"Cool" I guess GCP support cases go through Gemini first before allowing you to speak to a support rep. Fucking gross.

Well I guess I spend my mornings watching scenic landscape videos from the pov of a train? At least this is relaxing enough. Might just take an early nap after I get some work done.

"What most clearly sets it apart from other genres is that it’s so rooted in anger and sadness — or their common ancestors: terror, lack, isolation and despair. Metal, one fan told me, is 'a strange road to joy.'" This is so lovely, @btoastie.bsky.social:

Honked my way through Untitled Goose Game yesterday. 10/10 honks. It even got my very non-gamer partner interested for a bit heh.

and one day we will die and our old posts will fly in the protocol over blue skyyy

Black coat, white shoes, black hat, Cadillac yeah The pope’s a time bomb

Just for laughs...

Oh shit Rue Valley just dropped. Okay I need to go blow through another two games on my list so I hit 52 and then I can dive into that for like a month lol.

if you can’t see the aurora borealis tonight, here is a sewer tunnel which is a wonder in itself.

Enjoyable, dialogue was witty and references abound. And all the parrying was great! I love this age of parrying games.

Well they turned out... chewy? And kinda burnt? Was sticky as shit and hard to form. Better luck next time I guess. Least it was edible with some jam.

Baguette dough made, time for four crispy baguettes for breakfast. Nom.

Picked up En Garde, sounds like a whimsical swashbuckler. I could do with some whimsy. And hey for $5 ain't bad too.

I keep on thinking about how prescient Hitchhiker’s Guide was about AI. Every time I see anything about it my brain yells “listen up you stupid computer, it tastes filthy”

The nap was short but warm and glorious.

I turned sesame into a yan

I have cooked and eaten an entire loaf of bread. It was slightly undercooked in the center. I think I need a nap.

today, like every day, is a good day to remember everything Lake Superior has taken from us. the only language the Great Lakes understand is force. RIP to the Eddie Fitz

Beat the released episode of Fallen Aces. What a damn fine immersive sim, and yet another game that scratches that noir itch in my soul. Reminds me that I can't wait for Mouse P.I. For Hire to come out...

Huh, well take your good news where you can get it I guess.

Fuck it, man, join DSA. Eat these losers alive or die.

weathers changing. more time for gaming

WE FUCKING DID IT!!!!

if you are food insecure for both the humans and pets in your household there is a tool called Pet Help Finder that can help locate pet food banks nearby and other free or reduced price assistance and supplies for pets. no one, ABSOLUTELY NO ONE, should have to give up their pet bc of this.

There's a Baja Blast pie... I need it...

We're doing a live Pathfinder game for the next few weekends on the Cool Zone Book Club (published as weekend episodes of It Could Happen Here). The great Margaret Killjoy wrote some fiction setting up our characters:

while i have your attention

who decided they should be called rust evangelists and not the cargo cult

Do I feel like ass today? Sure. But I'm at 46 out of 52 games rolled credits on/beaten for the year. And that's pretty cool.

oh fuck yes i can finally post my fanart of @b0tster.yeag.gay 's little awesome freak weirdo

Vernor was a CS professor with about 30 years in the field when he wrote Deepness in the Sky. He *knew* what he was talking about with his software archaeologists!

Absolutely WILD that the development of sofrware proceeded with so little heed to record-keeping that 52 year old source code is a major archaeological trove that requires special tools to gain access to, like it's a treasure room in a sealed royal tomb from 3500 years ago.

i put balatro on my oscilloscope

The 30 Rock episode with “how do you do, fellow kids?” is closer to the release of Windows 98 than it is to today.

*sitting backwards in a folding chair* You know who else got uploaded into the cloud?

Got through a couple point'n click puzzle games. Darkside Detective was witty, with a nice amount of punny references. Scratched the detective genre itch I always have. Whereas Behind the Frame although short was sweet, made me want to go unpack my easel, brew up a jug of coffee, and start painting.

I currently have 36 Nebula-exclusive videos, and you currently have a weekend coming up, and Nebula just implemented free 3-day trials, so... go nuts? nebula.tv/jacob-geller
