Wow, Ocarina of Time remake looks great!

A screencap from the trailer for Kirby and the World Beyond where Kirby is holding a giant glowing sword that looks weirdly like the Master Sword and wearing a long green hat that looks a lot like Link's hat. This post is made in jest, as Kirby is very cute and fun, whereas I think the Ocarina of Time remake looks horrendous.

Melina turned 7-months old today and went on a little hike! She's handling it well!

Your Rogue Trader posting led to me trying the game, and now look what happened this weekend.

I can't be expected to work in these conditions.

Melina is teething, which means she occasionally leaves blood stains on her toys that make it look like she murdered them.

I look so smart right now for finally selling all my Tencent stock last year.

Melina's hair is starting to grow out more, so now she has goofy little swirls on her head.

That's probably my most nitpicky complaint so far. But there's also stuff like this, which is just useless data without accompanying sentiment. You need four categories here, Yes and I want to, Yes but I don't want to, No but I want to, and No and I don't want to.

Melina has started going to the crate by herself for naps and, I gotta say, it's pretty great when a puppy is functionally training herself!

Quick question before I start, is this heresy?

Damn dude, it's really not that hard to get your idea across as long as you, like, have an idea.

I still love Metroid and Samus enough to have grit my teeth through 100%, but that was maybe the most disappointing twelve hours of gaming I've ever had. I can't believe I waited eighteen years for this. I bought a Switch 2 mostly for this! I'm stunned!

Gonna start off the week with a wild shot, but hey, @samreich.bsky.social and @dropout.tv, if you're interested in publishing an indie video game...hit me up!

Couldn't get the Sonic Secret Lair drop in time? Not to worry, the Edge of Eternities set is dropping soon with a card illustrated by my favorite artist/wife! That's at least as cool as a fast hedgehog!

Surely there are better poses for an 'I' they could have used.

A sign for the "Live Fit Wellness Center" with a silhouette of a person flexing in place of the letter 'I'. The silhouette looks more like an 'A' due to the way the legs are spread for the pose.

I still got it, more or less. No chance anything less than a full combo would make top 100 on the old Rock Band or Guitar Hero leaderboards, though. Kids these days.

I bought a bunch of books, but all my friends are already in other active campaigns with me, so if I'll ever use them is a mystery.

I'm not much for souvenirs, but I grabbed these two while at the Mugiwara Store in Shibuya two weeks ago and they go so nicely with these frames I got for them.

Say what you will about the rampant voter suppression or the Dem's abhorrent failures to create a platform that is actively appealing to people, but the reality is that there are over 70 million people who wanted this. Like at the end of the day, what do we do about that?

I went through all the trouble of redoing my main pawn to look like Frieren, only to find out at the very end that you can't change their name. Then I went through all the trouble of redoing my Arisen to look like Himmel, only to find out that blue isn't a hair color option.
