Good morning my friends. 240am. Playing some Pokemon Legends Z-A and having coffee. Letting these shingles meds do their work. I hope you all have the day you dream it will be. Feel free to say hello if you need someone to talk to!

As I just turned 40, I’ve learned to accept the kind of gamer I am. And always will be. I’m a game hopper. I run 4 games at a time on average. And it’s how I find joy and comfort in my passion.
Currently running Expedition 33, ACNH, FF7 Remake. Debating on picking up Legends ZA too.

Hey #Pokemon friends. I haven’t played Pokemon since the summer. Went through quite a burn out. But I’m slowly missing it and finding myself wanting to pick it up back is Legends Z-A good? Is it improved? Is it worth the price of admission? Any info is appreciated.

After being held in two of them as a boy, I fought for decades urging America to never again build concentration camps and put human beings in them. It breaks my heart to watch this happen twice now in my own lifetime.

Going to be hard to finish E33 when my wife just gifted me the FF7 Remake Intergrade on switch 2. Not even Shingles can make me feel bad when I’ve got such a selection of amazing games at my fingertips!

Level up day. It be my 40th birthday. I’m celebrating it by playing ACNH and dealing with the shingles. A real mixed bag of emotions. But, it’s the start of another trip around the sun for me. Gotta stay positive and keep moving forward!

This is our reality, and we all must act accordingly.
The official policy of the government of the United States of America is that they will murder anyone they want, that they will tell any lie necessary to justify that murder, and that no one who resists them has any rights they are bound to respect.

ICE kidnapped a child to use as bait, they tear gassed & hospitalized a 6 month old, shot a 16 year old & killed two US citizen. This is NOT about keeping Americans safe and if you still believe that please do us all a favor and get a lobotomy since you're close enough to the brain activity of one.

Good morning. Three days until I’m 40. I’m fine. It’s fine. Absolutely not drowning in memories of yesterday while playing more Expedition 33.
Time for a cup of coffee. That’s always a solid partner in my morning gaming adventures.

ICE are abducting 5 year olds, using them as bait to get to their family, and shipping them to a Texas concentration camp all in a single day.
We need a Nuremberg for everyone involved. Abolish ICE isn't enough.

TACO's big Greenland deal is ... exactly what has existed for half a century? And to get it, he blew up international law, irreparably damaged America's diplomatic standing with the EU, crashed the market, and showed his whole ass, again, to a world sees right through him?

Five days until I turn the big 4-0. I’m 41% through Expedition 33. Can I complete it as my last act of my 30s? Will I feel joy and satisfaction one more time before I’m officially middle aged? Am I ever going to accept the fact I’m having a midlife crisis? Find out next time on Dragonball Z!
