It's really funny to learn about things like these because I don't know celebrity trivia at all.
I only remember this guy as the perv from Armageddon.

Reminder that Steve Buscemi, National Treasure, used to be a firefighter, and when 9-11 happened, he pulled 12 hour volunteer shifts with his old ladder. www.independent.co.uk/arts-enterta...
In case you want to know the first thing I remember about him. :)

I just leaned in close with my cat, and he tapped my nose with his nose. Aww.
Then he lowered his head and moved forward to do that head rub that cats do to each other. But I didn't catch on, so his head just bumped straight into my nose.
I think I just did the cat version of missing a fist bump.

Normally your default party members in gachas are pretty throwaway, but I kinda like both Perlica and Chen in Endfield.
I noticed that personality-wise, Chen is quite similar to Amber from Genshin. I liked Amber too, so maybe I just like that character type.

Okay. Usually I think bacteria in Elite Dangerous is not as hard to find as people make it sound. Usually it is distinguishable enough from a distance.
But this? This is BS.
The bit in the middle of the screen here is bacteria, and I'm supposed to be able to spot it.

I'm getting close to the galactic core now. The stars are getting really densely clustered together, and it looks really nice.
Kinda like the view you get on a clear night in an area without much light pollution.

I'm not sure what to do with my character selector in Endfield. I could get the fire tank lady because I don't have her, but I'm tempted to just get a Last Rite dupe so that I don't have to build another character.

I convinced my wife to pick up There Is No Antimemetics Division because I've heard good things about it and liked the original. She seems to be enjoying it so far.
Surprisingly, she says one of the plot devices in this book is nearly identical to something she's seen in an otome game before.

Wait Endfield doesn't need malls because you can just whip up stacks of buildings on the spot? Wow.
Though I guess that makes the game a hell of a lot more accessible.

Not content with making a game that feels like getting a lobotomy, they had to make the story behind its title feel like one too.

Came across another one of these in Elite Dangerous while exploring.
When I first saw one, I thought it was a graphical glitch of some sort. But apparently there are neutron stars that spin this fast?
I don't know what looks realistic in this game and what doesn't.

I'm not sure why Endfield made one of its collectibles one of those parking lot wacky inflatable flailing arm things, but it's pretty funny that they did.
