I've played Big Walk by @househouse.com with a couple friend groups, now. What a special game. If you've played, what did your group call the item you need to collect? We called them doingles.

Playing Final Fantasy I for the first time via the Pixel Remaster. The Buccaneer sure has some thighs (alas, they do not save lives). And I am amused the Troll looks like it has a big headache. 😂

😭😭😭

Today is my 25-year work service anniversary. My "1st day on the job" brain could not have comprehended I'd be at one job for this amount of time. My current brain? Also cannot comprehend that passage of time, lol.

This is so much free game. The copy pasta needs to be updated, now.

I neeeeeed this AI bubble to burst so the Bay Area can go back to having regular weird billboards. Saw a Shen Yun billboard today and was briefly relieved it wasn’t another damn AI billboard. 😩

When you forget to change your glam so you can see your facial expressions in a cutscene. >.>

I had the pleasure of listening to Samin Nosrat and Hrishikesh Hirway speak over the weekend. What a delightful evening!

I played the shit out of the Keflings games on xbox 360. I'm so happy to see this on Steam! 15 years old but still great. :D

is this how this works?

I commissioned @toondoodles.bsky.social to draw a chibi version of my FFXIV WoL, Dana Abernathy. I love it! And, of course, I had to get the Lesser Panda in there, my constant minion companion. :3

If any of you are so inclined, and are able to donate, the Hydrocephalus Association does important work, especially in the realm of NPH. My mom was not famous like Billy Joel, but she lived with NPH too, and it is a hard disease, despite the hopeful years her shunt gave her. www.hydroassoc.org

Might be a rocky start but don't worry, he'll be much better in a few years as Pope Leo XIV: A Realm Reborn

eeeeeeeeeee

With the demise of Joann's, I'm going to share a few online resources I've found. It's by no means exhaustive, but hopefully it helps folks find what they need. 🧵

Having a coffee in New York City with the incredible @neilnewbon.bsky.social

The @remedygames.com internal code name for Alan Wake 2 was ”Big Fish”. I think David Lynch is swimming with the big fish now. Rest in peace. His influence goes far and wide and will live on.

What we found was one of the very worst examples of workplace abuse in the history of this industry. That may sound hyperbolic. I really don't think it is. Here's our investigation: www.youtube.com/watch?v=RR9H... (5/7)

Back in 2021, PMG reported on the unseen games industry crunch taking place at outsourcing studios in SE Asia. Since then, the companies we looked at have continued to work on some of the biggest games in the world, without any push to improve the conditions of the artists doing that work. (1/7)

Bought some strawberries at the farmers’ market this morning, some of which I turned into David Lebovitz’s strawberry sour cream ice cream, which is so yummy and full of strawberry flavor. Also made a fresh loaf of King Arthur Baking’s sandwich bread for the week.

The Sad Bastard Cookbook is a radical mutual aid project. I like the print edition, but the ebook is free! traumbooks.itch.io/the-sad-bast...

I look forward to this every year and it did not disappoint. I got 24/38 points, though, so I did disappoint. 😂

Finished a sweater! This is Saga’s Sweater from Alan Wake II. Remedy, the developer, published a knitting guide for it in 2023, so I decided to make it. It’s been rainy here so it took 2 days to dry. 😂

Games I finished in 2024, a running list: 17. Hidden Through Time 2: Discovery More "Hidden Through Time!" No change to gameplay, but still fun if you enjoy hidden object stuff.

Did some gaming this year. o.ov Kind of wish the idle games could be excluded from the recap (2 of the games in my list are idle games).

IT BEGINS 🎄 the 2024 festive Tournament of Champions is upon us! youtu.be/CYk7MSAV0wI

Can we get the United Healthcare shooter onto this problem as well?

So excited for this. I love the annual challenges. :D (Always secretly hoping Jane gets the FIFA giant killer challenge, or whatever it may be called now.)
