perhaps we should not have allowed these Silicon Valley men to turn into god-kings simply because they invented a 10% more efficient way to delivery a burrito to your house, oh my god, it turns out the problem is capitalism once again

I have updated my Metroidvania/search-action recommendation and ranking list with Axiom Verge, Portrait of Ruin, Dandara, and Primal Planet! medium.com/@RowanKaiser...

I really enjoyed the start of this game, as a Metroidvania set in a huge dinosaur world. But as you get further into it, the huge world (and mildly annoying map) become more of a problem, while the game also offloads a lot of the exploration difficulty onto a crafting system instead of a movement upgrade system, which removes a lot of the joy of the genre. (8/26)

haha right? it's so cool and also leads to the aesthetic pairing here being "body horror". Which Morrison is in the top tier of, perhaps matched only by Gillen:

rowan kaiser @rowan.monster · 14/08/2026
but with that said, you sure the destruction of Genosha doesn't involve corruption and (lack of) bodily autonomy? because this argument from Frank Quitely is quite compelling

"But Rowan, what about the X-Men's human opponents?" This question complicates matters but doesn't change them -- the human opponents tend to corrupt THEMSELVES in order to fight the X-Men. You want body horror, check out Cameron Hodge, who trades his humanity for the chance to destroy mutants

i went to a park with a friend and there were 6 pillars with 6 numbers set on them in roman numerals and a stone  path between them with a different, but overlapping set of roman numerals and a sun symbol
i felt like we walked into a adventure game puzzle
rowan — 9:34 PM
nolan north voice I need to activate the pillars in the right order 
shea — 9:34 PM

shea — 9:35 PM

i am typing or copying and pasting these things in and getting nothing from the terminal

I ran dmesg which is what the google search told me and there's a lot of PCI error messages

rowan kaiser @rowan.monster · 12/07/2026
googling this error brings me to this page, which allows me to see and then get rid of the error with this section: www.reddit.com/r/linuxmint/... However getting rid of the error doesn't make bluetooth actually turn on, I cannot actually search for new devices

rowan kaiser @rowan.monster · 12/07/2026
Didn't work, we carry on. That's annoying, but the Bluetooth issue is debilitating, as that's how I get sound on my computer. When I try to open the bluetooth app I get this error.

Two bad things happened. First, after rebooting Linux seems to hang on a blank screen for a few minutes. I can type in it but it's not like a terminal, it's just characters
