Metroid Prime 4: Wind Waker
December 5, 2025 at 7:42 PM
Metroid Prime 4 is not the Metroid I think most people initially expected, but it definitely stands on its own

Closer to Corruption than the first two entries. Not finished with it yet but so far it has been delightful!

I did not hit her, it’s not true! It’s bullshit! I did not hit her! I did naaat! Oh hai, Charlie Brown.
My name is Maximus Decimus Meridius, commander of the Armies of the North, General of the Felix Legions, loyal servant to the true emperor, Marcus Aurelius. Father to a murdered son, husband to a murdered wife. And I will have my vengeance, in this life or the next, Charlie Brown.
We’re going to need a bigger boat, Charlie Brown

I would pay a lot of money to see a Godzilla themed wrestling event where all of the wrestlers are just different monsters

This year can kick rocks, but knowing I’m not alone in that sentiment is comforting

Artist tapes for Aquaaris arrived today

Very pleased with the results, and excited to hold my music.

Little secret: the front cover wraps around. Open the gate to descend into the caverns below!

Found a bandcamp account that was hosting songs they definitely do not have the rights to.

Reported it to bandcamp a week ago and today I got a notice they removed the music after a review.

Pretty neat to see that actually happen on a major internet platform for once.

Apparently there is a named Federation NPC in Metroid Prime 4

With time travel as a possible plot point, calling it now that this guy will end up being Sylux, and this game is his origin story.

Your living space does not stop at your front door, but extends outward and beyond.

One of the biggest mindset shifts needs to be that no one owns the streets. No one owns the forests, the seas, the mountains.

These are all ours, and we must take care of our home as it tries to do with us.

New album is composed and “listenable”, and if things pan out soon with some of the *extras* then it will be on to mixing, mastering, and final touches.

Vague and teaser-y, yeah, but that’s all I can say for now, otherwise I’ll get ahead of myself here and blab on

More to come next year!

Science people: if you are traveling fast enough, when facing the direction of travel would you see things are brighter?

Kind of like drag on an airplane but with light photons, would more photons in your eye = brighter?

Random Q for any ornithologists out there:

Are there any bird species that excel at sightless flight? Like through thick marine layers or exceptionally foggy days.

I was thinking maybe bats would be good at this as well.

Super curious!

Just a reminder that if you have a kindle you can easily jailbreak (a new one just came out) it and load it up with purchases from Booskhop and other sites. You can even purchase direct from authors.
Amazon is helping fund a $300 million build of a ballroom for the White House.

Independent bookstores are donating to food banks and organizations that help with food insecurity.

They are not the same.

I want income equality because it’s not fair that by the time I might be able to afford a home years from now my older cat may not be around or able to enjoy all the cool cat stuff we’ll do to the house

The internet kind of made book bans a pointless endeavor.

Like now I’ll just go find an epub of that thing you don’t want me to read and read it, when I didn’t even know it existed before.
