I made a new post yesterday to cover devolver digital's silly advergame

I moved my blog from the free Wordpress site to the current domain in March of last year.

To this day I am still updating posts to lead to posts on the current domain and not the old website.

Though I think I'm getting into the home stretch, as I updated all of 2018 and 2019's posts over the past couple of days.

A few days ago I heard Toto's 99 for the first time and it's become one of Those Songs that I keep playing on repeat for a while

It's been a long time since I have found a song like that

I'm enjoying listening to SomaFM's Underground 80s lately.

It's a mix of obscure songs I never heard of then stuff like New Order's Blue Monday or Talking Heads' Crosseyed and Painless.

That's what I can appreciate: the obscure stuff mixed in with stuff I'm *vaguely* familiar with.

feeling somewhat affectionate this evening

hi I'm mildly drunk and talking with peeps on discord

I'm okay with this.

I always seem to go through phases where I just like a *bunch* of Sonic fanart.

I mean, people draw Sonic and pals looking SO COOL, I can't resist liking it all

CS:CZDS is one of my guilty pleasure games.

It basically plays like a Half-Life mod but with more Counter-Strike stuff.

Honestly I'm more fascinated how that game was touched by five different development studios over the course of four years rather than the game itself

Vinesauce Joel is playing Counter-Strike: Condition Zero Deleted Scenes so badly that it's infuriating me

and I usually don't get angry at streamers/youtubers being bad at games.

Here's a Secret Area Throwback for this week: I look at a special Mortal Kombat PS2 Kontroller, one that might actually be better than the official DualShock 2 controllers.

This was originally a vlog, but I updated it to be a written post, more in line with the other posts on the blog.

Tried "wyngz" in an air fryer. Turned out okay.

Ate a bit too many and now my mouth's on fire

Since the incident this morning I've been taking brief naps throughout the day as a way to relax.

Everything's relatively back to normal, but the events from this morning occasionally creep back up in my mind and it sucks.

this has been a rough morning for me.

I just finished Fahrenheit: Indigo Prophecy Remastered and this photoshopped cover says it all

Oh no it's late and I've fallen into a rabbit hole of binge watching "Is It a Good Idea to Microwave This?" episodes

Okay, so I got to a point in this game where Lucas Kane is now hunted by the cops.

The result is a ridiculous quick time event fest where Lucas somehow becomes goddamn Neo, ninja kicks a few cops, dodges bullets and *backflips onto a subway train*.

It is so tonally inconsistent with the rest of the game that I literally could not stop laughing.
