Birthday donuts, birthday gift, birthday pumpkins, birthday ren Faire tickets, birthday sushi and pumpkin roll later today.

I love her so much, always wish I could do more for her on every birthday.

When I'm old enough to look like a liche I'm going to trap my house and put random loot piles like this around.

If i have to cancel my chicago trip I'm sending a bill for any costs I can't recoup to the Whitehouse.

(Joke about Trump never paying bills goes here)

I need to hire a marketing department for every person on my team to have their messages reviewed before posting to make sure they don't sound like everything is fucking catastrophic.

X-box live, you're barely good enough to be $20 a month, what makes you think I'm going to keep you for $30 a month?

I worked for LDS for a significant duration while on a contract years ago. I clown on them all the time for the idiosyncrasies I saw there.

There's plenty of valid criticisms to throw at that church and their practices. Many are quite serious.

But what happened yesterday was 100% a tragedy.

Prepped for tomorrow, using my dnd group as a test kitchen...

This is a trap.

Ok I need just need a 13'x12' table to play this fully laid out with room for players to set things....

Some better pictures of the map and runes. I love that you actually find the included clue book at the end of the game.

Sir Cabirius and his dream may be gone buried. But Garamon and his brother's mistakes have been rectified.

The Slasher of Veils is no more and the citizens of the Abyss are safe.

What a fun puzzle of a game, rudimentary but not simple. A classic example of 3d game pioneering

If LinkedIn is still around on the day (if I ever can) that I retire my new favorite hobby will be trolling right wingers on the platform.

Which is almost everyone, because it's basically all just pro-business bootlicking sycophants jerking each other off.

Nearly 40 years ago I think was the first time I ever heard a Weird Al song. Dare to Be Stupid in the Transformers movie in 1986.

Today I got to see him and his band perform it live in full costume. Along with tons of other favorites.

Great way to end the weekend.

The end of the Age of Enlightenment for Brittania. Forced to come to terms with the unforseen consequences of the Avatars actions.

A seismic shift in gameplay and graphics. Now that I've beaten it, I'm going to go sip some mead and read the clue book that is written as if it were in the game.

Why would I use AI to write my storylines and adventures? I'm a bad enough writer myself!

UPS charging over twice as much for brokerage charges than the actual tariff itself. Get fuuuuucked.

Continuing my recent Ultima fixation. I got coin stands for all the included trinkets.

Ultima V pendant of the Codex.
Ultima VI Orb of the Moon.
Ultima Underworld magic runes.
Ultima VII pendant of the Fellowship.
Ultima VIII... I'm not really sure...

I love pre-release weekends for MTG. Somehow Spiderman and Avatar have sparked absolutely zero joy as I see previews. I think I'll be skipping the prereleases firs the first time since..... All will Be One.

And that's it. Unless I find myself with $2500 to throw at getting 1 and 2 this completes my official Ultima game collection. In a few weeks I'll have a box for 1 and 2 printed.

All but one standard item, an ankh from Ultima iv, in their boxes.

Feels good to have these on the shelf.

The Dungeon of Doom makes all other video game challenges look like a kids game.

The last of the truly "classic" Ultima games before graphics and gameplay would take a huge leap.

If you thought IV was an epic quest just wait until you save the world from the Shadowlords and Blackthorn!

Taking morning meetings from Mjomi this morning. With Ultima IV done it's time to read the book that comes with Ultima V do I can start it this afternoon, and experience the tale of The Warriors of Destiny.
