I am thankful that we have all decided that releasing demos is cool again. I was interested in Stellar Blade before, but now I am sold on it. I want to explore the world and learn the lore. The music is terrific. And while EVE has had certain design choices made, I am not complaining about them or think they are strictly “fan service”

@mikehaynes Damn. Sorry.
I used all my luck for this year on these pulls.

I would love to talk more about the difficulties and challenges of my day-to-day life, but I also feel it would be sharing too much.

As the primary daytime parent for a kid with PDA, I feel I have things to share that can help others. However, the parent side of me wants to respect my kid’s privacy and right to choose what is shared about them.

I am too run down to know how to find the balance.

Some days, parenting is your kid telling you that they want waffles, making waffles, and after giving them a plate of waffles, it isn't right.

“Dad, I wanted the flat waffles!”

Pancakes. They wanted pancakes.

The Springtime feeling of existential dread for the potential horrors of Summer.

Fires? Floods? Heat? Blackouts?
All of the above?

Beginning to think this isn’t the future I was promised as a kid.

We’ve reached the stage of streaming being cable where we need TV Guide listings to know where to watch anything.

The best way for me to not use your service is to ask me for a credit card before starting a free trial.

Finding I have a minimal amount to share now that I am not doing shameless self-promotion for a Twitch channel or YouTube video. Leaving the whole “content creator” thing shows me how much I showed up to talk about content creation primarily.

I am not that big of a fan of TikTok, but banning it seems like a fucking horrible precedent to establish

The Great Web looks like a good time, but the amount they would need to monetize it (in an already saturated market) for a console exclusive would suck all of the fun out of it. The gameplay loop also looks like it would get repetitive fast.

As tough as it is as players, I can understand the business decision to pull the plug. Not all ideas work.

In my latest video, I tell the story of visiting three natural history museums in Europe by train, and I get some help from Tier Zoo for some thoroughly enjoyable facts about dinosaurs.

And it all went really well! That is, until we tried to get to Germany. 😬

@notjustbikes It was an enjoyable video. Ended up watching it with my 7yo because they saw the dinosaur on the thumbnail, and now they want to do European train travel. I’ll take it as a win. Also, they laughed when your rage hit, “Oh, yeah, I expected him to be a swearer.”

Our friend, Council Michael Janz wearing a The War on Cars “toque” on CTV Edmonton is the best thing we’ve seen. That's some real political courage right there.

I just heard someone say in a YouTube video, “back in the nineteen hundreds,” referring to the 1990s.

I will now go find a hole to bury myself in now 💀

Gamifying spring cleaning seems to work to get the kid to help a bit. I am not looking to get them to be “all-in” on it with me, but a few daily quests are getting completed, meaning I am making progress on the project overall.

I forgot how nice it feels to play a video game without the guilt of thinking, “Should I be making a video instead?”

Right now, my kid only wants plushies for Christmas, and this is the most fun holiday shopping I have ever done.

Anya and Bond.
Pom Pom from Honkai: Star Rail.
Pochita.
Kirby, Waddle Dee, and Meta Knight.
Steve, Alex, and a Creeper.

I am already excited about present opening.

Well, my six-and-a-half-year-old watched the entire Star Rail Version 1.6 Special Program and is now planning team comps for Ruan Mei and Dr. Ratio. I love how much they love this game.
