Getting my partner a rice cooker for Xmas. We debated importing one from Japan, until the shipping cost made it more expensive than just buying one here. Boo.

You know you're old when appliances for Xmas seems exciting, lol.

We basically had it in Canada during COVID, and the answer was "keep up with the cost of living AND still be able to save money for a house/emergencies/whatever".

I still find it depressing that what the government considered a "basic income" was way more than my minimum wage self actually earns.
Honest question: If everyone got Universal Basic Income, no strings attached, what would YOU do with it?

Finished my model kit! It's a Chaos & Pretty wolf mode "Grandma", a companion model to the Red Riding Hood model I did a few years ago.

Lily is helping me with my model kit, lol.

I don't build many model kits, but I've had this one kicking around for a while. I've already cut my finger with a knife and had to stop cats from eating pieces, so it's going great.

So, so many. The art is one of the big appeals of the game for me. Here's some of my favourites overall.

New Japan exclusive MTG Final Fantasy product: mini "basic booster" packs with 7 cards and exclusive tokens. mtg-jp.com/reading/koch...

I have zero interest in a booster pack with even FEWER cards, but the tokens are cute. Might have to get/proxy the moogle and chocobo ones.

Apparently Bluesky thinks I want to see political cartoons, weird vore fetish art, and gross guys taking topless selfies.

The perils of the Discover tab, I guess. My mute and block buttons are getting a major workout.

Hardly ever use Twitter any more, but I checked it last night and saw that my entire feed is now Japanese fanart and posts about Konatsu Kato (Hinako's voice actress) playing Silent Hill f. AS IT SHOULD BE.

Molly's urinalysis showed that her UTI is cleared up. Yay! She's still on some of the urinary SO food, but hopefully we can ween her off it over time and get her back to a normal diet.

She'd also appreciate it if she could go outside and murder mice again, lol.

Until recently, Neil Gaiman's books would have been top of the list. Ugh. 😣

Instead, I'll say China Mieville's "Perdido Street Station" and "Un Lun Dun". The type of books I didn't know I wanted until I read them, and the antithesis of all the things that bother me about "traditional" fantasy.
performative reading, lack of reading skills, nobody's reading anymore -- NO!

tell me about a book that changed you

for me? the *extremely* ahistorical novel, THE AGONY AND THE ECSTASY which I read at 13 and was like, "Oh, art can be *everything* to a maker, for good and bad"

The really annoying thing about Square Enix is that the creatives have produced some of most brilliant pieces of work in my lifetime and I love them dearly, but the corporates have produced some of the most detestable business decisions I can think of for a gaming company and I despise them deeply

10 games to get to know me. (Don't mind that the photo's from 12 years ago, lol.)

Honourable mention to Secret of Mana, Fatal Frame 2: Crimson Butterfly, Silent Hill 2, Phoenix Wright: Ace Attorney, King's Quest 4: The Perils of Rosella, Slay the Princess, Silent Hill f, and Chrono Trigger.

Welp, reports from the beta seem to say that Dissidia Duellum is PvP moba trash with obnoxious gatcha mechanics. So I guess I won't need to bother playing it when it seems destined to be a garbage fire that Square Enix will cancel after a year.

Still love Terra's cute moogle cardigan though.

Molly had a follow up vet appointment today. She was cranky for the urinalysis, but not too bad. We should have the results some time next week so we know if her infection is finally gone. Fingers crossed!

Growing up, were there any moments in movies that traumatized you? 😈

The bed scene in Ernest Scared Stupid. You know the one.

I watched the movie at someone's birthday party. That night, I was so scared I made my mom sleep in my room with me.
Growing up, were there any moments in movies that traumatized you? 😈

At 6, I got up to the living room to tell mom I was thirsty. I walked in exactly at the moment of the Psycho shower scene.

At 9, I walked in on the last scene in Halloween ‘78 where Michael Myers “dies” and disappears.

Do I want to get Pokemon Legends Z-A? Or is it as dull as Pokemon Legends Arceus was, just set in a city this time?

I feel like I'm on an futile quest for a Pokemon game that makes me feel how most Pokemon games make OTHER people feel, and that game just doesn't exist.
