sure but its got nothing on the Ao3 gay love re-writes. Ishmael and Queequeg are made for each other.

It's also a really good time keep hold of basically all your consumer electronics and see if any of your already owned games have something cool done for them.

2026 for me might just be the year of TIE Fighter Total Conversion and custom Age of Empires campaigns

frankly ive been living in that world since i discovered most of the triple A industry was run by sex pests and fascists.

at least indy dev sex pests get consequences, and the modding scene has some cool people in it.

Dumb but genuine question: When I was a kid I LOVED to read, you couldn't keep a novel out of my hands. But ever since college, I've found it difficult to read books because my mind wanders too much, is there anything I can do to like, fix that?

put your phone in another room and make space to read. this will be really annoying at first and you will want to just get up but eventually you'll re-adjust and be back at it again like the old days

Also, start with shorter and easier reads. Reading is like exercise and as you grow stronger/gain more endurance, you can more easily approach longer, more challenging works, IMO

For anyone reading this, Umineko When They Cry is a great starter into the visual novel genre. Very light hearted and approachable ❤️

Nintendo: Switch 2 not looking so expensive now, eh?
Me: well yes $900 is more than $500 but $500 is still a fair bit.
