I'm Fox 👋
I've been here since the 80's and I don't really have a theme to my account, I'm just a guy that likes games, music, wrestling, having a few laughs with mutuals and getting my thoughts out.

I post poems here too, but I also archive them at www.pillowfort.social/FoxPug

FoxPug

Although I have a variety of interests, this blog will primarily serve to publish my poems in a public space. With that said, hi! I'm Fox.I've been whizzing around the sun since the 80's ...

No silly answer from me this time.

This is Alien Storm for Sega Megadrive/Genesis and it is FN awesome!

I grew up doing couch co-op with my cousin with this one 😄
If you've never played it, it's on the MD/Genesis Collection you can buy for consoles and PC.

Pre-ai, I felt like people in general were becoming intellectually lazy because they could reach into their pocket and Google surface level information without fact checking or genuine comprehension.

It was bad enough before letting a bot do it for them.

Yo, if any of my mutuals play Pokémon Go, can I add you? 😅

It got late so figured I'd watch Terrifier
My wife (notoriously coulrophobic) wanted to watch with me, so I agreed as long as she let me know if it gets too much I'll turn it right off.

Somehow she's unfazed by Art and actually wants me to put the next one on 😂

Very proud of her bravery 🎃🖤 🧡 💚 💜🎃

Looks amazing, but I hear they're releasing 'Street Burger III: Third Bite' next year

👻🎃FoxPug🎃👻 @foxpug.bsky.social · 5d

True that

Maybe even just release a wave of upgraded out of the box systems as an option alongside whatever hardware upgrades become available for those that just want to boost what they already own.

👻🎃FoxPug🎃👻 @foxpug.bsky.social · 5d

That's exactly why console generations really ought to be even further apart than back then.

We're never likely to see drastic leaps like this again. Just performance upgrades and maybe some features.

Here's a moody depression poem or something 🤗

"Living Ghost" #PoetrySky

Living Ghost

I have nothing much to say
Light-hearted words that carry no weight
Soft-spoken, unserious whispers
Fading away

I am a jester without a court

When I find something to say
My words were found in a darker place
Gravity grounded, melancholic whimpers
Mourning the day

I am a prophet droning ignored

Maybe there's nothing to say?
Every word withers and decays
Dust and ashes, fragmented and splintered
Better this way

I am a ghost without a corpse

For me it'd have to be RE1 on PSX

I know you probably mean graphics overall, but those cutscenes (regardless of acting quality 😂) were so new to me I couldn't believe it was happening

😂 I actually like this one!

I don't know if it's nostalgia for having had (and enjoyed it) when I was a kid, but I played it in recent years and still didn't hate it.

😂 RFK thinks circumcision causes autism now? I know that the average dude's brain is in the vicinity, but c'mon!!

Look, I'll be the first to say don't circumcise your kids unless it's medically necessary, but it did not cause a single case of autism.

Just stop. You're a moron!

It bombed? That is a shame

Finally caught it last month on Peacock and had a fun time. It took a tone shift from the first, but it wasn't unwelcome.

Regardless of the silliness, I appreciate that it tongue-in-cheek warns that we need to solve AI alignment and practice ethical use of the tech.

Sometimes I feel like a kid with his nose pressed against the display window of a toy store on here 🥲

I want so many games.

Hell yeah! Finally getting this at home 😄

It's okay 😌 I've got Biffy Clyro on repeat lately and I'm sure I'm going to end up having my wife get sick of it soon.

You all laughed when I turned down the drink and drugs...

Called me frigid when I wouldn't fuck around!

Well you're all dead and I'm not 😌... Bitches!

Ardyn's whole story and character
😌👌

That alone made me love it deeply
The fact that it has so much more going for it than just that makes it a masterpiece.

👻🎃FoxPug🎃👻 @foxpug.bsky.social · 12d

Louder!

It doesn't get anywhere near the love and appreciation it deserves because people stubbornly feel like any new entry is a personal attack on their nostalgic favorite if it dares to deviate from formula.

Final Fantasy XV is one of the best games in the franchise.
