Tomorrow, October the 10th, is Mental Health Awareness Day. I've come to feel very strongly about this topic over the last year.

Remember in these CRAZY times that it's OK to not be OK.

Swallow your pride or sit on your fears for at least 24 hours and talk to somebody you trust.

You got this. <3

De-coned. Unbroken. Free.

Fuuka has her recovery cone off finally through a combination of healing and me trimming and rounding her giant back claws down. Still under observation, but look at this face...

And to go from that beautiful and intense finale and then take us back to where we began in the game with this song was so good. Honestly, for all the games flaws that segment elevated it back up and will stick with me for a long while 👍

Well gah damn I played through the space station elevator segment in Steller Blade and that was some impressive environmental art, music and just general pacing. Been a while since a game had me so engrossed I lost track of the time 😅

Been a long while since I watched Ergo Proxy, another personal fav anime of mine. The world setting was very intriguing on the 1st watch and on multiple viewings I liked it even more. #AnimeOST
