"We as developers and players need to push back against this bullsh*t just like we did with NFTs and crypto games and try in vain to do with predatory micro transactions, loot boxes and battle passes."

A bowl of spinach and chickpea stew, with a drizzle of olive oil and a couple of slices of buttered sourdough toast on the side.
Kenji posted a recipe for spinach and chickpea stew a few days back. Fantastic timing, sounded like just the recipe to try in preparation for the incoming blizzard. Turned out pretty great, really simple to make too. www.youtube.com/watch?v=1DWB...
I hit the button ✅😭🐸

Look, I was a little kid when we went through this last and I just wanted it to live in my mind as a horrible thing some evil reactionary adults did when I was growing up. I was fine with that simple understanding!
I did NOT ask to experience a re-enactment as an adult.
What the fuck is my country doing, man.
It’s not about drugs. If it was, Trump wouldn’t have pardoned one of the largest narco traffickers in the world last month.
It’s about oil and regime change.
And they need a trial now to pretend that it isn’t. Especially to distract from his sinking under Epstein and skyrocketing healthcare costs.
An administration driven by greed, cruelty, and frankly a sort of empty-hearted boredom. The death of innocents so they can beat their chests and line their already fat wallets.
Whatever comes next has to at least look like justice. We cannot just turn the page for the sake of one party’s comfort.

A screenshot of the Final Fantasy XIV item "Approved Grade 4 Skybuilders' Rock Salt". Flavor text: "But Mother, can we not break the salt rock into smaller chunks to save us all from having to lick the same piece? It seems awfully unhygienic." "No, my sweet prince, that would not be proper. Now lick the rock and put it back on the table." -Typical Ishgardian mealtime conversation
50/50 chance Ishgard brings eggnog to the exchange or this:

It's rare I go to theaters anymore, usually opting for home releases. I did go to see Chainsaw Man: The Reze Arc today and it was a blast. That entire second half was made better seeing it in a theater, and if you're at all interested in the movie I recommend going and giving it a watch.

Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 victory screen after one shotting the Chromatic Creation with ~33 million damage.
Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 victory screen of one shotting Simon, phase 1, with ~22 million damage.
Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 victory screen of two shotting Simon, phase 2, with ~53 million total damage.
Shout out to this weird fuckin' horse and some jerk named Simon who had the misfortune of running into an incredibly angry child that just finished eating the red paint.
Finally wrapped up Clair Obscur: Expedition 33 today. The entirety of act 2 all the way to the end of act 3 was a lot, especially the ending(s). I'm glad they let you break the combat in act 3, I was largely over it by then. Solid otherwise, but I think something more lighthearted is in store next.

Teddi got lots of practice playing catch tonight so now he's relaxing in his chair. #corgicrew
Cooking Majima: Flavors of Osaka
Throwing myself at jumping puzzles so long as the gestral with the saxaphone in the background keeps playing.
A ribeye steak vacuum sealed with thyme, rosemary, sage and a couple pads of butter.

1.2 lbs of ribeye is a lot, but tonight we celebrate.
