every once in a while I wonder how the heck others get the drive to like, watch a movie or listen to an album or something like that

it always seems to take me a while lately and it's kinda frustrating

game shows, man

gonna embrace being a wolf more because screw it, I'm getting to that stage in life where I need to stop worrying about being judged

awoo

saw a video of ProZD drinking Hot Dr Pepper, something I saw making the rounds a while back

I noticed most of them use current-day Dr Pepper, which probably gives a different taste compared to the 60s

makes me wonder if anyone's tried doing the same idea but with Real Sugar Dr Pepper...

Quake Brutalist Jam III affirms my belief that Quake is one of the best games of all time

my smartwatch congratulates me for walking 100 steps when in reality I wasn't walking, I was doing something else

and this is why I have trust issues with modern technology

I remember the times when I was into Dilbert. Even liked that cartoon adaptation they did.

With Scott Adams' fall from grace and his death today, Dilbert will get cast off into the land of comic strip obscurity, to be something people remember existing and that's it

It's never gonna be remembered fondly like a Calvin & Hobbes, it's never gonna get reran like a Peanuts, it's not even gonna get a modern reboot like Nancy.

It'll be a Jeopardy clue nobody gets right in 5 years.

New on the Secret Area: I catch up on Some Stuff I Bought for the rest of 2025.

Warning: Lots of talk about local Oregon stuff and Tom Wilson (Biff Tannen from Back to the Future) within.

Shares and comments appreciated, as always.

now that I've had some coffe, I'm gonna catch up on some AGDQ runs and maybe do a bit of writing for a blog post I probably should've done a few weeks earlier, but eh

motivation is in flux these days

honestly half-tempted to get back on the stream train

I know it's been years since I last streamed, but I got an HDMI capture device for Christmas and just wanna play a bunch of dumb 360/PS3/Wii stuff

even if it's just to an audience of 3

wow, my blog has been running for 14 years, full of stuff

dang

was curious of the origin of the Mandrill Maze music track, and Shazam found it easily: It's an Omnimusic track!

now I'm gonna dance to this like a goober
