Should have been sub 1hr 50min, but my goal was under 2 hours, and we hit it despite not having a perfect run. Prepping for lunch. Biggest goal is to just get ahead of the bottlenecks.

The Buffalo Bill fanbase is legitimately the most delusional I have ever seen. "Congrats on your Super Bowl!" Pats were in one last year, but sure, whatever makes you sleep at night. "Drake was awful in the Super Bowl!" Josh Allen had five turnovers in the loss at Denver.

Gears games had pride flags in 2019, but the people who monetize rage bait don't want their audience to know that -- maybe they don't even know that themselves, because they don't do research; they just react. If more people recognized they're getting played for revenue, we'd be in a better spot.

The video game industry has always been volatile (I published Press Reset in 2021!) but the skeleton key to understanding the current state of things is this: Big games now cost 10x to make what they did 15 years ago but most do not generate even close to 10x the revenue. Simple as that
