One thing I like about GTA 5 (yes, very topical I know) is that you can tell the city was designed to exist seperately to the game’s missions. There are cool locations that make the city feel more alive and real that aren’t used in the story. They exist because they would exist in a real city.

I’ve not played D&D in a few years as it’s not a system I have much affection for, but… All that new Warcraft content is mighty tempting! With my weekly 40K game I can’t really run it myself right now though. Anyone planning on GM’ing it? Orc Warrior LFG 👀

As a teen, and into my early twenties, I really felt like I wanted to play every new shiny video game. But these days I seem to just play and replay the same familiar games. At most it’s stuff like Zero Company where it’s an unofficial XCOM spin-off. Or Dawnwalker which is basically the Witcher.

I’m in my late-30s and every September I still feel a spike of anxiety. Thankfully it’s always followed by overwhelming relief when I remember I don’t have to go back to school.

I decided to play Wingman (basically a poor girl’s Ace Combat) in VR last night. It was fun! And very immersive! The headache I got after one mission was immersive too 😬 I should use my VR headset more. I’ve definitely not used it enough to justify how much I paid for it 😗

A couple of y’all are current World of Warcraft players, right? I’ve got a question for you. If I came back, I’d have a few expansions to pick from to level up through. What’s the best one post Battle for Azeroth? 🤔 For reference my favourite expansions are Burning Crusade and Legion.

World of Warcraft Forever looks absolutely delightful 💖 I was never that jazzed about Classic. But the idea of an upgraded version of the original, that won’t ever advance beyond 60, and has expanded versions of the old zones? The Horde is calling me home ☺️

Okay yeah, Dawnwalker is my game of the year. I’ve not gotten so obsessed and sucked into a game like this since Baldur’s Gate 3. All I want to do is play the game 24/7. I want to do everything, see everything, meet everyone. My life is at a standstill until I finish it 😗

So I started playing Dawnwalker yesterday and holy crap has that game got its claws in me. I ended up playing all day, and then when Vox went to sleep I used Remote Play to keep playing all night via my PC 😬 I mean, it makes sense. It’s Witcher 3 meets vampires. That’s just video game crack.

I finished Zero Company last night. There’s some very cool stuff in the third act, and lots of clever references to the Clone Wars TV show, and some other surprisng references too 👀 Overall, I loved it! Excellent game. Really scratched that XCOM itch. The devs deserve a lot of praise for it.

I miss the old internet of 1999. Asking Jeeves to find new tiny niche websites, where I’d then join their little BBS and make new friends. Now with the way I use the internet I feel like it may as well just be about 5 websites and that’s it. Convenience has killed the internet’s quirky creativity

Holy crap, this weekend’s new Bleach episode was one of the most exciting episodes of anime I’ve ever seen 👀 It made me feel like a teenager again, gasping in shock and then shouting at the screen, rooting for Ichigo and friends while being totally immersed in the action. God I love being a nerd.

Sometimes you finish a book that alters your life completely. Yes, You Are Trans Enough by: @ohmiagod.bsky.social Is absolutely one of them Lore Drop! 2 month ago, after going through 30 years of life believing myself to be a, rather feminine, depressed cis-male my egg cracked and it cracked hard.

I hate the screen dimming effect they do on so much modern anime, whenever there’s rapid movement. I bought a fancy ass TV for a reason. If I wanna get a headache from violently flickering lights and have a seizure, then I’ll have a damn seizure. My body, my rules!

Batman Returns for the Mega Drive doesn’t get enough credit. It was so slick and moody, the developers used the hardware incredibly well. Just look at this screenshot! It was gorgeous! This is the statue fight I talked about in my book. My book about being trans, and also occasionally Batman.

Been thoroughly enjoying You Are Trans Enough by @ohmiagod.bsky.social ! Mia’s story about gender dysphoria is all eerily recognizable. I’m more or less the same age and grew up in similar circumstances. It’s like reading a variation on my own life.

I think I’m getting dumber as I get older. In my teens and twenties I never used video game guides. I loved the feeling of working out solutions on my own. Yesterday I finally made some progress in Dredge, after sailing around aimlessly for like 6 hours, by looking up 3 different online guides.

They can change “guidelines” and laws as much as they want but I ain’t going back to using men’s toilets. I know who I am and I will continue to act accordingly. I mean, have you ever used a men’s toilet in a train station? It’s a pit of pungent despair. Never again. Never. Again.

I’m almost finished with my newest model, Captain Fist-Bump. It was a pain to get the pose right while building him but I think it was worth it. Don’t leave him hanging 🤜

I just woke up from a 12 hour sleep and some very odd dreams. The most odd was probably that I was on a podcast with Matthew Rhys. While making us laugh he suddenly said “Hey, remember the worm?” and started break dancing, but tragically he landed badly. His neck snapped and he died instantly.

I’ve been wanting to buy Mittens some new toys, as he seems to have gotten bored of his collection. My results have been a bit hit and miss so far though. Lend me a hand? What’s the best cat toy you’ve ever seen or bought?

I laugh every time I remember that my phone automatically splits photos of me into two different people. I could correct it and merge them into one “person” but it’s funnier this way. I always forget what I labelled the second album so that always gets an extra laugh out of me too.

Mittens, are you sure that’s a comfortable place and position to sleep in? You have a cushioned bed like 3 feet away from you. Why have you chosen to cuddle up against wood? Also, what’s going on with that leg braced against a metal pole? Mittens, I love you but I will never understand you.

I like the camaraderie that comes with going to the cinema to watch anime episodes. I made eye contact with a dude walking in and with one small nod we both silently communicated: “Hello fellow nerd, I see your partner didn’t want to come either? That’s okay. We are friends now.”

Well this is a new one even for me. It seems because I’m so used to bumming around my house in nothing but a baggy top, I’ve come out to the cinema without a bra. I noticed while walking down the busy highstreet and looking down to see I’m apparently smuggling a pair of arrowheads under my top 🙈

“Why did you stay up all night, Mia?” Well, I was falling asleep and then I just randomly remembered there was an alternate ending to Titanic. So of course I had to then get up and go watch that ending again. That led to watching a different video and then somehow 7 hours went by.

I’d be delighted to! 💖 My favourite part of the delivery was new PreCure fairy plushies! Including Mepple and Mipple who I’ve wanted plushies of for so many years and now I have them! Yay~! I also got Milk who is my favourite fairy ever, who I already had but I wanted a second one for cuddling ☺️
