I really need to get an acrylic display case for my Masterpiece Sideswipe and Tigertrack…

Maybe I had that dream about Japan and my family over there because there was a M5.8 Earthquake in my Mom's hometown of Kumamoto yesterday while I was sleeping last night...

Dreamed I was back in Japan with my Mom, Uncle, and one of my Aunts. We were in an izakaya eating yakitori, and for the life of me, I couldn't remember how to say the word tsukune to the server. Weird.

Relaxing with some FFXIV (Moogle Tomes) and sipping coffee out of the head of Char’s Zaku-II MS-06S.

Now the Labyrinth of the Ancients music in the Molten Cave! Or rather… the Molten Cave music was used in Labyrinth of the Ancients!

I'm really fed up with everything right now. I often sit and take it and move one, but I'm at my limit. I think it's time to really make steps toward change.

I have two Final Fantasy OCD musts. All characters to level 99, if it had jobs, all jobs to level 99…

Although my AOL friend group back in the 90’s was like a Genshiken in a way.

I wish I had a Genshiken (げんしけん) group when I was in high school.

Why Karous and not Karasu? I don’t get it…

Yesterday my partner and I counted all the ads along Chicago's Brown Line for "Friend," a company selling an AI chatbot pendant, and tallied how many of those ads were defaced. Still working on a longer piece on this, but here's the quick and dirty: we counted 104 "Friend" ads total, 42 defaced.

I've been in the mood for ramen all week. Might have to go next weekend... youtu.be/Sd_yTwanavo?...

Funny-when you play old Final Fantasy games, and you catch where a lot of the music within XIV originated from. For instance, in the ending of Shadowbringers, you can hear the World Map music from Final Fantasy III.

And as previously stated, on to Final Fantasy III!

Platinum-ed what is considered the “worst Final Fantasy” game. Wasn’t a fan of the weird WEIRD mechanics/leveling system. Story was (as expected for 1988) pretty basic. Also wasn’t a fan of the rotating 4th character slot.

Iron Giant finally popped!!! FFII is in the bag! On to FFIII! (Only missing two trophies…)

Trying to get the Iron Giant to pop in Final Fantasy II is the worst…

Going through an old box and found some classics (for consoles I don’t even own anymore). I remember buying both used many moons ago, and being bummed out at how scratched up EX2 Plus was…

What do you find the most of in Final Fantasy II? Empty rooms. I’ve never seen so many god damn empty rooms in a JRPG in my life…

Aim for the eye!!!

Bought this set when it dropped. If you're a big fan like me, it's pretty amazing. (Also pick up Crystal Lake Memories.)

Chugging along in FFII. Hopefully be done by Friday (sooner if I ditch the 100% Bestiary). Then on to FFIII.

What perfect album came out the year you turned 16? (Europe Release Year)

I think it’s kinda weird that the cash shop for FFXIV doesn’t have every single character from every Final Fantasy game’s outfit for sale, minus the ones that are already in game that is. Also the fact that there isn’t a Buster Sword for purchase boggles the mind.

I just want the goddamn Tactics Poster...

Tempted to try WoW again after 13 years off...

Once you get old and get over how "punk" you're supposed to be in the Punk scheme of things... "The Black Parade" is a really good record. A little overproduced, but still pretty darn good overall.

The song that ends Advent Children Complete in Japan is a banger, and it’s a bummer we never got it here in the US. (Both “Calling” - the original closer - and “Safe and Sound” are by Kyosuke Himuro, the latter featuring Gerard Way of My Chemical Romance) youtu.be/gCi_Ko_1FjA?...

If you see this, QTP with the last 4 games you played! #gaming #promosky #gamesky

Post your favorite Star Trek character. Wrong answers only.

Almost halfway through FFII (my side game since it’s not too deep). It’s not as bad as I was led to believe. It’s about what I expected from this era of JRPG. While not a big fan of its attribute leveling system, it’s not TOO terrible. I guess what was weird was…

Excellent.

Rise up!!!

Recovered my old FFXI account from a million years ago. All of my gear and gil are gone… don’t remember if I let one of my friends loot my character before I quit or not, but I probably did.

My mantra.

I've just had a stressful situation come and go, so that means I need to reward myself with In N Out.

Kinda weird that "Ax Battler" of Golden Axe used a sword...

Drop something ELECTRIFYING

I’ll partake. The action in this game isn’t the kind I’m used to. Feels really “Souls-like” and I suck at those.

Still my favorite Jedi. (Loved the yellow saber from the "Jedi Power Battles" days too.)

What movie villain is a horrible person, but an absolute joy to watch on screen?

Share something that reminds you of your childhood...❤️💙🖤

I've used this same Japanese dictionary app on my phone for over 12 years. Why? As soon as I saw this, I knew I made the right choice.

I wish there was an isolation facility that I could check into for a week. I bring a week's worth of food & drink and books. No phones and soundproofed so I don't have to hear people outside of my chamber. I just need a TV supplied, I can bring the console and games. I just want a week of cut-off.

Catching up on the MCU after being reinvigorated by The Fantastic Four: First Steps and Thunderbolts (still on the fence about whether or not to watch Secret Invasion), moving on to Echo today, and then starting Daredevil: Born Again after that.

Breakfast time. Working from home is nice. My own food, and still in my PJs.

I am admitting defeat. I literally can't play FFXI. 20 years ago I thought it was cutting edge. Now? I can't believe they didn't change a great deal of archaic bullshit in this game. It's almost like they kept things like this out of spite. I really want to play it for the story, but holy shit.

Cid is going to eat my brains…

My boss’s boss walks by my cubicle 900 times a day, never says hello…
