Tom Londe @tomlonde.bsky.social · 25/09/2026At Way Too Late O'clock, I just finished Wolverine. I enjoyed it quite a bit. The cast was all great and I thought the story was pretty interesting. Think everybody whinging about it being a shorter linear game needs to sit down. Not everything needs to be 100hrs & Wolverine's length works well. 010
Tom Londe @tomlonde.bsky.social · 25/09/2026Squats are the one exercise these days where I'm not hitting max and can do my full sets. Squats also seem to be the one exercise that's utterly fucking me up week in and week out. Walking funny Wednesday to Sunday is getting real old. 010

Tom Londe @tomlonde.bsky.social · 20/09/2026I haven't been keeping up... is it controversial to say that I've been enjoying Wolverine? Took me a minute to get my hands around the combat, but once I found the flow state for that, it's been a lot of fun. All the characters are well acted & I'm invested in the story so far. 031
Tom Londe @tomlonde.bsky.social · 14/09/2026This is actively turning me off of using large chunks of the internet that I hands or use to frequent often.... having to question EVERYTHING is just exhausting to the point of not wanting to participate at all if I don't have to. 010
Tom Londe @tomlonde.bsky.social · 14/09/2026Finished Star Wars: Zero Company tonight and enjoyed it a lot. If you like turn-based tactical strategy games, there's a lot to love there. If you're on the fence about the genre, it's a great place to start. Has some good tactical play while being FAR more forgiving than most games in the genre. 110
Tom Londe @tomlonde.bsky.social · 10/09/2026Criminally underrated game that deserved way more love when it released. 010
Tom Londe @tomlonde.bsky.social · 04/09/2026I'm trying to decide if it says something about me that I've never selected "Always" when prompted to pick an app to open or run something. 010
Tom Londe @tomlonde.bsky.social · 01/09/2026Nothing triggers the dopamine quite like a successful overwatch ambush in a turn-based strategy game. Oh, you want to drop reinforcements right on top of me? Well I have a full squad with lots of action points and nothing better to do than put their silly little cones of death over your drop zone 010

Tom Londe @tomlonde.bsky.social · 21/08/2026I need to find myself a good "shut down my brain and just chill and play" game. My preferred games tend to be either very narrative-heavy or very strategy-heavy... neither of which really jives with days like today where I just need to shut down for a bit. 100
Tom Londe @tomlonde.bsky.social · 20/08/2026I'm quickly learning to just never tell the doctors about anything that isn't REALLY bothering me that bad.

Tom Londe @tomlonde.bsky.social · 06/08/2026Well that's a bummer... Strange New Worlds has been one of my favorite Trek shows, but this season just ain't doing it for me so far. It's hit once out of three episodes so far for me (technically 1.5 out of 3... I was into "The Griffin Incident" until I wasn't). 010
Tom Londe @tomlonde.bsky.social · 06/08/2026Something I was thinking about today. We always talk about how AI writing texts, emails, books, etc is going to start making everything sound samey, but I think it's already happening with innocuous tools like just grammar assistance. 100

Even if that comes to pass, we all damn all know that society will not get restructured to accommodate the fact that all the jobs are gone.

Tom Londe @tomlonde.bsky.social · 29/07/2026100%.

Tom Londe @tomlonde.bsky.social · 22/07/2026I have to confess... I'm trying to play an old game that is widely considered one of the GOATs.... and I'm struggling. There's definitely stuff I like, but it's a tough game to play for the first time in 2026. I've already given it 10hrs and I'm debating how much more I owe it or how far the end is 010
Tom Londe @tomlonde.bsky.social · 21/07/2026This leaks into society in general, but it's especially prevalent on the internet... there is no room for forgiveness, no room for you to improve or get better or change your mind.
