Pros of having Some Unknown Ailment: this year's Halloween costume is like, half done already.

Red Dwarf has aged beautifully. A perfect binging show.

The next week holds some hospital appointments that promise to answer a nagging question that has been burning in me for at least two months... And up to fifteen years. I am nervous and excited and scared to say the least.

Getting to review the remake of one of the most important games in my life is a dream come true. Final Fantasy Tactics is a masterpiece, and The Ivalice Chronicles does it justice. There are a few things preventing me from calling it perfect, but it's near enough. www.thegamer.com/final-fantas...

As one of the few people on this planet that has to play one of NYT's games as part of his job, I really FEEL Anna Garcia's Smartypants presentation on Dropout. Connections is EVIL. I LOVE it.

Let he who is without an embargo oopsie throw the first stone, just saying

People: There's a horrible lack of mentorship in this industry. Also people: Reach out? Nah, I'm just here for the pile-on.

Please oh please not seven more years of 3H discourse please let that not be Sothis

Are you ready for the most annoying 48 hour discourse cycle of your life

After a month of dealing with peripheral neuropathy and worrying about my spine, I FINALLY HAVE FEELING BACK IN MY FEET. Not 100% yet but flipping hell do I feel relieved.

Final Fantasy Tactics Advance Remake Announcement and Shadowdrop please

Malamounjaro. There, that is my contribution to the 'Mega Malamar = Skinny' jokes

Bit of personal news: after four years, I've been let go from @thegamerweb.bsky.social and am a free agent! If you need someone with half a decade of TCG and tabletop and over a decade of video game coverage experience, please get in touch at [email protected]!

Rewatching Yuri on Ice. Gosh, it's one of the best things. All the good feelings.

I have so many games in my backlog... But hello Phoenix Wright, nice to see you again 🥰

I went to Portmeirion today and oh gosh it's as magical as I dreamt

it fucken WIMDY

Long Story Short has me thinking about my mum’s heart attack a few months back and the confrontation of grief, trauma, and other emotions that brought. A little piece I’m quite proud of about the hardship of confronting things in life you can never be ready for. www.thegamer.com/long-story-s...

Let's see you at 21 (thereabouts, anyway)

Going on holiday with the in-laws this weekend and I am so excited to get away from normal life for a bit 🥹 it'll be a working holiday, but working in a new place will be nice.

At Gamescom, I spoke with Yoshi-P once again, and we chatted loads about Patch 7.3 (so be warned, there are spoilers), as well as the decision to include the original Sphene, whether we'll ever get another crafter or gatherer role, and more! www.thegamer.com/final-fantas...

Dealing with neuropathy is being a little bit relieved at the pain you feel when you stand on a teeny bit of glass. 🫠

Lost enough weight that my favourite shorts don't fit anymore, so getting mixed feelings about that

I gave homemade cinnamon rolls to friends today and they said nice things and I feel happy

4/5 bangers, and this doesn't include the fact that the first game on my Steam account was The Last Remnant, which came on a disc that was basically Steam plus a The Last Remnant code.

There's a part of me that really wants to try Content Creation™ and start making baking and cooking videos because that seems so fun A larger part of me is of the opinion that I'm not attractive nor funny enough to make it work, and that would be depressing

Went for a lovely walk and got absolutely destroyed by a surprise patch of stinging nettles 🫠

JK Rowling should be treated as a radicalising threat to the same extent that Andrew Tate is a radicalising threat.

I took a lovely picture of a bee inside a dahlia today.

Character customisation and Champions of the Continent stuff make that Octopath trailer a bit meh to me 🫠

My husband and my father really love to ~take the piss~

How to train your dragon was pretty good they should make an animated adaptation out of it

Rewatched the first two Bridget Jones movies and gosh I'm just so filled by light and joy and lift. Such pure unbridled happiness. Sally Phillips is quite possibly my favourite human on this planet, I'm discovering.

The days of being able to expect exciting stuff from Pokemon are over, guys, pack it up

Would love it if someone who knows birds could help us identify this squawky diva in white in the middle here

I have finally watched Whites, and oh gosh I wish I hadn't. This show deserved more. It's so, so, so good.

This industry man. Feels like a sinking ship at times. The sooner change comes, the better - whatever that change may be.

I hate [insert publisher here] too but if your "activism" is going after writers on poverty wages (who may very well be looking for other jobs as we speak) then I think you only give a shit about workers' rights for clout and prestige, not to actually help uplift anyone

Every single suggestion I've read from people who think Taskmaster and Dropout should crossover has been questionable to garbage 😐

Anyway I miss mock the week

Is getting a mullet always a sign of a breakdown, asking for a friend who is definitely not me

Gosh I need a drink

Delighted to announce our PS4 & PS5 release date for Lucy Dreaming - July 31st! 😍 Also, we've updated the game to include French, Italian and Spanish versions available across all platforms! ❤️ lucy-dreaming.com/dev/lucy-dre... #indiegame #indiegamedev #indiedev #indiegamedeveloper #gamedev

Took some nice pics today

More and more I find that I'm caring about things I shouldn't and not caring about things I should, and it is actively infuriating

It has been a planty day

@shootimpro.bsky.social are a total joy to see, super super fun night ✨
