I just read that only 8% of registered voters in Texas actually showed up, and people here wonder why this state has gone to hell. That tree had one fucking job.

Went to my public library to do my civic duty today, and while I was there I decided to check out some manga.

Me after a couple of weeks with the Steam Deck

Women started fandom. Women started fanfic. Women started star Trek cons. Women invented beer, and the novel, while we're at it. Stop trying to erase women from spaces, you stupid, lazy, misogynistic fucks.

So I finished The Excavation of Hob’s Barrow last night and WOW. The best thing I can say about it was that it felt like I was playing a Hammer Horror film from the late 60’s (and I’m a huge Hammer Horror fan). I could see the film in my head, the atmosphere of the game was that good.

That opening theme song….

Stoked.

Take this for what it’s worth (which is nothing), but in addition to their hometown team, I think every American NHL fan should also embrace a Canadian team as well. For me it’s the Ottawa Senators. #nhl

Latest pickups #CDFriday

None of the other PC handhelds have come up with a control layout as good as the Steam Deck either. The trackpads on the Deck are a huge plus. I can’t imagine trying to play something like FTL without them.

Define your music taste in 8 artists: Ok, here goes- 1. The Cure 2. Husker Du 3. Iron Maiden 4. Discharge 5. Wu Tang Clan 6. Cabaret Voltaire 7. Sun Ra 8. Gram Parsons

This game has its hooks in me so bad. It’s a point and click adventure in the style of the games I was into in middle school (stuff like King’s Quest and Maniac Mansion) and it’s SO DAMN GOOD.

Go Stars

Holy crap I can’t believe it’s been thirty years since the Nordiques moved to Colorado, it does not seem like it was that long ago

Oof, I have got to get in the habit of proofreading before I hit the post button…

It might not be their “best”, but’s probably my favorite. Whenever I want to listen to Exodus, more of then than not this is what I put on. #metalsky youtu.be/n65dfA6GOWo?...

friendly reminder you should not have a “favorite politician”

Been listening to this banger all day #metalsky rippedtoshredsdeathmetal.bandcamp.com/album/sanshi

I got a Steam Deck this week and now it’s my whole ass personality

So I’ve been watching Muv-Luv Alternative and overall I really like it so far, but damn the tonal shifts are jarring #anime

Ever wake up with your anxiety going through the roof for no particular reason? Good times.

I love building Gundams, but hate assembling Warhammer. 🤷🏻‍♂️

System of a Down Pillow

You + your fave Pokémon

31 episodes in on Gundam Seed Destiny and man, it’s so bad. Part of me just wants to say fuck it and quit, but the other part is like I’ve made it this far, I should power through. What say you, internet person? #gundam #gundamseeddestiny

Made beef with broccoli for dinner tonight, and I’m pretty damn happy with it.

Dam That River

I hadn’t paid much attention to Trench Crusade, but apparently Arch Warhammer and his followers hate it, so now I’m kinda interested.

Damn, first Depeche Mode, now Bowie. Ashes to Ashes, Queen Bitch, Jean Genie, Blue Jean, side 2 of Low in its entirety…

Oof, so damn many. Off the top of my head- Blue Dress, Nothing, World in my Eyes, Condemnation, A Wuestion of Lust

Current WIP. Mostly enjoying the build, but the hands are awful. Definitely going to replace them because not only are the functionally terrible, they look awful. Otherwise this kit is pretty awesome so far.

Reading along with @giantrobotfm.bsky.social

Haven’t been on in a hot minute because, you know, life and all. But regardless, I hope you’re doing well because you’re awesome.

The making of Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 could be made into its own movie. - Led by a former, bored Ubisoft dev - The team was almost all junior devs - Writer was found on Reddit - Composer was found on SoundCloud And it all came together beautifully.

I always find it funny when I see a YouTuber talking about hobby overconsumption while they’re standing in a room with wall to wall video and/or boardgames.

Pay no attention to the weird dad playing old videogames and listening to Skinny Puppy in the school pickup line… #retrogames #industrialmusic

Finished the Buster Gundam today. G this was my first Master Grade and damn, what a great build. I’ll do some further detailing (panel lining, waterslide decals and topcoat) later, but I think it looks great as is. #gundam #gunpla

Because it’s been waaaayyyy too long, Tuesday morning coffee and metal- The Mind is a Terrible Thing to Taste by Ministry #metalsky youtu.be/HMTY42v1Re4?...

PC Engine on the RP5 and Fad Gadget on the stereo #retrogamer #retroid

Do I think I’ll see any of these in Y? No, but that’s ok because I’m just stoked for a new SRW game.

And while we’re on the subject of giant robots, I’m pretty stoked for this too- youtu.be/jY0Od1l1MHU?...

The Nintendo Direct was great and all, but this is the news that matters!! (To me, anyway) youtu.be/SWzNfreQuZQ?...

Shadow Labyrinth= Grimdark Pac Man. I’m completely fine with this.

Halfway through this build and I’m becoming a Master Grade convert. This (so far) I think has been the most satisfying build I’ve ever done. #gunpla #gundam
