I also spent a horrible amount of time on To Arms!, one of the first mobile-only deckbuilders after Dream Quest (Play Store says it debuted in 2015, sheesh). And that game was just a grid of static pixel people.

You know those jokes about white people being so bad with food they make chicken salad with RAISINS in it?
I bought dried cranberries to eat with yogurt.
There's a chicken salad recipe on the back. It's called "Farmer's Chicken Salad."
Farmers, who famously eat chicken with dried cranberries.

And I think my answer is the Adventures of Lolo series. If you've played any mobile puzzle games, like Monument Valley or The Room, then I think you'd look at the Lolo games like a new series of escape-the-room puzzle games. I don't know any games that exactly do what Lolo does.

At the start of 2025, I made a huge playlist of albums from 2024 that I wanted to check out.
I was getting ready to say that my favorite album of 2024... was an album from 2014. The 10-year-anniversary edition showed up in my feed as a 2024 album, and I assumed it was some amazing new hyperpop.

I was sitting in the truck, eating yogurt and cereal, and this little monster wouldn't leave me alone. I gave in to terrorism and gave it a piece of cereal to leave me alone.

Google Play sent me a $20 coupon off a purchase of at least $99.
I can't think of any app or game that costs $99 alone, so I assume that's only for $99 of gacha currency.
This seems... exploitative.

It's hard to describe the "real" experience of playing FF1 because I had the Nintendo Power guide, and I was obsessed with just looking up the stats for each item and reading each map instead of exploring and trying things out on my own. Like you'd need a full guide for such a primitive RPG.

On the one hand, Facebook seems like an abusive boyfriend with how angry it gets that I'm not there.
But then I log back in, and 121 of those notifications are just "Person you follow posted to day!" like the most desperate incel begging you to look at them.

@michaelhobbes.bsky.social This is all your fault. Why haven't you been bridging the gap between principle and policy to train impressionable young liberals into an ideological cadre???

The answer: liberals don't mentor new talent because they assume that the universities are all liberal and do all of the work for them!

If I click this link and it doesn't say "because the billionaries with enough money to start cultural revolutions as a hobby don't vote for liberals" then I'm going to pay someone to drive past the Vox offices and throw eggs at them.

In the Arizona desert, went to a hole-in-the-wall Indian cafe beside the truck stop. Big plate of eggplant, lentils, rice, and bread for $15. Couldn't even finish it all. Nice to get a big truck stop meal that wasn't just fried food.
And then looked up the Gmaps reviews, saw this fun exchange.
