Tonight I will be trying my hand at making Skradinska Torta, the signature cake made in the Croatian town of Skradin near Krka national park.

Will my googled recipe be as good as the secret local recipe? Very likely no. But hopefully I make something reminiscent of that amazing town and it's people

The name Canari from Pokemon Legends ZA sounds like she could be some South African influencer.

Which is a shame because she's so fucking insufferable.

So Crème Brulèe by David Archuleta popped up on my YouTube playlist today.
I haven't heard any of his music since blasting Crush on repeat in 2008.

Naturally I had to Wikipedia him and, oh man, I hope he's proud of making it through all the struggles he's had to overcome.

As AI has rapidly saturated so many parts of our lives, I wonder how close we are to seeing a super-intelligence.

Something that can actually create rather than mimic.

I don't know how is feel about it if it did arrive. Terrified probably...

I just watched a video where the guy was saying that the third generation of Pokemon was great design paired with terrible stats and .. yeah .. that's the truth.

Looking at you Absol and Sableye😢

I'm in the 3rd wild area of Pokemon Legends ZA and I find myself asking...
WHERE ARE ALL THE DARK TYPES??😭

Gray Quickfall @writergray.bsky.social · 17d

Pokemon Legends ZA is the first game I've ever downloaded on its release date, and based on the reviews I've been reading, that may be the only good reason for downloading it.

Let's hope it's more enjoyable than the loudest voices are making it out to be

Let's go Totodile!

Woah has anyone else listened to the new album from Red Sebastian: "Turn on the Lights"?

It's equal parts fun and chaotic with some slow songs between that showcase his vocal prowess and humanity.

Really fantastic, repeat-worthy listening

I've started playing Pokemon Shield again. Although this time I'm doing the main story playthrough with only dark type pokemon.

My starter is technically Nickit as that's the first one I was able to catch.

Wish me luck I guess😅

So according to the director-general of the Department of Health, close to 1000 children have died from starvation in South Africa in the last 18 months.

Folks there's a lot of suffering in this world, but we shouldn't forget we've got innocent people starving in our home country as well 😢
