Borderlands 4, otherwise known as 'Compiling Shaders Simulator'

I really *want* to like this game, but holy crap man, the way it runs has really tested my patience. I have a decently powerful PC too so I know it's not my rig

I will officially be returning to school next week, completely tuition free thanks to a workforce scholarship program in our state

Wish me luck. I'm older and wiser now but I really need to pass these darn intro courses to get to the good stuff

Avatar Fire and Ash was really good. The visuals in these movies are trippy, especially in 3D, it all looks so immersive that it's almost like you can reach out and touch the characters.

Very curious as to where the story is going after this one though #filmsky #Avatar

Finished a playthrough of Black Mesa, the fan-made Half-Life remake

Thoroughly enjoyed this one, it's good! I remember first playing it years ago, when it was unfinished and a free download. The finished game is amazing, only complaint is their expanded Xen is WAY too long

Went to see Wicked For Good last night

Frankly, it was boring, I literally almost fell asleep. Ariana and Cynthia are both wonderful but the pacing of the movie is just glacial. Feels like they blew their load with the first Wicked, this one just lacked in execution so badly.

We had a company lunch at Kickin' Chicken today to usher in the holidays, but I'm new and I barely know anyone, so I just sat quietly and enjoyed my Coke Zero #awkward #Christmas #newjob

Watched The Muppets Christmas Carol last night because neither me or my SO had seen it in forever

Ridiculously good movie, absolute classic. Feels like the kind of thing we rarely get anymore

Guy at work meant to say, "I'm just messing with you", but instead he combined it with, "I'm pulling your leg" and accidentally said, "I'm just messing with your leg"

My reaction to #WelcomeToDerry after that last episode is somewhere between stupefaction and wanting to know what the hell they were thinking

Finally finished Final Fantasy 7 Rebirth today

And what a fantastic journey it was! A long one, but a good one. Worth it to spend so much time with these characters, and one of the best action RPG systems in recent memory

The last boss took me five tries, a solid challenge

I'm blown away that we're basically getting KOTOR 3, and Casey Hudson is on the project. I also really hope it comes out in the near-ish future and not a decade from now. My enthusiasm for Star Wars is little to none these days but I'm 100% in for a game like this

Discovered this morning that I'm able to fit into my old size 30 waist blue jeans again.

The waist is stretchy, but that's beside the point #weightloss

Subscribed to Netflix again for Stranger Things

Tell me, why does Netflix insist on including a kid's account when you sign up? Pretty sure I told it "no" and yet they did it anyway

One big downside of #WelcometoDerry bringing Stephen King and 'It' back into mainstream once again: we have people debating about little details that King fans settled on decades ago. Because there's literally a 1000+ page written about it and then some

Finally got a chance to watch the remake of Road House, after having put it off for so long.

I really enjoyed this movie, why did it get slammed so hard in the reviews? Jump scare by a very naked Conor McGregor notwithstanding, I thought it was a fun watch. Jake Gyllenhaal nailed it #Filmsky

Listen, I am a huge fan of the Rush Hour movies

Rush Hour was one of the first DVDs I ever owned, I watched it on my PS2 that Christmas morning. I own the trilogy box set on Blu-ray now

But if Rush Hour 4 happens because of Trump, I genuinely wouldn't know how to reconcile with it lol #Filmsky
Donald Trump is reportedly pushing Paramount to make ‘Rush Hour 4’

Pennywise kryptonite is a dumb idea and antithetical to everything I love about the original IT novel, but at least the execution of this show is very entertaining. Can't fault it for that #WelcomeToDerry

Reached Chapter 11 of my playthrough of Final Fantasy VII Rebirth.

This game had way more content than I expected, I'm over 70hrs at this point. It's been such a fun game that it's flown by really quickly. Some of the mini-games are a little groan-inducing, but it's hardly a problem. #gaming

I love the Goo Goo Dolls, both Johnny and Robby are super talented. Seen them in concert on three different occasions and they were great every time. Glad people still resonate with hits like Iris

Don't much care for their newer music though, it's too modern pop for me. Not what I want from them
NPR just posted the Goo Goo Dolls Tiny Desk concert that you didn't know you needed in 2025 www.youtube.com/watch?v=X0X1...

Finally watched 'Good Boy' now that it's on Shudder

Really good movie, super creepy and well-made. Makes me wish we had more movies like this, either from a dog's POV or other animals

My cat was locked in while I watched it too, the dog on screen really had his attention 😂 #horror #Filmsky

Trying to do a little of the good old marketing on LinkedIn. Is it just me or does literally everything on that site smack of AI?

Utilizing some tips my girlfriend gave me to get me started, stuff she learned from her own work, but it all feels so inauthentic to me lol

Trying to find a new job for the first time in over a decade, and for some reason half the jobs in my area require a government clearance of some kind. Secret clearance, public trust, etc.

For Pete's sake, man, I make technical drawings, I'm not Jack Ryan 😭

So half the internet is just down, huh?

I'm sure that's no reason for concern lol

Seeing a resurgence of Zelda discourse the last few days, specifically for BOTW/TOTK

My only thought on that, is I think we have a bad habit of assuming everyone thinks the same way or we all approach puzzles with the same mindset. Some of y'all might be too smart for your own good honestly lol
