I’m freeing us all from this curse, but I’m still gonna post a random picture. 🖼️ Let’s all have a wonderful August.

I feel like this one here is a candidate. When I think of Superman, I think of a character who believes in the innate potential of all human beings to do good things, sometimes to a fault. In spite of being an alien with godlike powers, he is perhaps humanity’s most enthusiastic cheerleader.

Alright, let’s do this. For the sake of variety, these won’t necessarily be my all time favorite tracks, but they will be interesting ones I want to highlight. I’m playing on Hard Mode (no repeat games)!

I often think about how common it used to be for there to be a ton of promotional art for games that wasn't in the game, couldn't have been been rendered on the hardware at the time, and wasn't on the game's cover. It just existed in magazine articles, players guides, and instruction manuals.

Today marks the 30th anniversary of the release of #EarthBound in North America. My favorite video game of all time since childhood, to say that it has “shaped me” does not even begin to describe the impact that EarthBound has had on me.

Haha, I can’t remember if it was here or back when I was on the dead bird app, but I remember seeing a post quite a while ago about that exact Shatner written comic issue, which I also had.

A good window into my podcast intake is the fact that I just listened to two unrelated episodes from different shows that both cracked a joke about the cover of Tommy Lasorda Baseball on the Sega Genesis. Thanks @vgapocalypse.bsky.social & @polykillpodcast.bsky.social for keeping me company at work!
