Today's literary complaint: please know what historical clothing items are before using the terms. The book im reading replaced every usage of "pants" with "braies." Braies are underwear. Nobody in this book is wearing trousers.

all the AI companies are talking about "AGI" being the next big thing, but Sierra On-Line figured out AGI back in 1984

This week has been crazy busy. First there was a stat holiday, then I started physio which has turned my schedule all around. Sorry to the YouTube watchers, I'll get back to posting VODs next week.

I downloaded the new stable release of ScummVM so I can hopefully stream KQIV Redux. Something may be slightly wrong...

Seeing if I can finally defeat my worst enemy- OBS. I'm playing Dredge! www.twitch.tv/PrincessPear...

A quote from my Twitch stream last night "I really think that in North American culture we're weirdly separated from death. It's something everyone on earth has to deal with unless they cut themselves off from everyone. (Pause) Yeah, Teletubbies WAS a weird show."

OBS, why do you crash when i go to start my stream?

Everything was going badly in the game I was streaming. Then my laptop crashed and put me out of my misery. We'll try more Kings Quest 2015 next week!

Just saw a piece of furniture advertised as being made from "skin friendly fabric" and I didn't appreciate that.

It was a struggle to set up but I think I've done it- tonight I'm playing a game on Xbox! Specifically, Kings Quest 2015. The Kings Questening continues, live from my living room instead of my office! Https://www.twitch.tv/princesspearlmermaid

My xbox is now connected to my laptop which is connected to my tv, as well as having my camera and microphone connected to the laptop. There are cables everywhere. How do console streamers deal with this?

Have you had enough of King's Quest 3? Good. Because as far as I know I've run out of versions of it to play- let's move on to King's Quest 4 Retold (now with pointing and clicking)! www.twitch.tv/princesspear...

In today's reading weirdness, I'm reading a book that has a car chase. I forgot it takes place in England and they drive on the left, so part way through the scene I had to stop and reimagine everything.

If you have Instagram and don't interact with it, it is the NEEDIEST APP EVER. They send me EMAILS. They send me FACEBOOK NOTIFICATIONS. I don't care that people have posted 85 photos! If I cared about them I would look at the darn app!

I just thought everyone should see this

I've found something worse than historical authors writing about corsets as if they were torture devices- it's authors thinking that men wearing stockings meant they were wearing pantihose.

Didn't get enough of Kings Quest III last week? Good. Because I'm now playing an EVEN DIFFERENT version, this time from Infamous Adventurers! Gwydion, you rapscallion, what are you up to this time? www.twitch.tv/princesspear...

The ultimate puzzle of trying to play indie games- figuring out which "download" button on the website is real and which ones are ads for viruses.

8 years ago today my YouTube channel got demonetized for not having enough subscribers. I still don't have enough subscribers, but if you want to watch my Twitch VODs or really old swimming videos, that's where they are! www.youtube.com/@Princess_Pe...

Yay, I'm pretty much over my cold! Just in time to hurt my knee from too much stair climbing!

Just got recommended a book with "Puck/fuck" pun in the title. I assumed it was about the woodland spirit of British folklore, was disappointed it was about hockey.

It's been a couple of months, but we're returning to the great King's Questening! Also returning to the lland of Llewdor with Kings Quest III Redux! www.twitch.tv/princesspear...

After two weeks of insomnia I managed to sleep for nearly 12 hours straight, including sleeping through my alarm. I only woke up because my husband purposefully got me out of bed for work.

The amount I whine about being uncomfortable is inversely proportionate to how uncomfortable I am. Sprained ankle that has me using a cane for months? That's fine, don't want to be a bother, I'll walk home. A head cold? NO ONE HAS SUFFERED AS I DO!

I need to do some sort of Regency thing because I have just come up with the name Lady Watts-Harefice which gets constantly mispronounced as Whats her face and it amuses me. YES I AM STILL SICK AND MY BRAIN IS FOGGY

Starting off the New Year wrong with a cold. Happy 2026, everybody!

Why is the word litter, when used regarding cats, both a collection of babies and a place where the cat poops? #showerthoughts

Everyone: "When I see someone talk about MTG, it's never the one I want it to be about." Me: Here, hope that helps

Dear story I am reading, I don't care how spooky you're trying to be. The hero did NOT find secret catacombs under St. Louis Cemetery No. 1 in New Orleans. There aren't even dug graves in St. Louis Cemetery No. 1, thats the point of it.

Random Dosember Saturday stream because I can! Conquest of the Longbow! www.twitch.tv/princesspear...

Merry Fishmas to all, and to all a good night.

This is dumb, but people wanted the meowing chicken from Gabriel Knight on a t shirt. Now it is on a shirt and a bunch of other stuff. www.cafepress.com/shop/Princes...

I don't like when in fantasy novels they use words that have very clear Earth connections. Don't have the walls of the temple are made of labradorite, that's named after a place in Canada. Don't say the magical metal is duralumin, that's a trademarked name. AND NO, I don't have a solution.

The time has come to Quest Gloriously (and probably die a lot) with the continuing adventures of Normal Man in Quest for Glory 1 EGA! www.twitch.tv/princesspearlmermaid

Learning pixel art so I can improve my Twitch emotes. It's like the opposite of a Monet- it looks good when I'm zoomed in, but when I zoom out it's a big old mess.

Somehow I have never played the first game in my favourite series of all time. Let's remedy that. Quest for Glory 1 EGA! www.twitch.tv/princesspear...

I just found out that if I try and render a video in Da Vinci resolve to a drive that doesn't have enough space, it will SAY it's done and only actually render part of the video! Hooray!

I finally got my book that was on hold from the library. Now my new nemesis is the publishing industry, because the next book I wanted WAS published in 2023 and now it's been pulled and won't be available again until Februray? How is that a thing?

Just finished playing Gabriel Knight 3 last early this morning. Now I'm at work and the Da Vinci Code is on TV. Apparently it is Holy Grail day for me

Gabriel Knight 3 is the best 3D adventure and I will fight anyone who argues. www.twitch.tv/princesspear...

Through a YouTube comment I have been informed I skipped a bunch of stuff in my on stream GK3 playthrough due to a glitch. Should I a)go back and replay or b)just continue?

Chatting with someone in my caroling group who I've known for a couple of years and have sung with multiple times. He only just realized the blonde carol singer (me) is the same person as the pink haired mermaid he took a photo with at the pirate festival (also me).

I started my day with 12 items on my to do list. Through hard work, determination and grit, and I have managed to get that down to 16 items.

I started writing a book on lions. It turned out to be quite tricky and, frankly, damn dangerous, so I went back to regular paper. #WritingCommunity #BookSky #WriteSky

Gabriel Knight 3 is a good game and you should watch me play it. www.twitch.tv/princesspear...

Christmas music has been on the work PA for one hour and thirty eight minutes. I'm already sick of it.

In The Labyrinth of Time, entering the Ziggurat without a lantern is supposed to show a black screen. However, the developers put in the wrong filename for the black screen, so it fails to render, showing a black screen instead

The game is up and running, the technology has been tested, and we don't have to worry about the cat hair moustache anymore. Time for more Gabriel Knight 3! www.twitch.tv/princesspear...
