Starting to think that everyone having unrestricted access to the entirety of the internet all of the time was maybe a societal net negative actually

I was on parental leave for the last round of end-of-year holidays, and I’m telling you, that’s the way to do it.

What do you mean I have to work *and* plan for holidays. That’s too much stuff

Normalize things just being normal for two consecutive seconds please I’m begging

I had a dream that I was watching the new Beatles Anthology special early, and they’d just made up a whole new girlfriend for John Lennon’s early life, and digitally inserted her into a bunch of old photos of the group. And everyone was just… treating it like fact.

Her name was Rosie Parker.

That’s a wrap on Age of Imprisonment. Mixed feelings on this one, but I’m glad I played it. Very high highs, and that finale… chef’s kiss.

I started reading Strange Pictures because the premise seemed sort of fascinating, but I will simply say, around 75 pages in: this is probably a bad thing to read immediately before falling asleep 📚

I had a coworker who was like this, constantly operating in bad faith and with the assumption that everything was meant in the worst possible way (and as an attack on them, specifically and individually). It was exhausting.
call me crazy, but i don’t think it’s healthy to be this anal and pedantic about every tiny perceived offense — you don’t have to live your life assuming the worst about everyone and actively seeking to find offensive things in even the most mundane places

Firefly: And now, members of the cabinet, we'll take up old business.
Member: I wish to discuss the tariff.
Firefly: Sit down, that's new business. No old business? Very well… we'll take up new business.
Member: Now, about that tariff…
Firefly: Too late, that's old business already. Sit down.

Ahead of the Analogue 3D launch, I picked up two more games that were criminally missing from my collection until now.

Hey, so it’s kind of dumb how many counterfeit N64 games are floating around on eBay for like, really popular and high-selling games of which there are no real shortage anyway

If you see this, QTP with a sequel that really hits!

“New Epstein Files put the White House on defense”

Honestly, it’s beyond incredible that there’s still a resident in the White House at this point

Looking forward to the fifty-page dissertation about how the phrase “the dog that didn’t bark” actually means he’s innocent
