Can someone explain depression to me? I've finally being feeling decent after years of struggling then suddenly this weekend, shite again. Today I cannot be fucked with anything. Feel awful. Existence is pain. For no reason I can fathom. Wtf? 😮‍💨

I never want to complain about not feeling depressed (for the first time in about 6 years), but it's exhausting. I keep going out. 🤣

I have been uncharacteristically motivated and have been out and about a lot this week. And that means outfits! 😁

The Vinted algorithm got me good. So I really do have many new outfits. 😄 Anyway, here's my pupper interrupting my vanity like the good boi he is.

I posted everywhere else so I might as well post it here. Been splurging on clothes from Vinted recently, so I scrubbed up rather well for the pub visit.

First "night out" in a pub for about 15 years.

Bullied myself into going out yesterday, because I spend too much time home alone and it's been far too long since I visited @waxandbeans.bsky.social

There's a music one as well, so obviously I did that.

Playing Pokopia last night I found a new outfit and thought "hey, that kinda looks like me". The game then proceeds to tell me I'd found the "super nerd outfit". Thanks game.

Spending almost all my Christmas money on Street Fighter 2… …for the Commodore 64. To this day I hold that game as the reason I laugh when people complain about a game being 30fps. SF2 on the C64 didn't have a frame rate to speak of. 🤣

It didn't take long for me to go from "aw I would die for these cute pokemon" to slum landlord in Pokopia. 😄 Now excuse me I have to get back to squeezing 4 extremely large rocks with faces into an extremely small square with 3 pieces of furniture and no roof.

I'm not outright stating that I don't have a social life, but I did just spend my Saturday night 100%-ing A Game About Digging A Hole and Bugsnax.

Chains of Olympus on PSP. Not really played much of the home console versions of GoW, but loved that one and played it to death. I mean you can dress Kratos as a potato, what's not to love?

Well, there goes my interest in buying Fallout 4 on Switch 2. 🫥

Yes, they're both Game Boys; PlayStations are all PlayStations but you're probably not going to lump PS1 and PS2, 3, 4 & 5 games together.

Was looking for "best of" lists for Game Boy games on YouTube last night and got unreasonably annoyed that many of them lump Game Boy Colour games in together with original Game Boy. They are not the same.

Just noticed that Loop Hero is on sale for Switch. A weird but very addictive game, I recommend checking reviews to see if it's for you, but it's well worth its current sale price. www.nintendo.com/en-gb/Games/...

They made me wait 2 hours then called me over to say they couldn't service my car that day. So I gotta go back in a couple of weeks. Absolutely fuming. 🤬

Basically my daughter not only empties my actual bank account, she does it on Animal Crossing as well. 🤣

…so today I've been juggling 3 Switch's: mine, my daughters and the S2; travelling between islands basically to help my daughter get her island up to 3 stars and both her houses (on her island & the shared island) increased in size.

Michael Galligan @alsomiguel.bsky.social · 21/01/2026
Been playing Animal Crossing today. Because I was bored of my original island but didn't want to lose it, when I got a Switch 2 I started over and kept my OG island on my Switch lite. The Switch 2 is shared between me & my daughter so the new island is shared too…

…and if I'm honest, I feel a bit silly. 🫤 Worst thing is, my socially awkward ass will sit there and *not* get any of those things out to entertain myself, because I'll feel awkward/silly doing so.

Michael Galligan @alsomiguel.bsky.social · 20/01/2026
…So in my backpack I've got things to keep me entertained: • a Retro Gamer magazine • a Miyoo mini Flip • a Nintendo Switch Lite and a handful of games. • a kindle It was only after I packed all this in my bag that I felt like a bloody child going somewhere "boring"…

Have to take my car for service today. As a disabled person they used to pick it up for me and deliver it back, because I can't take a courtesy car (I have adaptations on my car to make it drivable for me). Anyway, this means I have to wait with my car. I'm not thrilled about this…

@ballxpit.com Are there any plans for a Switch physical release?

Because there wasn't room for full words: NS = Nintendo Switch MD = Sega Mega Drive (Genesis if you're across the pond) GB = Game Boy

I had a subscription to Commadore Format as a kid. Always looked forward to the "Power Pack" cover tapes. When I moved to consoles, Mean Machines. It being multi-format meant I could read about all the systems and games I didn't have/couldn't afford at the time. 😆

Forgot to eat and drink today, because thanks to being a hermit for months, Christmas shopping is happening today. All at once. So this is my lunch. At 3pm. 🤦🏼‍♂️ Top tier adulting, I'm sure you'll agree.
