One of the kids in my daughter’s P1 class photo has the same expression as Hide the Pain Harold and I can’t un-see it

"Influencers" really will receive a box of swag and IMMEDIATELY turn around and sell it for massive profit. Sometimes they even brag about it. It's the games press who are corrupt tho, remember

It took me more time than I’d like to admit to identify which was the artwork and which was the photo

I don’t use my gaming PC that much. Couple of times a week. But every time I do all the bloody superfluous apps that PC component companies insist you install demand to be updated. Motherboard. Keyboard. Mouse. Headset. Nevermind Windows updates and new graphics card drivers. It’s infuriating.

My #9games. Pretty basic. Ask me again tomorrow and it’ll probably be different. Almost chose Resi 7 instead of Resi 4.

Final Fantasy VII
Baldur’s Gate II
Civilization II

Today just before midday, this one-eyed fox jumped up on top of our garden shed and hung out there for about 15 minutes. Not exactly a common occurrence in broad daylight in Edinburgh!

I’m going to get one of Silent Hill Townfall or Control Resonant now and pick up the other later when it’s cheaper. Honestly torn between which to buy… and then there’s Onimusha to consider

My first game of Andromeda’s Edge last night. I’m a sucker for big space games so naturally I really enjoyed this. It reminded me quite a bit of Dune: Imperium mechanically and scratches quite a different itch to my favourite space 4X, Eclipse. Looking forward to playing it again! #boardgames

I’ve been a bit worried about this since I saw the first gameplay trailers. I loved Control and love Remedy so seeing a spate of reviews saying much the same thing is a huge disappointment.

I’m suddenly low key obsessed with the idea of finding the Sony mini hi-fi system I bought in 1998 or 1999 (and which died in 2005 or 2006) and buying it. Possibly repairing a broken unit if needs be.

Going to start a thread of books I’ve read recently. First up, Slow Gods by Claire North. I found this utterly engrossing. Very thought-provoking with an exploration of neurodivergence, gender, culture, facism and more in the wrapper of a story of civilisations trying to survive a supernova event.

Considering my recent search was for the company a particularly persistent and annoying sales goon who has been cold calling me works for, I’m not really sure what this says about Andy Burnham

The Switch 2 port of Cyberpunk 2077 is extremely impressive. Image quality is way higher than I expected, performance mode frame rate is entirely playable.

A dice tower from the board game Fate of the Fellowship. The four black dice all show tree symbols, meaning that the players have lost the game.

I’ve known about Secrid wallets for a while, and always thought they were quite cool, but I never knew they also provide so many career opportunities for disabled people in their production processes. You can read more about it here secrid.com/en-de/storie... #valuingcapabilities #accessibility

I absolutely love Living Streets in Edinburgh this month and wish we could have it permanently. Couple of things though… closed streets need to be signposted further in advance and cars who come on to the closed street anyway should be heavily penalised. Way too many cars on the Cowgate today

Given how the Johnson and Truss period showed how vulnerable a system based on precedent and convention is in the face of bad actors, a written constitution can only be a good thing. Good luck actually making it happen though.

Someone posted the Ting Thai Caravan green curry recipe on Edinburgh Reddit the other day. I made it tonight and it was absolutely phenomenal. Hands down the best Thai curry I’ve made at home - I’d have been happy to eat it in a restaurant.

We took a trip out to Howth today on the last day of this summer’s Ireland holiday. Back to Edinburgh tomorrow.

Looking down at the Baily Lighthouse on Howth Head in Dublin, Ireland from the cliffs above on a sunny summer day. The lighthouse is in midground and left of centre, at the end of the headland. Most of the foreground is dominated by the sea and the cliffs of inlet by the headland. The background is the view south across the entrance to Dublin Bay. Dalkey Island is in the upper right corner. Also visible in silhouette are Bray Heqd and the Sugarloa

The Princes Street and Salisbury Crags are combining to put strain on the city. Maybe there needs to be a message to the public: please walk, cycle or use public transport if you can so the transport network and emergency services can do the best they can for the city. @edinburghminute.com

I was pretty much forced by my parents into a summer fruit picking job in Ireland aged 14. It was fucking bleak and the pay was dreadful. Pickers were supervised by older teenagers who were drunk on power and would regularly take full punnets for themselves and collect the cash.

This is astonishingly tone deaf after laying off thousands of staff within the last week or so, with more job losses to come. Also, Fallout 4 was wank.
