The ability of other people to get me into their hobbies and fandoms is matched only by their ability to swear off said hobbies and fandoms once I get invested.
I miss having someone to watch movies with.

A lot of us can remember the year 2000, so it's kind of crazy to think that we've already gone through a quarter of a whole century

Me, making plans: Everything looks great, this will surely succeed!

Me, when it's time to execute the plan: This is going to fail for sure.

The older I get, the more I come to think that "gaming nostalgia" -- i.e., that feeling you loved about playing a certain game long ago that you just can't find now -- is less about the game itself and more about who and where you were at that time. That's the part you can't get back, not the game.

Terrifying headline if you don’t realize they are sports teams.

Read through the Larian/genAI dust-up, and while it's not as bad as it could be, I can't believe the Very Smart People who run game companies haven't yet figured out that admitting to the use of AI, in any form, will cost you sales and goodwill. Is that worth the "savings" from using the tech?

"I have a very particular set of skills ... I will find you and I will kill you" sounds like something a virus would say #LiamNeeson

SWTOR 15 years ago: "The biggest MMO ever, has millions and millions of players, going to kill WoW!"

SWTOR today: "Cult classic MMO."

I have a feeling this is going to be a good December. It's already looking up!

Me in July: It's too damn hot, if I eat out, I'm going inside where there's air conditioning.

Me in November: I sure wish I could eat outside on a patio or something.

Last Friday Leena, my cat, unfortunately passed away due to heart failure. It was very sudden as she was cuddling with me and seeming fine in the morning.
I'm not doing well, and I admittedly keep looking over to her squishmallow thinking she'll be there.. I miss her..

Used my cross-stitch skills to sew on a shirt button that was hanging on for dear life

Today is the day to repost this meme about International Men's Day, one of the most unironically wholesome memes that has ever been made.

Shoutout to all my fellow champs, chiefs, and kings. ✊

Had an hourlong interview today (for pleasure, not for work) and it tuckered me out so much, I needed a two-hour nap.

Made a garlicky dish last night but also cut open my finger and it bled quite a bit, so I can't tell if Dracula would be repulsed or attracted.

Really regretting that I didn't tour the White House during my DC trip two years ago before 1/3 of it was destroyed. This was as close as I got.
