this blowout is cool and everything but the wind is definitely leaving my sails being reminded that 2025 Max Scherzer is going to start a playoff game for the Blue Jays.

Like, obviously I play a lot of Balatro, it's on my phone, I can play it whenever, but I started Red Dead 2 yesterday and got invested for hours, I'm dabbling a bit with Cyberpunk 2077, I 100%'d Hollow Knight and then bought Skong basically right after.

it's weird and oddly refreshing to be playing so many single player games recently after pouring thousands of hours into online multiplayer for the past 6 years or so (fucking CHRIST)

With all the Xbox news there's been a lot of discussion about the inevitable death of Xbox, and in a lot of these discussions both in essay and online, there's a lot of reverence for when Xbox was good, the 360, where they were so powerful they managed to match Sony's worst performing console.

I don't know if Cal Raleigh got snubbed for AL C GG, but I do know that not enough people know how incredible Dillon Dingler, Carlos Narváez, and Alejandro Kirk were behind the plate this year.
