Digimon Story: Time Stranger brought me back to what made me fall in love with the franchise in the first place and every game like it. I was truly on an adventure with my digital friends in the digital world.

Going to record this week since I don't sound as bad and I have a day off. It'll be easier on the brain. Too much chaos in the library system the past few weeks. None of the libraries got lit on fire though so, small victories! (Yes this actually happened to a branch I worked at)

Demon Tides is very nearly at that Overwhelmingly Positive mark on Steam... but it should honestly have passed it weeks ago. A VERY open-world collectathon platformer with very technical movement. Kinda Bowsers Fury meets Wind Waker. You start with a full moveset, then unlock customization for it.

Ominous bird valentines.

I'm a librarian, would anyone be interested in my current reads or would want recommendations? The floor is open.

They could never make me hate you

This is also why art is important. I learned about the Troubles because of the Cranberries song Zombie. I was only six or seven at the time, but it was such a powerful and terrifying song and music video that I asked my family what it was about. They told me as best they could.

NO NO NO YOU DON’T GUYS LET ME PLEASE SPREAD THE GOSPEL OF FREE TAX USA federal is free, state is $16, handles even my chaotic freelancer taxes just fine, same step-by-step “designed for normies” kind of interface as TurboTax but NOT EVIL tell everyone you know www.freetaxusa.com

Optimistically, going to get two videos out this month, realistically, maybe two, possibly just one. Even as stubborn as I am, coughing all this out with the massive amount of scar tissue I have in my chest isn't pleasant. I'm excited though I have multiple finished scripts that I can record!

A reminder to get this if you've never played the game and have an Xbox.

Absolute Wonder Woman Volume 1 almost made me cry because I was shot back to when I was 6, reading my first Wonder Woman comic on the floor of a comic book store on "Superman Day" in Metropolis, Illinois. It's been so long since I've been excited about Wonder Woman Comics. It feels nice.

This is delightful which of course it is because it’s Tim Curry dammit but it contains two earth shattering revelations for the Curryverse and they are 1) he was considered for Ian Malcolm in Jurassic Park 2) he read the screenplay for Silence of the Lambs and wanted to be cast as Hannibal Lector

The only reason we didn't have a starter is @waddlesmcgee.bsky.social loves Treeko and I love Mudkip. So our compromise was no traditional starter. This is a 10/10 romhack would recommend. No you don't have to use Retro Achievements like we did but still. Pokemon Emerald Seaglass is great!

And that's another Pokemon ROM Hack 𝐦𝐚𝐬𝐭𝐞𝐫𝐞𝐝. All 430 acquired, all gym leaders beaten on Hard Mode with Level Cap active and level restraints. All in all, REALLY neat de-make/revision of Pokemon Emerald. AND, and, @redangelx3.bsky.social and I got to have another fun Pokemon romp together.

worst person you know: well i don’t actually give anything a 10/10, because nothing is perfect. i give things 9.5s max. and also my personal favorite media is an average medicore 7/10, but it’s my favorite for having soul. i’d much rather a soulful 7/10 in comparison to a soulless 10/10

It's my 8 year Transplantversery! 8 years ago today, I had a Bone Marrow Transplant that saved my life and I'm still kicking! Glad to still be here! Stay strong!

So the AI was wrong *and* racist. Hurray! Let's force it into everything!

Florida is too far south to be north and yet too filled with the the north to be fully south. We are an absolute amalgam of people and ideologies which is why it's chaotic as hell down here. But we are DEEPLY gerrymandered.

Florida is a gerrymandered purple state. #Florida www.yahoo.com/news/article...

So I unsurprisingly got an upper respiratory infection. Not sure if it's anything more serious to one covid test and I'm going to take a second one tomorrow. It's the fever that's worrying me because of my 7 year old immune system. Should be fine but it sucks to be in bed.

A platformer I love that isn't Sonic or Mario

#ValentineDay is the celebration of love and as of today we do really need to stop and celebrate It's meaning, and it's various form it can take throughout your whole life, and the best to teachers are a clubhouse of Hamsters! #MarkusTavern #Blog #Review #Videogames #GBA #Nintendo #Hamtaro

This is going to be all over the place considering my gaming history. If anyone wants me to make a playlist afterwards I will.

This is currently my favorite manga that I'm reading. This is a great video summing it up. I recommend this highly.

. I wish I owned this game but I was only able to find it from my local Blockbuster at the time. I kept renting it over and over again until the Blockbuster closed. This is a great video essay about Pandora's Tower that I'd recommend if you were ever curious about it.

Nosferatu (2024). Would've been Poor Things but the layered philosophical implications in that softened my view of it considerably. Nosferatu (2024) gets no such allowance. It's a well made film. The actors are great. The writing made me angry.

I'm sure this won't have any terrible effects on the community at large. Not that I'd know anything about that, being a librarian since 2017.

Of all of my memories some of my fondest was when both my Abuela and my mom learned how to play 2 games I was passionate about. Paper Mario and Animal Crossing.

You know, I'm glad I played Chrono Cross first.

I'm older than you so I can confirm that they came with a little book that had the tutorial in it and you read it on the way home

I have decided that my Witch will be named Valentina and the Vampire will be Giselle.

Dragon Posting!

Love and acceptance

Knocked out a couple chapters of The Hobbit on my lunch break. Smaug is a filthy piece of shit capitalist and I wish nothing but bad things happen to that dragon. :3

Might start working on my Vampire and Witch Urban Fantasy book. One part buddy comedy, one part found family, one part genuine horror due to the creatures involved. I think that'll be a good spot to start in terms of publishing Prose rather than my sci-fi/horror saga.

I'm excited to release Just the Browser! It helps you remove AI features, ads, shopping integrations, and other annoyances from desktop web browsers. This project includes configuration files, a simple setup script, and guides for manual installation. It supports Chrome, Firefox, and MS Edge.
