The hometown kid!
Nobody cares.

Pointed and laughed at some dude in a Cybertruck this morning. Felt good to start my day on the right foot.
You think people want to read your 63 character launch day review you probably fired out while sitting on the can? Get real.
My least favourite thing about Backloggd (or any game tracking site that supports it) is the user reviews. I don’t give a fuck what some random person on the internet thinks about the game I’m playing.
Every game should have some form of idle mode.
Cast n Chill already my GOTY.
Video games, backlogs, and time
I posted this on Bluesky recently: I legit don’t think I can play massive, 100-hour+ RPGs anymore. Mostly because of Life™ but also I can’t justify...

Fingers crossed it's the original.
Well now what do I do?
I legit don't think I can play massive, 100-hour+ RPGs anymore. Mostly because of Life™ but also I can't justify spending that much time on a single game when I can finish several smaller ones on my backlog in the same amount of time.
Insane that Google ever put AI summaries in front of actual users. I had a family member explain that driving laws were changing in Canada on July 1st, which is completely untrue, but you’d never know that based on what the summary says.
Also, most importantly, accessibility seems like a complete afterthought. It's difficult for me to read some elements because of the transparency and I stare at screens all day. I can't imagine how the average user will manage.
Apple were so preoccupied with whether or not they *could* excessively round the corners of every UI element, they didn't stop to think if they *should*. (They should not.)
iOS 26 is the first beta in years I’ve rolled back based mostly on the design. Maybe I’ll be more open to Liquid Glass when it’s consistently applied across most or all the apps I use but I’m not feeling it at this point.
You can keep your Mario Kart World, I’ll take Virtua Racing on the Saturn all day.
It increasingly feels like these dipshits live on an entirely different planet than the rest of us.
Looking forward to fucking my phone right up with a developer beta later today. #wwdc
Has anyone built a Goodreads alternative on #atproto yet?
Started playing Metaphor but then Zenless 2.0 came out so RIP.
Clutch opening for Motörhead.
Who was the best opening act you've seen live?
I’m well aware a lot of services and software have gotten inherently worse because executives need the line to go up. At the same time, I think by giving it a cute, funny name, in some ways, we’ve numbed ourselves to it all.
I completely forgot the Switch 2 was coming out this week. I don’t remember the last time I was this checked-out about a new console.
I hate the word “enshittification”. It’s so overused it’s lost all meaning at this point.
Three packs in.
Shut up about the sun.
Happy pride month! 🏳️🌈
A place I worked at years ago had “chicken parts” as a menu item in the cafeteria one day. I think about that a lot.
Just saw there’s an SIR Rotom in the new Destined Rivals set. I assumed we’d get some packs but now we *have* to.
Still struggling with what to really dive into game-wise. Might *finally* be time to crack open Metaphor.
As someone who is bad at all games and has no friends, I consider Nightreign a personal attack.
Dodger.
Puppy o'clock is nearly upon us.
I'm less likely to use your product or whatever if you have a link to a Twitter account on your site.
Ars leadership should be ashamed of themselves for publishing this trash.

I just want to cast n chill.
*Checks calendar*
This is great news. I’ve really enjoyed the unofficial translation of Love Bullet. The support for Inee and the series from the fanbase has been unreal.

This is “flying car” level fantasy that assumes LLMs can be trusted to do literally anything without supervision. Both these dudes are cooked.
We bought a puppy. 😬
One of the characters mentioned Deadfire by name and it completely went over my head. 😂
It’s not a spoiler but I played through the entirety of Avowed without realizing, from what I understand, it’s loosely connected to Pillars of Eternity.
Update: I bought a Steam Deck and I’m going to say it was for this.
Teslas are so cringe.
Who *doesn’t* have a USB drive full of game ideas to give to co-workers when they die?
Going to start putting "(formerly Twitter)" after everything.
I've been checked out on Arc (the browser) for a while, it is still in development or are they essentially winding it down?
How in the world, when you’re considering starting a podcast, does “true crime and comedy” seem like a good idea and not one that is deeply offensive?
Give us a Legend of Dragoon remake, you cowards.
I said no, but still.
Marvel, there are too many Spider-people.
Someone messaged me a week ago asking if I wanted to interview for a job there. 🙃

I added a light mode to my site and I don't hate it?
New impossible game: name ONE THING rich people haven’t ruined.
Stop glorifying rich people, they’re ruining literally *everything*.
Icons that are specifically designed with dark mode in mind look great but it feels like so many apps simply apply whatever effects Apple has to their existing icons and call it a day.
Most dark mode iOS icons look bad and feel like an afterthought.
