Cleaning out my closet and somehow I found 11 NES controllers.

Why the hell do I have that many

It has been 100 days since Giant Bomb has done the science and ranked fighting games.

It feels so wrong to not see some science done for this long.

New on the Secret Area: A little weekend writing about Call of Duty: Warzone, a battle royale mode that I should've disliked but somehow finally clicked.

Yesterday, a few friends and I were talking about the Crysis remaster, and it reminded me of a blog post I wrote back in 2014 about briefly playing games on Intel Integrated graphics.

And yes, it could run Crysis.

dang it I've been eating too many peanut butter eggs lately

had a dream where I was wearing stuff like a dress, tights and socks and felt so pretty

then I woke up and don't feel pretty anymore

I totally forgot that I didn't share that post here on Mastodon until now, whoops

I understand the current crisis with COVID-19 has made a lot of us struggle with money, and I understand that.

If you can't donate, I recommend sharing my stuff, like this post I made back in March about Strife, the Doom engine game that was abandonware for a long time: https://asecretarea.com/2020/03/16/strife-dos/

Decided to put an upcoming post on my Patreon, see how that works out.

Just $1 will get you early access to that post.

About two weeks ago, I saw that infamous Cats movie with @mavica and friends.

Right now, parts of one of the songs is looping in my head.

I hate it.

Look, I understand people are bummed Bernie dropped out. So am I.

But I seriously can't stand those who are like "welp four more years of trump, why even bother"

Could we at least be *somewhat* optimistic here?

Okay, I didn't think alt-tabbing out of Modern Warfare 2019 and renaming the executable by putting a 1 at the end would stop the random crashing I was having, but it worked somehow.

Rewrote an old blog post about stuff I got in 2014, and I forgot I bought Rayman Raving Rabbids for the GBA from a discount store.

It's still in the shrinkwrap with the original stickers.

I wonder if it's any good.

It's 11 o'clock and I wanna sleep
wanna get my body filled with z's
