What the shit... Diablo 2 expansion...

A bit wild last couple of months, but things are getting back to some semblance of normal. Now if we can just fix this tyrannical Russian Dictator that somehow became president of the US, I'd be perfect.

I discovered #EU4, and it has consumed my life lately. Turns out I really like map games. Which.... considering how long I've also loved and played #hoi4 that maybe should have been more obvious.

Vikings went out with a whimper. Sam Darnold went from comeback player of the year to barely worth vet minimum in just 2 games. *sigh* there's always next year. #MinnesotaVikings

That wasn't just a bad #Vikings game. That was one of the worst offensive performances in like 4 decades bad right when we needed to play our best. My hype is dead and it feels like we're a one and done playoff team after whatever that game was. MVP to vet min in a single game.

Of course the #MinnesotaVikings are good this year. The world is ending so it's only natural that they will win the super bowl as the final sign of the end of days.

It's my favorite time of year to tell my mom that she knows this is a Happy Honda days house when she says Merry Christmas. Why yes, I am the family disappointment why do you ask? #Christmas #holidays

My cat just dramatically closed 3 doors at 4am today. What a weird way to wake up

Got my event Emblem and I've just been playing my dumb Gyrados deck until I'm sure I've either won or lost and then conceding to not break people's streaks. It's Christmas time in #tcgpocket #Pokémon #cardgames

Nothing has been quite as humbling as going from Card Games where I'm pretty damn good at calculating my odds and finding my outs to win games I have no right to win, to no rng #chess where I don't think i could find checkmate if I had 6 queens to 1 pawn.

I really don't like the new Pokémon pocket event. In a game with this much coin flip rng on top of normal card game rng, you want me to win multiple games in a row to complete the event? -11/10 on this one. Please don't do it again. #pokemonpocket #tcg #phonegame

When I say I'm starting as really really bad at #chess, like dumpster fire tier bad... this game is what i mean. So many missed opportunities because I'm just not looking at the whole board. chess.com/game/121382130364

This #Vikings team is not inspiring confidence that they're a legit contender. OL playing like they're the 33rd best OL in the league. Only reason we're in it is cause Falcons gonna #Falcon

I'm beginning to suspect that I'm Dumpster Fire Tier bad at #chess. Oh well. We all gotta start somewhere and for me that's apparently at sub 500 elo.

Got myself my own chess set since the only other one I owned was given to me when I was like 8 and is Lord of the Rings themed. #chess

Well so far in my chess journey, my early game is solid but my mid game is terrible. I lose track of positions and tend to blunder pieces very easily. It's fine. All good things take time. #chess #newhobby

Finished Ted Lasso last night. It was an absolutely incredible show, might even be an all time great. If you rotate your streaming services like I do, consider putting apple TV in the mix for this show alone. Totally worth it. Roy Kent is probably my favorite. Love his arc. #TedLasso #NewShow

The hardest part about learning chess when coming from tcgs is that luck isn't a factor. I didn't lose my queen from a bad draw. I lost my queen because I played poorly and didn't think ahead. #chess #cardgames

After the election results, I decided I wanted to just disengage from my normal spaces and try something new, like Chess. Today chess.com has a black Friday sale on their sub price. My goal is to be very reasonably good. Maybe I can hit a 1400 Elo next year or something. #chess #newhobby

I've joined the social media exodus so this is my first post huh.... So I guess: Normalize always pressing the thanks button after a match. It's just a game y'all and some people just like Mewtwo/Pikachu. Not the players fault the deck is good y'all. #tcgthings #Pokémon #cardgames #pokemontcgpocket
