Picked up Red Dead on the Switch, and now wondering why I didn't finish Red Dead 2 on the PlayStation. Might need to revisit that!

If anyone wants to get stuck into a sci-fi indie title, The Signal from Tolva is well worth your time.
I played it at EGX way back when, and probably should boot it up again!

Being colourblind, I'm glad my clothes pegs are nice and distinct colours, so I don't have to worry about use mismatching pegs
We have a mish-mash of clothes pegs, but everyone knows washing is happiest if it's pegged on the line using matching pegs for each item. Except my family, apparently, who heedlessly take a more haphazard approach. So I've binned all the old pegs and bought 200 identical new ones

i think george lucas might have been reading lord of the rings when he made the first star wars films. because obviously “frodo” rhymes with “yodo.” and like frodo, yodo was a short little hero who carried a mystical glowing sword. kind of a cool tip of the cap from lucas there

Finished reading the Metro books last night. Really enjoyed the creepy/horror elements of the first two, but didn't understand why the last one took such a turn away from all of that. Glad I read them all, just perplexed by the thematic changes.
