My ★★★★ review of Castlevania: Harmony of Dissonance (2002) on @backloggd.com : I played this immediately after finishing Castlevania: Circle of the moon. Even though it came out a year after that game, visually it felt like the older game, both in how the ... bckl.gg/qQyI
Speaking of Scott Adams dying... If you look closely at the pictures I posted of my bass stickers, bsky.app/profile/ques... you can see the shadow of some dilbert stickers I put on in the 90's but removed when I found out he was nuts. people.com/scott-adams-... #dilbert

Cleaned and re-strung my bass for the first time in years! I also added some @enerjax.bsky.social and @othatsraspberry.com stickers.
Time to start re-learning RPG bass-lines.

I made a joke in my main Discord server about DOOM E1M1 being in a major key and @abigbagofkeys.sickonedude.com actually made it. Jesus fucking Christ listen to this hahahaha
Does anyone have a recommendation for a custom t-shirt site that has a pretty quick turn-around, but also decent quality?
Illustration: a portrait of Rieko Kodama with some of the games she has worked on. The dominant colors are yellow, purple and red. Counterclockwise from top left: Rieko Kodama, Alis and Lutz from Phantasy Star, Sonic in a maze, Alex Kidd and his motorbike next to Flicky on a waterfront pier, Joe Musashi and his dog near the Statue of Liberty facing a skyline, the three playable characters from Golden Axe seen from behind on the edge of a cliff, and one of the flying ships from Skies of Arcadia.
I wrote a long article about Rieko Kodama, her career at Sega, the evolution of her company, the games she worked on (including some canceled games and/or games for which she is not credited), the status of women and working conditions in the video game industry, etc.

Jealous! I mean, they wouldn't fit on my massive head and ears. But my kids could rock them!

Totally unrelated to any news I received last week, news I received yesterday, or the fallout of the former, Chappell Roan's "My Kink is Karma" keeps bouncing around in my head...

Just irrevocably lost tons of stuff in No Man's Sky because I died multiple times after falling asleep. Normally, I'd go to an earlier save non autosave, but this game crashes so damn much that I can't. Loaded up after a PC crash and it saved over my save. :/ I think I am done with this game.
Started a new workout regime I am calling "The Longest Walk". The goal is to walk a minimum of 1 continuous hour while listening to an audio book about a journey, or a walk. First up: @stephenking.bsky.social's "The Long Walk". My short legs gotta work up to the 'minimum walking pace of 4 mph'!

I feel sick reading that. 🤢
You savage.
YYYY-MM-DD is the only correct path. I won't die on this hill, I will kill everyone who tries to climb up it and take me!!
It is such a perfect Idea! Executed beautifully, as usual. 🔫
A very Chrono Summer. Picture of an Enerjax print that shows the playable characters from Chrono Trigger having a beach day.
I am always excited when a new @enerjax.bsky.social print comes in, but the fact that this one came from a recommendation I made (and Enerjax went wild with) is pretty great!
I really love Yuzo Koshiro's sound, and they just released a new soundtrack today for Earthion (which also comes out today)!

My son just nonchalantly taking two album cover worthy photos in the same day...
