Yeah, it snowed here this morning. About two inches, looks like. Fortunately I had some foresight and did my weekly grocery shopping YESTERDAY instead of today. I don't drive in snow if I can help it. I know I'm garbage at it!

I agree, and to contribute something positive, I recommend the Scholomance series by Niomi Novik if you want a "wizard academy" story fix. For games, I have my eye on Witchbrook, but I'd be open to more suggestions!

Nice. Living the dream! A couple folks who have read my book said they could picture it as a movie or TV show. I'll keep working at it. Got more to write!

Preach. For my job I nitpick the grammar of STEM-lords. I enforce the Oxford comma with an iron fist!

Oh wow. Yeah I'm not there yet. Just have the one book. Working on a second, and I have a short story collection that I provide for free if you subscribe to my newsletter.

Space Opera. Specifically I call it space fantasy: talking animals, dragons, and magic, but in space.

That sounds like a really fun job. I hope she also goes ham on guitar solos.

Words to live by!

Worst, says you, actually achievable for anyone with anything else going on IRL, says I. I'll take "shiny hunt while I work," over at least half of the shiny hunting methods in other games, thanks.

Oh hi, a fellow Metroid Prime 2 and Fusion liker! (I've barely scratched Prime 4 so I can't rank it yet.)

6) Xenoblade Chronicles X: DE
7) Monster Hunter Wilds
8) Final Fantasy Tactics: Ivalice Chronicles
9) Whisker Squadron Survivor
10) Civilization 7

FFT is only so low because I've played it to death before. Whisker Squadron I also played to death in early access!

Nice. I recommend curry as well! Curry is perfect when it's cold out. And when it's hot out. And when it's comfortable, and when it's-

I'm going to be too busy playing Metroid Prime 4 to check it out right away. Hope y'all have fun!

I haven't watched the show, but the books are a fun time. It was fun for awhile when I'd get to threaten to spoil the next plot point when people who followed the show annoyed me. 🤣 Enjoy!

Definitely a trope. I know there are loads of examples but for some reason by brain is having trouble coming up with anything specific. One that comes to mind: Warhammer 40k: Rites of War. You start as Eldar vs. Space Marines, but later you join forces with the Space Marines against the Tyranids.

I usually make curry in big batches. Leftovers for days!

I get "riced cauliflower" instead of rice. You can get it in frozen baggies and steam them right in your microwave. Also you can substitute cauliflower florets for potatoes. I also get Brussels sprouts, cut them in half, and air fry them as a substitute for French fries, loaded up with Cajun spice.
