The rush I get from only slightly outplaying my opponent in Champions Doubles Master Rank is CRIMINAL and should be studied. Did I read your Protect correctly one time AND managed to land Sleep Powder as a result? I am PUMPING MY FIST in my living room like it's the Olympics.
Rolled credits on Pokopia after the game came out just over 100 hours ago. Jesh and unnecessarily "finishing" Pokémon games far too quickly; name a better combo.
Now to build Gastrodon Palace.
Bluesky gets a bonus magenta photo of my wonderful, beautiful husband to celebrate our one-year anniversary. :3

omg pokopia is gonna ruin my life and i'm so excited
I just bought Factorio. You may not see me again for years.
The visceral, immediate way my jaw dropped. This looks phenomenal!
I haven't had a PC capable of running Street Fighter 6 at my parents' house, so I've not been able to play since July. I got a Switch 2 for Christmas, so I immediately got the setup to be able to play SF6 on that. I cannot express how happy I am to get to full-screen zone folks as JP again.
So pretty! Well done, you engineer(s) of joy, you.
You can't imagine the day I've had.

Today's mood: the lone person ice skating in the rain at Bryant Park.
Watching my household win their on-stream Rivals of Aether 2 matches from 500 miles away >>>>>>>
First listen of Life of a Showgirl completed, and I am very satisfied. I craved a return to livelier production and higher energy songs, and it was there in spades. Out of 12 songs, I think only 3 or 4 failed to make a strong impression, but that might be the consequence of a first listen.
It's, hilariously, a paired-mice Pokémon that, when it evolves into Maushold, gains one or two baby mice. It's very cute, competitively relevant for a couple funny reasons, and is one of the more annoying shiny hunts. The rare-color version of it swaps that tiny pale blue "clothing" for pale yellow.
I'm gonna spend my chemo recovery this week just hatching a bazillion Tandemaus eggs because I can't goddamn do this outbreak/sandwich horror story one more time. This is horrific.
Did I want a shiny Tandemaus the Anxious or Tandemaus the Grumpy? Of course. But it's just a mess.
I don't think I know the difference between Dokapon and Danganronpa, I cannot lie. I think I assumed they were both multi-player games that caused a lot of friendships to end, but now I'm suspecting this may not be the case.
It's odd waxing nostalgic about the golden era of Facebook, but today I am mourning the Events feature. It was unmatched, having one place to find what events were upcoming, what information had been made public, and which of my friends were going (or who wanted to and maybe would split costs).
Finally beat Oddsparks after spending just shy of 100 hours with it since its release a few months ago. It's a very charming marriage of Pikmin and Factorio, and it hooked me in a way that's hard to explain. Combat's weird, but nothing beats the feeling of perfectly automating something complex.
Spending Father's Day with my parents at the cute greasy spoon down the street from the house I grew up in. They did an amazing job raising me and my brother despite having us so young, and I respect them so much for that~
Me every time I spot an apostrophe on your steam overlays in the bracket round indications.
(Huge kudos to @bluerosetori.com for this severe photo from Combo Breaker!)
The way that my roommate and I sit in the living room with two notebooks with this game open. We have 80 hours at this point, it's absolutely wild.

I will be the thirtieth person to tell you this, but Split Fiction is phenomenal and you should play it with someone, remote or in-person. It's so stellar.
It's a touch too tight, he'll be okay. <3
We got married! ❤️ The Bluesky bonus fact is that @suq.bsky.social's ring is now stuck on his finger.
VERY satisfied I held off watching Severance (really mostly out of pure laziness) until Season 2 came out. I watched the first two episodes on a flight in early 2023; if I'd watched the full first season and experienced THAT season finale without the next season to jump into, I would be apoplectic.
Can't lie, I've been enjoying not worrying about social media after everything started going to hell on Twitter and Meta and wherever else. Don't mistake my absence for anything other than me focusing on me—I'm happy, I'm healthy, etc.
Hope y'all are doing well! <3
Nerf's hit the "arm rotor" already on stream, and I yelled across the apartment at the TV.
"Robot arms" is the one that always gets me
Smash Ultimate has been out for six years.
If you asked ten Ult commentators what ROB's side special is called, you'd get at least five different serious answers, and that irks me.
😅
We didn't lie!
