Playing Darktide this evening and the quote of the night from my friend when he got a boltgun;

“It handles like a microwave but hits like a train”

So planning ahead for 2026.

- learn conversational Welsh
- pay off debts
- not loose my job
- stay at my current weight
- not get evicted.

Anything after that will be a bonus .

Much like Animal Husbandry being that underrated but awesome skill in a role playing game; I feel Logistics is the real world equivalent.

How to deal with me after a bad nights sleep based the hours of sleep I’ve managed to get;

6 - deal with normally
5 - deal with normally
4 - ply with coffee
3 - don’t get between me and the coffee
2 - there better be some coffee in the kitchen
1 - just hook the coffee machine to my veins!

Yes I’m one of those weirdos who prefers FF8 to FF7.

I like FF7, the music, the characters, the story and I have fully completed it.

But FF8 was the first one for me; I love the look and feel more; the cutscene when the gardens fight is epic.

I’ll take a gunblade over a buster sword any day.

Just remembered the time I ran an rpg with my friend (we had two parties) and in the final confrontation the last two remaining players rolled the exact same result.

Both I and my co-gm looked at each other with the exact same expression…..ok what the hell do we do now?

Playing the Shadows of Kerensky DLC for mechwarrior 5; and 3 things strike me.

1) thank heck I play this friends, playing solo would be horrific

2) why are the Clanners obsessed with shooting us in the head?

3) Elemental swarms are terrifying

And my tree is up.

It’s not the biggest, it’s not the prettiest, it’s decorated poorly, but it’s mine and now I have some cheer to enjoy

Screw it, it’s 4 days early but my Christmas tree is going up tonight.

I need a bit of cheer in my life right now.

My voice is gone, my ears still ring, I’ve managed to get only 4 hours sleep and I’ve got a 3 hour drive ahead of me.

Was finally seeing the Offspring live worth it?

Yes, yes it was.

Mentally I’m 20 again.

Part of me wants a sign for my house that’s the opposite of “Live, Laugh, Love”.

I’m thinking something akin to “Sleep, Frown, Cry”

“May you perpetually be one exp from achieving a level up”

A more modern take on the whole “A curse upon your house” thing.

To me, a program called the Great British Pottery Throwdown should be a channel 5 documentary about the historical war between Doulton and Worcester over their royal status.

So new theory to test.

The heavier my shoes, and lounder my clothing; the more stealthy I become.

I’m currently wearing steel toe cap boots and a bright pink boss hoodie and have had repeatedly had people say “where the hell did you come from?” when I turn up at their desk.

This week I am considering actually finish paint my imperial knight.

It’s been half painted for 3 years and I’m not sure if I can find all the bits.

But I’m seriously considering giving it a go.

A little something I’ve been working on.
