Not necessarily in that order.

I love RizGod but I can’t see him winning #Survivor49 based on the jury’s continued eyeroll reactions to his Idol antics.

So, why didn’t Blue Sophie use her KOP to swipe that- knowing it’s guaranteed- vs going after Steven? She’d get final tribal votes on stopping that train alone.

Me trying to sort out what Tribal is going to be tonight knowing there’s a Block a Vote, Knowledge is Power, and Rizgod’s Idols that ALL have to be burned in the next two episodes… without even factoring in the next Immunity Challenge winner.

There’s an abandoned #Wendys complete with unreno’d sunroom by where my office is. Every single day I drive past, all I can think about is someone going the 90s route with it ala #PizzaHut throwback restaurants.

Yellow cups. Super Bar. The chicken cordon bleu sandwich. Mexican baked potatoes.

Questionable scoring in the mix, though…

More from Game Players… Classic #Sega CD marketing. CLEARLY the world wasn’t ready for all that InstaSwitch and DigiChrome technology.

I mean- technically- we did get Knuckles Chaotix and Sonics Jam and R?

What could have been with X-Treme…

I kid you not when I tell you this may be the greatest single issue of any video game magazine of all time…

The games covered, the pure 90s ads, the letters.

And- somehow- Final Fantasy 6 is buried. 😳😳

I’m back up north this week staying with my partner’s family and working remotely until she comes up later this week.

I did a cycle of some of my old #RetroGaming haunts over the weekend and found some decent goodies- including magazines!

Hi I wrote about the Sega Master System and how it’s been criminally overlooked because everyone goes on about the NES like it was the only 8bit console in the world look don’t get me started

Master System at 40: the truth about Sega’s most underrated console
Forty years ago, the Nintendo Entertainment System dominated the markets in Japan and the US. But in Europe, a technologically superior rival was making it look like an ancient relic

A dose of Artie for our collective timelines.

Because sometimes we all need a boost from The Strongest Man in the World.

My favorite thing about Savannah is that she is playing a very respectable old school game in the New Era- and it is a BIG breath of fresh air.

The “Uncle Jeff” phenomenon. It’s run its course… It’s officially hitting cringe territory.
