it's not FOR us

edited comic panel. Batman is breaking a lump-with-handle cow tool over his knee and saying "this is the tool of the cow. we do not understand it. we will not use it."

it's sick when you're reminded you haven't listened to a band in a while and something prompts you to. shoutout to my coworker wearing a Violent Femmes shirt yesterday.

Oh, I get it. It's called Castlevania because it's a metroidvania set in a castle!

glad to have spent a good chunk of my before work time this morning to make a joke that's almost certainly been done

Wow. Nintendo's REALLY pulling a Star Wars Special Edition on us Animated Baby and Content fans. I can't believe what I'm seeing here! What's going on?!

Why do I still buy games and consoles and toys from them? ...You know what..? This is what I think of you, Nintendo!!!

They should introduce a mildly controversial Pikmin who says things that make you unsure how to feel

Stealth40k @stealth40k.bsky.social · 2d

Pikmin 4 makes so much sense for a Switch 2 Edition.

More single player and multiplayer content would be awesome.

there is absolutely a market for "idle game where you have to pay attention", but people who aren't in the idling trenches tend to assume the worst of the genre (which is pretty fair tbh lol)

vampire survivors - and now megabonk - broke into the mainstream by not advertising themselves as such

mindless web surfing in general is a bad habit of mine. a literal default activity if I want to turn my brain off. it's why bluesky kinda rules. my timeline is only so scrollable until I've reached where I left off last time.

but still not a great habit....

Aidan @girambquamb.com · 3d

I've defended plenty of reddit's nicer aspects - small communities for niche hobbies aren't without headache, but they can be nice.

but man browsing /r/all is nothing but psychic damage. horrible habit that I'm gonna take the effort to curb.

wordle was sorta a meme game that just padded the whole thing out. I like the implementation but next time I'm devoting too many hours to this sorta thing I'm just gonna do 2 games...

timer was paused for bathroom/food breaks...

fun to do this when I've got multiple hours to kill, but man I'm tired.

always forget how long ladx can be. finish order was wordle -> pokemon -> ladx. wasn't gonna use hints, but I did hint the very last item I needed to finish the whole thing lol
