I got really into @intothecast.bsky.social when I was working on my book, when I really needed something Not Music to listen to every day, and so imagine my delight listening this morning and hearing my name and the PE essay I wrote for @aftermath.site

27. Ridge Racer 2 (2006)
impeccable vibes (both style & music), beautiful psp graphics, the drifting in this game rocks it leans a little easy but it balances its difficulty very well to just be Fun
fantastic game, s/o to @intothecast.bsky.social for their relentless rr2 praise on their psp episode
