Hey people who got ROG Xbox things for review... did Xbox handle the PR on these things or was it a ROG thing? Kinda curious since once of the big mental blocks people seem to be having is around the whole use of the Xbox name.

It is very good that Discord seemingly built their initial game list from games/apps that show up in their activity feed and somehow pulled the box art for Dolphin for the 2600 when everyone is actually running Dolphin the Emulator. I hope they never change it.

They got everything I like, so...

Hmm. I do like that they give you room to say why a game is your favorite.

OK, I don't know what's going on here, their game list is just bad. They have Valorant on here but nothing with the words "Super" and "Mario" in it? Gross!

Discord added "favorite game" lists and other profile stuff but they're missing the key video games! Insane! At least I can suggest that they add it.

Glad to see linkedin is looking out for me on the job front. Never know when you might need a new position like "President and CEO at Center for Victims of Torture."

The boy is collecting all the stickers hidden in We Love Katamari and they're all based on older Namco games, so there's currently a four-year-old walking around my house saying "Splatterhouse 2" over and over again and laughing about it.

Unfortunately Plex seems to be too cowardly to accept/display reviews of adult films.

I've decided to start reviewing movies on Plex because I don't really care about letterboxd all that much but I _do_ like the idea of my stupid stuff showing up at the bottom of the screen when someone is trying to watch their bootleg copy of the hit film, Speed Zone.

Wow. Huh. Hmm. I've done a good job of blocking the specifics of those games out, but my gut feeling is that this is worse? I remember those being... generally inoffensive? Certainly not good, but not awful in the way Battlefield 6 is.
