You can't logic your way out of being burnt out. Unless you're me. Who should be able to do it and it's a personal failing that I can't

Here's my Nintendo Direct bingo for Friday! I've got a good feeling about this one.

Nintendo Direct BINGUS BONGUS
Row 1: Ice Climbers photorealistic reboot, game in the sizzle reel that deserves way more than five seconds, PUNCH-OUT!!!, sandwich, Silksong unreleased (it was all a dream)
Row 2: Samus turns into a boat, Switch 2 exclusive Bloodborne remaster, I remember Mouse Mode exists (oh yeah), PROFESSA (with red tinted zoom blur on Luke and Professor Layton), kirby round
Row 3: Obligatory Mother 3 Bingo Square, incredible little guy, Internet is Mad (FREE SPACE), did you see they're doing a LEGO Game Boy it looks neat, Ninten-toes
Row 4: three rats, four rats, Mario is 40 (wasn't he just 35? oh no), Donkey Kong Bananza: The Lanky Update, Switch 2 retroactive price increase (we all owe Nintendo 20 bucks)
Row 5: Waluigi stirs, his spirit restless. His is a time beyond time, and yet soon our paths should cross once more. We need only wait a bit longer. Soon. Soon., Mr. Resetti tells you to delete the gachas off your phone, I just want to see him again (over the frowny face blob from Rhythm Heaven Groove), mario and sonic kiss, Virtual Boy added to NSO

Small reminder (to myself) that no matter how hard we try not every day will be the same - and that’s not a personal failure.

Non-binary includes people who are masc-presenting, folks. So don't be so fucking shocked when someone who could pass as a cis man turns up to your "women and non-binary" events.
Non-binary doesn't equal woman-lite.

Are you upset that Twitch used AI-generated imagery for multiple of their new category images instead of hiring creatives? Please tell them by up-voting and commenting on the UserVoice here: tinyurl.com/twitchimage Up-voting is great, commenting is better!

Installing Windows on a laptop I'm giving to my partner (used to be my linux playground).

I feel tainted.

Hyperbole, but the "no local account if Internet", the oopsie-poopsie cute-corporate lingo and the mere existence of ads in an OS is just... it's a lot, man.

The full thing! ( 1/2 )

The text "Shen Comix: Untitled Wolf / Sheep Comic (The Whole Thing)". The word "wolf" is stylized with wolf grey, light grey, and brown, with the "W" having a wolf tail and the "F" being a wolf claw. The word "sheep" look like it's made of wool, with a sheep ear on the "S" and the "P" and two ribbons on the two "E"s (blue, then reddish pink) making them look like small sheep. Also, there is the head of a wolf in a sheep costume in the top left, and the head of a sheep in the top right.

Panel 1: A wolf is in a sheep costume with a yellow ribbon on the neck. He's in a flock of sheep. He's thinking "Hehehe... They don't know I'm really a wolf."

Panel 2: A few of the sheep have approached the wolf. One is touching his 'wool', saying "oh my gosh, your wool is so soft!" Another is touching his ribbon, saying "and your ribbon is so pretty!"

Panel 3: The sheep are pulling him along with them somewhere, saying "c'mon, let's go dance in the meadow!" and "let's dance and graze!" He is smiling and beginning to blush.

Panel 4: Two wolves are sitting at a campfire. One has his head in his hands. The other is saying "It's been 4 days, where the hell is he."

Panel 1: A wolf dressed as a sheep with a yellow ribbon around his neck is dancing in a circle with a bunch of actual sheep, hands joined. They are all laughing merrily.

Panel 2: Closeup of the wolf laughing, having a good time just dancing together.

Panel 3: Still that closeup but he he now tied up in the dark somewhere.

Panel 4: We zoom out to see that he's tied up sitting on a rock in the forest, with two other wolves from his pack standing to either side of him. One is saying "we're definitely gonna have to do some 'de-programming' here."

Panel 5: The other wolf puts his head on the sheep-wolf's head and says "don't worry, buddy! We'll get you back to your regular wolf self in no time."

Panel 6: All three of them are now dressed as sheep and dancing in the circle.

Panel 1: A sheep is standing with a blank expression holding a hoof-glove in one of his hooves.

Panel 2: It's revealed that he took it off of a wolf in a sheep costume with a yellow ribbon. Maybe he tried to take the wolf by the hand and the glove game off, revealing his wolf claw, which is now outstretched towards him.

Panel 3: The sheep has an expression of absolute horror looking at the wolf. He says "you ... y-your ..."

Panel 4: The sheep, still with a horrified expression, looks down at the hoof and yells "YOUR HOOF FELL OFF!!!!"

Panel 5: Two sheep are carrying the wolf on a stretcher and one is running alongside with the hoof glove. The wolf is holding his claw up vertically like it's a broken hand.
