Other bands have come and gone. But ABR has stayed in constant rotation for me since 2007. Can't wait for their new album.

Doing my bi-monthly check-in. Hi BlueSky.

Recently saw my favorite band, August Burns Red, for the first time in 10 years. Was good.

Been playing Minecraft a lot. Got a PS5 Pro, so Yotei is up next. Also trying to finish ZA.

Also collecting Pokemon TCG again. Finished Base and Jungle sets. 😍

Waterfront house. Bridge connected to the second floor and extending across the river. Multiple tiers of roofing. Forest aesthetic.

Bedroom design incorporating some individual elements that I found on the Google. Bed is raised, lots of flower adornments.

Dining room, complete with meal by candlelight.

Workin on a new house in my family's new Minecraft Realm. Usually build with step-by-step guides, trying to take what I've learned and freehand this one. Roofs are hard. 🥲

Niceeee! Hoping I'll get mine in the next day or two!

Haven't posted in a while. I got one of those physical app blockers to help curb my addiction of scrolling videos into the wee hours of the night.

And dammit it works lol

H2H is great. Will be great when SM shifts a little bit more focus to them (pun intended)

Oh dang you're right 😭

I know right?

At least we have @jiuloops.bsky.social

Football bad. Me sad.

Probably frosted strawberry or blueberry, but who is buying their second favorite? 😂

Is Rise framerate locked?

Great list. Love to see H1-Key on there, those girls are good.

My wife is delighted that you have multiple KARD songs on there too. 👍

Thanks for sharing!!

Same!

Good morning to everyone except for the Chicago Bears

Five years ago, I stood in a Taco Mac, palms to the heavens, screaming thanks to the sweet lord baby cheeses for us drafting Kyle Anthony Pitts Sr. with the number four overall pick in the NFL draft.

Tomorrow night, my Fantasy Football Championship rests in his hands. This is fate. God speed, Kyle.

It goes back to like 2001 lol. When I started playing Rainbow 6 and Rogue Spear on MSN's The Zone, I had to pick a username. It's all I could think of. Used it for everything ever since.

Explain your username:

In middle school, a friend and I invented a fictional, James-Bond-like universe to convince another friend that he was missing out on the "next big thing" after Goldeneye and Perfect Dark.

The titular character? Mr. Chun.

(Is it worth $25 tho asking for a friend)

I feel you man. Both of my kids got the flu right as I started my winter break from teaching. Not quite the rest time I envisioned.

Turns out it's a borked patch. After uninstalling the game data and declining the update, the game loads just fine.

Botzone is still fun as hell.

Honestly it's shocking how good this game still looks in 2025.

Fun fact... the last guide I wrote for IGN was this one. 😱

Probably gonna give the campaign a whirl for old time's sake.

After doing some digging, seems like there is an issue with the final 1.14 patch, maybe something with specific HDDs, etc.

I uninstalled the game data, declined the update, and was able to launch no issues on what I'm assuming is the 1.0 version of the game.

I love that you still do this. Hello Stranger is certified.

On subsequent attempts, it appears to be frozen? I can't access the XMB and have to do a hard reset, restore file systems, etc.

Killzone 3 cover art, featuring a Helghast soldier aiming down the sights of his smg.

Anyone played Killzone 3 recently?

I can't get my disc to load on my PS3. It's a pristine copy, disc is flawless and clean. But the game never loads, just hangs on a black screen forever.

I get one little loading icon in the top left at first, then nothing. Disc spins like a cat 5 hurricane.

I have a love/hate relationship with that game, but it was bonkers to play on the DS back in the day.

Sending love to you and your family. 🙏

Big is great. One of my favorite Tom Hanks movies.

App is randomly working again, no longer asking for my birthday. Shame it was broken during the game awards, I wanted to talk shit. 😂
