road traveling to the quests you COULD see when the chapter started. Good luck!"

I'm fully locked in on Fire Emblem Fortune's Weave right now but you better believe a time is coming when I'm gonna tear into Thousand Hells, that game looks sick.

Two panel comic. Panel 1: two sharks are sitting in a cafe. A smaller shark holding a teacup says discreetly to the other, “okay, look at this couple behind you - but don’t make it obvious.” Panel 2: the other shark, a Great White shark, turns its gigantic head in the most obvious way possible to look across the room at some sharks chatting at another table.

wizard interview
PANEL 1: A shirtless tattooed wizard in sweatpants walking to a mobile home. WIZARD: "What's this now?"
PANEL 2: Wizard in closeup. WIZARD: "Problem is most people have tangled up their idea of wizardry with a pastoral never-was England."
PANEL 3: Wizard in medium shot, smoking. WIZARD: "But, well, Indiana needs wizards, too. An' maybe it ain't the worst thing in the world if we had more wizards who c'n change the oil in a car."
PANEL 4: Close up side view of the wizard's face, still smoking. WIZARD: "Like ev'rybody *loves* Gandalf. But Gandalf'll never teach a local kid how to shoplift baby formula to help his momma."
PANEL 5: Wizard in medium shot, looking down. WIZARD: "Nah, people don't like magic around. Reminds 'em they *could* have a different way of doing things than the one that hurts em so bad, an' lotsa folks can't handle that."

Audiobook listeners: what are some activities y'all do with your hands when you're listening to an audiobook? Gaming doesn't work for me because my attention gets too focused on game mechanics so I don't hear the words of the book. But I don't want to do chores every time I listen to a book either.

Three panel comic. Panel 1: a horseshoe crab watches as a variety of prehistoric creatures swim towards an ethereal light. An ammonite calls back to the crab, “come on, horseshoe crab! We’re all evolving!” Panel 2: the horseshoe crab stays in position and replies, “nahh that’s crazy” Panel 3: the horseshoe crab is superimposed in front of a future premonition: a rather miserable-looking human slouched in the glow of a desktop computer. The horshoe crab swims away and says, “good luck tho”

Panel 1-
Scorpion- Sorry! Sorry! I didn't choose this!
woman- what?

Flower- Damn straight

The bar for progressive policies is: "did this unilaterally solve the entire gigantic systemic issue without making a single person sad?" The bar for conservative policies is: "did the people pushing this yell out the name of a real problem before doing something unrelated, cruel and ineffective?"

Slowly but surely chipping away at Blue Prince's...I guess you could call it post-game? This portion of the game isn't hitting quite as much for me story-wise and the puzzles are way more obtuse but I still enjoy when I finally get the right configuration of circumstances to chip away at a big goal.

Observation: Blue Prince is a great teaching tool on dungeon puzzle design for TTRPG game masters. Like even just the basic antechamber mechanism is a great example of how to build a puzzle that serves as a bottleneck while ensuring the player has multiple ways to arrive at a solution.

In good news, I had a ridiculously blessed Blue Prince run tonight resulting in multiple major milestones towards the game's overarching meta-puzzles. In bad news, I accidentally stayed up WAY too late and need to get up in like 5 hours. 😭
