I spent the morning replaying Gunstar Heroes and I regret nothing.

I just got home, and as you can see, I had plenty of time to think about how I should have wrapped the entirety of "heavier than usual" in quotes instead of just "usual" because I'm stupid.

If it says this every single day, is it REALLY heavier than "usual"?

I'm tired and want to go to sleep, but my eyes refuse to let me. Whenever I close my eyes, I don't really know how to describe it, I see a colorful moving pattern. The closest analog I can think of for how it looks is the time travel sequence from Chrono Trigger.

lol, Caesar's such a goober

Things I want to do: sleep Things I don't want to do: also sleep

going on twitter now is like the dark world part of link to the past, where the shape of things is roughly the same only now instead of the friendly villagers there's some demihuman freak snarling at you going "welcome to the village of assholes!! we hate you!!" also the trees shoot bombs now

I love this.

Who wants to go to Duluth with me to see Hatsune Miku in May?

Northern lights! I’ve never seen em like this from my backyard!

An instruction manual in the box that I can immediately bury my face in and take a big whiff of after opening it for the first time. What?

“0% woke shit” a black man with a physical disability leads an environmental terrorist cell trying to save the planet from mega-billionaires and you play as a cross dressing twink femdomed by two different women ending and the final boss against the gayest angel of all time

Still my personal favorite iteration of Double Dragon. Neon deserved a sequel instead of... whatever the hell is happening with Double Dragon these days.

I'd like to give a big thanks to my internal clock for waking me up TWO FUCKING HOURS BEFORE MY ALARM. Appreciate it. Really. Wide-ass fuckin awake now.

Hi Tired, I'm Mike. Mike Emicalromance.

Boosting this because I just smashed into a curb on the way to work and got a really fuckin bad flat tire!!!

Rick is here!! Here's an old drawing I did of Rick from Kirby. I'm really happy he's in Kirby Air Riders :) #Kirby #Nintendo #Art

Motion to ban kettle chips from office environments. All in favor, say "aye."

Words I use at work in Teams and email communications that I typically don't use outside of the office: "Fantastic!" "Have a great day!"

Wuh-oh! I just had to spend $1500 to fix my car! Anyway I am still open for commissions and I have a ko-fi! If you want some little emotes or icons or whatever, lemme know! ko-fi.com/j_ciner

My Xbox controller wakes my Steam Deck even though they aren't paired (my controller is paired with my desktop). Anyone else experience this?

The Impresario from the OC Remix Final Fantasy VI arrange album "Balance and Ruin" by Jake Kaufman and Tommy Pedrini is a masterpiece. It has a clearly Queen-inspired sound. My favorite track from the album. Give it a listen if you've got ~9 minutes to spare. youtu.be/Ln9Sq7IOP3o

Imagining Jack Frost, Pikachu, and Agumon having a conversation

Magic: The Gathering is the Fortnite of CCGs

Just sitting here thinking about the PlayOnline Viewer BGM. Memories of Final Fantasy XI flooding back. youtu.be/n6mxRUKehtE

Putting far more effort into this than I reasonably should tbh

The amount of scam and bot accounts this post attracted is a little obscene. I'm an artist myself with artist friends. I'll either do the new profile picture myself, or commission ~one of my friends to do it~ Seriously, get the fuck out of my mentions.

I really need a new profile picture since I don't play Splatoon anymore.

Commission me to draw emotes for your Discord server or Twitch channel. I dare you 🔪

This seems a little... broken. #zzzero

Doug Bowser got too much heat for not being Reggie Fils-Aimé and decisions that might have been ones that came down from Nintendo Japan. By all accounts, he was very much respected and liked inside Nintendo.

I forget the context for this stupid joke.

Wow, I REALLY do not like these new brushes in Procreate. At all.

My Pixel just updated and holy shit, this new android update is ugly as sin.

Anyone else have a favorite Start button on any given controller?

SaGa Frontier. Always and forever.

Welp, I guess I'm just on a Ben Folds kick now, getting nostalgic about my younger days. I love this song. The entirety of Rockin' the Suburbs is great youtu.be/7_xQ4o796H0?...

Slow day at work, so I'm just sitting here rediscovering one of my favorite albums of all time. youtu.be/_HUH5G1x610?...

Commision Raine. Do it.

I mean yeah Dude Wipes are super corny but at least straight men are wiping their ass for the first time.

"retro" has always been whatever console is 2+ generations behind. you have the current generation, the previous generation, then everything after is retro. any posturing otherwise is a desperate attempt to bargain yourself into not feeling old. wii is retro. xbox 360 is retro. memento mori bitch

I'm happy with that direct. Lots of stuff in there for me.
